Talent Show

There has been a boom and lots of “k-ching k-ching” $$$ in the entertainment industry with the introduction of creative reality and talent shows such as Amazing Race, America’s Next Top Model, American Idol, Britain’s Got Talent and lots more.


I used to be hooked in front of the laptop downloading and watching America’s Next Top Model and hogging the TV at home for hours and hours just to watch the latest season of Amazing Race (the US version… not the Asia one cos the Asia one is pretty lame *cough cough*). The latest addition to my crazy TV addict programs list is......


It is similar with Britain’s Got Talent but of course, without meany Simon Cowell. The judges are Red Symons, who plays the Australian version of Simon Cowell (guess it’s a norm to have a mean judge in every talent show… sigh~), Tom Burlinson (don’t know much bout him but he’s way much more better looking than Red) and the very pretty, sexy and talented Dannii Minogue. Best of all, its host by Grant Denyer which is also the host of “It Takes Two” and “Dancing with the Starts”. He’s a real cutie and also a shortie *ha ha ha*.

This show is like the coolest talent show ever existed in the television history. And best of all is that Australia’s Got Talent is showed on national TV, not on pay-tv like Australia’s Next Top Model. Australia’s Got Talent is so cool that they accept any type of talents on the show. Be it dancing, singing, whistling, acrobats, and heaps more. What really caught my attention was the performance by these 2 guys using giant slinky. Both of them are really talented and gifted. I really respect them. They call themselves as “Carpe Idiotus”.

This dynamic duo is made up of a singer/songwriter and a performer which has hilarious humour. I find that they are another version of the “Umbilical Brothers” that never fails to put a smile on your face on a dull day.

I shall bore u no more with the facts and let you check out one of their performances on Australia’s Got Talent.


You can also check out more on them at their website http://www.wcp.net.au/


Here's another video, from Britain's Got Talent. The performance was so cool :)




Enjoy & Have a nice weekend ahead!!
