Blues over white

Are you a vagitarian? (no I did not spell that wrong) If so you in deep shit. But read for yourself by CLICKING HERE on the Malaysian Department of Islamic Development's (Jakim) explanation on the fatwa or religious ruling made a month ago on butch women in the paper today.

Carpet munchers, beware! They beginning the witch hunt.



Erm... I reserve any comments on the issue. And for those affected, I would say find your inner peace to deal with this. But try not falling back on yoga, cause the National Fatwa Council has made the announcement that they have ruled that yoga is haram for Muslims.



So it's obvious I have too much time to catch up with reading the rags. Ni baru balik my cousin's wedding reception. Gawd... weddings used to be beautiful for me. Now they're just bloody depressing. Just sets me off into the blues.

And I'm not even talking about the bad decor, the horrible dress sense of guests or the rude behaviour of those who have had one too many drinks.

Though the decor was pretty bad at the venue just now.

Exhibit A - Abuse of lampu lip lap sana sini.. of all colours!


Exhibit B - Lanterns fashioned into bug zappers


Exhibit C - archway... tacky


Exhibit D - someone decided to recycle fugly Christmas decor


Still dinner wasn't too bad, plus I am happy for my cousin. He and his blushing bride make for a good couple, so congrats cuz!



Headed home with my folks and felt too buggered lazy to go out walaopon cam bosan. Bluesy... maybe it's just the wedding getting me down. It's hard to be single at 32. But I remind myself, I'd rather be alone than be lonely with someone as I've been before. Besides I have so much I have yet to achieve, so focus is a priority...

So maybe things aren't all that bad...

Watching the finale of America's Next Top Model Cycle 11 which I've been trying to find time to watch. Yeay! McKey Sullivan won!



Just a bit of a bummer she wasn't up against Analeigh for the final, cause I thought Sam was just a yawn. Tengok muka dia cam Whitney pun ada. Nothing special. Now if my other favourites like McKey like Lauren Brie or Elina had not been eliminated, things would have made for a better climax to the end of the season.

Tried a marathon of all the cycles of Britain's Next Top Model just to pass time, but this version is so crap, I quit after one episode. And I thought the Australian one was a bore. At least I've watched that in its entirety.
When does the next season of Project Runway US and Australia start already...

Reality bites

The last few days lupa lak nak catch up on my dose of my favourite reality shows, namely the eleventh cycle of America's Next Top Model and the fifth season of Project Runway.

First of all, am super pissed Isis is out of contention. Being the controversial contestant this year, she is of course, a pre-op transgender. In other words, people. That's one helluva good looking boy there soon to be a woman. Despite not having the assets of the other contestants, she rocked her photo shoots, no matter what the judges say. I think they just backing out of the choice of selecting her and afraid of what middle America will say.

Stupid! You suck big time Tyra! There were quite a few others who didn't even deserve to be there. Well at least Alaskan trailer park trash Hannah got kicked out for not being able to walk before even the photoshoot. Yeay for that!

First challenge


Second


Third


Fourth and final


Even Miss J is horrified she's out... or maybe she's contemplating lip surgery


So there goes the rumours that Isis made the top five. I have a few more favourites left like Mckey and especially Elina, the self-professed lesbian. Hope they make it to the top cause can't stand the top including the likes of Clarke. Eww!

Then caught up with Project Runway. Suede, the weirdo who likes to refer to himself in the third person is finally out. Hurrah for that. Tapi can't stand it that Kenley is still in. That's one helluva an overrated b****h!

Hence, I hope she gets kicked out this week, so that Korto, Jerell and Leann make it to Bryant Park. Since Joe Faris got cut, I don't think there have been many designers in this season that would make the grade.
Possibly the weakest season ever.

Argh!!! Me stuck on reality shows. Gila lah. Nak layan lagi the Australian version. By the way, if you Youtube, check out the first season of Project Runway Australia. Just finished watching the first season. There's a guy in it, who was Malaysian and moved to Australia who finished fourth!

See?! We have the talents! Just all of them need to move away to prove themselves.

