Cutie pie

Tiga jam. As usual outstation tidur tak penah cukup. Sama la ari ni. Lebih tiga jam or so je tidur. Bangun as usual jadi zombi Kampung Pisang (am so not a morning person). By the time check out, da time for lunch. Yeay! No nasi kandar... carik gak kedai Melayu nak makan.

Pastu ke Eastin Hotel lokasi tuk press conference ngan Amy Mastura.

Tuh dia si Amy comel dok nak signing ngan Takasima (motif terkesima sangat), as ambassador for their products.

Seperti biasa, obsesi dengan apa yang menghiasi kaki wanita. Comel sangat kasut Amy nih, kena ngan gaya dia yang sempoi dan bersahaja.

And of course, the cute mother yang da umor 39 tapi kalao bagi watak dak uni baru awal 20an pon dia mampu nak carry.b Seriously Amy is one woman that gets prettier with age. Kagum especially since dia jenis tak amik pot rupa dia sangat.. biasa-biasa je.

Pas abih, lepak jap and then gegas nak tinggalkan Penang. Sampai... about 9pm. Matilah enam jam!!!

Kali ni trip seronok even though a little too short.

Ok la.. takleh blog panjang. Nak kena gi pujuk orang yang majuk ni...

Penang overnight

Walaopon bakal meletihkan, gi Penang for assignment nak layan press conference Amy Mastura kat sana. Aiyo... motif wat nun jauh? Takpe... dapat gak peluang nak tinggalkan KL. Bila jauh baru appreciate, baru rindu - cam seseorang yang ditinggalkan sana yang merajuk ngan aku sebab aku terlupa bagitau.

Anyway the journey was seriously tiring. Lambat sampai satu hal (biasa la kalao da bergerak ramai-ramai on the road). Yang lagi sakit hati, traffic jam.

Sebab apa? Kalao korang baca Twitter aku, korang paham la... musim puasa nak mai, so that means persiapan Raya pon da mula da. Which means? Merata la road block. Paham-paham la... dua minggu ni everywhere around the Klang Valley road block je keja. Time jam je polis trafik ilang ke sibuk wat benda lain...

Ni sebelom Teluk Intan... merasalah jam berapa kilometer. Turns out jam in the middle of nowehere sebab?

Tuh dia... ish ish ish. Boleh tak kalao speed trap ke haper pakai camera ke apa. This kind of road block should seriously reduced sebab bila ada human contact, there is obviously an exposure to possible abuse. In other words, unscrupulous individuals or such wat kedai kopi la jawabnya.

Sampai da malam. Checked into B Suite and pastu makan....

Damn... perlu ke mai Penang je nasi kandar.

Tapi takpe, kak Yaya ada nak lepak skali, together with Sam and I so dapat jalan-jalan Penang carik makan dan sebagainya. Yeay! Be blogging more tomorrow...

Clues

Yesterday was another event.... Gawd...there's a string of them this week. And I already have another line of events for next week. Pening siot. Everyday ada jerk.

But bayangkan kalao aku yang keja yang berderet event, camna lah hidup artis time bulan posa nih. Dok kena usung sana sini for event berbuka posa yang neverending for a whole month.

Anyway...hah...ni ada story sikit. I mentioned ada some projects in work, well actually ada dua.

But here's one of them. And here's the clue...

The Fabulous Cats - ngan pose memacam...


Ahli Fiqir - Tukang Kata lak takde...


Dayang Nurfaizah - finally.... a pose worth it!

And that's the clue. What do The Fabulous Cats, Ahli Fiqir and Dayang Nurfaizah have in common? Well, apart from being at the rakaman Rumah Terbuka Melodi semalam?

Well, it's not confirmed, but these three names are in the list at the moment for a little project I'm helping out with, and tunggu confirmation subject to dates. Not to mention that several more (Adam and Jac perhaps?), kalao jadik. Kalao nak tau kena tunggu lar ek dalam seminggu dua nih tuk aku confirm.

Until then, I am not going to give away much. The second lagik ler rahsia, so can't even give any clues about that.

And by the way Cat, kalao ko read this, about that offer to join up for your project, just buzz me ok and let me know.

Meanwhile, since entry ni akan banyak gambar, let's get on with it.
Antara my two favourite divas - Aishah and Adibah Noor!


