I watched the Star Awards entertainment last night on telly. I think many of my friends really were shocked to learn that Joanne Peh came out as the winner of the Best Actress in The Little Nyonya. Many of them had thought Jeanette Aw would be the one getting this award. I beg to differ. I think Joanne Peh deserves this award. She herself had a pleasant surprise last night! Congrats, Joanne Peh!
Yes, Jeanette Aw did a good job in this show. But watching her in many of the other shows for the past years, she did not really get many dramatic roles to play. And because she always played the good girl next door, the only effort in The Little Nyonya was for her to talk less here and be less 'Manja'. But she did good in her roles, except I find her role did not really let her shine as much as Joanne. For Joanne, her role was more dramatic as a matter of fact. And having watched many shows, she really is an all rounder. Here she is demure and sweet but she did play up the dramatic roles when she was tortured and abused. I think this is the edge where she probably won by more than an inch.
So, the Best Supporting Actress went to Xiang Yun (who played Yue Niang's granny) and Ng Hui (who played Ah Tao). Ng Hui has never been in my favourite list of actress for the past years because of the roles she played but this show really showed off her strength in acting. And she is now in my A list. Xiang Yun is such a popular actress who have really shown and maintained her progress as years go by.
Surprisingly, this year there isn't much for our Ta Jie - Zoe. Guess motherhood has brought her to concentrate more of her family and kids than in our small screen.
A little lukewarm, this year's Star Awards, dunno why. Apart from the show The Little Nyonya and By My Side (which won Chen Han Wei for Best Actor).
I am now waiting for the drama - The Ultimatum starring Zoe Tay and Fann Wong which will debut in May 27, 9pm. Can't Wait!! It's been a long time I get to watch Zoe and Fann acting together! Fann getting married and Zoe, mom of two kids!

hahahah u so funny.. must find out ler... i prefer Joanne Peh than Jeanette (plays Yue Niang) wor. but first time see both i don't like. they both come out same time one. Joanne Peh must take time to get to her and many roles she play one. Sg drama only the past two years one i see only realize she is a versatile actress. But for Jeanette, i don't like her very por por ma ma attitude one. Every show very 'manja' one... hahahaha Anyway in the show i only like 715, you know who ah? the male actor who also act in 881 one and many other shows in sg drama...hahahaha sorry ah.. i like male actors more than female ones.. heehee
So nice you got time to follow all those Singapore movies. I dont have a chance even to sit down for a decent meal.
joanne peh is hopeless. since she got degree in journalism, she better be journalist than actress. she "boliao", her face not likable leh.
at michelle and shaun's wedding, she combs her hair back..she looks like a horse. her lower jaw too long and juts out too much. her smile show too much teeth. all i see is her oversized teeth! puke!!
Joanne Peh is definately one of best actresses in Singapore. Love to see her electrifying smile and awesome personality. Check out some beautiful scans of Joanne Peh.
