Hope you all saw some new tracks you liked in Nina’s sneak peak at this week’s SingStore update; I’m here to let you know how things are going in our hunt for the new face of SingStar – the Crystal Mics contest.

The last stage of the competition will soon be drawing to a close and just 30 finalists remain out of the 11,000 people who originally entered 10 weeks ago. Here are their names and even some clips of their superb SingStar perfomances:

Heat 1 Finallists

The video of our heat 5 finallists is coming soon!

For getting this far, each of our finalists have already earned themselves their own pair of (utterly gorgeous) crystal-encrusted Wireless SingStar Microphones, but just one final test remains: they must impress rock legend Bonnie Tyler!

Bonnie’s epic 80s rock ballad, Total Eclipse of the Heart, has been top of the SingStore ‘most downloaded’ chart for some time, so it seemed appropriate to invite her to be our Crystal Mics guest judge. Each of the 30 finalists will upload one more video performance to My SingStar Online or our SingStar community site, www.singstargame.com, in an effort to amaze Bonnie and be crowned the winner of the Crystal Mics. We’ll bring you the results of the final in July and so, in the meantime, good luck to all of our finalists and well done for making it this far!

And just in case you missed them in all of the E3 craziness, last week we announced two new SingStar games coming to both PS3 and PS2 later this year

SingStar Take That will feature a collection of new and classic tracks from the band’s career, including Shine, Back for Good and Could it be Magic; SingStar Motown celebrates the industry icon’s 50th anniversary with a great collection of tracks from legendary Motown artists, including The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and loads more. More info on these to come!

Cheers,

Naomi
