Singapore Idol bloopers :)

Currently Listening to =>Linkin Park - Numb
This post is mainly inspired by the Singapore Idol re-run that I saw last night on TVMobile.

Singapore Idol ... One of the best local comedies produced in Singapore! Some people on it (episode 1) were seriously comical.

First of all, there was Mr.Judge - Ken himself. His peering over his spectacles to give his 'evaluations' seemed like a granny peering over her rimmed glasses! But Dick was really good and funny. Doughlas and the lady were also fine.

Now the contestants. There was the stripper-guy of course. There was Mr.Rocky, the pop-guy flying in here all the way from Shanghai (who incidentally gets kicked out despite his most adament assertions that he is 'amongst the top 10 in the world' and that 'we 'would not be' regret' if we let him go on. There was the girl who cried like a kindergarten school girl seperated from her mum for the first time in her life. Then there was the guy who fainted from the 'fear' of singing in front of them (Oh give me a break!). And there was the 'lemon-tree guy' (Read more about him here). Then the guy who said he was gonna sing "'Somewhere only we know' by Guy sebastian" and ended up singing Sonewhere out there ... Quite a few more funny characters ...

Oh one more girl who interested me in that series. A muslim girl who sang decently - but was then told by the judges to improve her personality. And her reply was something like : 'Ok ... I'll change a bit - but not a complete makeover. Because I like the way I look now'. Thats it. She sealed doom for herself. The judges refused to give her the 'yellow slip'. And she could just have said an 'ok'. Who asked you to speak so much??!! Another thing. If you have watched 'The Apprentice', you should have learnt that one of the main criterion to remain in a competition is to beg for your post ... and to try to influence the judges opinion. This girl was like - 'Oookkk' and walks off ... Well, I again think that if she has stuck on, she might just have convinced them that she would improve her attire etc and got the green light.

Ok that abt it for now. Singapore Idol sure promises to be a bag of jokes for many more weeks to come! AMI was talent in singing ... well ... the talent here is in many other aspects ;)
