What I want to be....Once I've made it
Talking about all the big plans, ambitions and dreams. Ok, so 10 years down the road you've made it. You've got all of Adam King's assets, an illustrious career, a huge reputation, and of course, lotsa wealth. So now the question is, is it time for retirement? Mid-life crisis? Spend quality time with the kids? Get a mistress?
Well, I've been doing my own research, to prepare myself for the mid-life crisis. I'm only 22, and I've thought long enough about immediate road ahead, to the extent that it gets so boring and monotonous. Hello! Where is the life?? So wrote a list of jobs that people do, once they feel there isn't much to be done anymore. Of course, the ideal job was like searching for a needle in a haystack, but look what I've found! Yes, I'm not denying it, I've found the job to excite my stagnant and rotten life, the alternative to my career that is going downhill, the only means of fame I can grasp before I fade into oblivion! Yes, I am so delighted, so ecstatic I could just shout from the top of Westin: I am going to be a judge for Singapore IDOL!!!!
SGI, the most happening show in the BOX. What better way to revive a comatose career than by sitting behind the panel watching tens of fame wannabes play the fool. And oh, the derided words you say lay a deeper impact than those crazed politicians at election rallies. You don't need to be a Mozart or big-time musician, just make sure u were SOMEBODY before....Its that simple. Just look at the judge line-up
Dick Lee- OK! I admit, this is the ONLY guy who possesses some serious talent in the industry. All those cliched SG songs. Taking the lyrics and changing the tune a thousand times, make it sound more and more cheesy.
Florence Lian- Oh C'mon, she was once a DJ with that really sexy voice on class95. What's that gotta do with singing anyway? Talking cock can get you places I tell you. Looking on the dark side, she could be on the other line when you call in for phone sex.
Douglas O- Poser, pure poser. I use to recall he singing with a pair of jeans on, thinking he was DonJuan, yah know he's gonna make the gals of that time swoon. Eew, I'm starting to get nauseous.
Ken Lim- When he's around, it only proves one thing. Talent and looks DO NOT MATTER in the industry. The artist is his pawn. He knows the market, plays with the contracts, and here you go, corporate entertainment. It's sad when the arts is exploited by money-mad moguls like him. In fact, CEO of playboy is more worthy my respect. Mr Hugh Hefner, started out writing about nude girls, took pictures of nude girls, and published them all by himself. Now, his career fully erected, he just spends his time playing with nude girls in big houses.
There really is a kind of sadist pleasure just being in that sit. Imagine, the fate of his/her future rests in your hands! After they sing that song, they're eyes looking at you, expectantly, like children begging in the streets. It's just so wonderful ain't it? Or what about the babe that you had the hots for but rejected you cos she thought you were some lil sick jerk? Imagine the look on her face when she steps in for the audition and stares right into your face!
Frankly....Well to be honest, I really hope my muse joins this contest. She sings really well.... And she's NEVER sung to me. I'm gonna be the judge and I'm gonna just sit back and enjoy myself. The rest of them will be impressed, that I'm sure. They will just wait for me to say my peace.
