david cook wins american idol

david cook, a texan native was announced the latest american idol. he get harsher comments compare to the other david (archuleta). simon cowell thought it doesn't matter whoever wins this time cause both davids showed their determination in this competition. the final result show was a show packed with performances from george michael whom ryan seacrest addressed as GM. the interesting part is the show featured singers that making their comeback. there's also a video of singing jack black, robert downey jr. , and ben stiller.

in diari akademi fantasia, ramli ms announced to the remaining contestant, that stanly's mum had passed away. the students give their condolences to stanly.
there might be no show-biz activities for stanly in the few upcoming weeks to respect him and his family.
stanly was the 9th student to be eliminated from the show. he was cut just a week before the finale.
i hope stanly will remain strong and happy as he's before.

akademi fantasia 6; stanly swan song

last night, it's all about who's going to the final. apparently, ac mizal's attempt to surprised the audience doesn't really work out.
of course we know nadia was on the bottom last week but this week when toi was announced to be in the final, i all along know that it was stanly who get the boot.

some judge talk slow, some judge talk trash

afdlin shauki was one of the judge on last night concert, he give comments by talking slowly, but ogy was trash talking when she said that stacy's performance has low energy. apparently, she said that nadia's so-so performance was full of energy.

- stacy sang beat it (michael jackson).
- nadia sang lelaki buaya darat (ratu)

some rock, other just flop

toi proved to the judges that he deserve to be in the final. he has improved a lot as told by judge ning baizura. nubhan give a good performance when he managed to keep it cool regardless of a few vocal slackness. sadly, riz doesn't rock the clock last night.

- toi sang 'kau yang bernama seri' (handyblack)
- nubhan sang
- riz sang rock around the clock (elvis presley)

bro-mance is better than romance

then there's the duet song performed by the students.i love stanly and toi's effort,it's fun. while, nadia and riz remain uninjectable to me. the most anticipated duet of nubhan and stacy fail to achieved the level rank by ebi and mila last year. stacy took the limelight in that song.

tribute to loloq

faizal, aizat, velvet, and sahri sang a medley song written by loloq as a tribute to the songwriter who passed away early this year.

bye bye stanly

if there's an elimination last week, nadia will be out. but as i said earlier even in this level stanly failed to impress. i hoped he won't regret his decision to not play the piano. check back for the finale recap.

beyonce knowles is a desperate housewife

do i look desperate, holla!

yes she might be a desperate housewife, not that literal. yes you got it beyonce will be the next cast for the future season of abc's desperate housewives. she will be the new neighbor in wisteria lane. can't wait for that.

many stars apparently has venture into the tv industry. lindsay lohan is in ugly betty, britney is in how i met your mother,etc.

fyi it's been a while since black character is in the show. in season 2 we have the applewhite family. hopefully this will boost both the show and beyonce's reputation.

you received a text message... and you're gonna die !

have you ever recieved a text message on your mobile phone that freaks you out, watch the movie 'one missed call' for reference.

recently, people had received weird message from unknown number telling them that something really bad's gonna happen.

i haven't got it yet but my close friend does, it was send by an unknown number which when you try to call all you got is the operator's voice.

it causes havoc at my local town, the message is very creepy even for a sceptic like me, here's a sample of the sms, it's actually written in malay but i translate it to reduce its level of freakiness.

tonight the 666 chips satellite will be launched to space.effective this 11pm, all SIM cards must be removed from your cell phone and must be keep away until morning because tonight 'ANTIKRIS' will launched the chips 666 satellite. it will find its way into your phone. don't accept any sms or call from axis number with the initial 0866 or 0838. when the the caller's number started to turn red the phone must be shut and don't ever accept it or else you'll be doomed. 2 american had died to date.

there's also another similar version of the message typed in capital letters

ATTENTION EVERYONE; IF YOU RECEIVED A CALL FROM SOMEONE WITH A LONG PHONE NUMBER e.g.+62852731520946 AND THE NUMBER IS RED IN COLOR,PLEASE DO NOT ACCEPT AND ANSWER THE CALL. THIS IS BECAUSE, RIGHT NOW IN INDONESIA, A GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT USES BLACK MAGIC IS TESTING THEIR SKILLS THROUGH THE CELL PHONE. IF ANYONE ANSWER THE PHONE, BUBBLE WILL FROTH FROM THEIR MOUTH AND HE/SHE WILL DIE AFTERWARDS. IN INDONESIA 9 VICTIMS HAD MET THEIR MAKER AND LAST NIGHT IN PUCHONG,M'SIA 2 PEOPLE DIED. THIS ARE HAPPENING. PLEASE FORWARD THIS MSG.

okay it has the same modus operandi but with a different source, i'm talking about the message. anyway it depends on people to judge this. this is currently happening in today's world. technology evolved...

whitney is the next top model

the 10th cycle of america's next top model named whitney as the winner, whitney who was a regular at the bottom two (4 times altogether) and also a plus-sized model become the first ever plus-sized model to be in the top 5 and to win the competition.

