A while ago, I blogged about how excited I was to be interviewing Dia Frampton. Finally, here’s a link to the story, which was recently published in hot Magazine, Issue 194. I had to shorten it for print due to space restraints, but you can read the full-length version here. (Please [...]
This is all kinds of awesome because the PS22 Chorus is amazing, inspiring and an example of everyday people touching the world and making a difference, and Yuna is a constant reminder that success does come to the talented and hardworking. Yes, I know luck also plays a part, but I like to think [...]
I was so excited to be interviewing Dia Frampton that I almost forgot to turn on my voice recorder. Which would have been quite disastrous and totally unprofessional.
I interview a lot of people in my line of work, and I usually get butterflies right before I speak to a star because I’m so excited. [...]
I heard about Whitney Houston’s passing on the radio yesterday morning. I almost never listen to the radio on Sundays, but it so happened that Jessie and I had gone out to what I call the never-ending hill in Taman Tun in a long overdue attempt to exercise, and I was on my way [...]
The Trouble Tones are so awesome it made me miss Blaine being in The Warblers a little less. This is easily one of my favourite Glee performances of all time. And I love how Santana (Naya Rivera) is really getting to spread her wings.
For Chinese New Year this year, we did something different. We visited my mum-in-law’s side of the family in California, which was equal parts thrilling (because I’d never been) and terrifying (because I have an almost two-year-old).
There’s nothing like a 29-hour journey, including transit time and travel time to and from the airports, to [...]
One of my favourite tracks from The Kitchen Musical, which I’ve been trying to catch every week. Also, this was kind of our theme song for a while when my sister and I were living together in Melbourne.
Friends tell me that watching a show in non-HD (what’s the correct term for that?) doesn’t [...]
Maybe it was the fact that I’ve only travelled once – to Melbourne in December last year – in the 15 months since Kaylin arrived. That I would be doing press for The Kitchen Musical didn’t hurt, being a huge musical fan myself.
I’ll admit to being a little skeptical about the show at first, [...]
I managed to catch MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2011 on the telly yesterday, and although nothing beats watching Jared Leto’s eyes the concert live and on giant HD screens, I stayed with it anyway. As I had been at the concert, I was struck by the energy and passion of the performances, and [...]
Say what you like about American Idol, but at least you know that those who go the distance – and even some who don’t – can really sing. There’s probably no better crash course in singing and live performance in all of Hollywood, so it’s no wonder so many of those who have graduated with [...]
