I am not excited with the introduction - don't get me wrong, I love the kids but what I don't like is, it was like promoting Aznil's upcoming show which is to me shouldn't happen in concert!

I don't like the blue buttons - kalo perlu juga, press after the persembahan and NOT during the show! It would de-motivate the students.

I hate the ala-ala Penyampaian Anugerah! It bored me to death. Why give advice during the concert? Why not during their classes?

Salleh Yaacob's vt? What for? I didn't laugh a bit.

Rizal - despite his pronunciation, I think I like his performance - It could be because of the song :)

Shawal - masih lemah dalam kawalan suara

Heliza - gara-gara berlagak pandai, lenggok suara tidak kena. Terlalu banyak lenggok pulak tu, rosak lagu Misha

Aswad - biasalah, namapun dangdut

Candy - no doubt she has the voice but tarian agak kureng sikit, sakit mata tengok dia ke kiri ke kanan - but who cares with the tarian. This is a singing competition - suara lebih penting.

Ebi - again konsentrasi terganggu. Kali ini by the blue button. Before him, Candy dapat 4 blue buttons so bila Ebi nyanyi dia tidak nampak lampu biru. Only towards the end of his persembahan ada lampu biru but then it was too late already. Persembahan dia dah rosak.

Dafi - I can only credit him of his mandarin. The rest nothing much to say.

Aizat - Not really outstanding. Cuma dia diberi pujian because dia nyanyi a big song of Anuar Zain.

Mila - proud of her coz she nailed a song which carried by 3 orang. Just like Candy bawa lagu 3Diva.

PILIHAN SELEPAS KONSERT:
Mila & Candy

SEPATUT KELUAR:
Heliza

MENYEMAK MATA:
Kehadiran pengkritik ke-4. Nangis pulak tu!

From Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia teams now has to travel to Hong Kong. There was another airport chaos! Only the Cha-Cha team secured an early flight through China Airlines. The Beauty Queens and the Cousins took Malaysian Airlines. The dating couple wasted their time changing money at the RHB Bank which made them stuck on the latest flight.

In Hong Kong, the Chas team encountered the 2nd Fast Forward of the Race. If I were not mistaken, in previous Races, team who had taken the FF would not be allowed to take another FF. To me this rule is fair. But I think they've changed the rule when the Chas team went for the FF.

The Detour of this leg was a choice between Kung Fu Fighting and Lost in Translation. AGAIN! the Cousins made an unsure decision. Luckily Charla made a last minute decision to go for the Kung Fu Fighting. The Cousins also mistakenly instruct their taxi driver to take them to Hong Kong Island instead of taking a ferry TO Hong Kong Island!

Their Roadblock was 'Kick Down Doors'. Charla proven to us that she has strong legs - first climbing a Bamboo ladder at the Detour and then the kicking down doors.

Hong Kong Jockey Club was the Pit Stop for this leg. The Chas team - Oswald & Danny claimed the first place and won themselves a trip to Hong Kong during Chinese New Year. The Beauty Queens - Dustin & Kandice came in second, followed by the Cousins - Charla & Mirna. The Dating Couple - Eric & Danielle arrived in last place but it turned out to be another non-elimination leg. They were marked for elimination in the next leg - meaning they have to arrive in first place otherwise they will incur a 30-minute penalty.

Preview for the next Race:
Somebody use the Yield! Who is the victim? We will find out tomorrow night.

My choice of final 3:
The Cha-Cha, The Beauty Queens & The Cousins

America has something to talk about, indeed!

Wearing a shirt "Life is Beautiful", Sanjaya shed tears when Ryan told him, that's the end of the road for him. I only heard him saying, "I'm fine" as the audience noisily cheering for his exits? or could it be cheering for Lakisha who was safe of the elimination?

Sanjaya made history in American Idol. Everybody is talking about him including politicians and one of them is Hilary Clinton! He is also one of the most searched in Google!

Back to the result show. I was wondering why Blake was at the bottom 3? It should be Chris who tried to impress everybody by singing through his nose! Kalau di sini kita panggil 'sengau'. But again, it could be Chris saying of what had happened in Virginia Tech saved him. Nice tactics. And, did anyone noticed Lakisha's nervous expression? I think it would be a lesson for her not to show her ego. As we know, she never listened to her mentors' advice. Even Martina McBride questioned her choice of song "Jesus Take the Wheel". We will see what happen next. They will be doing an Inspirational Music - without Sanjaya Malakar of course :)

Oh yes. Fergie and Martina performed. I enjoyed them very much.

Tribute to Sanjaya Malakar.
Born in September 10, 1989. He is from Washington. He did his audition in Seattle, singing "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours". He performed in
Week 1 - Knocks Me Off My Feet - Stevie Wonder
Week 2 - Stepping Out with My Baby - Tony Bennet
Week 3 - Waiting on the World to Change - John Mayer
Week 4 - Ain't No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye, Tammie Terrell & Diana Ross
Week 5 - You Really Got me - The Kinks
Week 6 - Bathwater - No Doubt
Week 7 - Cheek to Cheek - Fred Astaire
Week 8 - Besame Mucho - Consuelo Velazquez
Week 9 - Something to Talk About - Bonnie Raitt

It was country music night and all contestants were coached by one and only, Martina McBride.

