Jernelle Oh Yu Shi (born 3 July 1994)[1] is a Singaporean actress and host who made her debut through the Star Search 2019 where she was one of the 12 finalists in the talent search competition. Oh is the first in her Star Search batch to have received a nomination for Star Awards for Best Actress for her role as Huang Mei Zhen in Cash On Delivery.

Early life and career

Oh attended Ngee Ann Polytechnic where she majored in Chinese media and communication.[2] Oh then went on to obtain a bachelor's degree in linguistics and multilingual studies from Nanyang Technological University.[3] She had worked as a TV extra and English-Chinese tutor before joining Star Search 2019.[2] [4]

A finalist in Star Search 2019, Oh has been cast in vastly different roles. She played a Vietnamese national in My Star Bride (2021) and a Thai woman in long-form drama The Heartland Hero (2021).[5] In 2023, she played a food delivery worker with cerebral palsy in Cash on Delivery, where the character was based on a real-life person.[6] [7]

In 2021, Mediacorp's artiste management arm The Celebrity Agency created the girl group "4567", where Oh was part of the group with Gini Chang, Juin Teh and Seow Sin Nee.[8] [9] [10]

In mid-August 2023, Oh started her guest-hosting gig on the news radio station Capital 95.8FM.[11]
