Pintsize pop star Warunee ‘Gig’ Suwannurak took to the stage - resplendent in a black cocktail dress - looking every inch the sultry, sexy singing sensation that she so clearly now is.
She was unrecogniseable from the rather shy and softly spoken young woman from the TGT auditions, so it was a rather odd decision that she chose to sing her audition song What’s Up by the 4 Non Blondes in the final.
The other Phuket contestant Romadon Suriyan was as energetic and captivating as ever. For his Grand Final performance he favoured a more rural, rugged and rustic form of expression as opposed to the myriad of colours from his earlier efforts.
It was rather hard to follow, as the final written and spoken message was in Thai. Suffice to say there was mud and there was Romadon. Then there was muddy Romadon.
Both Phuket artists can return to our island with their heads held high. Well done guys. You did us proud.
