congrats!

I blogged a couple of weeks ago on Jia Jia, known as Regine by world, who took part in a men’s shampoo reality show competition… she won! Congrats!



Tasks she had to perform, to prove she can be a man as well, included changing air tyres (like a male mechanic), opening durian husks (like a male Geylang stall operator), kicking a football (like F Ahmad the male), catch cockroaches…so gross, she cried on national tv over this one, I would too.

Jia Jia also had to survive catty comments from the other contestants, which I attribute to real jealousy and devious ploy to get more TV coverage. She was gracious enough to smile and shrug them all off; this calm attitude must be part of previous pageant training.

But anyway, I hope Jia Jia did a 360-degree attitude turn, shoot laser glares, give a wild victory yelp, execute two backflips & a somersault, and wave the trophy and 10,000-dollar cheque in their faces after the camera was switched off. Which, will be childish but immensely satisfying.
