“If you drop your pants, you might become famous!”

Woah! Did a Hong Kong Category III director approach Project SuperStar contestant Sugianto to do a porno film???

Drop your pants and become famous? What a scintillating piece of advice to give a young singing talent, huh! But before you go ‘tsking’ and shaking your head, don't worry, it's not something that won't pass through the strictest censor.

Sugi had dressed in a hip-hop style for last night's Project SuperStar Male Quarter-Finals 1 but something was still amiss. So judge Roy Li Feihui suggested that he wear his pants one or two sizes bigger for that street look. "Wear a belt and your pants won't fall off, don't worry. In fact, if you drop your pants, you might even become famous," Roy said with a straight face.

And good ol' Sugi responded with a priceless stunned and frozen look. This judge is doubtlessly a man with a wicked sense of humour as Sugi isn’t the only guy to receive such constructive advice last night.

Darryl Yong Tze Wen

His next ‘victim’: Darryl Yong Tze Wen. The lean and muscular Darryl sure knew how to play on his best assets when he wore a rugged sleeveless shirt that highlighted his bronzed skin and firm biceps. Singing the ballad Ai Wo Bie Zou, he gazed sexily into the camera, causing heart palpitations in many a female heart. But choosing the right song is just as important, as judge Roy told Darryl, “The way you are dressed tonight, I think it’s more apt if you sing Tuo Diao (Take It Off)!” referring to Alex Toh’s song where he danced out a strip-show while singing.

Apart from these wacky moments gladly provided by Roy, the night was a very tense one for the six male contestants – Sugianto, Darryl, Hong Junyang, Leon Lim Yu Zhi, Jason Tan Kok Khian and Lim Wei Lian. Two of them will be voted out at the Results show tonight at 11.30pm, together with another two female contestants whose performances will be broadcast earlier at 8.30pm tonight.
