Epic American Comedy ~The Nanny~

147 times and still counting...
Thats the amount of time i've glued my eyes on the screen watching The Nanny!

Yes, no other sitcom nowadays can ever compare to this brilliantly sketched piece of comedy art. PERIOD.

Created and executively produced by Fran Drescher (who is also the main character) and her then-husband Peter Marc Jacobson, The Nanny took much of its inspiration from Drescher's personal life, involving names and characteristics based on near relatives and friends. The show earned a Rose d'Or and one Emmy Award, out of a total of thirteen nominations, and Drescher was twice nominated for a Golden Globe as well as for an Emmy. Since the early 2000s the sitcom has also spawned several foreign adaptations, loosely inspired by the original scripts.




But in my opinion, no comedy sitcom will ever be as ORIGINAL as The Nanny was.
Though it's no longer aired on TV, i get my dose of nasal voiced nanny on the ever convenient, Youtube! ;)
Also a favourite of Malaysian Idol winner, Jaclyn Victor, among millions others out there, The Nanny is a 'Must-have' DVD collection!
It still moves me to tears watching the last episode of this gut tickling series. Why must all good things come to an end?? :(

My favourite character in the show would have to be the mother...Sylvia Fine!!! heheh


The Nanny...two word: EPIC WIN!

Bravo to the one and only actual American comedy....with quality.

Jaclyn Victor was HARD ROCKING!!

The little lady with the power vocal took the stage at Hard Rock, KL and ROOOCKKED IT in conjuction of the PINKTOBER campaign for breast cancer awareness on the 31st of October 2010.

The show began shortly past 11pm and the crowd was all ready for action. Jac came up to me before the show and told me that she was NERVOUSE! What??....Miss Jaclyn Victor nervouse??? strange but true.
Her last showcase was about 2 years ago held at Planet Hollywood.

She opened up her show with 2 numbers off Katy Perry. 'California Girls' and 'Hot and Cold'.
Which to My cousin's delight who was dressed up as Katy Perry! Blue wig and pink dress.

After the 2 songs, I had the privilege of taking off her boots! Yes, Jac performed the whole night through barefoot. hahaha
She explains that the floor was too slippery and gravity can be unfriendly to her at times. (Remember the infamous RTM stage fall?)
And to my treat > I was mentioned in another blog as "a HANDSOME GUY from the audience to take off her boots" !!!
AWWWWW...im flattered <3

Jac continued the show with mostly covers of other popular songs such as Kelly Rowland's 'When Love Takes Over' ( In which i personally suggested her to sing and a job well done indeed!), Glee's 'Dont Stop Believing', Shakira's 'Waka Waka', Lady gaga's 'Poker Face' and 'Just dance', Shontelle's 'Impossible', Guns and Roses' 'Sweet Child Of Mine' and many more.
As for her own songs, jac sang a medly of Senandung Beradu, Gemilang, Satu Harapan, Cepat-cepat and Berjalan Di Bawah Pohon Asmara.

The show lasted a full hour and an hour..is not enough!
No one can get enough of her high pitch pro-ness.

It has been proven before that Jaclyn Victor has talent to be versatile in singing different types of genre and all those present that day held witness that she still carries that criteria in becoming one of Malaysia's singing treasure.

Congrats to Jaclyn Victor on the success of the show and here's to many more!
CHEERS~ XOXO

~Kelly Clarkson live in Malaysia concert review~

She came, she sang, she conquered!
The 'original' American Idol, Kelly Clarkson, paid a visit to her Malaysian fans on the 25th of April 2010..on her Birthday!
And i was lucky enough to be able to catch her live at Stadium Bukit Jalil, KL.

The show started roughly after 7pm with Malaysian Idol, Jaclyn victor and One In A Million winner, Suki as opening acts.
Jaclyn Victor wowed the crowd with her vocal power by performing her first track on her 3rd album, Koleksi Gemilang (a medly combination of 25 malay songs).
Then, Suki hit the stage by perfroming some malay song ( which i dont know the tittle of) ;p

Finally, time has come...Kelly Clarkson came on stage roughly after 8.30pm with her opening song, All I Ever Wanted!
Dressed in her same outfit that she wore in her Australian concert the day before, Kelly decided to go barefoot! And she did this throughout the show.