Movie marathon again

Too lazy to be updating today. Having a movie marathon on my own at home. And also surfing the net.Found some clips and spoilers for America's Next Top Model Cycle 11. Not fooled by the teaser shots, cause wanna see how they going to be in the show itself. Less than a week to go. Tak sabar aku.



One star attraction is the 22 year-old Isis, the first transgendered contestant. Tak sabar nak tengok camna dia perform. one up for the queens! She doesn't look the best among the 'ladies' but I'm hoping she'll represent.

You go girl. Rumour has it that she made the top five, but didn't win. We'll see.



Now back to my movies. Be posting soon. Long day tomorrow.

And the girl blah blah blah by Tyra

Today was being butt lazy day! Got some shut eye and rest ahead of the storm that I'm going to face - nay... whirlwind of work. So took a chill pill since we're heading towards the end of the week.

And what better way to do it, that indulge on an America's Next Top Model marathon!
First, layan the Part 1 and Part 2 of America's Next Top Model - Exposed!, the pre Cycle 10 special. Honestly, it was great, though I wished they had shown more of other cycles instead of constantly going back to the last three cycles so much.

Wish could have seen more Yoanna or Naima, my two favourite winners. Plus, they should have updated on where the winners are, though I suspect Tyra wasn't willing to put her ego on the line to let us know some of her pickings have been failing. Wonder whether Saleiha is getting any jobs (puke!) Still think she doesn't deserve to have won. Oops... ada yang lom tau result sebab sibuk ikut on free TV or Astro ke? Sorry...

The last nine cycles


I think they should have showed a little more on the bitch fights because I definitely remembered a lot more. Oh well. If you can get your hands on these, it's worth a watch if you're an ANTM fan.

Pastu da abih je, layan the first episode of cycle 10.

A total of 35 girls were shortlisted, including Marvita who didn't make Cycle 9, which I wished hadn't come back. I mean seriously... do we need another Grace Jones wannabe? What's so fresh about that?

Fatima from Somalia is the only one who remotely caught my eye, but what's with the hair? Still, she came with a sob story of being circumcised and a promise of a social cause to eradicate female circumcision, so I guess that made her politically correct to include. Besides, Tyra is always trying so hard to be seen fighting for something, so Fatima should do well.

Claire is scary - and not in a funky way either. Dominique is so bimbo with a horrid tan, though promising for a second.

Kim is just so dumb blonde with a face that looks like she's been chasing parked cars and Lauren looks like a hillbilly reject.

I think of them all - Anya is my favourite, along with Katarzyna. Maybe Amy too though I agree with Miss J that she has quite a dated look.

Oh God... Stacey Ann? Let's not start on the whiny ho.

The rest were pretty forgettable.

Oh yeah... Tyra extended the spots to 14 instead of 13 - supposedly because they were all so good... what a load of crap.

None of the girls stood out, unlike last season when I immediately liked Heather, Lisa and Chantal.

And what's with model prep. Ah.... I miss ANTM. Without it, I'd have nothing to bitch about on and on (siap repeat sebab nak tengok balik and kutuk). This is actually therapeutic.

Model prep? What would be the motto? In Photoshop we trust????


The models for Cycle 10


The second episode was quite ok to watch though because the action started early. One thing for sure, the whole feel and styling of the production had gone a notch up.

The model loft was happening!!! Damn that giant bed! And the lighted catwalk with the video screen!

And for the first challenge... well, I thought it was, but it wasn't really strangely enough, as it didn't appear to weigh so much on the judges decisions nor did it have a winner... was a fashion show for... Badgely Mischka!!!

Oh my God! The models get to parade their latest collection in the middle of Times Square! Gila lah ANTM skang.... makan ati!

Horrible on the catwalk - Marvita (bitch appears to be on crack and staring at her crack), Amis (was she even walking) and Lauren (she walked like she had balls)

The rest were ok or fab but my faves were Dominique, Katarzyna and Claire in trms of their walk. Fatima looked good though she didn't work it on the runway.

I wanted to bitch slap Kim the most as she griped about the price of fashion and so on... come on! What did you think you were entering for, bitch!

