MY 1ST AUDITION

On monday, 10th April 06, i went for an audition session for a new reality program, 1 IN A MILLION which is produced by 8TV. Yes, this is my first audition. I have never join any audition before and i'm quite nervous about it.

I asked Shai to join me for the audition. So, both us went to Le Meridien where the audition was held. This is the first venue for the audition and KK was chosen to be the location for Sabah & Sarawak. Before this, 2 season of Malaysian Idol was organized by 8TV and supposed the 3rd season will be aired this year. But, due to some circumstances, Malaysian Idol was put on hold and was replaced with this new reality show. Paul Moss and Syafinaz will be the judges for this show.

Inilah no giliran aku

We arrived at Le Meridien at 9.30 am and registered for the audition. The crew brought us to the waiting room. There, i saw about more than 60 contestants waiting for their turn. We took the backseat and sat there blankly. Is this for real ?? We're so nervous. Everyone here seemed relax like noyhing happened. I asked around and found out that everyone had been to an audition before. patutla semua tak gelabah. Nak ilang gelabah, kitorang pun snap2 la gambar,

Then, ada sorang pompuan ni, one of the crew asked anyone on the floor that willingly to sing at the centre of the room while waiting for the turn. A guy, came to the front and sang Anuar zain - Mungkin. He has a good voice. Someon told me that, the person was a former contestant in Bintang RTM either in 2004 0r 2005. But he didnt make it to the final. Before this, he also tried his luck for AF4 but he failed to get thru. Maybe, he'll get thru this audition...

tu pulak, no giliran shai

Pompuan tadi, panggil lagi sapa2 yang nak perform. Tetiba ngan confident, aku ke depan dan menyanyi, boley ? Aku nyanyi lagu Hetty Koes Endang - Kasih. WOW!!! i got big applause from the crowd. Its a nice start, i think...Then, tetiba dah dtg gila...aku nyanyi lagi 3 lagu. Lets Stay Together - Al Green, Brian McKnight - One Last Cry & Cinta Jangan Kau pergi - Sheila Majid. Hahahaha...mmg gila kan. dan dpt tepukan gemuruh utk setiap lagu yg aku nyanyi tetiba aku berangan mcm buat solo concert plak.

kat waiting room, budak sebelah aku tu comel (bukan shai ye). Tu yg amik gambar ngan dia

Time for audition, kena panggil secara berlima in one group. Kebetulan, shai pun sama group ngan aku, dan semuanya lelaki (semua ke ?) 1st stage, hanya sorg staff dr 8TV jd jugde. Aku nyanyi lagu kasih tadi, sbb aku rs lagu tu aku nyanyi agak ok. Cuak gila masa tu. Aku nyanyi the 2nd verse dan juga chorus part. That judge tak kata apa pun, dan she asked to wait outside for the result.

inilah group aku. Aku, syai, abg polis dan dua org mamat rock (sapuan & amy). taks empat pun nak tanya2 nama

To cut short, i didnt make it. I dont even get thru the 1st round, damn!!! Other contestants yg sama group ngan aku dan juga mereka yg tgk aku perform sebelum tu, tak percaya yg aku tak dpt. Aku pun tak percaya. Aku rasa, tade la aku nyanyi teruk sgt. Setakat nak lepas, 1st stage shud be no prob dan ada staff 8tv yg lain kata aku boleh advance to 2nd stage yg mana Paul Moss & Syafinaz jd judge. Aku just blank dan tak tahu nak kata apa. Then aku terus balik. Aku tak tahu mana yg silap. Maybe i'm too cocky dalam waiting room, over2 nyanyi sampai 4 lagu. Takpun mungkin aku dressing tak cukup vogue. You know, aku ke sana masa opis hour, so, pakaian aku pun tadela vogue mana, opis attire je. Orang lain, semua pasang badan, macam nak gi clubbing, dressing masing2. Aku tak kisah aku tak lepas, tapi aku agak terkilan tak dpt ke 2nd stage. Tak dpt nak dgr komen dr juri profesional. setakat staf 8TV yang tak tau psl vokal dan performing then jd judge, pastu trus eliminate mcm tu je. Rasa mcm unfair plak. Tujuan aku pergi audition, nak perform dpn the "real judges" and hear the comments, tak kisah tak dpt ke tak. kalo camtu, baik aku suruh Acai atau Feroz je comment aku, better. sah2 komen Feroz, u have 3 tones je. Rendah, Tgh2 dan Tinggi. Tp aku tak kisah sbb dpt komen dr someone yg mmg talented dan tau bab vocal and performing. Sedey sgt, tak dpt jumpa Paul Moss & Syafinaz.

masa ni, aku ngan syai dan abis audition. turn abg polis plak, dan 2 org mamat rock tu tgh nervous tunggu turn diorang.

For that day, setakat aku tau, hanya 2 org je yg lepas 2nd stage tu, sorg laki yg peclob dan sorg pompaun ala2 Bienda tak jadi. Nampaknya, harusla kena mekap segala gi audition, patah2 riuk sikit pastu pakai baju peclob dan rambut kaler2. Vocal lite2 takpe yg penting dressing vogue. Sure dpt. Keji sgt, judge dr 8TV tu. SENTAP !!!! takpe aku nak pikir positif, maybe bukan rezeki aku kot, dan maybe judge 8TV tu pekak dan lesbian. Haih, jadi bintang karaoke kat K-BOX ngan Shogun jela. Bintang ke aku, kalo ada Acai ngan Feroz di situ, bersama2 berkaroks ?