The two sisters kick off their shoes for a pic.


Yazer tetap maintain...


Fasha Sandha.. manis nyaaaa (jangan marah ah..Fasha yang nak amik pic ngan aku)



Sweet couples... Khai dan Rosma... dan Sarah dan tunang dia.


Favourite diva Boo Boo... Ziana Zain. Tetap vogue...


Ayu dan manis, Amy Mastura and Nora.


Misha...


Nita dan Farhan...


Sharifah Zarina... so cute and girlish...comeinya!


Ramai lagik yang hadir semalam tapi aku tak larat nak amik pics bebanyak sangat (dreading pikir nak upload seketul seketul...pening) Lagikpon, dalam seminggu dua nih dah banyak sangat event, kena gi, so there will be a lot more pics and videos from that, cukup ler wat entry nih ek.

Just make sure kalao korang nak amik pics ni nak tempek mana mana, please credit me and add a link to here ok... again it's only fair to respect the source kan?

Semalam was a weird day. My not too distant past haunted me. First someone who was in my life and decided to disappear, decides to reappear and make like everything was alright. Not angry, just confused... what makes someone think they can do that without explaining themselves or apologising?

And the cheek to blame us on being angry for making like nothing happened. Oh well... time will tell.

Then there's this Dia... whose been b****ing about me ton kingdom come. Oh well... entah lah. For me, it's simply obvious now that there are small minded people about, and I can only do my best to tolerate it.

Tengok camna la...ok...popping a Xanax and going to bed with my newest read, Undead and Unwed by Mary Janice Davidson (not to be confused with Janice Dickinson).

Until tomorrow...

Echo still rules!

I've been so busy that nak update blog memang kira luxury la sekarang. Still...I promise myself kena at least three updates a week, so I'm keeping to that by trying my best to not be too backdated la in my postings. Lagipun...lama-lama sangat...pening korang nak baca panjang-panjang. Aku pun tak larat baca kang.

Today was weird rush day for me (not going into yesterday cause it started bad...and ended up just ok).

Pening migraine...tapi got to Planet Hollywood on time for my assignment...until I bumped into my friend Sharina yang keja sana and found out that I was actually early! ONE BLOODY WEEK EARLY TO BE EXACT!

Apparently I had made the stupid mistake of thinking it was this Thursday when it was actually minggu depannya. Cam sial! Habis clash dengan aku nak ke Sabah.

Malas nak pikir how I'm going to attend that AND catch my flight to Kota Kinabalu.
So anyway...jumpa peminat telenovela and ajak skali gi just across the road to JW Marriot where they were having PC tuk pelancaran Bcuz Of You (kalau dengar ERA tau ler movie tu kan). Alang-alang da in the area kan...

Masa sampai kat function room (silap sebab ada lak dua tempat yang dibooking walaupun the first place kita pegi tu tak pakai langsung), terkejut sebab nampak Kristine Hermosa dan Diether Ocampos just duduk berpegang tangan kat couch luar bilik function. Rupanya meka dok luar tunggu nak diannounce tuk masuk.

So apa agi? Da meka tegur, so aku pun layan la sok sek.

Diether said Kristine kena flu, so dia cam lemau semacam. Poor thing. Still...she was friendly and really warm.

Later had a nice chat with them again bila masuk interview sekali ngan kawan, Michelle dari Melodi TV3. Pic bawah belah kiri tu Michelle yang dok interview meka tu. Last pic tu amik ler kesempatan aku nak abadikan kenangan...tapi tak berani dekat sebab didn't want to catch any germs from Kristine (matilah aku kena carut ngan Kristine bila aku cakap camtuh - gelak sat). Aduh...kena diet lagi! Nampak debab abih pic...ni kes salah angle ni....kes naya! Siot je....

Finish je rush balik office, habiskan column aku. Tengah jalan, kena rush ke Hits 1 lak nak follow up gossip issue (baca paper Jumaat ni tau ler pasai apa). Lepak sampai habis full dress rehearsal. Mula-mula bosan sikit walaupun ramai artis yang hadir.

Sharifah Zarina dan Azharina cam biskut Chipsmore...kejap ada kejap takde. Mawi cam blur terpikirkan entah apa, Misha lak dok tepi ngan kengkawan dan desara mara. Jac focus habis...so last-last aku lepak ngan bebudak V.E. je (Cham ler) as well as Dayang dan best sekali yang bagi kami gelak cam orang gila yang terlampau gila....Amy Mastura.