But Fatima accidentally did that to Marvita for us. Puas... and this whole conspiracy theory by Marvita konon si Fatima saja nak panaskan dia so she would go past the boiling point and blow up.

However that drama just fizzled out when they later made up after Marvita gave her side of the story and Fatima apologised and they ironed things out.

The models popped by Elite Model Management and met Paulina Porizkova for the first time - who is replacing Twiggy.

And yes, she was right. Dominique looks like a man. Matilah ko!

The homeless theme was whacked - cause for some reason Tyra thought she made a positive difference. Er... pray tell how in stiletto heaven,Tyra, did you just play Oprah there.

Anyway back to Kim. It finally came out during judging whenshe mengaku she didn't want it. Boo ya Tyra! Didn't you see that coming during the weeks of pre-competition???

So Kim decided to LEAVE! Great... sucks for the other girls who didn't make it because of the ho who looked like she'd been chasing parked cars.

In the end poor Atalya had to join the loser ranks of Kim when she got eliminated. No loss really. But considering some of the other girls couldn't walk AT ALL, this was a serious f**k up!

P*ssed off, J rips Kim's picture! While being cool as a cucumber.B*tchy elegance!


Notice his jacket? It's got velcro bits with the girls names. He takes them off when they get eliminated. Nice idea... butt ugly though.The jacket... erm.. and whatever else you think is too.


So it's two models down so far


Atalya's shoot. Not too horrendous actually. Seen worse in ANTM history.




Also managed to watch a couple of movies.. tapi malas review. Nanti jer la esok aku update on something else. Malas siot nak update blog. The lazy bug bites! I promise later over the weekend ada something interesting ok. Ta.

Ubat lelaki kuat tahan lesen

Now what the f**k is THAT supposed to mean??? Ubat lelaki kuat... tahan lesen? Erm...mungkin Bahasa Malaysia aku lemah kot tapi tak paham langsung ayat tuh. Sesiapa yang tahu, atau rajin nak call tukang pengiklan ni, silakan tinggalkan komen yer what the hell that means.

Sekaligus promosi bisnes orang nih. Jangan wat spekulasi ini perniagaan aku dah lah. Matilah!
The past couple of days have been short of sleep, and thus, siang memang membuta. Mana tak nya. Sejak ada external hard disk drive aku tuh, terus memacam layan laptop aku yang kembali ringan (including downloading all the known South Park episodes ever released at a total of 24GB!

As a result, my Christmas shopping terbantut sikit. Damn. Looks like this years is going to be a mad last minute rush.

Anyway - ni entry yang da lama janji tak posting langsung. The final episode of America's Next Top Model Cycle 9.

Am downloading Australia's Next Top Model at the moment, all three cycles, so hope it's better than the American version because honestly I think Tyra is getting to be such a cow.

Now... on to the final review - you guys will watch this sometime middle 2008 on Astro if you're lucky since it's always delayed. And 8TV will probably show it in 2009. Matilah aku...!!!
Is it just me or is Tyra getting really cliched?

"The 13 finalists of America's Next Top Model have take this competition to the next level. Some exceeed expectations, soaring to new heights. While others never got of fthe ground."

So goes Tyra's speech.

One thing for sure, ANTM is one programme that will never get hit by the writers' strike.
The judges, or Tyra, based on her intro commentary, narrowed down the weaknesses of the remaining three models.

Chantal - wonder if she has what it takes to be extraordinary.
Saleisha - relies too much on her commercial looks
Jenah - the photogenic tomboy with the sarcastic streak

Jenah didn't do the worst this round I think. She may not have carried off well, but one warning of cue cards and she did it pretty well. She did not look snotty or anything. And yet the judges seem to take it out on her this time.

Where do they place their eyes? Up their butts?

Sebelum ni you had these girls playing major c**t and no one bothered to do anything,
Chantal didn't do as good as I thought, and despite liking her, I thought she sucked in the Covergirl commercial.

Saleisha did quite well in terms of handling her composure - and props to her for that.

The jury asking the girls for their personal analysis of who's the best and who's the worst is just encouraging b***hing. Saleisha and Chantal pointed out Jenah's attitude. I mean, I agree but honeslty, the judges appeared to be setting her up for past sins.

