Liv Teh Dweam. ( First Part of a Trigonometry.)

Even though i am aware of the fact that this vile merchandise is the exact same shit repackaged in a fancy box, I still find myself compelled to purchase. This is not because i am susceptible to Mediacorp's nefarious peddling, rather i thrive on its painful existence, seeing that it has to endure the scrutiny of me and other fellow asshole self-righteous bastards.

Like every reality/variety show produced in Singapore, Live the Dream's cash prize is so palsy and unattractive, and not truly able to aid an aspiring musician in his future endeavors. It's so miserable, It's probably warrant enough only for starving musicians to get themselves a job before this "dream" dissipates. No wonder the necessity to rally people to nominate/sabo friends into this cheap scam. How Shrewd, Mediacorp.

Granted, the contestants this time round are far much more talented that those from previous incarnations. However, their brilliance is marred by the recurring resident judges Dick and Ken. I know, Singapore's music industry is small enough... Still, Is it really imperative to use the same judges? Why don't we just call the show Singapore 25 and above Idol? Seeing as it's already so not the same show.

Also, If you don't intend to make a contract with any of the contestants, Why do you still nitpick on anything else rather than their vocal capabilities? Yes, I'm looking at you Ken. It's not supposed to be about package anymore isn't it? It's supposedly just based on talent. Stop looking at their clothes and just listen to how they sound! Yes Dick, we know you're wearing Marc Jacobs... sheesh

Also, who can resist taking a straight jab at some of these memorable one liners?

"You get to decide who goes on, and who stays in the competition." ~ Utt :/

"You are an experienced musician, that's the problem. You look too comfortable." ~ Ken Lim
(Excuse me, but that's like saying: Polar bear, you live too much in the Arctic. You look too cool, you should live in the Sahara desert.)

"I HAVE A THING FOR DRUMMERS" ~ Ann Hussein *swoons*
"I must say, you have got the look down pat. Best dressed of the night." ~ Dick Lee to Victor Tang
(Hello? Am i experiencing Deja Vu? If you don't get it, here's what they were wearing...)




...
And now for some purdy pixxiez of the night!!!


Teh Hips don't Lie.


If I could ever one day meet this fan, I would ask her about her secret to grow dimples as lovely as hers.


Why. The. Need. For. Arm. Peed.


People I like, such as these guys.