Seriously she is just so fun to be with. Aku da lama tak lepak apa-apa event ngan Amy and I forgot what a barrel of laughs she can be. Dahler aku dan Dayang asik gelak dia melatah....bila tak melatah pun sama!

Cita sampingan...dalam nak kejutkan kak Amy melatah, si Cham mintak aku torture...sebab dia tak berani cucuk Amy. So aku pun lepaskan ler bunyi "POW!!!" sekuat alam...rupanya bukan je si Amy melatah habis...si Cham leh join in duet lak. Aduh! Pecah lobang! Melatah jugak rupanya mamat ni!

Selama ni kenal dia tatau lak....

Ok...best moment of the night must be bila joget ala gadis kabaret masa Pop Ye Ye. Si Dayang pun layan!!!

Amy start je dengan character dia...Dayang pun goyang sekali...last last wat tarian entah apa...wat pose pose je...ala vogue tak jadi. Kelakar habis...sempat ler berhibur...nak harapkan lawak kat pentas...erm...tak selawak yang diharapkan...

Aku amik gambar tarian meka ni...walaupun tangan berat nak amik pics sebab malas campur letih campur ngantuk...tapi sorry ler guys cause tak clear sangat. Backstage gelak cam @#$%^. Entah ler kenapa meka kemut sangat proper funding tuk perbaiki Auditorium Perdana ni. Harapkan dari luar saja cantik....tengok backstage cam khemah pelarian!

Anyway...balik topik si Amy ni...tagline dia kalau kena usik...dia hanya jawab, "Jangan...nanti emosi aku terganggu...doktor marah!" (I suppose that makes sense...in a nonsensical fashion!) Anyway, time flew past with her...and headed back to the office about midnight.

Ni baru habis kerja nak ada masa nak update blog sikit. Esok 11 pagi da ada appointment lauching album lak. Event EMI dan Maestro with Mawi lak. Then malam nak gi layan Hits 1 live kat Angkasapuri lak (nak gelak tengok kak Amy wat tarian Pop Ye Ye dia lagi).

Guys...jangan lupa the special preview for Netizens ye untuk Buli Balik. Tengok my last posting for info ek and book your seats fast. Like I said...kalau kerja ke...ada kelas ke apa ke...PONTENG!!!! Sehari je! And it'll be fun! At least warga-warga online semua ada alasan nak berkumpul...mesti meriah!

Wokei laa...dah lewat ni....esok update blog je la lagi ek......

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!!!- EXCLUSIVE

Ishk....masuk bulan puasa ni berat badan asik naik...takut lak nak timbang. I've not been feeling well, so nak posa lak...bukan tak leh...but I've grown ever more dependent on my ciggys to get through the day.

Especially since work has been piling. Setiap hari ada assignment...bukan satu...kekadang dua atau tiga. Nak carik stock cita Raya...kalau tak kang Raya nak call sapa lak dapat cita.

So since Monday...buka puasa events have gone into full swing!

On Monday...buka puasa kat Red 104.9 punya event kat Sungtei Wang. Ramai gak artis....tapi rasa pelik semacam sebab berbuka kat tengah-tengah mall camtu. I mean it's definitely kind of weird that you're stuffing your face when people around you are shopping. Anyway...

My baby sister in Nikki was with Ning skali...nak jadi cerita...si Adam pun ada. Apa agik.

Photo opportunity terus ler...dah alang-alang orang kampung berjumpa kan...nak gak pic dia ngan family aku agik satu...kuarga Fantasia...

Tak sabar aku album dia akan keluar sometime next month (kena rahsia sikit...bagi suspen!)
Tapi kan...ni pun ada berita yang ditunggu-tunggu oleh peminat Akademi Fantasia who has heard and know how great Nikki sounds. Tunggukan ada surprise dalam album dia. Apa dia? Takleh cita lagi! Nak tau...tungguuuu!!! Let's just say it's a nice surprise.

Sebenarnya posting ni kalau ikutkan banyak sangat benda nak tulis, tapi malas ler nak panjang-panjang (kena hamun je for trying to outdo myself each time for the longest posting ever title kan).

