Je présente Shy'm!

So Sam just returned from France a couple of weeks ago and has been playing lotsa French songs in dance class recently. So she's bringing the French music scene to Singapore and now our class has a very odd love-hate-relationship with Shy'm! Shy'm's like this ultra-hip, ultra-cool, super-up-to-date, totally rad (bring it on!!) singer/dancer/celebrity/star/sex icon...famous in France, I guess. She's sort of like a french version of Rihanna (particularly in her song Reves d'Enfants, you can listen to it on imeem. Reminds me of Rihanna's Unfaithful.)

And you know, Shy'm is better than all the other American R&B clones because she's french, so that makes her cooler than, for example, Beyonce. Also, she has an apostrophe in her name, so that makes her better than all the other apostrophe-less celebrities. HEH :p

And I hereby declare that 'Baby' is the most overused English word in non-English songs. It's not just the taiwanese boybands that use 'Baby'. Somehow the image of Wu Zhong Xian in a cheesy pose keeps popping up in my head whenever I hear the word 'Baby'.

Oh well, welcome to the French music scene people!

One day, when I'm a rich and famous rockstar, I will change my name officially to Maddy'o (note the apostrophe). Or something more outrageous, such as MO Screwdriver, or Huff Mommy, or Lil Meow Meow... :( Maybe K3wlieZ, instead of Coolio. Haha.

Check this out: Music Stars Real Name. Quiz Time! Try to guess who these people are, as we know them. Paul David Hewson, Curtis Jackson, Artis Ivey Jr., Robert Alan Zimmerman, Rober Van Winkle (Winkle!!!), Reginald Kenneth Dwight, James Todd Smith, Carnell Haynes Jr., Alvin Nathaniel Joiner IV. Unfortunately, Usher's name really is Usher.
