Singapore's Hady Mirza wins first Asian Idol contest

SINGAPORE: Hady-mania swept through Changi Airport on Monday evening when the Asian Idol returned home.

Hundreds waited more than an hour to congratulate Hady Mirza and to see their idol in person.

It was the generous voting of many of the fans that had helped the Singapore Idol win the Asian crown.

One of his fans, Zahratul Asyeeqah Mohamed, said: "For my family, the combined cost (of sending text messages to vote for Hady) would definitely be more than S$700."

Basking in the attention of hundreds of supporters, Hady did not forget to attribute his success to his fans.

He said: "This is not my own... this is our win together. I'm so happy, look at them! This is all too overwhelming."