It wasn't just the right way.

Anyway - Saleisha's commercial was criticised by Jay bur her photo was well received. She is commercial material after all, so it's her advantage.
Chantal - had a lousy commercial but agree with them that she is cut out for this because it is the real her. Her shoot was decent though.
Jenah - did decent, but I think Tyra was just nasty, as were the jury who decided to break her down, saying she was just making a joke out of the commercial. I thought it was nasty that they tried to play Brady Bunch with her trying to keep things real. It ws almost corny for them to psycho her to that level. After that - and a good photo? The best among the three actually.




If I were to go overall - Saleisha's ass should be the one sent home because Jenah has been the best in photos and Chantal is just unique and relateable.

Saleisha is just common - but obviously from the last few episodes, it was obvious that the jury were setting her up to be the champion.

Instead as expected, they sent Jenah home. What the... oh well... we knew it was going to happen.

Glad they called Chantal first, but for me I think it was to allay suspicions that Saleisha was going to win. Konon suspense la.

I have to say one thing though - it was the most emotional episode. When Jenah took a battering earlier, all three were already in tears.


When Tyra gave her badly written eulogy - all three of them cried buckets. Sniff... well it isn't Saleisha's fault that Tyra is a cow who fixed the competition.

Still, back to casting week, it was already predicted in a way when Saleisha told Chantal "let's be the last two standing".


There wasn't much time to mourn and it was to the Seventeen cover shoot.

On to the final two walk-off.in Qi Gang fashion show. I thought the fact that Tyra and the judges going down the catwalk was lame. Tyra is just trash who tries to be royalty.


My respect goes down for her with every cycle of ANTM because she keeps indulging in these little things to try and elevate her status.

Was it just me that Chantal got the hardest dresses to walk in? My heart really went out to her on the final dress. On her third walk, she AGAIN had this gorgeous, but ridiculously extravagant outfit.

Lord knows why but they put stilt walkers on both sides of the catwalk like some bad European circus in need of an Asian touch.

One of the stilt walkers stepped on Chantal's train by accident. As she was walking, the next thing you know, down comes the guy with a horrendous bump!

How do you not get affected by that?

Again with a iss Congeniality like Chantal... it was expected that she would break out of character.



Saleisha powered it up on the catwalk, but since we know it was a fix, very obvious from the last few episodes she was going to be made winner, it didn't seem to matter.

Oh, and this has to be one of the most boring finales ever.

The end?

So, Heroes draws to a close this week with the eleventh episode, while America's Next Top Model leads up to the final episode this week, for us to know who will join the other eight cycle winners.

The most predominant feeling through watching these two programs, these two particular episodes is the fact that - I should NEVER know things beforehand because it really kills the suspense.

Knowing the ending to both finales, the fun was a little erased.

Still - there were plus points. Let's begin with Heroes.

The rushed final episode (thank you striking scriptwriters) was I think the best episode of the whole Volume II... which isn't much of a compliment since it didn't generate the same excitement as when I began watching Heroes a year ago.

Still, I admit to being a Heroes freak - and remain loyal to it (unless they bring back that Niki's character, or even Jessica!).

Hope they really develop things more, at a faster pace - and avoid those stupid cliches and predictable outcomes.

Case in point, this episode, it was obvious for some many things happening that they would as it would have made sense to wrap things up this way. Still doesn't make it less sucky the fact they did so though.

The scene begins with Sylar and Maya find wimpy Mohinder, after the former lures him back with Molly. How the hell could they leave Molly in Mohinder's stupid crap hell hole with a stupider babysitter who could relinquish her guard. Senseless...

Mohinder finally realises Sylar's lost his powers and needs help, and Maya finally breaks out of the stupid misplaced trust. Like du-uh!

While Mohinder forcibly checks on Sylar, who has apparently been injected with the Shanti virus, Molly tries to help Maya by looking for Alejandro. Gee - he's dead, so she can't and Maya freaks out.

So predictable.

