Singapore Idol is on right now, and quite frankly, it's excruciating. It gets even more painful when those who are supposedly good aren't actually. It is, however, above-average entertainment, in a gothic sort of fashion, where you derive enjoyment from seeing people so incredibly bad it makes your hair stand, get up, grow legs and jump off my body. In the long run however, this probably leads to balding, but hey, I'm an arts student for a reason.
Another point to note is that despite there being an apparent Chinese majority at the audition, the ones who got in are at most half chinese. If anything, the chinese people are the ones being made fun of half the time. Maybe this says something about chinese people and singing. Maybe.
Okay, screw that, they just showed the guy holding the note for like forever. Not to mention they're making a game out of this now. "Spot the fake model"? This is getting more and more degrading yet entertaining by the minute.

I really should be doing my work right now. Ah yes, the powers of the idiot box.
