Is Ma Babe A Closet (Serious) Flirt?

I don't know why I sometimes have nagging pangs of suspicions about Antonio. It's not that I'm basically a very suspicious person. But for some odd reason sometimes, I feel my antennae just go up and I start looking things up.

They can be in blogs or facebooks.

And that was just it.

See, I don't usually check out Antonio's facebook. It was just that one day when I decided to just take a peek -- a very long peek -- into his facebook.

And then I found 2 things -- a photo of a "strange" unknown woman in a wet sexy dress and flirtatous exchanges between Antonio and this woman.

I did the usual. My deathly curiosity more than piqued. Inflamed. I clicked on the photo and found out who she was.

Did she tag the photo to Antonio? Or did Antonio take the photo? The second possibility seems, well, impossible.

The first was more plausible because that's how people get photos in their facebooks. If that were so, then why would this woman (not known to me) tag a sexy photo of hers to Antonio?

You don't send a sexy photo of yourself to a man you hardly know unless he asked you to and you must kinda like each other to bother.

So, what was going on?

And the sexy flirtatious exchanges? you must have something going there for that to happen.

So, tell me?

Are all men like Antonio when confronted?

I asked him who she was. He couldn't lie there because the details are in her facebook. I wanted to know how and where they met.

Then I asked what the fuck was that all about.

Stupid inane "explanations". He was so pathetic I wanted to kick him in his face.

Not serious conversation between them in facebook, he stuttered. No baby, but that was some serious flirtation there.

Am I stupid (like you) or what?

He swore there was nothing going on. Never was and never will be.

Does he think I am as stupid as he is? What a dickhead.

That kind of going on shows that you're "close" enough to be flirting. And that's just on facebook. Smses? Blackberrying?

I can't say that things are good between us. I don't trust him at all. I've come to the conclusion that he is a bastard of the first degree.

Yeah, he loves me. But he is a pathological flirt. Should have realized it when we first met.
Them eyes. Yeah...them eyes. Playboys have 'em.

I haven't decided to kick him out of my life. Yet.

But, he'll pay. He'll have to. MEOW!

Aaaw, Mel! Just Another Hollywood Husband!

When Mel Gibson and his wife (of umpteenth years) threw in the towel and called it quits, I was crestfallen.

I mean, here was a Hollywood hunk who managed to be faithful to his wife and mother of his six ( I think) kids amid all the temptation in tinseltown.

I took my hat off for this man. I thought -- hey, not bad. He could stay good for his wife and kids.

I suppose Mel Gibson was able to go on just for as long as his libido - and ok ok, his heart -- allow.

Mel Gibson is just another Hollywood husband. He bites the dust.

Why I am disappointed -- and I know I shouldn't be -- is that all around him were marriages falling apart at the slightest excuse. He remained with wife , Robyn. And Robyn with him, through thick and thin. In sickness and in health.

Of course, he has denied that his divorce was caused by his affair with this younger woman. Aaah....they all say that!

The girlfriend is a stunner of a belle from Eastern Europe. Couldn't resist her, could you?
Damn!

Men!

Here's the story:

It's official: Mel Gibson's girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, is pregnant.

The actor confirmed the news during a taping of NBC's The Tonight Show With Jay Leno to air tonight.

"I guess Im 'Octo-Mel,'" says Gibson, who already has seven kids with his wife of 28 years, Robyn.

Robyn filed for divorce six weeks ago amidst speculation that Grigorieva, a singer on Gibson's record label, was expecting a child.

"My wife and I, our marriage ended three years ago and weve been separated ever since then," Gibson tells Leno. "These things happen. It's unfortunate, it's sad, but you know she is an admirable woman -- we still got kids together, we're friends.

"Look," Gibson continues. "When it's all said and done, I did a pretty good hatchet job on my marriage myself. I'm to blame. If you're inclined to judge, put it here."

