Stuff To Watch This Week (July 18-24, 2022)
Mediacorp searches for the next top DJ in The Star Voice, while Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans face off in The Gray Man.
The Star Voice 2022
Forget The Voice, this is The Star Voice — the Mediacorp reality show where nine budding radio presenters (or DJs, if you want them to sound sexy) vie for the top prize of S$80,000 or cash and prizes. With YES 933’s Hazell Teo as hot and LOVE 972’s Dennis Chew (shouldn’t he be in school?), CAPITAL 958’s Pan Jiabiao and YES 933’s Zhong Kunhua as mentors.
Watch it on: meWATCH, Mediacorp Entertainment YouTube and meLISTEN, every Thursday from July 21; curated versions will also be available on Channel 8 and Channel U.

The Gray Man
Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans play rival assassins going at each other with extreme prejudice in this US$200 million (S$280 mil) globetrotting thriller from The Russo Brothers (Avengers: Endgame). The reviews have been mixed, so manage your expectations. But chances are you’ll most likely be folding laundry with this playing in the background. Remember Red Notice?
