Setting up the stage
I am not going to type too much text as I am very tired… really need to get more rest. Nonetheless, I am anxious to share with everyone the photos I took at the Singapore Entertainment Awards 2009 Celebration Party, so here goes.
I was stationed at the artistes’ holding tent just beside the stage – meaning I have excellent access to the red carpet, the stage and even backstage with the celebrities. However, as I have to work also, I can only sneak in a few pictures here and there.
For more news and updates about the Singapore Entertainments Awards, you can visit www.omy.sg or the official awards website; listen to Radio 1003; buy the next copy of UWeekly magazine and of course; grab a copy of the evening paper, Lianhe Wanbao. For behind-the-scene photos taken on Friday, a day before the celebration party, you can check out my blog entry yesterday.
If you were there at the awards party, you may also want to share your photos/videos with everyone HERE on omy.sg – the best three entries will get to win Show Luo’s latest CD and poster.
Enough from me already… let’s proceed to the pictures!
