Siyama: Village Of Warriors (2008) DVDRip.XviD-WiRA (Thai)

Plot
Three young lives from the present are mysteriously destined to travel back in time through a portal to an old forgotten city. It is an era of civil war among the people of Siam where the fight is to protect the capital city of Ayuthaya from being conquered and overthrown. Bloodshed is about to unfold among the small group of villagers loyal to their land and prepared to battle to the death with the opposing military troops of Ong Mien, known for their cut throat, piercing swords. Siyama led by, Kru Jom, uses religious sorcery to protect his small village located amidst a ravine populated by only a mere one thousand villagers and two hundred rooftops. By being the choice of passage towards the capital city of Ayuthaya, Siyama becomes a targeted obstacle for the gruesome military brigade of Ong Mien. Anna, Gif, and Bote from present day Bangkok are thrown into a gateway through time after coincidentally conversing about the history of warfare that took place in the ancient days of what was then called Siam. They suddenly appear out of no where right at the onset of battle causing utter confusion and havoc among the soldiers. These girls are forced to put their book-learned history knowledge to the test to see if they can save Siyama from being trampled through.

France Pop Star

Pop star Natalie Imbruglia & rock singer Daniel Johns split up

Pop singer Natalie Imbruglia has separated from her husband, rock singer Daniel Johns, after four years of marriage, reports say.

Natalie Imbruglia, 32, said she and Daniel Johns, who sings for Silverchair, had grown apart because of their work.

A statement by Natalie Imbruglia and Daniel Johns, who met in 1999 and were married on New Year's Eve in 2003, says: "We want to make it clear that our parting is amicable and we remain friends."

The statement added: "However, our career demands and our lives in different parts of the world have brought us to the point where unfortunately this difficult decision was necessary for both of us.

"We have simply grown apart through not being able to spend enough time together."

Natalie Imbruglia, who has been based in Great Britain, first found fame playing a role in Australian soap Neighbours, from which she launched her pop career.

Daniel Johns has been spending much of his time in Australia and with his band, and so the couple have been living on opposite sides of the world.

Song of sadness

The tragic tale of Quebec pop star Nathalie Simard

By Patricia Bailey, CBCNews.ca
April 21, 2008

Pop singer and former child star Nathalie Simard. (Des Ruisseaux Communications)

Earlier this month, Nathalie Simard announced she was cutting short the cross-Quebec tour for her comeback album, Il y avait un jardin. After a final Montreal concert on April 18, the 38-year-old singer said she would withdraw from the spotlight for good. Her reason: the seven years of sexual abuse she endured as an adolescent at the hands of manager Guy Cloutier has turned her off show business. In November 2004, Cloutier was sentenced to 42 months in prison for sexually assaulting Simard and another unidentified minor; he is now out on parole.

“I came back to prove that I was still able to sing. But this process opened my eyes. I believed I was strong, but I’m still fragile,” Simard told the popular Quebec entertainment magazine La Semaine. What she was seeking, Simard confided, was “more real and human” than what a career in the entertainment industry can offer.

The Quebec media has been uncharacteristically reserved in covering the latest chapter in this dramatic story, which has captivated the province since it broke four years ago. Perhaps the Quebec media are according Simard some much-needed peace. More likely, their silence is related to how uncomfortable Simard’s tale makes Quebecers feel, particularly those working in the entertainment industry.

Simard is one of Quebec’s most tragic figures. Her story is a bleak reminder of the sometimes exploitive nature of Quebec’s star system, a publicity machine often held up as an example of how the province is able to sustain its indigenous culture. Quebecers watch their own television and movies and listen to their own pop songs because they strongly identify with the performers. If pur laine Quebec is a big family, its entertainers are among its most cherished offspring. Who needs Justin Timberlake or Britney Spears when you’ve got Céline Dion and Star Académie prodigy Marie-Élaine Thibert?

