to say. TT covered the high notes, Kris the mid-range and Ruth was singing the lower key. They all sounded well together but it was more like an acapella group rather than 3 powerful Divas. The audience was robbed of their diverse and superb voices. I would have preferred them comparing or dog-fighting their diverse vocal talents. Plus the musical ensemble “Persona Malaysia” led by the talented Bapak Erwin Guttawa, although was gila babi best, but too overpowering at times drowning the Di
vas voices.When the 3 Divas performed, you also expected the stadium to be a full house but sadly no. It was not crowded at all that we were able to upgrade our tickets and the organizer actually had to slash the ticket pricing to more than 50% to lure the crowd which sadly again didn’t work. This is one grand concert that I’m pretty sure did not reap any if not little profit.
Don’t get me started on our own home grown talents who performed that night too. For Nurul, it was obvious that it was likely a favour done by an old friend of her ex-hubby. She did come across as a divorcee trying hard to revive her dying career. It didn’t help that she looks a tad like Naomi Campbell before the community service of course . As for Dayang, the girl who actually lost out to a 16 year old girl, was given a jolt of confidence by the Divas or was this really good marketing from her record label. And err… whatchamacallit….Noryn Aziz??? Who ??? Liza Aziz I know lah, infact Liza would give the Divas a run for their money!! Don’t get me wrong, they are talented but I feel that they should not have lowered their status by performing with the Divas coz in comparison, it made them look amateurish!!! But to think of it, as they say in show business, any publicity is good publicity
There was a tribute segment where the Divas sang songs by Sheila Majid and Siti Nurhaliza. Ironic when Kris sang Lagenda as a tribute to Sheila who sang the song as a tribute to P. Ramlee. So, who are they toasting the song to again?? They actually focused Siti on the BIG screen. Sitting next to her was her new groom…. The teenage basher himself. Datuk K ickboxing! Was he concentrating on the concert or was he trying to think of an answer for the judge. Its ironic that to solve his sons drug problem, one should beat up the neighbour’s kid. Wasn’t it his kids pictured plastered on the internet with a Vodka Martini in his hands…..the boy has upgraded lah!
In all, it was a fantastic night and btw, my dearest said that I look like Titi Dj….hehe….ye ke??? Kembang siooot Minus the nose of course…
Good news! Pineapple Event Management will bring in Beyonce i.e Bouncy next….. this time buy your tickets at the last minute!!