She goes berserk, and gets shot by Sylar. Don't worry - they don't kill off anyone prematurely unless their contracts expire. Maya is administered the serum by Mohinder on orders of Sylar - who wants to make sure it works.

And hey - it works!

Not before Elle walks in and bug zaps Sylar. Sylar escapes though - as always despit e being hurt with no powers due to the logic of desperation to survive on TV

Matt is busy with Nathan talking to Angela and retracing the steps of the elders and how Adam fits in by being the psychotic wacko who wanted to clean up the world by wiping the slate clean.
Erm... doesn't explain why Angela had her change of heart since she was so for the nuclear cleansing in Volume I.

We move on to the showdown between Hiro and Peter which gave us false promise of a showdown. Forget it... Hiro tries explaining - without saying anything much (stupid stupid stupid) about Adam's past.

So Peter bolts Hiro, and surprisingly for Adam, didn't bother killing off Hiro (which doesn't make sense because Adam's hardly known for his compassion - sloppy work if you ask me) And you'd think being 400 years old would make him smarter.

They manage to get to the vault holding the virus and Peter gets them in.

Adam goes in the vault and Hiro tries to stop Peter but gets smackdowned.
Matt steps in to use his mind games, and hey - thanks to the convenience of the script - Peter immediately knows how to use it against Matt. More stupid argument with the IQ challenged Peter by Nathan before he finally comes to and rushed to the vault.

Hiro who is in the vault grabs Adam and disappears with him as the latter drop the vial.
Of course Peter being stupid and all - has to make amends for the bimbo lovers - he stops time, grabs the vial, and destroys the virus. Whoopie!

Matt, Nathan and Peter decide to go public to expose the company (scripwriters ran out of ideas and repeated the Claire plot).

Nathan during the press conference comes out with the corny speech (monologue), and to the Independence Day (and a variety of feel good American popcorn speeches) feel, begins the tell-all.

At the very moment he is about to speak of his powers, he gets shot twice and everything goes silent, with backing tracks playing and a man seen walking away.

Hiro appears in Japan and tells Ando he's dealt with Adam who is shown buried alive.
Apparently Adam got teleported into a buried coffin. Apparently Hiro counted too much on the power of logic again that of TV. Adam'll be back.. just watch.

Claire spents the whole episode showing she is adamant on exposing the company.
West the boyband flying wonderboy chickens out and Claire gets anal with him.

Elle meanwhile continues to have Daddy issues. She discovers how she was pushed at the age of seven - to realise potential of her powers when Noah tells her all. How did she grow a heart?

Doesn't quite click with the hard-edged b****h who is so desperately seeking acceptance.
Anyway when she bolts Sylar down - we get a feeling Elle may like playing Hero in Volume III.
Bob meanwhile twists Noah's arm by threats (you mean Noah didn't think of it? - and where the f**k is the Haitian sidekick???)

Noah meanwhile chickens out - and gets Claire to stop the expose on the company - for fear of Bob's threats.

What a wimp and talk about bad direction. That easily huh...

Micah and Niki go after Monica to save her who is about to go up in flames. Boringly desperate attemp for a sense of urgency.

Niki tells Micah her powers are gone but surprisingly still she can kick ass. She also gets to play Backdraft stunt double to save Monica and gets fried - or so we assume. Someone check it Ali Larter is really going to get pulled out of the show so we can start celebrating if she really is dead.

Anyway, two things show the lead-in for Volume III.

First when Angela gets the news by a caller unidentified to us, she goes, "I now, it was unavoidable. You do know that you've now opened Pandora's Box," before putting the phone down.

Who called? What secrets will pour out now that the floodgates are supposedly open? Why bother asking these questions when Astro is only going to show this Volume in January 2008 over Star World? And will you even remember this review by the time TV3 shows it, possibly in 2009?

The other is a preview of Volume III, which we see titled Villains where Sylar cheesily injects himself (yes yes yes the serum works), he gets his powers back and goes "I'm back!" (how creative - wonder how many days they stayed up to think up of that line."

So the asshole is back. Big f***ing deal. He's definitely got a new boring. How to be repetitively boring.

Sylar takes notes from the other freak in Popeye. Spinach is good for you!

