COMMERCIAL Radio II will present the New Idols Quality Show featuring eight promising stars in the music industry.
They are Linda Wong Hing-ping, Liz Kong Hei-man, Kevin Cheng Ka-wing, Gigi Lai Chi, Steven Ma Chun-wai, Ekin Cheng, Ellen Chan Nga-lun and Julian Cheung Chi-lam.
The show is aimed at recognising the efforts of new artistes.
''This can be considered a stepping stone for the new artistes. It will give them a chance to become megastars,'' said Commercial Radio II programme director Thomas Chow Loy-mow.
The eight artistes will compete in three areas - singing, dancing and displaying their star charisma - which will account for 50 per cent, 30 per cent and 20 per cent of the total score, respectively.
A panel of 40 judges, comprising columnists, composers, producers, promoters, lyricists, management and representatives from the various electronic media, will decide on who the most brilliant new idol is, based on their 12-minute performances with a liveband in front of an audience of 8,000.
