Singapore Idol

I got this from a friend of mine who went for the Singapore Idol auditions.

He heard me complaining why it was called Singapore Idol and not Singaporean Idol, and when he was at the auditions, he actually asked the Mediacorp people there. Their answer was because it is opened to everyone who stays in Singapore, including PRs, and therefore it was called Singapore Idol and not Singaporean Idol. There, sort of 'official' explanation.

For your information, my friend got through the first round into the second round of auditions.
