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 [...]
2AM. They don’t speak English too well but they sure can sing.
Estranged. This is the actual view from where my seat was. So I found a better corner and maximised my camera’s zoom function.
Raygun. Their single ‘Just Because’ is really growing on us in the office.
Pixie Lott. She’s [...]
The last of my two-week celebrity spree. I’ve always been a far, far bigger fan of David’s voice than of his cutesy looks, but I can see why girls shriek for him and aunties want to adopt him. I don’t. I just want to hear him sing. And I was very proud to see that [...]
Feeling exceedingly sociable, I attended the press conference earlier this evening. There have been lots of talk about the international lineup, rumours about Coldplay coming that are getting everybody all excited. The PR people have been working hard to ensure a good press conference turnout, so I decided to make a rare trip to Pavilion [...]
They said she was too sexy and a bad influence. But they eventually gave in and the show went on. The spoilsports had their own fun, giving out flyers at the entrance of the stadium. See, now everybody is happy.

According to some latest reports and a radio DJ, Avril Lavigne’s concert is now back on. I’m waiting for an official newspaper announcement, but more importantly, I’m most curious to see what excuse will be given for the sudden about-turn.
August 23, 2008: The newspaper confirmation. And the official line is… there isn’t [...]
I am so angry right now I can’t even adequately express it in words. News has gone out that Malaysia has cancelled the 29 August Avril Lavigne concert because “it is not timely. It’s not in the good spirit of our National Day,” according to an official from the Arts, Culture and Heritage Ministry.

I could never do the groupie thing, she realised as she watched the screaming, waving throng. A little jumping, lots of cheering, some singing along, plenty of clapping, that was about the extent of it. Perhaps it just wasn’t in her to offer such devotion to a celebrity, rock star or not; she certainly could [...]
I can now officially say I’ve seen Gwen Stefani in concert, live and up close. Obviously, an interview and photoshoot with Gwen, Gavin Rossdale and Kingston would have been the ideal, but a million dollars ain’t gonna fall on my head when I walk out the door tomorrow morning and we do [...]
I can’t believe we were that close /
I can’t believe we queued slash waited for seven hours /
You need to do something crazy once in your life /
Maybe twice /
Or thrice /
I didn’t even need to look at the screens /
Yep we were [...]
