But they regrettably changed their minds midway.
No other reason than that Hannah agreed to participate in the show.
Based on the time of debut, Hilary Quin was naturally the senior. However, based on recent popularity, although she reckoned as a celebrity highlight, there was a gap compared to Hannah.
Understandably, the show tended to spotlight Hannah. George Quach also contributed to it.
He was passionate about Hannah.
However, no matter how you look at it, amongst the four, James Landon was the most significant celeb, and Hannah was the most popular. Hilary Quin was absolutely not in the running or being considered.
Hilary's agency was obviously not willing to accept this. They tried everything possible to demand the spotlight for Hilary. George didn't budge, which led to their halting participation in the show. Risking compensation for cancellation, it was a form of threat.
Unexpectedly, George, a brand new producer, remained silent, planning to stay the course.
