The Road to Star Awards 2017

[edit]

As part of the "3+1" format introduced exclusively this year, The Road to Star Awards 2017 is a series of three one-hour live-broadcast prelude shows leading up to the main presentation (on 16 April) itself, premiering on 26 March. Each one of the three episodes focuses on one of the award categories with invited artistes, mostly nominees, usually come to discuss the award ceremony and predicted their favorites for the acting categories. The end of each episode also reveal the current standing for the Top 10 Most Favorite Artistes award, and the bottom four artistes (per each category) at the close of the third episode were eliminated from running of the award, a first in Star Awards history.

Winners are listed first, highlighted in boldface.

Episode 1 – Drama (红星大奖 影聚响宴 第一场)

[edit]

The theme for Show 1 focuses on drama, and artistes – mainly the performance category nominees, were invited to the preludes and asked to select their favourites for the acting categories. Andie Chen was the artistes' choice for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, while Zoe Tay and Paige Chua were the picks for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, respectively.

^3 This award is a special achievement award given out to artiste(s) who have achieved a maximum of 10 popularity awards over 10 years. Top 10 winning years all three of recipients were awarded are highlighted in boldface, while years with only one recipient winning are highlighted in italics. The award will not be presented in 2018, as there are no recipients with ten Top 10 Most Popular Male or Female Artistes award wins to allow the award to be presented that year.

[edit]

This year's Top 10 Most Popular Artistes awards sees the number of nominees expanded by eight – four per gender – to 48, the second time to expand such number since 2011 (which had 21). As usual, viewers voted for their favourite artiste through telepoll and online voting (each weighing 50% of the results). At the end of the preludes, the top 20 artistes for each gender advanced to the main presentation to vie for the Top 10 awards. Voting for the awards opened at noon on 4 March and ended at 8:30 pm on 16 April.

The nominees are listed in telepoll line order. The results of the Top 10 awards are not in any rank order.

Award Information

[edit]

The 2017 show announced that the format will feature a "3+1" format, with broadcast of three prelude episodes focusing mostly on technical awards and discussions prior to the actual ceremony, thus making it the first show since 2009 to have one main ceremony.[2] While technical awards are presented during the lead-up shows, the backstage awards (Best Set Design, Best Cameraman and Best Editing) and the Rocket Award were neither mentioned nor awarded for unknown reasons. The Best News Story and Best Current Affairs Story were presented for the last time this ceremony, ending a 17-year tradition where News and Current Affairs awards are presented in the awards since its inception in 2000 (the Best News Presenter and Best Current Affairs Presenter had last presented in 2013 and had not presented since then despite Channel 8 News & Current Affairs had more than ten nominations for the categories).

Owing to Jeanette Aw's dominance in viewer-based awards,[3] voting-based awards had been reworked during the ceremony, whereas online voting are now incorporated along with the Top 10 Most Favourite Artistes, and had its other categories removed until its reappearance in 2022. The Top 10 had also expanded its number of nominations to 24 for the first time since 2011 (with 21 nominations), with intermediate eliminations for the first time ever after the third prelude show ended (however, 2000 was the first time where a nomination, Erica Lee, was removed during the voting period).

With the Infocomm Media Development Authority's revamp of its measurement of viewership, as well as the introduction of infomercials in prime-time programming (as was first seen in The Truth Seekers and Tanglin), both the Top Rated Variety Programme and Top Rated Drama Serial awards were also removed.[4][5]

Consecutive and records in award categories, first in Top 10

Star Awards 2018 nominations

[edit]

The 2017 ceremony won the Best Variety Producer in the ceremony next year. However, due to the absence of the Best Variety Special category for the first time since 2000, Star Awards ended its 11-show streak of being nominated since the 2006 ceremony.
