Renaldo Lapuz rocks American Idol Auditions!
08:56 AM:January 19th, 2008 in Thoughts
Check it out here.
Saw it last thursday on STAR TV's airing of American Idol season 7. And I got to say this is the best audition ever. The guy is Renaldo Lapuz. I suggest you check out his song hehe.
His song is titled "We're Brothers Forever".
AND HE"S A PINOY???
Filipino wannabe singer Renaldo Lapuz rocks "American Idol" auditions in Texas
(from http://www.pep.ph/guide/1524/Filipino-wannabe-singer-Renaldo-Lapuz-rocks-American-Idol-auditions-in-Texas)
QTV-11 recently aired the two-part premiere of American Idol's seventh season. One of the highlights is the entertaining audition of a Filipino who is tagged as the William Hung of this batch.
As soon as Renaldo Lapuz entered the American Idol audition room in Dallas, Texas, the three AI judges knew that they were in for an entertaining time. Wearing a flamboyant silver cape, fuzzy white adornments and fluffy white hat that had Simon written on it, the 44-year old Filipino from Reno, Nevada, was given his moment in the spotlight—and is now immortalized in the video-sharing site YouTube.
Renaldo performed his original composition titled "We're Brothers Forever," showing that he is not only a talented composer but can also carry a tune, unlike William Hung. Simon Cowell was unimpressed at first but later on, he waved his hands as if conducting the Filipino singer.
Fellow AI judge Randy Jackson was so amused that he called in AI host Ryan Seacrest to listen to Renaldo's performance. Meanwhile, fellow judge Paula Abdul stood up from her seat and motioned as if translating the song in sign language. She danced like a go-go dancer as Ryan and Randy sang merrily along with the enthusiastic singer.
Randy even went up to Renaldo and held his hand as he belted out the lyrics: "I am your brother / your best friend forever / singing these songs / the music that you love / We're brothers till the end of time / together or not, you're always in my mind."
After Renaldo's song number, Simon gave his assessment about the Pinoy's performance: "I'm going to make a prediction here. I have a horrible feeling that it's going to be a hit record. You're very entertaining. I actually like you but it's going to be 'No.'"
In the end, Renaldo did not get the chance to make it to Hollywood but he did have a blast getting his proverbial fifteen minutes of fame. He had this message for the strict AI judge: "Simon, you are a great person. You give chance for people to sing for the whole world. Thank you. You are Heaven's chosen to give chance to any talent free of charge. Even if there are many people who throw you negative words, there are many people who like and admire you. You are a great person, Simon."
AI host Ryan revealed that 24 people are on their way to Hollywood after passing the auditions in Dallas, Texas.

That was my last line on my toast to my Highschool friends, Tin & Erzon's wedding yesterday (January 20).
Hey who would have thought that these two would get together. I mean when we we're still in young and doing all these crazy stuff in school, these two never even had a moment. Erzon was busy chasing other girls and Tin was busy doing other things or two (may it be fling, an academic load or arguing with Charmie :p).
Then it came, one day Tin told me that Erzon came to school (where Tin was currently working at those moment). The rest were history. They have their ups and downs for the past years.
Erzon went abroad.
Left Tin lonely and all alone.
But Erzon came back
and brought Tin's wedding ring.
(sound's like that song Leaving on a Jet Plane)
Ok I admit it, i'm starting to dislike sappy romantic love stories, but this one is a dream come true. I've always thought that two of my highschool classmates would be wed. (And I was kinda hoping it would be me and someone, but i dopnt think that's possible) And hey, here they are.
Like I said to Erzon, "Finally"...
Finally, they have found hapiness...
To Forevermore...
p.s.
I think I'm beginning to like attending weddings... *wink*
Grace your's is coming up... can't wait
Ham Nga!

