Hong Kong TVB artistes in Singapore for awards ceremony

Mark your calendars for August 18, because a bevy of Hong Kong TVB stars will be making an appearance in Singapore for this year’s Starhub TVB Awards.

This year is the third year that Starhub will be hosting the TVB awards in Singapore, and it’s also VV Drama’s (Starhub TV Channel 855) 20th anniversary, which could mean a bigger and more exciting event with more celebrity appearances than the previous two years.

Celebrities that will show up for the awards show include names like Kevin Cheng, Moses Chan, Kenneth Ma, Wayne Lai, Myolie Wu, Linda Chung, Kate Tsui, Tavia Yeung and more.

Seeing these celebrities in the flesh is exciting enough, but guests at the awards ceremony will get to watch legendary trio Grasshopper bust out their famed moves and well-loved tunes, as well as catch local singing talents Cai Ai Jia and the seven remaining finalists from Sunsilk Academy Fantasia perform live.

A total of 19 awards will be given out at the awards ceremony, of which nine are audience-favourites categories, with awards given out to the celebrities who have garnered the highest votes.
