Wedding Day



One of the most famous couples in the world debuted their smouldering duet 'Wedding Day' on Seal's latest album 'System', at the 2007 Victoria's Secret Show.

The duet's a gem.

Not the all-hyped-up shake ya booty 'biggest-duet-there-ever-was' or a 'we're singing about love but we're really talking dirty here' or 'we really really are mushing to hell about the big L-O-V-E' type of ditty.


But a cool, new-agey , laid-back sophistication that wafts along a tremendously well-written, well-arranged song that reflects a true sense of their chemistry, relief and happiness together.

No romping or flirting. Only a gentle sense of caressment and eye-to-eye.


As beautiful as the Angel's it serenaded that night.

Q

> Never too late to talk about a great song.

The V-V-V-ery-Stylish Di-V-V-V-as

Vanessa Willams, Victoria Beckham and Vera Wang.








The 3 di-V-as of style on Ugly Betty.


Glamourous.

That's what you get when you put an iconic-beauty queen-turned-singer-cum-actress, an iconic socialite-cum-singer-cum-fashionista and an iconic wedding gown designer together on the set of an award winning show like UB.

The Powder-ful Power Puff Girls :)

> Indeed, re-runs are not all bad. ^^

No more Kandi



Sticky and Sweet. NO more.


Singapore's Kandi Bar by Hed Kandi closed as suddenly as MOS.

The stylish little camp-hang out with the infamous glass flooring which had caused many an unsuspecting high-heel wearer high on booze to topple and fall off an invisible step.

Scary. ^^

It's a deadlier fall than anything off a Vivienne Westwood.

It will be missed.
(Both the club and the topples. :p)

PS: The local clubbing scene is getting yucky.

Hit the Jackpot!


Jackpot! The Best Bette (know as The Best Bette in Europe) is a compilation album of recordings by American singer Bette Midler.

The album release was originally set to coincide with Midler's current Las Vegas show, Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On which debuted on February 20, 2008 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace
, but was postponed to an international September release.


After some thirty-five years in showbusiness and having recorded some twenty albums this is the second single-disc compilation of Midler's best-known recordings, following 1993/1996's Experience the Divine.

Jackpot! The Best Bette includes three titles from Midler's more recent albums for Columbia, "This Ole House", "Tenderly" and "Cool Yule", and also sees the debut of one previously unreleased track, "Something Your Heart's Been Telling Me", co-written by Midler, Robert Kraft and Barry Reynolds and originally cut as a demo by the singer herself in 1984 but first released by Roberta Flack who recorded the song for her 1991 album Set the Night to Music.~ Wiki-ed.


A drama queen like non other.


A must get.

Thank You for the Parday


Ministry of Sound, the mega club which poised itself as the big British club-brand that'll take the scene by storm and steal the thunder of Zouk, is now having its DJs spinnning its swan song.

Today, the management has officially announced to the media that it's closing its hallowed doors once and for all, marking an end to an era of wild pardaying for thousands who've thronged it's massive dance floors during the weekends during the last couple of years.

From the off-kiltch 'jungle beat' Pure, the retro-dazzle of Studio 54, the R&B-fied Smooove and the trance-haven MOS main stage.

Never before was there a congregation of so many wannabes and posers.

Never before was clubbing boringly sanitized by people who think they know how to club are really there just to pretend they are beautiful and hip.

(as get a** drunk and hanging off some one's shoulders; totally un-glam)

LMAO.

Anyway, the official statement released:

"The operation of the Ministry of Sound outlet located in The Cannery at Clarke Quay has ceased with effect from today, Monday, 6 October 2008. In addition, the License Agreement with UK-based Brand owner... Ministry of Sound International Limited has also been terminated."

"LifeBrandz Limited has future plans to redevelop the premises into an entertainment centre that will be different in concept from the Ministry of Sound outlet.

Future plans for the premises will be announced over the next few weeks."


Cheers to the Phuture ahead.


Woops!!!! hee hee^^

F-1 and F*** This.



This year's show was totally over shadowed by the much hyped about F1.

And you thought its only the marketing people doing a lack lustre job.

Actually, there's more to it.

IT STINKS.

BIG TIME.


Unlike previous years with the super cars and awe-inspiring concepts spread over 2 massive levels of Motordom Heaven, this year's rubbish of a show only had Subaru taking centre stage with their various versions of the iconic Impreza and its much awaited (but, now we know, hardly worth waiting for) notchbacked version , Honda's all-new and all-important City , Nissan's new Murano SUV and Teana executive saloon and of course the much-raved-about Rinspeed fully- submersible Lotus.

8 bucks worth of yawn-inducing crappola.

2010 had better be a hit.

This year's a Miss.
