1 diva

i finally did my first overseas job for this year!
it was in KL, Malaysia!
i know its not that far but i get excited with even the littlest thing.
and it was so much fun!

i got a last minute call to see if i was free to do a weekend shoot
for Disney's High School Musical 3 promo for the channel.
it was to style the 4 main Malaysian voice artistes
who did the dubbing in bahasa.
so i thought my country needs me,
Malaysia needs me, Disney needs me!
YES! I WILL DO IT!
i got all ready and flew up in less than 48 hours,
with a more than 30kg luggage!
one can never travel too prepared.

Dafi, Milla, Nana and Marsha.
never heard of them?
Mm... neither did i.
well... they are the young and one of the biggest recording artistes
from the Malaysian singing reality show Academy Fantasia!
and they were just wonderful to work with.

meet Dafi. shy yet cheeky.
even though he was the only guy in the group,
he was totally comfortable and at home with the girls.
i sensed a close family connection among them,
and honestly that is really rare in this industry.
they were sharing stories, joking and poking fun at each other.
i almost had a tear in my eye.
why can't we always be like that?!
Nana was definitely the mother hen of the group,
glowing was a newly wed bride.
and Marsha, the hyper Bunnie.
this girl needs no sugar to energize her.
and she does it all with no sleep!
then there's Milla. so small and tiny that you'd want to
just pick her up and keep her safe in your pocket!

oh... have you heard them?
these guys CAN sing!
and i thought i could sing.
well, not anymore.

i also met Lyana Dee.
the most amazing makeup artist to Milla.
she's SUPER talented and helpful!
and has gorgeous luscious hair....
she should do shampoo ads.

to cut the long story short,
i got to work with some of the finest from Malaysia and
they got to work with one of the finest from Singapore, me.

that's what work should be.
great company.
professional attitude.
fun environment.
and 1 diva.
me... but we'll not go there.
