Kevin Henry Xu Feng Biography & Facts

Singer 2018 is the sixth season of the Chinese television series Singer, a rebranded version of I Am a Singer that aired on Hunan Television. It is produced by Hong Tao, and its music director is Hong Kong senior musician Kubert Leung. The first episode was recorded in the Hunan Broadcasting System Radio and Television Center, Changsha, Hunan on December 28, 2017 and premiered on January 12, 2018 and ended on April 20, 2018. For the first time this series, YouTube provided English captions for the show. On April 13, 2018, British singer Jessie J was declared winner of Singer 2018, and was the first non-Chinese and foreign singer to win I Am a Singer. Chinese singers Hua Chenyu and Wang Feng were placed second and third, respectively. Competition rules As like the previous seasons of I Am a Singer and Singer 2017, Singer 2018 was divided into four rounds of three stages, and seven singers performed for a 500-member audience each week. Similar to the previous series, the total votes cast from both Qualifiers and Knockouts determined which singer was eliminated from the competition. This series features a modification to the Challenge rounds, with the Challenger entering the competition starting at the Knockout rounds instead of Challenge round (where a new substitute singer would enter the competition instead). Challengers must avoid last place on their first week in addition to finishing in the top four on the second week (in a combination of both knockout and challenge rounds) to be declared safe; failing either challenge instantly eliminates the singer from the competition. A new pre-voting introduced in the season, Pre-Audience Voting, replaces the Singer Voting which debuted in season 3. Midway after the fourth performance, the audience were asked to make early predictions on which three singers would receive the most votes after the remaining performances of that episode. Similar to Singer Voting, Pre-audience voting has no impact onto the outcome of the competition (with one exception, see below) and does not count towards the audience's vote count. The announcement of results was also changed, with only the results for the top four revealed during the Qualifiers, while the remaining results (bottom three) would not be revealed until the Knockouts; in most cases, they could choose their performance order by ballot for the next night. Contestants The following Singer 2018 contestants are listed in alphabetical order (singers without a placement for the final is listed as finalist; singers eliminated before the finals are listed as non-finalist; singers withdrew were listed as withdrawn): Key:   – Winner   – Runner-up   – Third place   – Other finalist   – Withdrew Future appearances Hua Chenyu would appear as a contestant on the eighth season in 2020. Results Competition details First round Qualifying Taping Date: January 3, 2018 Airdate: January 12, 2018 Knockout Taping Date: January 11, 2018 Airdate: January 19, 2018 The first challenger of the season was Juno Su. Due to Beijing's sudden ban on hip-hop culture, GAI withdraw from the competition; footage on GAI's performances from both episodes (and re-runs) were edited out, and clips of his involvement in the competition were also subsequently removed from video-sharing websites as well. His appearance was neither mentioned nor shown in the later episodes, thus effectively confirming his withdrawal from the competition. Overall ranking Challenge Taping Date: January 18, 2018 Airdate: January 28, 2018 The first substitute singer of the season was James Li. Normally Su was required to place in top four in a combination of both Knockout and Challenge rounds to be declared safe; however, due to GAI's withdrawal from last week, only the scores from the Challenge round determined the outcome alone. Total percentages of votes Second round Qualifying Taping Date: January 25, 2018 Airdate: February 2, 2018 The second substitute singer of the season was Hua Chenyu. Knockout Taping Date: February 1, 2018 Airdate: February 9, 2018 The second challenger of the season was KZ Tandingan. Overall ranking Challenge Taping Date: February 9, 2018 Airdate: February 16, 2018 Overall ranking Third round First Show Taping Date: February 10, 2018 Airdate: February 23, 2018 The third substitute singer of the season was Tengger. For this week, the results for this round was void due to Jessie J's illness on the following week (See Qualifiers below). Qualifying Taping Date: February 28, 2018 Airdate: March 9, 2018 The final challenger of the season was Henry Huo; Huo came in fourth and was temporarily declared safe. Normally, this round would have featured elimination; however, eliminations were cancelled as Jessie J was too ill to perform during rehearsal; Jessie would have perform "My Heart Will Go On", but actually performed the song the following week. Knockout/Challenge Taping Date: March 7, 2018 Airdate: March 16, 2018 As Jessie J was able to return after being absent in the previous week, this week featured a double elimination (any two singers with the two lowest votes, or one if Huo fails the Challenge). Tandingan and Hua were initially going to perform 1st and 3rd, respectively, but both orders were swapped on mutual agreement after Tandingan not wished to perform first after doing so on last week and Hua volunteered in taking her place.

The performance order were determined through the contestant's status quo and their duration on the stage, with the three remaining non-initial singers (Hua, Huo, and Tengger), as well as James Li (by-virtue on performing the longest (seven shows) among other singers) chose the performance order, while remaining singers drew their lots to decide the order; the order for the first four performers with a white-colored envelope are told not to open it until the start of the episode- Tien and Yu drew the gold-colored envelopes and were given their orders as fifth and sixth, respectively. For the first time in the show's history, interim eliminations occur during the Pre-Audience Voting: midway through the fourth and seventh performance, the 500-members cast one vote to save a singer- the singer receiving the fewest votes after each round of the Pre-Audience Voting will be eliminated immediately (breakout failure). The singers sang one song, and the four singers (of the remaining eight) having the most votes qualified for the fina.... Discover the Kevin Henry Xu Feng popular books.