here's a collection of whitney's portfolio in her antm journey;

this photo cause whitney to be in the bottom two for the first time

she managed to impress the judge with this 'grunge' photo

american idol 6, before the finale recap

yes, it's only a week before finale where the davids (archuleta and cook) battle their voice to be the next american idol. my vote goes to david cook but i think this year the younger ones rule but there's only one way to find out, we have to watch the finale next week... but before that here's a quick look at the 10 contestants who didn't make it to the final... in the order of elimination

david hernandez
he completes the david trio, he got the package, i mean he got the voice, the look and the move. unfortunately, he got a reputation as a stripper thus making him the first one to be cut. who wants to idolised a stripper anyway.

amanda overmyer
she's one contestant that i look forward to but again, the controversy that surrounds her which is most of it are negatives pushing her out of the contest. she's also not as versatile as the other hopefuls.

chikezie eze
he actually impressed me in his audition but as the real competition started he started to show weakness in his singing and also in his style (remember the coke inspired red suite he's waring back in the first top12 guys week).

ramiele malubay
she's one of my fave, if i compare her to jasmine triasse i think ramiele is better vocal-wise but wrong choice of songs often make her failed to present. she got a big voice but not very convincing thus she's eliminated when she appeared first time in the bottom two.

michael johns
initially, i thought michael rely a lot on his looks to get votes but i was proved wrong when he sings we are the champion/we will rock you. but this aussie hunks was, i think too old to be an idol (he's going to be as old as ryan seacrest next year).

kristy lee cook
she's one contestant you like to hate besides kady malloy, she's been in the bottom two for a couple and more weeks but managed to survived. she proved to simon that she's unforgettable and even got a chance to say it to simon's face when she's eliminated (who can't forget her when she sings to simon while sitting on the judge's table). kristy lee cook is a stunning tomboy but again being in the bottom two for several times can't guaranteed your future in idol.

carly smithson
i was shocked to see her go home because during that week (the theater week) she managed to get praise from all the judges, she even prepared a shirt to show her gratitude if simon cowell is impressed. then i thought, this happens to other contestant from previous season too, when you already had an album pre-idol voters started to think that you had to give a chance to people that's new to this industry.

brooke white
one of my fave, cos she's down, she's real and stuff. causing controversy when he asks the music director to stopped due to his failure to remember the first couple words of madonna's you must loved me. brooke white is also a common landers in the bottom two so her elimination is just a matter of time, really.

jason castro
everytime he sings i yawned... i don't know why i hate him so much, it's not because of that hair i think. i'm glad syesha survived instead of him, glad he forgot the lyrics...

syesha mercado
she's an actress/singer. she scores great in few songs but also got a few boos and was criticised for not being her in some of her performances.

can't wait for the finale,keep ur finger crossed.

akademi fantasia 6, all wrapped up! (almost)

yes, akademi fantasia has entered its 9th week, hopefully this week we'll see one student (or maybe two...) get the boot after the 8th week concert give all of the 6 remaining contestant a free pass to advance. to celebrate the coming finale, here's a recap on the concert of akademi fantasia from week 1 to week 8.

week 1
too bad, though she is featured in 'diari af' for some technichal problem she made, yana who sings 'diriku tapak sulaiman' by elyana was the first one to be eliminated from af.

week 2
changing song is the decision ika should regret. the song 'malu tapi mahu' is not in her range. saved from last week elimination but unfortunately she became the second girl to leave.

week 3
it's the rock week where the students have to prove that they can handle this genre. most of the students got thumbs down. lufya's singing and disney princess inspired dress fail to save her from being cut. then, naim get the boot as he become the other victim of this double elimination round.

week 4
he's been warned, but faisal impressed ramli ms' by giving a slightly better peformance unfortunately the voters had lost their trust.

week 5
despite of the havoc that surround her as siti nurhaliza's sister,saida's constant non-believeable performance fail to keep her fanbase voting.

week 6
she had strong performances in the previous week. but people thought she's too 'mature' to stay in af. rina who had caused controversies when af 6 had started become the next to go home.

week 7
he's one (and maybe only) of the good looking male contetsant in af 6, he managed to maintain his position on the top during the previous weeks but as he was struggling from a serious injury, fan started to judge him, thus alif became the one that's leaving the large stage of istana budaya.

week 8
it's a week full of drama... nubhan and riz failed to impress but managed to gain votes as they both become the top two. nadia who was i the bottom was saved from elimination when ac announced that the week is a non-elimination week.

that's the recap for af, sodon't forget to check my blog as i'll present more outs and bouts in af. ciao!

not even close, japan ain't the pit stop

yeah, it's japan !!!

daichi and swaka jammed-packed with japanese knowledge (which is totally obvious, cos they're japanese), arrived first.

terri and henry was the last team to arrived but hey i'ts not the pit stop.!!!

-to be cont'd-

too little too late to make it; sophie and aurelia jettisoned

i don't remember this episode cos i didn't watch it.

this time the teams went to new zealand, bla bla drama, it involves stupid car scratching, some mud moment, breakdown, girl catfights etc.

the important thing is the hong kong all girl team was send home for being late... ha ha ha.

as with the previous elimination, Aurelia & Sophie hit an hours of operation problem. They don’t even get to attempt the first task. Not that getting gas in the car didn’t prove challenging enough for them. Both of them blame each other for the loss.