So is Niki and Nathan really dead? Who knows - don't bother making up the storylines as the logic of Heroes' writers defy any known form. It'll all depend on their contract and how much is offered we suppose.

Rumours are Jessica will be around, though Niki won't and that Nathan will live. Hell - just start injectng everyone with Claire blood already.

Have no clue and not bothered to think of what direction the story's going to go - but Tim Kring better do something to make sure Volume III doesn't disappoint like Volume II.
It really wasn't all that bad - and some parts of this episode I kind of enjoyed because it was fast paced, let's hope they keep the momentum up next season.

For America's Next Top Model, I won't even bother to go into it.

Bianca got her ghetto booty kicked off the show... about time! But we knew it was going to happen. She kept b****ing throughout this episode - but I honestly think things have slowed down without Heather and Lisa.

Jenah is boring me, but Miss Redneck comes out tops in the challenge and brought Chantal along for the prize of getting a couture traditional outfit as well as scoring a 1 on 1 catwalk session with Miss J (THAT'S a prize???!!!).

Another freak shot... is that you, Diana Ross?

By panel, Chantal had proven she rocks, and was the first called out. Bianca meanwhile - gets out of our lives finally. Sheesh - gurl... you haven't learned nothing. Your poses are as weak as your sad-assed excuses.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Here are the collective four solo shots, and a group shot - as taken by the cow names Tyra Banks.

Clockwise - Jenah, Bianca the butch b***h, Chantal and Saleisha



So only three girls remain (taking out of Tyra's ever creative monologue - who will be... America's Next Top Model? Erm... not too hard to guess based on judge's choice. Still will be cheering for Chantal (she's the one in the middle if you don't know) and cursing Tyra leading into the final show.


Thank God I'm done with those reviews. No Heroes from next week - so I get a break, while only one more episode of ANTM to go before my life resumes to normal without me looking out for each episode of both programs which I so hate, but am addicted to.

Esok pagi is Sharifah Aleya's nikah ceremony, so I gotta sleep now.

I'll post the picture of the ceremony ASAP by noon ok, so watch out for those.

Tyra is a cow!

The whole two last episodes of America's Next Model in episode 10 and episode 11 appear to be engineered to eliminate favourites, especially MY favourites in Lisa and Heather.

Somehow - things always seem to be just against them. Oh well... big effing deal. I'm gonna keep watching anyway to b***h about the show, despite things being crap at the moment, and the only person I have left to root for is Chantal.

In episode 10 - Lisa seemed to be the planned victim for elimination with Heather being the in lead in for the next elimination. Obvious sangat.

Saleisha and Bianca's bullying was was simply too much. From them thrashing her during packing to go to China. Saleisha, taking the double bed, and not wanting to share, leaving with Heather without a bed is just juvenile. Very model-esque...

Heather definitely needs an ass whooping, but not from them. Honestly, she still kicks ass when it comes to pictures, and Tyra is just crap for wanting stereotype models, walaupon asik kata nak something different.

For the first challenge of posing while flying on wires, Heather rocked by performing the best! Bianca meanwhile chickened out and cried like hell as she looked at Heather all ready as they both were paired off.

So much for ghetto chick. Boo ya!

Bianca was disqualified from the challenge and Heather won the overall challenge.
Erm...someone tell Jenah she looks like a clumsy cow - and also let Chantal and Saleisha know that it's KUNG-FU and not karate they're doing. I think they just insulted the people of China.
Anyway Heather won a shopping spree and brought Chantal.

For the photo shoot, it's time for the Covergirl shoot.

Saleisha is a Valley girl, and totally so fake and bubbly with commercial qualities. But forget high fashion.

Bianca just doesn't own it, and I don't know why she's come this far. But I love her reason for being a Covergirl queen.

"I have flaws, but I make them beautiful."

Still - the fact that she didn't do the challenge, and looked like an overpuffed drag queen was just horrible, and her reason for being a queen was no reason to save her.

Matilah Laurielle.

Heather did badly during the shoot - admittedly.
But I don't see a reason why Bianca is there. She turned down a challenge for God's sake! She should go.

