Winner of the Karaoke World Championships would get 1 million Russian dumplings
September 25th, 2010 - 1:02 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattSep 24 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The Karaoke World Championships kicked off in the Russian capital Moscow on Thursday.
The competition features talented singers from all over the world. The competition’s judges will choose the best male and female singers before the audience will be given the chance to choose the eventual winner who will walk away with 1 million Russian dumplings and the title of Karaoke world champion.
This year, the event features 31 singers from the world. The event will run for three days at the banquet hall of Moscow.
Contestants get points deducted from their total, if they look at the lyrics of the song they are singing on the screen. That doesn’t matter because most of the singers are talented and this is the eighth edition of the show.
Some describe the event as the Olympics of Karaoke. This is because the event is different from other singing competitions like the “American Idol” and others.
The American team is mentored by Brian Scott. Scott in trying to tell the difference between the event and other shows said “It’s a lot different… this is more like an Olympic event for all the countries of the world”.
The prize is by courtesy of the sponsors of the event.
