* Latest ! The new Season of Campus Superstar is back once again ! The popular singing competition that shot young singing talents such as Huang Zhiyang , Teresa Tseng , Keely and Shawn Tok to instant fame and popularity is back for a brand New third Season !
After the success of the first two Seasons in 2006 & 2007 , the third Season of Campus Superstar competition is scheduled to hit our TV Screens as early as January next year with the Auditions expected to be held in early November !
Viewers can expect lots of refreshing sweeping changes being made in the brand New Season of Campus Superstar from the hosts as well as to it's competition format !
For a start , the hosts for this brand new Season of CSS will be Pornsak and current hot rising star actress - Felicia Chin . This will also be Felicia Chin's first time hosting a LIVE show ! Also , as for the competition proper , it is known that the contestants will no longer be separated in two different groups - ( boys and girls groups respectively ) and required to compete in their own groups anymore ! It will be slightly different this time round .
Also, unlike previous Seasons of Campus Superstar where the Auditions were held outdoors in popular shopping centres such as Bishan Junction 8 or Toa Payoh HDB Hub , this year , all the Auditions will be held at Mediacorp Studios itself !
On this note , according to Mr Paul Chan ( MediaCorp TV's vice-president of branding and promotions ) , confirmed this news on his Blog :
Also , as part of Channel U's efforts to promote the New Season Competition proper which begins on 5 January 2009 , YOGA Lin You Jia of Taiwan's popular Talent Search Show - ' Millionstar ' fame has been chosen as the official ambassdor for Campus Superstar 3 !
As an ambassor of Campus Superstar 3 , he will also appear as a Special Guest to perform during the Grand Final Night to be held on Sunday , 12 April 2009 !
* Campus Superstar 3 Premieres on Every Mondays - starting 5 January 2009 onwards LIVE on Channel U at 8pm ! Result Show LIVE on Channel U later on the same night at 11.30pm ! *
* CSS 3 Grand Final To be Held on Sunday , 12 April 2008 LIVE on Channel U at 7.30pm ! *
" CSS3 Audition will be held on 8th and 9th of November in MediaCorp . The advantage of this is that all participants can go into separate rooms to audition (no more outdoor stage like in Toa Payoh HDB Hub where you have to be fair and all must audition waiting in queue to sing on stage) . At MediaCorp , it will speed up the process as we can have many rooms with many panel of judges . No more long waiting ... "
The Auditions will begin as early as on the second week of November 2008 - on the weekend of 8 November 2008 & 9 November 2008 ! Secondary School , JC & ITE students are welcome to take part and Contestants are to appear in their school uniforms for the Auditions !
