Hi, Just-tin!!

Yes, its you! The one who left a not very friendly comment on my MDG review! Herro! I realise that my reply to your comment was so long that I think it deserves a whole entry by itself!

Here goes :

justin : Ur comment is so long I think I’ll reply you point by point..

“I think u are just parot-ting whatever others are saying. 1st of all.. how do u know jay can cat walk well?? i mean, just in the mere 2-3 seconds of video clip u could tell?? i could see that cindy canot catwalk well and adeline is just average and as for the rest of the girls cant really compare who is better cat-walker coz the clips are just too short and shoots were here and there..”

My view : Its not just from Mifa that I concluded Jay could walk better than the rest of the girls(note:she is not perfect, just better than the girls). There was this fashion show from 1U as well. Plus I thought I stressed enough on how all the things I wrote was solely my own opinion, so I am not sure if you are trying to change my mind with your comment or what… of course you are free to voice out your point of view as well but from your sentence structure, it seems like an convince more than opinion…

I know Cindy cannot walk…so cant come other girls..

Thats why I said there arent enough runway lessons or proper place to practice..

“2nd(ly),this is how reality tv works when it involves the viewers. i mean, look at american idol, u also sms or call in right? so what’s the difference?? obviously whoever got more people to vote for or same number of people voting more would win. But the catch is, whoever wins this atleast they are the top 12 contestant, just like american idol..judges chose the top 12 contestants..so whoever wins are atleast from the top 12..and lets just assume that all these top 12 has equal potential if not minor differences when u train them properly.”

My view : American Idol does not request the contestants to stay together, does not include one while episode about contestants bitching about each other nor does it have space for the contestants to play tricks such as acting cute, kind, pity etc etc etc. In addition, there are real judges to provide comments and advice each week and posing/expressions/walking/personalities are pretty much subjective compared to singing. You know a person sings out of tune/pitch when you hear it whereas different people might have different personal likings to whatever factors thats affecting the votes.

“3rd(ly),i think ringo’s lingery photo is quite alrite, i mean, u could see the clevage and the lace on top of the bra, the panties as well… this is how most of the lingery shots are taken.. unlike hanis’s jay’s and other girls where everything is covered up.”

My view : You obviously havent seen enough lingerie advertisement… or maybe you are just speaking from a guy’s perspective…. Honestly, I havent seen any lingerie ad with the model squeezing her asset with her arms that way. I am sorry Ringo, nothing against you, just trying to justify my point. PLUS, I did not say that Ringo covered her lingerie up. I was just saying that it wasnt a good picture overall.

“4thly,It’s human nature to vote for someone that u like,that u know, that u think that she’’s good or more deserving.. u cant say the voting system is unfair..i mean, if ur sister were to be in the show,dun tell me u wont support her all the way??? *think think-my dear *
obviously this is an entertainment bussiness.. more votes in=more money to the production team= a sucessful production=more similar shows with better quality=more money.so if u ask me if the voting system is unfair?? i would say this is bussiness..”

My view : I have given my example in my original post and I am not going to stress it anymore because if I justify somemore, someone might get hurt. Like I said, its unfair because some bad pictures taken earlier in the competition got to stay and some better ones actually got eliminated which is why I am saying that its unfair. Yes, I would support my sister but I wont support my favourite blogger blindly.

“can u say american idol’s voting system is unfair?? no right?? u havent even thought about it previous even right?? why?? coz all their 12 contestants are equally good if not just minor difference… and for the malaysian dreamgirl, all the 12 contestants are just average girls..and it’d be the best of the average while in american idol it’ll be the best of the best who will win.”

My view : Oh yes I have thought about it all the time even before MDG started because I have been watching so many reality shows here that uses the voting system. American Idol, Australian Idol, So you think you can dance US and AUS etc etc. Like I have said before in my reply to your second point, its different(refer back to my reply).

“so my conclusion is: u are just following what others are saying! very dissapointed at ur review.”

My view : And to your conclusion, I am even more disappointed by your inability to acknowledge a few points that I have pointed out before anyone(at least I havent read of them yet) which are my point #1, #3(on bandwidth), #4 and #6. Truly, deeply, disappointed.