All the girls struggled... and they weren't all that different. I think the best would have been Chantal. She IS a Covergirl.

Lisa struggled too - and it's obvious she and Heather are the weakest in the public speaking department - but since when has THAT ever been such a dominating criteria of being a a model?
Lisa's photgraphy was fine! and even Jenah was sucky in her commercial. Still, in the end it was Lisa and Heather in the bottom two. F**k!!!

Arghhh!!!

Systematic elimination!


The judges are obviously showing favour towards Saleisha, and it's no surprise thst they've identified her as the winner... the LOUSIEST butt-ass boring model ever picked on the show.
Check out Lisa's portfolio. Saleisha... go back where you came from!


In episode 11 - Heather was the next. After being in the bottom two last week with Lisa, we knew Heather was going home. No matter how good she could have done, it wouldn't have saved her. The show is bloody rigged.

Heather messed up on the go-see simply because of her condition, tapi while that's no excuse, come on!!!

Bianca looked horrendous and still she's there.

As the next challenge takes place in Beijing, it's obvious with Heather gone - the judges are hard pressed. Mesti kencing dalam seluar punya. With Chantal being the only popular favourite, the judges have to decide between her and Saleisha, Bianca and Jenah which they've been pushing from the start. But since we already know the winners... oh well.

Tyra goes on to how Jenah and Heather, both of whom are in the bottom two, are the strongest in the photos - but have problem commiunicating.

Blah blah blah Tyra. I curse you to bloat up again!

Despite her condition, I'm sure she'll work it and have a bright future in modelling. Heather... not Tyra.

"The experience is much more than the prize" was what Heather's parting words were.
Aw.... isn't that just touching.


Not much suspense for what's coming up. Getting sick of seeing Tyra for now. And someone tell Miss J to get some work done on his face AND hair. Talk about setting a bad example for the girls. Enough already...

So these four remain... and I don't really want to know about Saleisha winning. Puke!



Damn Streamyx... my line has been wonky so am not going to stay online long. Toodles!

Heroes - leading up the final - a double!

So I've been really busy and all, but so sorry lah guys sebab aku lambat sangat update. Plus, aku janji nak review, yang tangguh sampai dua minggu punya worth tak posting langsung.

Anyway, here are the reviews of two episodes of Heroes back to back for you guys, if you're following it on free TV, ko baru nak layan season one lupakan jer lah. Kejam I know... but tu meka yang nak layan Astro, bookmark my blog cause you're going to need it (the spoilers sebelom nih apply kalao ko masih lom tau).

So here it goes...

Previously... on Heroes. Two episodes lagik.
In episode nine, Cautionary Tales, here's what happens (aku malas so I'm putting it point by point on developments.

-Noah starts the family packing, and Claire picks a fight because she's pissed about what happened to West as her hormones take over. Drama moment! She says, "I hate you!" to daddy with the horn rimmed glasses!

Ooh! Claire picks up a new hobby and piles up rocks spelling SORRY to West. She could have just picked up the phone, because either way West doesn't give a flying you know what for her apology.

He does fly into Noah - and they both put their past behind to save Claire.
Daddy meanwhile goes "You've gone native!" as Mohinder sets him and Elle gets ready to bug zap him. West flys into Elle (bad habit of his).

Isaac's next painting to come true

-Father issues are also big, as Hiro buries father Kaito. He pops back in time a week before to try to save his father. His father allows himself to be saved. Hiro, after massive live flashbacks - agrees not to be so childish with his powers. He does however get to identify his father's killer as Adam Monroe, also known as Takezo Kensei.

-One half of the two dads in Matt - is having parental issues as he starts experiencing with the dark side of his power in using his mental magic to get Molly to do what he wants, including eating her cereal (there must be an easier way!) He uses it further to get back into the Kaito Nakamura case.
He also uses it on Angela Petrelli

-Mohinder is hopeless as always, and tries to get Claire's blood to save Nikki (bad excuse... I would just let Nikki die). Elle, Bob's daughter, plays executioner to deal with Noah in case he gets in the way.

He gets the company standard issue gun (like du-uh....so much for his willpower when he knew about Isaac Mendez's painting)

He sets up Noah.

