JSG: Float or Sink?
It was Sunday morning when I turned to the entertainment section of the Chinese newspaper. Knowing about the JSG award ceremony taken place last night, I curiously look at the award list. Seriously, my first reaction was…I laughed. The award list was like a list of EEG artist list. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
Let’s see…
Joey Yung- 7 awards
Leo Ku- 3 awards
Raymond Lam- 2.5 awards
Charlene Choi- 2 awards
Sherman Chung- 2 awards
William Chan- 1 awards
Vincy Chan- 1 awards (2 duets)
(.5 means a duet)
Wow…TVB are not even trying to cover up that they are being obvious…but what can you do? It’s TVB. If they favor you, you can be the top over night…if not, you better have another door waiting for you. Anyway, I can’t comment much on the TVB and ‘Big 4’ company conflicts because…well, I can care less. Everyday I look at the news and it is like watching a soap opera, I can’t wait to see what happens next. LOL! (I know I am being mean.) I think it is known that the HK music industry is on a downhill stream because of the lack of talents and varieties. Ever since Joey, Hacken, and Eason got the same awards years after years, I lost completely interest in JSG. It’s like watching Christmas Carol where you know the plot and the outcome. No surprise! You know the awards would go to either Joey or Miriam and Eason or Hacken. Boring! Like my mother keep saying…Where is the competition! What would happen to the next generation???
Okay, back to the award, come on! Honestly, you know something is just not fair in life. JSG is one of them. I am not blaming them or anything…come on! Is any award ceremony fair? Honestly? If push comes to shovel, they will respect the public opinion only…and I mean ONLY if it will cause a riot. (A good example is Wayne Lai.) So…this award list is not completely unexpected because there is really no way they are giving it to the artists they are boycotting against. In this case, Hacken, Eason, and Hins suffer great losses. However, when someone loses, someone benefit. In this case, it will have to be Joey, Leo, Raymond and Sherman. Seven awards is a very high number for awards in JSG and Leo may have some competition with other male singer for the Best male singer award. Yet, the most shocking moment of the entire show have to be Raymond getting the Asian Pacific Award. Although I personally think he deserve this award with his concert/music tour around Asia and his popularity, he won’t have gotten the award if it wasn’t the incident with TVB & Big 4. I am not sure how this would affect Raymond because it isn’t his fault. All he can do now is to prove to those that doubted him that he deserves it. Just like how he was to have his first concert, people doubted him but after concerts and concerts, he improved tremendously proving many people wrong. I hope in this scenario, he would make them swallow their tongue! LOL!
Lastly, I want to go back to my title of this post. JSG: Float or Sink? After 2009 awards ceremony, either JSG would lose it prestigious as one of the big awards in anticipation from the public or it will sustain its name until next years…Sadly, it seems like the first holds true…
