JUARA LAGU 23 STAGE

Me screaming @ Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil

It’s a night full of stars and songs. What more that I want. It just like going to the centre where stars just go there to have fun and listen to cool music. A very spectacular night indeed. All the famous singers in their most extravagant (or ridiculous) wear walking and sitting next to each other.

I still remember back a night in 1988 and I am still a little child (read: little child). Juara Lagu was so big and everybody can’t stop buzzing about it. The winning price is rm10K (very,very big at that point of time) and Francesca Peters won. It is still big now, but not as big as before. Probably due to like dozens of singing competitions now!

I am having a very musical night at Juara Lagu or Champion of Songs Awards. If you into Malay songs and singers, you must be having a dream to attend this event. But never mind, at least you don’t have to worry about what to wear. It took me like 2 to 3 days to think what I should wear. The result is not bad. I can see people stare, camera flashing and a few praise my look.

Ok.. .about the camera flashing thing, maybe I am just hallucinating! But I get a few unexpected fans whose came and snap me. I am not a star. I am only a guy with cheap fedora and Palestine inspired scarf!

Congratulations to Meet Uncle Hussein. I thought it is Faizal Tahir but it is ok too for MUH home with the trophy!

I am enjoying the music but at the same time, I am enjoying what they wear. They are performers, so they used to bloggers writing about what they wear!

I AM A DESIGNER MUSE LOOK

This is what happened after years of years of mingling with designers. Ziana Zain is a true fashion star. From head –the bling-bling head band, to toe, killer heels which accidently slipped from her small feet, it just ultimate fabulous. The dress look a bit likes last season Chanel Couture, but (thanks to info from Ziana folk) it is from Malaysian designer, Rizman Ruzaimi.

I AM A STYLISH ROCK STAR

Faizal Tahir never failed to impress me. He did two performances and two sets of outfit and both just hip, chic and rock. Faizal, you are a rock star. A newer, fresher Malaysian version of rock star. I wish I am the stylist on the stage!

I AM A PHANTOM LOOK

They won and just like me, the lead also wearing fedora (I don’t know how much, but mine is cheap!). Classic look but not too boring. Forget about the mask and you’ll get proper super hot dude in a suit!

I AM OPRAH WINFREY WANNABE LOOK

I am ok with Ayu. She looks great, but don’t you think the hair and the makeup add 5 years to her age? She is sweet and young (along with RM1 million) I am hoping her in vibrant colour. But not bad Ayu, not bad. She’ll be at Ziana Zain level if she continues to live, learn and experiment.

I AM A COLLEGE INDIE BAND LOOK

They look great. Look like a bunch of rich college kids in designer wear. Sofaz knows how to wear it and I hope its last.

I AM 11 YEARS OLD LOOK

He is famous from losing kilos but he is also losing his age with messy hair, no war button badge and t-shirt with that tie printed motive. Aizat looks like Japanese primary school kids playing music in a Love world, hate war school campaign or something! But in a very mysterious way, you look cool!

I AM A MISS UNIVERSE (NATIONAL COSTUME CATEGORY) CONTESTANT LOOK

I know it is an Arabian Eastern inspired song but who on earth ask this young, innocent sweet boy put on something that make him look like a drunk Pharaoh and with a bunch of gothic belly dancers? Aiman, you are talented, but don’t let anyone do like this to you. But, this is creative, who am I to say more? He is a good singer, it is just that the thick make-up makes him look like Pharaoh clown, Yuyu or depressed beauty pageant contestant.

I AM A BRIDE LOOK

FOR HEAVEN SAKE HELIZA, this is not a bridal magazine photo shoot. Learn to innovate please!

I AM MADONNA VS GEISHA LOOK

Remember Madonna Jean Paul Gaultier kinky Geisha dress in Nothing Really Matter video? This is a bit like it, only this is a demure version, colourful version. She is nothing like kinky geisha, instead she an innocent young girl in the industry. Did you ever heard about her having an affair with married man, no right? So Farawahida is an innocent girl!

I AM GWEN STEFANI LOOK

She put on her shoes and sang. Frankly, I can’t get her songs out of my head. Elyana is one of the best artists who know what she wants to wear. She has style and do not afraid to express her sense of style, just like Gwen. Icon in the making.

I AM WEARINGTHIS SINCE 1984

M. Nasir is one of the guest singer and as usual, he is in something so similar back arm… I can’t remember when!

I AM IN AN UGLY MULLET LOOK

Jamal Abdillah, this is 2009, don’t stuck in 1980’s. It’s that wig?

WE ARE CUTE AND WE KNOW IT LOOK

They just cute!