-Bob visits Claire and freaks her out at being discovered. freaks out. He gets more than he bargains for when Elle gets caught by Noah - and uses her power to her disadvantage.

Note : How to make sure an electricity zapping person is secured when caught. Place her in bucket of water so if she tries zapping you - she'll electrocute herself.

Noah gets the best line "Stings like a b***h doesn't it?" He also reveals to Elle how she was also subject to the Company's experiments, obviously remembering none of it thanks to the Haitian.

Stings like a b****h doesn't it?

Bob takes Claire's blood before the trade.

Trade takes place - and surprise surprise - Noah gets shot, after Elle bolts West and Claire, and he tries to blow Bob and Mohinder goes cuckoo.
Isaac was always good in art class. Until he freaked everyone out...

We find out however Noah isn't dead and in the final scene - his eyeball grows back and he comes back alive - thanks to the infusion of Claire's blood, thanks to Mohinder.

Most beautiful moment - When the carp delivers his non-eulogy to his father as the scenes from every thing else cuts into place. Touching... oh, also Claire's mother finally gets a name - Sandra.

In episode ten, we learn that the Shanti virus, was apparently - according to Adam, created by Victoria Pratt, as we learnt last episode, the only remaining elder and founder of the company.
Adam convinces Peter that they have to look for the virus to destroy it to avoid a breakout.

Lucky for Adam, Peter IS as stupid as he looks.

He even believes Adam is right when he blasts Victoria, despite her saying that Adam was going to kill her. This guy isn't going to be joining Mensa soon that's for sure. We however learn that the powers of regeneration - while may mean immortality, it stops at getting your head blown up - which is the point of no return. It must also hurt a lot.

-Truth and Consequences begins with that, and Bob bringing Noah's 'ashes'. More pain theraphy as West plays angel to Claire. Aw... how sweet. Note to producers - the ash-dumping scene would have been made more meaningful if we had known Noah wasn't alive.

-Daddy issues continue as Elle, begins to feel resentment towards her domineering father. Bob meanwhie is faced with Mohinder's demand to rid the company of it's virus stash.
After of course he creates a cure when he comes across a possible cure when he injects himself with Claire's blood.

Mohinder meanwhile sucks at playing daddy when he leaves Molly alone. Both Mohinder and Matt really have to work out who keeps the day job and who is a stay home mom....

-Niki goes back to Micah to tell him she's got the virus, as her son's comic book stash is stolen by his cousin, who gets jacked. Seriously... big time crooks wanting comic books???!!! Micah is pissed because daddy's medal is in there (father issues again) and cousin Monica plays hero and tries to get back his stuff, and gets caught. Suspense! Never mind the bad rip-off of Spiderman - with the costume inspiration theme.

How original...

-Sylar convinces Maya her brother hates her and teaches her to control her powers. Maya dumps her brother (sibling issues are ok, we've outdone the father issues) for Sylar, sampai dia leh tak caya her own brother that Sylar is a killer, believing that he's as misunderstood as her.

Oh please. Can you say, STUPID?

Sylar even goes on to kill Alejandro who attacks him - and ends up snogging Maya. How's that for evil! Yes, Alejandro dies.

-Hiro finds the link to who Kensei is, and hunts down Adam after finding out where the virus is. He freezes time when he arrives to find Peter with Adam.

Peter doesn't get frozen in, and the episode ends with a showdown of both. Can they both kill themselves? Kind of sick of them. But if you've read the spoilers I gave several weeks ago - you already know the outcome of everything that's going to happen.

Sword versus lightning bolt... gee.. who's going to win?

The highlight - Next week's finale when everything thankfully comes to an end for them to think of a better season that the not-so-good season two - in no part made better by the Hollywood writer's strike.

The finale showdown?


Shit!!! (oops...pardon my French) This means Heroes will end next week, so if Chantal is eliminated from America's Next Top Model next, I won't have anything to watch. Damn!


PS - I'll post a double review of America's Next Top model tomorrow, when both my favourites are sadly outed. Damn you Tyra! I hope you bloat up again.