matagal ko ng naririnig tong commecial na to ng lady's choice sandwich spread. kasi ung isang bata, di masarap yung palaman nya sa baon nyang tinapay, and nagrerklamo sya sa kaibigan nya. so sabi nya, isipin mo na lang, ham yan.
e ano ngayon, bakit ako sumulat ng article tungkol dito, wala lang. natatandaan nyo yung dalawang bata na namatay dahil pinakain sila ng tatay nila ng pagkaian na nakuha sa basura? although akala nung tatay na hindi malalason ang mga anak nya, kasi palagi naman nila itong ginagawa dahil na rin sa kahirapan. at di lang pala sila, marami pa sa Bacoor cavite ang gumagawa nito.
Tapos, di pa mamumulat ang gobyerno sa ganitong kahirapan kung di pa nangyari. Kailangan bang may mamatay bago mabigyan ng pagkakabuhayan ang pamilyang ito, kung pwede namang naagapan. Salamat na rin sa pagsesensationalize ng Media (oo, isang linggo yata tong balita sa TV patrol, nakakasar mang isipin kasi parang pinamumukha nila ang kahirapan ng Pinas). E paano yung iba, dapat matulungan din sila di ba? so dapat ba may mamatay muna sa pamilya nila bago sila matulungan.
Ayun, nakakainis lang isipin, na yung bata sa Lady's choice sandwich spread, nagrereklamo dahil di masarap ang palaman nya sa tinapay, samantalang yung iba nga walang makain, sa basura naghahanap.
Napaka-contrasting, seeing we all live in one country, pero oo nga, ang society ay divided sa mayayaman at mahihirap.
Sana lang, yung bata sa Ladies Chioice commecial ay makuntento sa kninakain nya, may palaman man o wala. kasi ung iba walang makain.

*this article was inspired by another article...
Marami akong iniisip, lalo na yung mga araw na di tayo nagkikita. Lagi kitang naaalala, tsaka mga bagay na pinagdaanan at nangyari na sa atin. Iniisip ko yung mga oras na hindi ka masaya o kaya, ahh! hindi ko alam. Sabi mo, mas gusto mong itinatago ang nararamdaman mo. Na kaya mo ang sarili mo. Na mag-isa kang umiiyak at di pinapakita sa iba. Na malungkot ka talagang tao.
Pero siguro magiging masaya ka dahil dun. Yung oras na mahanap mo yung tao na maasahan mo, na aalagaan ka at pwede mong takbuhan pag gusto mong umiyak. Yung taong bubuhatin yung malaki mong back-pack, o pupunasan ng lukot na tissue paper ang mata mo pag umiyak ka, o yung patatawanin ka sa pinaka korning joke.
Pero siguro hindi pa ngayon. iguro merong nagpapahiwatig, pero di yun ang tanong. Baka takot ka lang na harapin ang mga pagaalinlangan mo, na ipagkatiwala ang puso mo. Ayaw mo lang masaktan (uli). At madaling intindihin yun. Kahit ako, alam mong mahirap ang pinagdaanan ko, pero ibang istorya yun.
Pero paano mo nga malalamn ang kaligayahan kung di mo mararamdaman ang kalungkutan?. Paano ka ngingiti kung di ka namn talaga umiyak? paano mo malaman ang nasa kabilang bahagi kung di ka tatayo at titignan ang nasa likuran ng pader. Tungkol naman talaga ditto ang buhay di ba?. Susubukan mo at pag nabigo, magpapatuloy lang uli pero kung maging maayos, edi ok. simple lang no? ang tanong lang, kelan ka magiging handa.
Buti nga masaya ka ngayon at buti na lang talaga. Salamt sa mga oras na magkasama tayo, sa mga tanong mo para lalo mo akong makilala. Natutuwa ako dun. Minsan nga iniisip ko kung paano talaga tayo nagging magkaibigan. Tinanatong ko palagi sa sarili ko, bakit ang swerte ko at nakilala kita. Sa lath ng tao sa mundo, bakit ako. Siguro, di ako titigil kakatanong nito.
Sabik ako sa iyo kahit kaunting oras palang tayo nagkakakilala. Masaya ako kapag kasama kita. Pag naglalakad tayo sa mall, kahit di ko mahawakan ang kamay mo, yung kaisipan lang na nasa tabi kita ay ayos na. gustong-gusto ko na titignan ko ang celfone ko paggising sa umaga at makitang nag-miscol ka. Lalo na pag tinext mo ako ng wala lang, kasi nalalaman ko na naiisip mo ako, kahit isang beses lang sa isang araw.
Di ko maipapangako na ako yung magbibigay sa iyo ng tunay na kaligayahan, na mabibigay ko ang mga gusto mo, na hindi kita masasaktan. Meron lang talagang mga bagay na mahirap ipangako, at naiinis ako dahil ganun. Pero maipapangako ko na andito lang ako para sa iyo. pag kailanagn mo ako, andyan lang ako. Siguro korni pero totoo. Pag gusto mong umiyak, papahirin ko ang luha mo. Pag kailanagn mong may magbuhat ng malaki mong back-pack, bubuhatin ko.Papatawanin kita kung gusto mo. Gusto kong maging yung tao sa buhay mo na di nawawala, katulad ng mga kapatid mo o ng mga magulang mo. Kaya kong nandyan lang para sa iyo, kahit kailan.
Nabanggit ko na sa iyo noon na maari ngang mahulog ang loob ko sa iyo. Nakakatakot no? .. kasi malapit na... konti na lang
