Classical Song Singers Along with Astro
Star Quest Finalist and Miss Astro Finalist For a “Family” Trip Around
Malaysia!
19th July 2014, Kuala Lumpur –
Following
the success of travel programme “背包Go
Cuti”, a brand new concept of this programme titled “全家Go Cuti” is
coming soon. It is featuring a “family” of hosts consisting of last year “经典名曲歌唱大赛” finalists 钟丽珍
and
庄盛, last
year “Astro 新秀大赛” Rax王郑浚仁
&
Miss Astro Chinese International Pageant
finalist, Fancy Goh吴胤婷.
These
four hosts are not just new to the series, they are also “菜鸟”(rookie) in hosting a show. All
of them have their own unique characteristic. 钟丽珍is
friendly, 庄盛 is
full of sense of humor, Rax王郑浚仁
is
energetic while Fancy is sweet. This
combination will surely bring a lot of surprises to the audiences.
Artistes shared experience regarding
being the hosts for the show!
During
the interview, 丽珍 said
that she occasionally would worry about her children at home when she was away
for the filming. 庄盛
on
the other hand said that it is finally time for him to become a host. He
jokingly said that his singing is deteriorating and it’s time for him to have
other career, which is in hosting. (Laughter) He said that he is still learning
and he usually will use his sense of humor to conceal his fear in hosting.
New Challenges for Fancy and Rax!
Fancy stated that it can be
quite challenging for her because the experience is so much different from the
time when she was competing in Miss
Astro Chinese. As a host, she needs to speak more than ever and she needs
to memorize a lot of script and travelling info.
Rax also mentioned that
hosting experience is so much different from the time when he was interviewed
in Astro Star Quest. He can speak
whatever he wants during the interview last time. However, being a host, he
needs to ensure the words he mentioned are relevant and appropriate.
Sharing of the most memorable moments
during the filming of the show!
For丽珍, her
most memorable moment was when she was requested to eat insect and hold snake.
She said that she was salivating a lot not due to hunger but due to fear. To
overcome her fear, she didn’t really taste the insect much and she just
swallowed it.
庄盛’s most
memorable moment was during their film shooting at a cave tunnel. It was dark
in there and only water drops sound can be heard during that time. However, he
was not afraid of going through the tunnel. He said that it was very peaceful
in there and that place is very suitable for meditation.
As
for Fancy, her most memorable moment
was when they were brought to interact with elephants. They even have the
chance to bathe the baby elephants.
Rax’s most memorable moment
was when they went to Terengganu to witness the process of turtle laying eggs.
It was a very touching moment. He revealed that 丽珍 was
crying when they were informed that those baby turtles which were hatched might
have very low survival rate when they return to the sea.
Interaction between the hosts exposed!
All
the four hosts have exposed some of the interaction experience between themselves
during the filming process. They all mentioned that 庄盛 is
the most hilarious one among them. Occasionally庄盛 will
throw out a lot of funny ideas but not all of them were able to grasp it
straight away. They also exposed that丽珍 was
the NG queen among them because she doesn’t know how to read Mandarin and will
make some funny pronunciation occasionally.
The
hosts said that it was a very enjoyable experience and they ate a lot too. The
trailer of the show was then showed during the press conference.
Astro Family Go Cuti “全家Go
Cuti” is a travelling programme which is based on the concept
of family travelling. Thus, the production team has featured hosts from different
ages and gender to cover the audiences from different categories. All of the
hosts will be interacting with each other like how a family would. Plus, the
programme is going to bring the audience to explore and discover more about
travelling places in Malaysia. The travelling spots featured in the show
include islands, theme parks, recreational park, food travelling, historical
places and etc.
Worth-mentioning
is, the theme song for the TV programme Astro
Family Go Cuti “全家Go Cuti” is
sang by the hosts themselves.
Astro Family Go Cuti “全家Go
Cuti” will be aired from 20th
July 2014 onwards, every Sunday,
8pm through Astro AEC (CH 301) and Astro
全佳HD (CH 308).