Gibson also says his separation from Robyn had nothing to do with Grigorieva, whom he didn't meet until 2008.

When asked by Leno if they would wed, Gibson says: "Why would you get married twice?"

According to reports, Grigorieva is in her second trimester and due this fall.
Grigorieva, 38, and Gibson, 53, came out publicly as a couple at the April 29 premiere of X-Men Origins: Wolverine in Los Angeles.

The duo became close after Grigorieva was hired to compose a song on Gibson's thriller, Edge of Darkness, which filmed last summer in Massachusetts.

American Idol 2009 -- And The Dark Horse Wins

Or you can call him the underdog.

Kris Allen is this year's American Idol, beating favourite Adam Lambert.

He must be the underdog Simon Cowell was referring to earlier this season.

I don't know what to say except that I think he's got zillions of sympathy votes. Although I know that as the season progressed, he drew a growing fan base.

The guy is likeable. Sweet.

He was probably more shocked than anyone else when Ryan announced his name.

Don't get me wrong. I like the guy but I think he pales in comparison to Adam.

To me, an idol has got to fulfill a host of criteria. He or she should be able to sound good on record and has potential to be great performer.
Adam Lambert fits all.

Kris is a good singer, but I think he is in the mediocrity league....
God, he doesn't even think he can sing so well.

That said, I believe that this dark horse won over more and more fans over time because he began to shine and displayed his "character" and "personality".

Perhaps, his simplicity and down-to-earth-ness count.

Yeah...being modest, humble and understated is his strong point, if you know what I mean.

Oh well. Although my money was on Adam :ambert, I did reckon that Kris might just get the crown.

An upset win did play in my mind.

I suppose, you may think you know who's going to win, but God disposes!

What else can I say....

Do read THIS.

American Idol -- Why Adam Shouldn't Be In The Running

Very odd that me, Witchbroo, finds the pull of American Idol so irresistible. God help me.

I'm gonna get to the point here. Won't be explaining why I'm semi-addicted to this season's AI. Perhaps because there are some real great talents there.

My 17 year-old niece, Zuleika, has been following AI since its first season. So, she's kind of an AI pro viewer.

On Wednesday, Zuli and her friends camped at her place to watch American Idol.

They are all Matt Giraud's fans. Ok ok. That's so simplistic. They are all of the five finalists' fans!
From Wednesday, they reckon they're going to have a very teary ride.

They are all in a dilemma becasue they did not want any of the five to fall. At the same time, they are realistic.

"Someone is gonna go home tomorrow," I told them -- Zuli, Erica, Samantha, Ai Lin and Jeya.

"No no, Aunty Jee. No no...sob sob sob," Zuli wept.

OMG! Is she nuts or what? Hahaaa...I'm a fine one to be yapping like that.

Here's my point and what I really want to say.

THAT Adam Lambert cannot be a contestant in American Idol.

BECAUSE -- he is in a class of his own. He is up there. He's a star ALREADY. He is damn damn good.

I know he was in the bottom three - no, gsap, it was bottom 2 -this week. But I think that's just unlucky, a one-off episode.
There's always going to be a first time for everyone.
Walking down the stairs the way he did must have irked America. Click HERE.

Adam lambert has already got it going for himself and American Idol can no longer be a platform for him to propel his career. He should be taken out NOW and be given a record deal.

Okay. I've said my peace so I don't have to hold my peace no more.

And by the way, When Matt was dunked out on Thursday, Zuli got sick. Really ill. No, not Swine Flu....just a bug. The Matt-Got-Dropped bug.

Malaysian Socialites -- Are They For Real?

Take it from me, people. Some of our socialites are really trashy. In the way they dress and the way they behave.

I'll tell you why. You just can't take the "jinjang, or the "shanty-ness" out of them.

Take it from me. I know what class is. What breeding is. I mean, just sitting beside an OKB (orang kaya baru) is enough to demonstrate the clear divide between style and trash, elegance and gaudiness.

