Initial Telecast
Written by Blogtopia on 7:40 AMInitial telecast is set on December 15 to 16, 2007 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Indonesia's largest TV station, RCTI (which also hosts Indonesian Idol), will be the main TV station with the competition being broadcast live in the participating countries.
It will be hosted by Amelia Natasha and Daniel Mananta, both from Indonesian Idol.
The Performance Night of Asian Idol was taped last December 12 in Arena Pekan Raya Jakarta. This is to settle time zone differences as well as telecast dates. For instance, viewers in Vietnam will get to watch the show a day ahead.
The Idols are up against each others, now they are competing not for themselves but for their country and fans back home. Pressure is high as some idols sung in their own language, risking the thought that not everyone can understand or ever heard their song.
Two idols are said to be suffering from colds, Malaysian Idol Jaclyn Victor and Philippine Idol Mau Marcelo. Their was suppose to be a seventh idol from Kazakhstan, unfortunately they failed to send their representative. So they are down to six idols, Although one may wonder why there are only six idols, are there no idols for China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and the other countries in Asia? Hopefully we'll see them on the next Asian Idol.