Her Malaysian fans obviously adored her as they went wild throughout her present on stage and they even sang along beautifully to her songs. 'We' even tried singing happy birthday to her but was interrupted when she started singing another song. Kelly acknowledge our attempt after the song though ;p

Kelly is a fantastic vocalist and performer.
She's real, energetic, fun and you can see that she's very comfortable on stage among her fans and thats what makes me adore her even more!

i must admit that i wasn't really a big Kelly Clarkson fan before, but now after watching her live, im in love with this lady.

The show ended at 10pm and it felt like she just started minutes ago.

If Kelly Clarkson is making her way to a city near you, i'd strongly recommend you to go get your tickets!
















ps: sorry i have no photos of her on stage for i was completely too excited to take pictures when she's performing..lol

officially LEGAL!

Thats right....im talking about my age here!

wohoooo...age 21.

now i can finally go clubbing without the worries :D

Not much has happened in between new years eve till today...im still heartbroken, fat and desperate...pethetic.

But if its one thing im thankful for in this world, its gotta be my FRIENDS

On the strike of 12 am, 11 January 2010, i recieved a phone call from one of my close/bestfriend from high school..Ganesh. This really bought a smile to my face...remembering on how much trouble we put ourselves in back in the days...hahaha

Then, 'A' called me soon after....i was confused in emotions..happy but upset. hmmmm

yes, i did expected the call but i never imagined that 'A' didn't say 'i love you' at the end of the call. never..

I slept it off soon but early in the morning i got a surprise phone call from Aunty Maggie wishing me a happy bitrhday! Aunty Maggie is Jaclyn Victor's mom and i felt so touched and happy till i felt cheerfull throughout the day. THANK YOU AUNTY MAGGIE :)))

The sms-es and phone calls continued the whole day and thanked God that i was blessed with friends who cared. So, THANK YOU TO ALL MY FRIENDS!!!

A very sweet friend of mine, Bie, even wrote a blog about our friendship to wish me a happy birthday too!

WOW...i was (and still am) really touched by this.

Bie (or 'baby, is what i call him) is one of my bestfriends from ASWARA bout 3 years back.

And all i can say about this friend of mine is that he's one in a million who actually appreciates friends!..and he SHOWS it.

A very valuable lesson to me as well.

FUCK LOVE and all that bullshit....friends and family is all that we need in this life and remember that, people!

anyway, im 21 now and im gonna try to love life more.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ATIF!!!

Jaclyn Victor's Fan Gathering

12/12/09-Sat

2-6pm

Restaurant Artista, Tropicana mall.

Jaclyn Victor managed to organize a simple yet fun high-tea gathering that day and she had a surprised for me as well!!!

a few weeks back, we met at a fren's b'day bash and we sang a duet of halo together..this time it happened again.

I was just enjoying my meal when Jac called out for me and Sunni (birthday boy) to come up stage and sing an acapella version of halo together. HAHAHHA...let me remind u that it was not planned!

Sunni over exegerate the song and that leads me and Jac to 'lostville'..lol..

blurrr

Then we sang gemilang together.

It was not much of an activity but the whole point of the gathering is to..well,...gather! kan kan kan..haha

but I got more than anyone else did though ;p

There were roughly about 50 fans there and it was just nice :)

She even had a surprise birthday cake to Sunni..so sweet.

PS: Jac and Zalekha organized the event a day before, so kudos to the girls!

Barry's 'gemilang' party!

My Karaoke buddy Barry or 'barrel barry' (a name to irritate him) turned 29 with a fantastic 'room party'!

Held at Crown Regency in KL, Barry kicked off the party at around 9pm with a liquor extravaganza! It was a night meant to get trashed....lol

We (my cousin, brother and i) arrived at roughly around 9:30pm from WIP Bangsar and the first thing i saw was people getting tipsy.

The setting was just brilliant. Disco balls, colourfull disco lights, flashing 'paparazzi lights' and loud music...all in a hotel room. what more can u ask?

By 11pm the room was packed with Barry's drunk friends getting it down on the 'dancefloor' while DJ Karan played his well list of remixes. Then mr Nadjmi just had to spill water on his lappy and from there, things got crappy..hahahhaha but we were still having fun anyways.

Then, the big surprise came knocking on the door roughly at around 1pm!

guess who???

our malaysian idol....JACLYN VICTOR!!!!

yaeeeehhhhh

hahahaha....we chatted a bit and she sang her powerful rendition of 'happy birthday' and me and her got to sing 'Halo' together (which we didnt finish it up cuz we sang the wrong note).

Also present was our old friend Riz who made it big in AF [akademi fantasia].

check out the pictures...it was a whole lotta fun!

PS: i dont drink and yes this was in a hotel room...lol