No, folks. Our socialites are not for real. Okay. Many of them aren't. The genuine McCoys you can tell.

Indeed, you can tell them apart from the manufactured baru-kahwin-orang-kaya ones.

I was talking on the phone with a certain royalty recently. Someone I went to boarding school with in England.

We were talking about a party she went to recently and she was jaw-dropping appalled to see the manufactured glitziness of some of the ladies. Young newly-titled ladies whose husbands (also young) just got millions of ringgit in projects along with a "dato" for good measure.

They were dressed so "loudly", the room was swirling and dizzying that my friends almost fainted.

Blondies almost all of them, boobs (ok ok...cleavages) to show. and designer this and that from head to toe, it was obscene.

There was no elegance at all. Everyone was trying to outdo one another.

"No class, you know. Not that anyone should try but I think they tried too hard. Oh well, I'll know not to attend any of these mad functions next time," my royal girlfriend told me.

I know what she's saying. Being a great people-watcher and knowing a lot of KL people, I know that most of our socialites marry into wealth, not class.

You know that the kind of politics that we have here, we have so many newly-created millionnaires. I mean just look at their houses.

These status symbols are ugly structures mirroring the owners' poor and vulgar taste.

Well, enough said.

Malaysian socialites. Now that's a misnomer.

SIMON COWELL, You Da Man!

If I were American, young and can sing a tune, I'd definitely try out for American Idol. Imagine the possibilities?

Instant dream careers have been made from American Idol. Think Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, David Archuleta, David Cook.......and, of course, Jennifer Hudson.

So, have you been keeping up with the show?

Truth be told, and honest to God, I am no fan of the show. But, I must say that I am completely amazed by the magnitude of its popularity so much so that thousands, year in, year out, want to have a shot at it, a shot at fame!

I totally understand.

In fact, I so understand why so many people with zero talent insist that they should be shortlisted. That is so totally insane.

And they blame Simon Cowell for their failure to launch!

As we know, Brit Simon is by now a certified BAD GUY on the panel of judges. This is absolutely unfair.

I find that people easily hit him because, well, he is THE bad guy, isn't he? So let him take the blame for you not making the cut.

Simon says it to you face. Uncensored and usually what you do not want to hear. The truth, baby.

I find that I am usually in agreement with him. Randy Jackson is truthful, Kara DioGuardi is too and of course, dear Paula Abdul is sweet. They don't lie to the contestants.

It's just that Simon is....BLUNT. Doesn't mince his words.

And they don't like it.

You'd think that the three Americans would be blunt. But no...it's the Englishman who is. And he makes no apologies for his bluntness.
His honesty, as he puts it.

That's why I like him. Because he does not give anyone false hope. But when you're good, he will tell you so.

I was able to catch the auditions on TV, for some quirky reason. There were so many unbelievably stupid people who really thought they could sing! And they got so manic and mad when Simon told them that they could not.

I must say, though, that those who were shortlisted were generally polite and decent kids.

When they could not make it to the next round, they were disappointed, but they took it well and thanked the judges. Well brought-up American kis, I must say.

So, who is your favourite?

For me, I'm torn between Adam Lambert and rocker Allison.

And Simon is still DA MAN for me! Yes!

Dumbing Down in American Idol Auditions

Like really really down, it's unbelievable.
I'm no fan of the American Idol series. But I can get hooked because of the incredible drama during the coast-to-coast auditions.

I am convinced that after the bona fide geek William Hung whose down-to-earth honesty shot him to fame seven shows ago, many Americans have found the successful formula to instant fame. Simply by being really bad at auditions and showing a Godamm attitude.

Can anyone really be so stupid as to think that or she can sing when obviously there is NO talent at all in the first place?

It is unbelievable. And the drama that followed.

I am also convinced that a lot of them are acting students playing out roles in the auditions.

But oh well. It was all so entertaining.

Cheers! Here's to another bleah bleah season.
