Astro Star Quest (ASQ) 2015 returns for the 19th year to continue to fulfill young Malaysians’ dream and passion for music. For the first time this year, the competition has extended the age limit until 28 years old besides the usual requirements such as being good at singing, dancing, and having on stage charisma to compete with other Malaysians.
In addition, a panel of notable and highly influential personalities in the Chinese music industry from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia will reprise their role as the judges and train the pool of contestants throughout the competition until the top five finalists. With a custom made song for each finalist, the top 5 will be given a first-hand mentorship to a successful music career and shot to stardom.
The online audition for Astro Star Quest allows hopeful contestants to submit a 90- second video clip of their best performance including a short introduction of themselves via the ASQ official website (http://asq.astro.com.my) by 5th of April 2015. As this is a one-time entry, participants have only one shot to impress the judges. The best 40 contestants will be shortlisted by professional judges and they will then have to bring their own selection of music for the second round of audition to kick start Astro Star Quest 2015.
ASQ is now in its 19th year and strives to be a platform that discovers new talents here in Malaysia while at the same time aiming to become one of the most popular Chinese Singing Competition.
