My Bro Is A STAR!!!

My younger brother Jackson got into the Top 20 positions for Singapore's Star Search 2007 [才华横溢出新秀2007].

He is 1 of the 11 Singaporeans who got into the Top 20 positions out of 1500 applicants from Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan & China.

Way to go Jackson!!! *woOO hOoo OOoo~*


I've known about this for a month or so by now, but had promised Jackson I mustn't tell anyone (including my dear girlfriends which resulted in Senorita-E's spiteful comments on her blog here) till the official announcement in the media on 20th July 07.
Jackson! 二姐我,够讲义气了吧!(^_^)v

Anyhoo... I'm so glad I can finally spill the beans! Calling out to all relatives, friends & pals in Singapore, Australia, Thailand, Japan, UK, US, North Africa & wherever you are! Please give your support to Jackson ok! >.<

Visit here to discuss about Jackson on the MediaCorp forum.

In English
The Almost-A-Chippendale
Name: Tan Sia Chong Jackson
From: Singapore
Looks like: Taiwanese actor/singer/host Zhang Shanwei
Age: 23Occupation: Student at Singapore Management University, Economics
Iron Man factor: Timing for his second Osim triathlon (1.5km swim; 10km run; 40km biking) in 2005 was two hours and 35 minutes and was ranked 21 out of 63 participants.

Jackson would be great prancing around in children programmes like his Taiwanese half if it wasn’t for his hulking V-shape build, no doubt a trophy from his participation in triathlons. In an Ally McBeal moment, I could almost see the buttons of his shirt giving up its valiant struggle to keep his tanned chest covered and doing a Chippendale in front of me. Yay!

翻版 张耀扬
陈侠中 Tan Sia Chong Jackson
23岁 大学毕业 来自新加坡

陈侠中身高181公分,身材魁梧、肤色黝黑,是最壮最man的参赛者。乍看之下,发现他长得和香港型男张耀扬很像。他自2004年开始参加三项铁人赛、脚踏车比赛。 陈侠中说自己非常向往娱乐圈光芒四射的日子,曾经有星探邀他当模特儿,他拒绝了,理由是:那个世界太“奢华”了。陈侠中外型非常“熟男”,好在他的个性随和,容易融入大伙话题,不至于显得格格不入。

It's a pity SOMETHING & I won't be able to head back to Singapore to support Jackson. But we'll definitely be following the progress closely on the media.


弟弟,我们永远支持你!!!

加油! 加油! 加油!