Simard's 2005 memoir, Breaking the Silence. (Libre Expression)

Cloutier is viewed as the architect of the modern star-making machine. Like Céline, Nathalie Simard and her older brother René came from a large rural Quebec family where money was tight; their father was an unemployed lumberjack. Cloutier signed René in the early 1970s, shortly after the nine-year-old soprano won a prize on Les Découvertes de Jen Roger, a Quebec television talent contest. At the time, Nathalie was still a toddler. By the time he was 21, René had recorded over 20 albums; at one point, he was selling more records in Quebec than Elvis or the Beatles.

Nathalie recorded her first album at nine, and at 13, was withdrawn from school. She essentially lived with the Cloutier family for most of her adolescence, enduring a relentless concert and recording schedule. By the age of 13, she had three platinum records (for sales of more than 100,000) and two gold records (50,000-plus). Before Céline and Cirque du Soleil, the Simards were Quebec entertainment’s big success stories.

Cloutier, who also managed other Quebec personalities (including actor Clodine Desrochers and singer Natasha St-Pier) and produced the popular TV series La Fureur and Loft Story, understood the power of media convergence long before Izzy Asper and Pierre Karl Péladeau. Like his longtime buddy René Angélil (Céline’s husband), Cloutier’s career as an impresario kicked into high gear in the 1970s. This was post-Quiet Revolution Quebec, when the province’s media was expanding amid a groundswell for homegrown pop culture. A combination music and TV producer, talent agent and concert promoter, Cloutier soon developed a winning formula: he found performers with the talent and stamina to perform live, on TV and in the recording studio, and publicized them on every medium available.

Born in Lac-Saint-Jean, Cloutier cultivated the image of a self-made man during the era of “Quebec Inc.,” when the province was promoting itself as an economic powerhouse. Cloutier shrewdly exploited Quebec’s appetite for American-style entertainment, albeit in French. “I’m not a separatist,” he once told L’Actualité magazine. “I’m an opportunist. I ignore U.S. pop culture just as the U.S. ignores us. I am here to mine the Quebec market.”

With her perky pageboy haircut and stellar voice, Nathalie Simard was an impresario’s dream. In addition to her bestselling albums, she starred in two television programs: Le Village de Nathalie and Les Mini-stars de Nathalie.She also promoted her own line of clothing and was a spokeswoman for the Metro grocery chain.

“All the little girls born at the beginning of the 1970s in Quebec wanted to be Nathalie Simard,” writes her biographer, Michel Vastel, in Briser le Silence (Break the silence) (2005), a book commissioned by Simard. Vastel caused an uproar while promoting his tell-all. During an appearance on the popular talk show Tout le monde en parle, he wondered aloud why Simard’s financial and sexual exploitation went unnoticed for nearly a decade. As Simard tells it in Briser le silence, Cloutier would rape her while she slept in his family home, which was often filled with guests who had spent the night partying. Vastel accused René, her legal guardian at the time, of turning a blind eye.

In the same show, the journalist took on other big fish in the Quebec entertainment pond, blasting Quebec’s ADISQ, the industry association that represents Quebec music producers and performers, for not taking away Cloutier’s lifetime achievement award after the impresario pleaded guilty to sexual assault. Vastel also alleged that Radio-Canada was “profiting from the exploits of a pedophile” by continuing to produce shows with Novem, the company Cloutier founded.

Rene Simard, left, accompanied by his wife, Marie-Josee Taillefer, arrives at a news conference to comment on allegations from his sister's biographer. (Paul Chiasson/Canadian Press)

Vastel’s tirade was met with criticism from all corners. Ordinary Quebecers couldn’t believe he would dare to implicate René Simard, who remains a popular television personality. A few days later, René held a news conference denying the biographer’s allegations. Vastel’s fellow journalists accused him of not understanding Quebec or le monde du showbiz. Only veteran La Presse columnist Nathalie Petrowski commended Vastel, noting that it took an “outsider” to talk about the dark side of Quebec show business. (Vastel was born in Normandy, France.)

