I'll Remember MAMA Part 2

Here's the continuation of what made me half-glad and half regretful that I spent four hours in front of the telly to catch the delayed telecast of MAMA 2011.




5. Fann Wong's fashion question-mark - What on earth was she wearing??? Apologies to the fans of "Singapore's National Treasure" but she looked as if she was determined NOT to aim for conventional glamour in that strange garb. But hey, what do I know about fashion and why should I care about her wardrobe choices???





6. Ulala's spirited performance

Each time I start feeling sorry for myself, I must remember Im Yoon-taek's never-say-die spirit. Despite suffering from stage four cancer, he was able to perform with the other three members of Ulala Session. His baggy clothes couldn't hide his thinness but what really stood out was their energy and heart. These winners of Season 3 of "Superstar K" looked like the real deal ,IMHO, compared to the well-oiled machinery of the more well-established boy bands.





7. I'd sooner forget the painfully awkward sight of stiff kids in yellow T-shirts shepherded onto stage to stand in line in the background and instructed to hold yellow balloons and wave their hands as Apl.de.Ap. of the Black-eyed Peas sings "We Can Be Anything". Spare me the cliche, please. It's too corny to be even cute.




8. Wowed by will-i-am's performance of "The Hardest Ever" but was that really him or a dancer with the image of will.i.am's head on the TV screen as the head? Haven't seen any 'live' concerts for years and this inventive and theatrical number shows me what I've been missing.

To Be Continued....
