Step Up...the movie





After "Take the Lead", here comes another one of those dance movies that just makes me want to get up and dance. The latest buzz that everyone seems to be talking about is "Step Up"...not the Bloom conference, but the movie.

I can't wait to see the movie...but when will it appear on our Malaysian cinema screens, that is the question. In the mean time, to whet your appetites, I've put some of the movie clips and music videos...and they are so cool! The dance moves are like a fusion of Hip Hop and Ballet....hmmm, seems a bit like the Funky Jazz I do in my gym. But anyway...the female lead, Jenna Dewan, also happens to be one of the actress in "Take the Lead" where she did the "threesome" at the dance competition. Now is her turn to be the female lead in this movie. To give you a glimpse of what is in store, here's a brief synopsis of the movie. Enjoy!

Everyone deserves a chance to follow their dreams, but some people only get one shot. Tyler Gage (Channing Tatum) is a rebel from the wrong side of Baltimore's tracks - and the only one thing that stands between him and an unfulfilled life are his dreams of one day making it out of there. Nora (Jenna Dewan) is a privileged ballet dancer attending Baltimore's ultra-elite Maryland School of the Arts - and the only thing standing in the way of her obviously brilliant future is finding a great dance partner for her senior showcase.

When trouble with the law lands Tyler with a community service gig at Maryland School of the Arts, he arrives as an angry outsider, until his skills as a gifted street dancer draw Nora's attention
Now, as sparks fly between them, both on and off stage, Tyler realizes he has just one performance to prove that he can step up to a life far larger than he ever imagined. .Featuring the directorial debut of leading choreographer Anne Fletcher, the film also stars R & B superstar Mario, Drew Sidora as well as rap legend Heavy D.


Note: Due to the long suffering my friends have to endure to download the video, I have removed the clips attached to this post...BUT you can always watch them here Have fun!!

Calendar boy

The long queue snaked along the walkway outside Espanda club and it was only 8pm. At the entrance the organisers were busy giving away doorgifts and free drink coupons. Behind the stage, 30 nervous young men were getting ready for the final round of interview. Inside the club, it was already jam packed with people waiting impatiently for the event to start. There was hardly any standing space left and yet people were pushing their way through to get a better view of the stage while the long queue kept getting longer outside. Finally there were lots of cheering and wolf whistles, the young men were coming out to do the catwalk. Dressed in jeans and body hugging white T-shirt with "I'm A Hunk" printed in front, to show off their muscular bodies, all 30 of them looked liked cover-guy models vying for the title of....New Icon/New Tide's latest 12 Hunks of the Year 2005. In between interviews, there was also a special presentation from our Malaysian Idol, Daniel as we...

PlanetShakers in Malaysia again

Been too busy to go for the Planet Shakers Conference...aiyah, what to do, so many things going on and with Christmas coming. Sometimes I wonder whether we are doing too much. After all God must have a reason for giving us only 24 hours in a day. While we try to accomplish more with the time we've been given, sometimes we wish we have a 48-hour day. Hmm...does it seem surprising that Jesus never rushed anywhere and yet was always on time and accomplished a lot of things?? Anyway, found a sneak preview of what's happening over there...wish I was there. Wish you were there but can't, just click on N ª R r Ø w ª Y ¿ Hey, tonight's the last night if you can make it....

Holidays, Birthdays...and Happy Days!

“Are you getting married?” My colleague asked me as she eyed the book on Decorating for newly weds curiously on my table. I just laughed and shook my head. Apparently I had the itch to redecorate my bedroom so I had been borrowing all the books on interior decorating from the library. I actually didn’t notice the title of the book until I was taken aback by her question. Well since the unfulfilled desire to own my own place is still not within my reach, the best alternative goal within my reach was to redo my bedroom…hence the book on my table. And probably also the creative bug in me is starting to itch having been neglected for too long…doing other boring stuff! So my plan was to get all the inspiration and ideas as much as I could before the DeepaRaya holidays looms near. It’s seldom that we have two major national holiday celebration back to back so when it happens, it’s usually a long break. It also happened that Deepavali was right smack before my birthday too. So with th...