So walaupun banyak cita...cukup ler ek aku kongsi kan beberapa pics from each event.
Dari buka puasa Red 104.9 tu, antaranya (my favourites ler) ada gak Ning Baizura, Amy Mastura (album baru keluar minggu ni yeah! - suka dia sejak Asia Bagus) dan Dayang Nurfaizah.

The pics below, si Ning tengah diinterview abang Nas Melodi. Si Amy dan Dayang saja mintak meka pose! Pergh! Amy masih maintain kan??!!





Sambung cita.Semalam lak gi buka posa RIM. Which in case you don't know, is the Recording Industry of Malaysia ler.

Ramai artis gak. Adus...banyak kerja lagi. Of course, being one of the top artistes around, Ning was there and protege dia Nikki pun ada tuk dikenalkan pada industri which she will be active in soon.

Tapi kan...selain Zahid,my baby bro and Farah, dua agi anggota famili Fantasia hadir...which is Felix dan Marsha!

Seronoknya dapat jumpa agik. Dah last time jumpa Felix pun masa nak ciao rakaman Dari Studio 1 (sejak tu sempat call je) and Marsha (call tak dapat-dapat sebab ada problem with one of her numbers ke phone-so dia bagi another number just in case).

Sebelum apa-apa...hah since dah penah amik pic Marsha ngan Nikki skali (masa tu with Ning pun ada kat Anugerah Era), kali ni amik pic ngan Felix lak with Nikki. Sorang Dusun, sorang Kadazandusun...still...kategori orang kampung ler. Stok bawah bayu...

Hah! Ni now on to story more yang patutnya.

Since ada pelawat-pelawat blog tanya aku beberapa soalan tuk diajukan kat Marsha, so I decided to ask her. Betul ke besides the stuffed toy of a donkey yang Mawi bagi dia kat Brunei, betul ke dia dapat sepasang baju kurung dari Mawi as well? Jawapan Marsha : Memang tidak betul sama sekali. Sapa lah bawak cerita ni...

Dan soalan seterusnya yang ramai entah mana dapat...sapa ler jejaka berambut panjang yang ngan Marsha quite often tu....bila aku tanya Marsha...dia garu pala kejap.

Last-last...dia pun kata...mesti aku (sebelum potong rambut) sebab memang takde orang lain dia kenal rambut panjang yang dia manja-manja with. So pada mereka yang tanyakan aku soalan tu, lain kali tengok muka betul-betul...mana tau aku ke...kalau tak...bukan aku...amik lokasi dan masa the sighting so I can ask Marsha. But I am inclined to believe my baby sister.

Anyway...ni beberapa pics of and with them (sebab lama gak tak amik pic ngan Felix-Marsha memang aku tak jemu nak amik pic ngan dia...comei sangat)





Ok...tadi ada sebut Mawi kan...ni ada kena mengena mengenai album dia yang ditunggu-tunggu, Aduh Saliha.

Mawi's solo debut yang dijadualkan keluar di pasaran pada 21hb dah DISAHKAN akan ditangguh untuk empat hari lagi. The new release date adalah pada 25 Oktober 2005.

Aku da dimaklumkan kenapa...tapi takleh sebut ler. BUT!!! What I can say is..the extra four days makes the album worth waiting a whole lot more...trust me.

Esok aku akan keluarkan my full review of Aduh Saliha....(kalau sempat ler aku...esok banyak pun assignment...ada tiga!!!)

Apapun...untuk peminat Linda pulak...memanmg album dia pun ditangguhkan. Yang aku dengar pasal ada bab kelulusan yang taking up some time, sebab CD kan mengandungi bonus VCD clips dari persembahan Linda di konsert-konsert...Bab Lembaga Penapisan Filem ler ni (as usual, my only response to them is BOO!)

Ok ler...nak sambung wat keja. Sat agi ada press conference Juara Lagu untuk umumkan 30 lagu yang layak ke separuh akhir. Kalau nak tau, setakat ni ler...yang aku tau da layak dari keluarga Fantasia, Tangisan dalam Kerinduan (dinyanyikan Farah), Milikku (nyanyian Zahid), Memori Bahagia (nyanyian Sahri) dan Aduh Saliha (nyanyian Felix...eh Mawi).

Aku kang posting lebih-lebih dalam ni kang ek....

As Tigger would say it TTFN!!! Tata For Now!!!
