Simon’s Obligatory Post on Malaysian Idol 2

Published by simon on September 20, 2005

Looks like I have to do an obligatory post on Malaysian Idol 2. I haven’t really watch it at all, except for a few episodes here and there. The timing of the show doesn’t fit my schedule really, me having to meet with my parole officer and all.

But I did watch latest results episode where Farah was voted out paving the way for Daniel and Nita to enter the last spectacular concert at the Arena of the Stars.

Well, between the two, Nita’s definitely the better singer, but I’ve seen some really poor performances from her. Daniel’s the smiley cute guy that gets all the girls’ votes. He looks just like that dude that sells pirated VCD at the foodcourt near my house. Everytime Daniel’s opens his mouth I’d always expect some Hokkien expletive like ‘KNN’ to come out… OK, enough already…

Anyway, I kinda liked Faizull (?) the one dimensional rocker dude, nice guy, but never really champion material. But anyway, Malaysian Idol hasn’t really caught on like American Idol (just ask anjali*) or gasp, Akademi Fantasia (just ask zyrin).

Anyway I can think of 5 good ways to spruce up the viewership and ratings of Malaysian Idol next season:

  • Get Paul Moss to wear tight, black baby-T-shirts and speak in a fake British accent (his current Aussie accent is been too Malaysianized). That’ll draw in the Simon Cowell fans.

  • Get a bigger auditorium, hence more audience. The current one (Sri Pentas) looks like my secondary school hall.

  • Want to encourage the singers to perform better? If they don’t sing well, give the audience rotten tomatoes and vegetables to hurl at the performers. Or the judges.

  • Do a Metallica or Sepultura themed night. Then I’LL watch it!

  • Get rid of that shallow, arrogant, pretentious judge Roslan. He makes Randy Jackson sound like Einstein.

  2. cyber-red Said,

    The Sri Pentas 2 is in some run-down Shah Alam shopping mall.. so sad =/

    And Paul Moss accent is of New Zealand.. baa baa =P

  3. Fashionasia Said,

    This year i didn’t bother to watch the show. Sorry babe but ….takde ummphhh

  4. mama22beas Said,

    Never interested but agree with you, get a Sepultura themed night, and I’ll watch!

  5. simon Said,

    yuin - so will you be in the front row with a “I LOVE DANIEL” banner?

    cyred-red - no wonder la. looks so run-down. Oh yeah Paul is from NZ. I wonder if he and Aishah are still friends…

    fashionasia - yep, most ppl i know also not in to it.

    mama22beas - i’d love to see those lenglui singers try to growl and headbang like sepultura. is anyone from 8tv reading this?

  6. Sexymama Said,

    Ask them to sing Michael Jackson’s clicking and clucking songs, and whoever can do it wins.

  7. Inevitable Said,

    me for once would like to hear ‘fairer’ comments from the judge

  8. Inevitable Said,

    and sorry to say but Daniel sucks

  9. anjali* Said,

    MI2 not v happening lah. In fact, I think AF3 was so much better. Mawi rocks! But M.Nasir rocks ROCKS!!! Heh.

    Hey, Bo’s single is out! 2 singles -”Inside Your Heaven” and “Vehicle”. I want!

    And Ms Underwear’s album is also out too. But who cares! Haa.

  10. S-Kay Said,

    Eee…I dun like Daniel lah. I mean he can sing lah SOME songs very well but I think he stayed on because he’s got all his girly fans voting for him. I prefer Farah over Nita though. Nita got this face that would make people dislike her

  11. yuin Said,

    if i were to be in the front row, i would probably have a ‘I LOVE MYSELF’ banner instead. sorry daniel.

  12. simon Said,

    sexymama - ish, then the contestants will be groping themselves on stage.

    inevitable - yeah… but he’s in the finals…

    anjali - Ms. underwear… bwahahaha….

    s-kay - you’re rite about nita… she looks a bit bitchy…

    yuin - ish, better don’t do that la… looks very the funny…

  13. Din Said,

    since i can enter for free, can anyone tell me whether I should just enter the arena of stars this 23rd sept or should i just go sleep?

  14. simon Said,

    no need la. if i were you i’d sleep of play DOTA

  15. Wingz Said,

    i did my best and i have no regrets, i have no professional training.

  16. simon Said,

    So YOU are that guy who said that!!!

  17. zyrin Said,

    I VOTE FOR THE METALLICA / SEPULTURA SHOW.

    -ahem-

    Hey, how about putting the Chief Kodok (aka Mr. Afdlin Shauki) up as a MI judge? I’d definitely tune in to MI, then… if only to watch Afdlin, hehehehehehe…

  18. simon Said,

    ish, ape pulak dengan afdlin ni? Budak itu betul2 syok sendiri la…

  19. Sexymama Said,

    If they grope themselves on stage, then you’d have more to write about, don’t you? :) :) :)

  20. zyrin Said,

    hehehehe… true.

    but roslan aziz has never made me laugh until my sides hurt… but there’s always hope, hmm…

  21. Lilbrat Said,

    Maybe i’ll be the one holding up the Banner “I LOVE DANIEL”if u dun mindXD
