[ former contestants from season 1]
The theme for this year is ‘Fantasy world’. Superstars is a reality show where they recruit D-list stars, have them live together, put them into groups each week, and train them to do musical numbers for weekly shows. It reminds me of dancing with the stars but not really. It’s a more flashy show, they don’t have trained professionals helping them out on stage, and the style is more like a cabaret show. Let me tell, the show is colorful.
The contestants are competing for a truckload of money. Last year, ‘Gof Akara Amarttayakul won. He took home 10 million baht (286,956.40 USD) in cash and other prizes. In total, he won 17 million baht (487,825.8749 USD). Yes, a whole lot of “Do-Ri-Me”. The last standing 3 finalist don’t leave empty-handed either. Fluke, Tak Bongkot, and Jik Naowarat, last years losing finalist, took home prizes worth more than 2 million baht (57,391.2794 USD). Not too shabby.
Last year there were 14 contestants. This year, there are only 10. Superstars will air every Saturday nights at 9:30pm on Modern 9 starting September 26, 2009. You can check out their website here.
The new contestants:
Film and lakorn actor, Oil Thana. I don’t consider him a D-lister. What is he doing on this show?
Tata Young’s Ex, Prem Busarakamwong.
Lydia’s boyfriend Matthew Deane. When he does his signature stare, the guy can give you the chills. Seriously, he freaks me out.
From the movie “Handle Me with Care”, ‘Kratae’ Supaksorn Chaimongkol.
Nong Toom (real name:Parinya Kiatbusaba or Parinya Charoenphol). She is a katoey Muay Thai boxer. The movie “Beautiful Boxer” was based on her life.
RS singer and actress Nathalie Davis. She has a minor role in “Jai Rao (Cracked Heart)” as Ken’s adopted younger sister.
Rapper, actor, and model Nicky “The Stick” Sura Theerakol.
The last role I remember her in was in “Badarn Jai (The Nether Minds)” with Aum Atichart and Margie Rasee. It’s “Ming” Chalisa Boonkrongsub.
Ch3 pra’ek Aon Sarawut
Actress Mamee Nakapapa, I’m not too familiar with her work.
My friend recommended I may like this blog. He was completely spot on. This post actually made my day. You can’t imagine just how much time I had spent for this info! Thanks!
wow!!!! i love this picha alot and Oil it here too and he look kute……
Is this show available by download anywhere? TIA
WHAT why is Oil on here? He is definitely not a D-liseted actor… He is like one of the best there is…
Oil didn’t move to CH3. he’s a FREE AGENT!!! anyway, what is he doing in this show — .. This show seem to be on the NOTORIOUS ppl Lol .. not the d-list ppl .. Quite a few old singers too. Whatever it is. i’m watching for OIL ^^ i want him in good drama !!!!
Oil may have been out of the news and spotlight the past year of so since he moved to Ch.3, but he still definitely is NOT a D-list actor! I don’t think Natalie Davis or Aon Sarawut are D-list either. However, I am so watching this season since all 3 of them are in it!
thanks lovely!!
wow Oil is in here, well I hope prem get out in the first week
