Singer Tony Hadley backs Singaporean who was denied SG$10k prize for 'mispronouncing' his name

A Singaporean who was denied SG$10,000 prize in radio contest for supposedly mispronouncing Spandau Ballet's Tony Hadley (pic) gets help from the singer himself.

A Singaporean who was denied a win in a challenge on radio station Gold 905 because he was deemed to have mispronounced the name of English singer-songwriter Tony Hadley enlisted the help of Hadley himself to show that he had said the name right.

Muhammad Shalehan, 32, called in on April 21 to give his best shot at the Celebrity Name Drop challenge hosted by Mediacorp radio station Gold 905. A prize worth SG$10,000 (RM30,724) in "cash and shopping spree" was promised to the first caller who successfully named all 14 celebrity voices each saying a word of this phrase: "Gold 9-0-5, the station that sounds good, and makes you feel good".
