 So You Want to Be a Pop Star
Consumers can view the finalists’ videos on November 27, 2007 at the PowerShot web site where they can vote for their favorite pop star candidate until December 5, 2007. Any visitor to the site who submits a vote during this time has a chance to win themselves a trip to New York City and tickets to Z100’s Jingle Ball 2007. The Grand Prize winner and voting bloc winner will be awarded round-trip airfare for themselves, plus one guest, to New York City. Both winners will be selected on December 7, 2007.
PowerShot SD870 IS Digital Elph
Once in New York, the pop star-in-training Grand Prize winner will have four days to explore New York City and will receive lessons with celebrity voice, dance, hair/make-up and wardrobe coaches. And since pop stars need to be in the limelight, the Grand Prize winner will join Z100 DJ JJ and various Jingle Ball artists in the broadcast booth backstage before the concert. With their PowerShot SD870 IS Digital Elph camera in hand, the Grand Prize winner will be able to get up-close and personal to some of the biggest music stars.
Z100 music station
Z100, New York’s hit music station, hosts Jingle Ball annually and it has fast become one of the most popular holiday concerts in the country. Popular artists from all over the world come to New York City in December for the opportunity to sing at Madison Square Garden and for Z100 fans.