I was not impressed or it could be I was so sleepy to watch them performed. I'm not feeling well. I have a bad cough and terrible headache. Saya terlelap masa Melinda buat persembahan :)

Nevertheless, my choice for the night was Jordin, Phil & Blake. Jordin's 'Broken Wing' was superb. I am still hoping that she can cruise to the final 2.

Oh my gosh! Lakisha was off key and I could see her struggling at the higher note and it made her like yelling! So did Chris. Sanjaya too! I pick the three of them to be at the bottom three. And Lakisha probably going home - she was that bad!


Let's find out the result on Star World tomorrow night with Martina McBride performs.

The Amazing Race All Stars were in Malaysia! As Malaysian, I am so proud that they chose Malaysia as one of their destinations. I might be prouder if they came to Sabah :) and have the opportunity to meet or at least seem them doing all the Detour & Roadblock. How I wish! TAR season 4 came to Sabah. To be more specific, they came to Penampang! Yeah! I won't forget them. Reichen & Chip, you rawk!

And what a leg! Uchenna & Joyce were eliminated in my country! To both of you - I don't hate you guys, I just want to see other teams win the Race like you did in Season 7. Give other people a chance to win the million dollars.

A piece of advice to future Racers - don't play-play with airports! Go if you are really sure. Don't be too 'greedy' to go first when risk is waiting for you. I just don't understand why the married couple took such a huge risk. It was only 45 minutes difference of time arrival from the flight that other teams took (connecting through Paris). Well you guys, as Eric said, "you are braver".

I admired the cousins although they were a little bit unhelpful to Eric & Danielle. With two of them working on two computers, their strategy paid off. The managed to book a flight, which landed earlier in Kuala Lumpur. Later on, the cousins told in an interview that they met some locals in the same flight as theirs and managed to get information how to locate Batu Caves. But what made the cousins came behind from the BQ was because of their unsure doing which Detour, between Artistic Expression or Cookie Confection. And they like to abandon their unfinished task in the very last minutes just like the tuning of the piano task in the previous leg.

A Yield! Who said the cousins were bad? If they were, they could have yielded any team. But then, the BQ had the right decision to yield Eric & Danielle coz this team is very strong. I can see Eric pissed off.

The Roadblock of the Race was collecting "surat-khabar lama!" from the residents in Taman Sri Hartamas. I have plenty of those at home :) I am glad that some locals were willing to help the cousins. The cousins were surprised to learn that they have fans here in Malaysia. I am a fan too! Upon completing the roadblock, we heard Mirna giving advice to the locals "Stay out of drugs. Go to school. Be a professional" Mirna is a lawyer herself!

The Pit Stop was at Caracosa Seri Negara with the BQ arriving first and won themselves a pair of retro scooters. The cousins came in second. As for married couple, Uchenna & Joyce, they were asked to go directly to the Pit Stop where Phil announced they had been eliminated from the Race.

Four more teams left. One more team has to go. Who will be in the final 3? Let's find out on AXN tomorrow night!

bottom 3

Oopppss...only Haley went home pulak. I thought both of them had been eliminated hahaha. Diorang berdua ni saja selalu menduduki di bottom. After Haley, maybe akan tiba giliran Phil. Then mungkin Sanjaya. Lepas tu tidak tau lagi siapa yang akan menghuni kedudukan tercorot. Mungkin Chris, mungkin juga LaKisha. It's anyone game sekarang ni. Melinda pun boleh out juga bah hehehe. How I wish to see Blake & Jordin di final 2.

bottom 2

When Ryan called Phil & Haley to go to the centre stage. I was not surprised. They deserved to be at the bottom. Chris hanya penyeri beberapa minit sebelum disuruh beredar.

J-Lo

The result was put off for a few minutes to make way for J-Lo!. I was waiting patiently for her performance. Not bad but I was expecting more from her. Tidak puas pula sebab J-Lo tidak berapa menari as usual. Macam saya enjoy pula tinguk performance si Akon :) Oh well - never mind. I was still entertained anyway.

goodbye Haley!

After that Ryan announced Phil was safe. Tidak apalah bah tu. Akan sampai juga giliran dia pulang.

Next week diorang akan buat country songs. Martina McBride would coach them. I hope somebody will pick Shania Twain punya lagu. Apa-apapun, see it first on Star World!

To tell you the truth hanya persembahan Candy dan Ebi yang saya tunggu-tunggu. Tidak hairan sementara menunggu giliran diorang nyanyi saya terlelap (cam habit pulak :p) Maybe becoz terpaksa menunggu 13 persembahan!! American Idol semasa top 24 pun diorang split boys and girls supaya penonton tidak keboringan. Tapi kalo persembahan semuanya bagus-bagus mungkin lain cerita tapi ada persembahan yang membosankan - that's the reason saya terlelap.

