SELECTED POSTS
This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is
actually the index page of this website has
grown into a huge database of my almost
daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to
my heart, including gossips of the most
sordid kind. For your convenience, I have
posted a list of posts which I thought is
pretty informative in my own way that you
might find interesting. The list itself may
be long but those selected few are the ones
I thought drives home the point I wanted to
make. Do check them out in
MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].
SERIES' SUMMARIES
Sometime in 2004 I began
reviewing selected
series in an episode by
episode way, where I
called these reviews
EPISODIC THOUGHTS.
These thoughts are
mostly summaries of each
and every episode with
my opinion of that
episode included in it
as well. I may not
provide the most in
depth summaries but I am
very proud of the fact
that I could keep the
writing on such a long
winded basis each and
every night for the
entirety of the series.
I don't do this for each
and every series though
because it kills a lot
of brain cells, mine as
well as fellow netizens
who often joined in the
discussion by posting
informative stuff. These
thoughts are still open
for feedback and
discussion. Do check
them all out in
REVIEWS where it is
indicated with an
[E]
next to my name.
OFFBEAT STUFF
There is this one
section in here that
features offbeat stuff
that are not
entertainment based. The
section is known as
FUNN STUFF
[COMMENTS & OPINIONS].

personal favourites of
all kinds.
THE DDGs [COMMENTS

American Idol Season 3
Permanent link ▫ ▫  
I have been following this and ASTRO is a bit slow in broadcasting the latest one. I am at the 3rd selection for the final 12.
First of all, I really like William Hung and his "She Bangs". Ok, it was funny the first time but after what he said about trying his best and not having regrets, he has my respect. Americans of course found him funny, as in a cruel way. Even Malaysians felt the same way. But I feel if we live in a society that has karaoke pubs, surely we can all see the beauty in this man's bravery? I have heard worst, like (I think) last year's Keith with his body hugging Like A Virgin! Glad to know Will has an album coming out!
Anyway back to Season three. I was very happy to see one of my favourite, Fantasia Barrino going through. Not only does she sound like Macy Gray, I believe she sings better than Macy Gray. I understood the word personality when I saw her perform. I also like Matthew Rogers probably because Simon Cowell disliked him. He really isn't that great a singer but I like him or what the Americans call it X Factor! There's one I feel is out of her league and that is Leah LaBelle. Saw her in the Wild Card show and shocked to know she got through. She can't sing and she can't even stand straight.
Now my absolute favourite didn't make it through, as I found out from the Wild Card show since I saw him there. None of the judges chose him and I wondered why. Seacrest said Simon said his performance was horrible. I am talking about Jon Peter Lewis. I remember watching his audition as he slept through waiting and being called a pen salesman. Then I saw his first solo performance in the show he didn't get through (I suspect many scenes were cut since I never get to hear him sing before). I was disappointed because he was very very good. For once a contestant that didn't scream when singing. I remember Simon said he didn't look like an American Idol. If that is the case, Clay Aitken or Ruben wouldn't have won because they aren't good looking either. It was his voice and the uniqueness of his voice that got me watching and listening. And the fact that all 3 judges didn't recognise the potential of his voice really made me realise none of them know who is the next idol or should be one. Anyway after hearing what Simon said, I was very disappointed. I always respected Simon's opinion and calling that Leah a great one is like a joke. I do think Jon Peter Lewis may not look like an American Idol, I can imagine him holding a grammy and being voted the best male singer. He looks like a serious singer with many years ahead of him. I was waiting for next week's show to see him get through when I saw the Wild Card show and I know he didn't get through. Of course for once the American viewers made a wise choice; he got through with I think 22% of the votes and this would mean so much more than to be voted in by the judges. or perhaps the judges discussed this first? I don't know. Then I realise why Simon said he was horrible. He sang Elvis' A Little Less Conversation and he danced a bit. Many may not like the way he danced I personally clapped at the end of his performance. He sang like a true professional (not sounding like Elvis at all!) and he performed like a true star. I can actually see him on the Grammy stage strutting his stuff.
So it's official. Even if he doesn't get through I hope he gets a record deal. I will buy his record.
My prediction?
Jon Peter Lewis
Fantasia Barrino
At this moment just two. I feel these two will be top 3 and I suspect either one will be no. 1 and the other no. 2. Luckilly it's the viewers who are voting and not the judges. Like that World Idol show, what the judges failed to see in the winner was this; sometimes looks isn't everything. We the viewers look at the talent, the voice and the performance. Like all TVB actors and actresses of course.
Tell me your predictions and your favourites my emailing me. I really hope to hear what you have to say about this show!
