Silly names...

"Diari Tengah Hari Khamis ini dimulakan dengan sambungan dari isu menamakan kamera semalam. Hamba rasa seperti membazir masa Astro tunjuk benda-benda remeh ini. Tetapi untuk membetulkan keadaan, hamba rasa bukannya pelajar-pelajar harus memberi nama tetapi MENEKA nama yang telah dipilih oleh Astro dan dilekat pada kamera (pendapat sahaja). Sebab itu susah sangat hendak dapat yang betul.Akhirnya mereka menyebut setiap satu abjad sehingga terkena yang betul. Kamera betina di bawah diberi nama Tipah-tipah. Tipah-tipah??? Susah-susah untuk nama sebodoh itu?? Si Reza dapat meneka nama si jantan iaitu Tuan Besar. Tidak seteruk Tipah-tipah, tetapi bukankah sukar untuk menyebutnya. Langsung tidak catchy!!" - From fantasiaakademi.blogspot.com

And what a waste of air-time has that been indeed. Astro could've used it to show more interesting activities in the Akademi really. I guess they are indeed running of ideas on how to keep the Diari exciting. And the silly thing about this camera naming is that they eventually picked a crap name for it! How creative.... NOT! Also if you've clicked on the fantasiaakademi blog, you'd read about Ekin being stressed out a bit about her performance this week. She's having a lil difficulty carrying the song. She must be lacking the confidence now so I suggest the Akademi to have Farah AF2 to give Ekin a visit to give some motivation. It'll do good for Ekin and also for me. Why me? Because I miss Farah so atleast kalau shes on the Diari terubatlah rinduku! Hahahaha....

"there was this one Diary where Siti Hajar asked Marsha the mood of her assigned song this week and she said "GATAL"then she said something else so quickly I bet none of you understood what she meant! hahah!well, me having the upperhand in this case will tell you here what she said: "IH saya selalu dapat lagu GETE oh, malas sia" which basically means that she's pissed off because she gets bitchy songs every time. GETE is Sabahan Malay for bitchy" - From ShellOnAF Blog

I think this is done on purpose, someone in the Akademi has been having lil pleasures of their on everytime Marsha makes lurrrrvvee to the camera! Hehehe.... But seriously, I dont think theres no song that Marsha cant make it sound sexy right? I'd personally like to hear Marsha sing the typical happy birthday song, but in the way that Marilyn Monroe sang it to JFK. I bet my last dollar that she could pull if off easily! As I said in my comments on ShellOnAF, I think Astro is slowly moulding her to have the sexy sassy seducing diva aura which ofcourse would easily sell her future recordings like hot cakes. Its not only her, I can see in the song choices for this week, it seems the Akademi is already trying to catogerize each students to their particular on forte. Just simply look at Aidil, Kefli and Mawi. They've been given songs that will not be a tough challenge to them because its vocally within reach so that they'll be safe (?). Whatever happen to the task of digging-out the versatility of each students by giving them different genres of songs which could challenge their vocals technically? I mean if they do this, I'm sure the students will be more motivated to learn more vocals techniques inorder to carry different genres of songs.

But somehow I suspect theres some legality matters that comes into this. Maybe Maestro/Astro/Akademi couldnt get rights to certain songs that they would like to assign to the students by the major recording companies. Or maybe they can but it could be costly in royalty. Just remember, every song has its own publisher, writer and composer, so theres money to be paid out to these guys especially when Maestro/Astro/Akademi are gonna produce/compile/market those songs on cd/dvd/vcd/tape. Its a multi-million dollar bueiness so the complications are simply mind boggling. I'm sure certain songs will be cheap but those that went million over sales worldwide wont be easily available and will definately break the bank to have. Ok thats my assumptions anyway, could be wrong but I sure would like if someone in the know could clarify me in this matter.

Oh can I just say one thing? Is this blog scary? Intimidating? I mean I know I'm having so much hits but none are quite keen on leaving any comments. Not that I'm like really desperate or forcing anyone to do so but I just wanna say kalau nak tinggalkan komen, bahasa melayu or rojak melayu english pun ok. I am Malay afterall so please feel free to share pendapat anda k? Till then, cyaaas!
