Soul Siren Nina was invited to guest in Star World Channel’s Asia Uncut in Singapore. Asia Uncut is a talk show that accesses Asia’s people, places, and personalities in a familiar, yet fresh and fun, format. Hosted by American Jon Niermann, the show is imbued with the soul of the East and all about what’s happening in Asia. Niermann has very purposely created a format that is accessible, spirited, comedic, and sometimes edgy. It is current and now combining visiting international celebrities who want to make a mark in Asia with regional personalities. In order to accomplish this, not all guests are hosted in studio on the set. Instead, some guests are met by the host or other Asia Uncut regulars in the country they are visiting outside of the studio, where the viewers get to watch as the guests “go local” to experience a part of Asia.
Asia Uncut is being broadcasted on Asia’s largest regional network, Star World, and reaching the network’s 300 million viewers. It hosts everybody and anybody coming through or living in Asia – celebrities, important business people, politicians, and people with great talents, personalities, or stories of any sort. Asia Uncut offers the television exposure that visiting VIP’s to Asia have always wanted, but that was never previously available. Asia Uncut is the first one-shot mainstream avenue to reach the majority of English speaking people in Asia on an entertainment network. And with a billion people from China and India alone learning English as their second language, this is a BIG market!
Their pilot show featured James Blunt along with local guests was received with rave reviews by the networks who viewed it. The show began tapings in October, 2008 with guests including Maggie Q, Kareem Abdul Jabar, Kareena Lam, and Motley Crue. Many more and exciting guests to come!
