Talent speaks louderlah Adam Lambert




I dont get why people just do stupid stuff considering knowing the heavy consequences and impact. I'm talking about Adam Lambert during his AMA show where viewing audience are normal public people with general interest. His singing was great as it is and his show without the overly narcissist and sexual shenanigans were good enough. Watch the video to understand what im saying. What a shame and a waste of talent. Due to this there were over 1500 complains and a few shows cancelled on him.

Madonna playing with herself was controversial but she did it at her concert and to herself. JT and Janet Jackson wardrobe failure was unintentionally or seems unintended. Akon grinding a minor was supposedly in a over 21 club and even Zidanes infamous headbutt was spur of the moment and provoked (I still think Materazi is a schmuck and deserves it). All this public notorious incident is unfortunate events that was unplanned or for viewers who anticipates this kind of actions.

But in Adams case he planned everything and knows everything. Maybe he wanted to make a statement being gay and all. Being gay is one thing but showing too over zealous sexual showmanship to general public is too much to an extend its disgusting and disturbing. Groping, fingering, crotch grabbing is a biggg noooo never mind the guy to guy kissing.

Always let the talent speak for itself except if your Britney Spears or Paris Hilton.

ps.. I dont think there was an issue of lip-syncing cause he was a part of American Idol and if you watch carefully the video when he fell it there was a moment where the lead voice was absent.

Idol fever!

http://blog.nj.com/entertainment_impact_tv/2009/05/large_idol-final-2.jpg

Ok.. the result is out.. Kris Allen won.. I have nothing against Kris, but I always been a fan of Adam since the Hollywood Week. I think he's fresh, unique and very talented. Every week he surprised us with his wide vocal range and those high notes. He made every song, and sometimes unheard songs, into his own, and make it sounds great. Heck, I downloaded all his performances (semangat tol kan! hehe). My favorites are 'Tears of Heaven', 'Mad World' and 'Ring of Fire'.

Ok.. back to the finale. Kris is a wonderful artist too, just that he is way different than Adam. Most of my friends (you know who you are) like Kris better, maybe because of his cute looks and down-to-earth attitude. Even my husband like Kris, especially after he sang 'Heartless', which I think is a better version compared to Kanye West's take. He is without a doubt talented, together with his ability to play musical instrument and arrange the music to suit his style. My favorite is 'Aint no sunshine' and 'Heartless'. Oh, only my boss likes Adam among my friends, and he is a singer, so he understands how talented Adam is.. heheh..

But about the time of the Top 3 competition, I started to get a little bit Adam-fatigue. I think he just peaked too early. He kind of lost the magic touch, and his performances got a bit boring, predictable and more and more like screaming instead of singing. He's still good, but Kris and Danny are catching up with him. (I still a fan of you, Adam!) Nevertheless, the Top 4 rocks! I love Allison.. she rocks and only 17! wow! Also not to forget Danny, with his husky power voice.

Ok.. sidetrack again.. the finale was great!! I enjoyed all the performances, (except the queen latifah's one) especially adam singing with KISS and Queens! He was really in the zone! I think it's the best finale ever! Even Ryan Seacrest was entertaining and cracked lots of funny joke. The funniest performance was when Kara shocked the Bikini Girl out of her shells. And man, Kara can sing (better than Paula). She even shocked us with showing herself in bikini!

Both of them are really talented in their own way. I just think that Adam is the bigger star, and has more star power and charisma. Kris, you are adorable and sweet, but I don't know how well you will fare in the music scene. Somehow I think that America voted for Kris just so that Adam lose. Maybe they were turned off by his over-the-top and theatrical attitude, which I admit is sometimes really over-the-top.. hehe.. One thing for sure, I am looking forward for both of their album in the near future!

Oh well, idol fever is over. I will miss American Idol.. No more looking forward for Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Nothing to look forward to besides weekends :) No more breakfast talk on who will be out this week.. American Idol is the only show I diligently follow (ask my husband)... the rest of the time, the tv is conquered by Channel 613. And this season is the best so far (I strongly think because Adam sizzled up the competition)

American Idol.. see you in January for Season 9!


Yours Truly,
Dissapointed Adam's fan

Jom tengok movie!!

Must watch movies of the summer list!

1) Wolverine - Done. Enjoyed it all the way but adelah tak logic yg poyo sikit. The best part personally is that i believed it kept true to the characters and story. Even though i do not consider myself a "know all" x-men follower, the little i know was present in the movie. Wolverine selalu mengamuk, the best at what he does, rivalry and yada yada yada. So hardcore fans i think you'll enjoy this and to the others it does a good job explaining the true origins of Wolverine.

2) Star trek - next in line. don't really know much about it but how the wife keeps telling her friends were saying it was good. i guess i have to bring her to see it kalau tak nanti kena left out ngan geng dia. Nanti dia tak rasa cool lah or whatever.. kesiann dia (you know what i mean) :p

3) Terminator - Reallyyyyy excited about this one. Better not be dissapointing. i want to watch it without any expectation so that i can extra-ly be awed. especially if it relates all the previous movies and enhance the mystery of the whole saga. i want more questions and answers.

4) Transformer - The MOST excited of all. Nostalgic sentiments explains my excitment the best. I loved the first one when i watched it at Gold class TGV (the first time and wife belanja for my birthday - Best giler tak bini aku!!! lagi best sebab dia layan my 'semangat') . Every time bunyi dia transform "chichuchikchukchok" i will remember all the days i spend watching the cartoon siap ngan berangan transform sekali. So excittedd!! sounds childish but what the hell!

5) Harry porter - I have read the whole book series. Full of twists, turns & highly addictive. Personally i feel it revived the reading generation. But for those yg still malas baca/no time, this is the next best thing. but coming from previous movies it touches only half of the books. But imagining it while reading and actually watching it on the screens might be enlightening!