Usually first performer akan dilupakan atau kita terlupa sebab show terlalu lama. Astro should buat re-cap in the end of the show just like the AI supaya otak kita refreshed by their performance.

Since banyak kali saya terlelap so, it's not fair for me bagi komen. Saya hanya akan komen persembahan yang saya sempat tonton.

Candy - I think I'm getting to like this girl. I just love her vocal. She already has the vocal tinggal lagi mo di-polish. Her voice mengingatkan saya kepada Linda Nanuwil (Oh how I miss her!). Ramai yang condemn Candy for forgetting her words but when I listen to it, actually she only missed one word i.e. "Inikah" So what? Dekna last time forgot one sentence. In AI pun ramai yang terlupa lirik. But who cares? But I do agree with Professor Khairil though, high note Candy terlalu nyaring. Itu adalah kebolehan semulajadi Candy sebenarnya, cuma dia perlu smoothen her high note. Apa yang menghairankan saya, semasa Candy buat latihan suara dia ok tapi bila buat persembahan di konsert, tiba-tiba ternyaring pula. Kalo tidak percaya, listen Candy at dBos. Apa-apapun hopefully Candy teruskan belajar selagi masih berada di Akademi.

Farha - Memang tidak bernasib baik sebab dapat lagu yang tiada umphh. Persembahan pun ala2 band boy gitu. Sebutan definitely tidak jelas. I think he concentrate more on his steps than his vocals.

Heliza - Matilah kaluuu! Low note dia hancusss. Melody pun lari banyak. Jgn memain 'Torn' pernah menjadi kegemaran saya time dulu-dulu so saya tahu lenggok sebenar lagu ini :)

Aizat - In the beginning of his show, saya memang mengantuk tapi bila tengok persembahan dia yang bertenaga, saya terus terbangun. Actually, persembahan dia ni diselamatkan oleh live music (okestra tentera darat ka tu? - I missed Aznil's interview with them). Lucky for Aizat sebab diiringi dengan live musicians. The rest of the students, arrangement muzik diorang tidak best. Bosan tahap cipan!

Noni - Kesian Noni. Berhempas pulas menyanyikan lagu 'Pastikan'. She was the worst. Nampak dlm Diari dia macam bersungguh-sungguh tapi akhirnya tiada perubahan dan peningkatan.

Ebi - Wow! Full of energy beb! I think the first ever happened in AF (correct me if I'm wrong) pelajar 'terjun' dari stage. It was a kejutan for me and I kinda like it. I think para penonton di dewan pun suka. Tidak hairan dia mendapat 43% undi.

Nasib baik Aznil tidak banyak membebel this time. It should be that way. I still miss Aznil masa AF2. Happening gila!

PILIHAN SELEPAS KONSERT KE-4:
Ebi & Aizat

SEPATUTNYA KELUAR:
Noni & Heliza (oppss Noni memang terkeluar pun)

PALING HAPPENING:
Penyingkiran 3 pelajar (bagus juga sbb terlalu ramailah beb! bikin buang duit utk mengundi saja)

3 hari lewat. Tapi orang bilang, better late than never. Ada hati ni mo posting pasal konsert ke-3 AF5 hehehe

(I'm listening to Vince - Percayalah Sayang, on HotFM - best jugak lagu ni)

Konsert bermula at 1.30pm. I hope and pray, no more concert on sundays. Mengantuk gila. Imagine, semasa Heliza perform, saya terlelap a few seconds towards the end of her song. Alih2 Ogy dah hentam budak ni - amik kau! dush dush dush. Adoi sian budak ni. Peserta pertama buat persembahan amat penting untuk memastikan kejayaan konsert tersebut. Remember Konsert ke-2? Candy did well. Dan peserta seterusnya semua mendapat pujian. Astro should take note on this. Siapa2 yg akan menyanyi 'killer song' bagi dia nyanyi dulu.

Ekspresi muka Farha amat menakutkan. Forgive me coz I didn't 'gali' the lyrics. So I didn't know the meaning of his song :P

Masa Aswad, Mila & Dafi nyanyi saya berada di dapur sbb saya kebuluran. Bila kita dengar diorang menyanyi dari jauh maka kedengaranlah suara2 sumbang diorang.

Dekna, Rizal and Shawal kurang bermaya. Boleh tengok reaksi muka diorang. Keletihan dan macam kurang tidur. Fatin, Noni and Aizat boleh tahan. Boleh up lagi!

Candy and Ebi dapat killer songs so tidak hairan performance dioranglah yang dinanti2kan. They nailed their songs.

Who cares about penghayatan? We have seen many singers performed. Camana nak tau diorang tu nyanyi dgn penuh penghayatan? To me, what's important is their persembahan - vocally and presentation. Nyanyi best, baju best, tarian best dah cukup. Buat apa mo gali?

Aznil - another boring props. Adoi Aznil, pasal kaulah aku mengantuk2. You should stick interviewing the students. No more puisi or sajak please!

PILIHAN SELEPAS KONSERT KE-3:
Candy & Ebi
SEPATUTNYA KELUAR:
Dafi
PALING POYO:
Tiada penyingkiran