Quebec entertainment journalists are a strange breed. Sure, criticism and analysis exists, but those who earn their bread and butter writing for the tabloids and gossip magazines act, for the most part, like adoring fans. I once observed a rookie entertainment journalist apologize to actor Pierre Curzi (Les Invasions barbares) for asking him a political question backstage at an awards ceremony — even though Curzi had just declared he was running for the Parti Québécois. (He is now a member of Quebec’s national assembly.) A veteran reporter once revealed to me that he tries to be as neutral as possible when covering film and television, because he may want to write for the small screen some day. “Many of these people are my friends,” he said. “I’m not going to criticize what my friends are doing.”

This hesitation to criticize the big players in entertainment may be why Simard’s abuse went unnoticed for so long. As a journalist, disparaging Cloutier 20 years ago would have been akin to speaking ill of Quebecor Inc. president Pierre Karl Péladeau today. It’s possible, but it’s probably a career-limiting move. Taking on Cloutier would likely have been viewed as a form of cultural betrayal.

The Simard story is a reminder of the implicit understanding between entertainers, producers, publicists and the media that everyone will politely give each other what they need. As a result, stars are left alone as long as they pose nicely for pictures and answer a few banal queries. It’s a system that, for the most part, keeps the multimillion-dollar Quebec entertainment industry chugging along. But it also means that sometimes power goes unchecked.

Japan Pop Star

Utada Hikaru -Japan/USA

Utada Hikaru was born in the United States to a famous enka singer and a songwriter, who not only made sure that Hikaru inherited their talents, but also that she learned English before returning to Japan. As a child, Hikaru, spent time in recording studios soaking in the music and, at age 10, she began writing her own song lyrics in English. During that time, she was rocking out to bands like Queen and Bon Jovi, but later on got into R&B. By age 12, she had released three singles in the U.S. under the pseudonym, Cubic U.

When she released her first album, "First Love," in Japan, it immediately went to No. 1 on the charts and became the most popular debut album ever released in Japan, selling eight million copies. Utada is currently living in New York City, and is an undergraduate student at Columbia University.
(Quote from Time Magazine)

Her debut CD, First Love (1999), sold more than 9.5 million copies, making it the best-selling album in Japanese history

Around 8 years ago I made a short film using one of the tracks of Utada’s Automatic Album. Here is that track on YouTube. I hope you enjoy.

Mika Nakashima - Japan Jazz/Pop Singer

Its exciting to see young singers take to Jazz especially when they are mainly from the J-Pop, Rock genre. Mika Nakashima is truly a fresh breeze being a pop star and a Jazz singer. Born in 1983 she arrived on the commercial music scene in 2001 after being selected to act in a TV drama. She is probably the most serious female vocalist around her age. Her first hit the same year "Stars" sold over 500,000 copies. Her 2nd d single sold out on the first day. He next 3 singles sold over 100,000 copies each. She released "True" in 2002. Since then she starred in Nana and Nana2, two films. Nana gross over 4 billion yen last year. At 23 this is a truly amazing achievement. He has also charted in South Korea.

Here a a site for more information on the Nana side

While we are on the Nat Cole Song "Sentimental

Here is another singer from Korea that sings the same song who goes by the name of KANGTA. A good rendition for a singer that probably is not experienced in english as a language. There two places where the vocals seem to go off but as I mentioned this is common in live performances.

Here is "I Love You For Sentimental Reasons"

Japanese pop star deaf in one ear

Ayumi has sold nearly 50 million albums

Hugely successful Japanese pop star Ayumi Hamasaki has revealed she has gone deaf in her left ear, but vowed to go ahead with an upcoming tour of Asia.

The 29-year old wrote on her blog that her left ear "doesn't work anymore" and that it was inoperable.

The star is thought to have tinnitus, a ringing in the ear that can be caused by constant exposure to sound.

Ayumi is Japan's top-selling singer scoring 28 number one hits and has sold nearly 50 million albums.

She has known of her condition since going in for an ear check last year, according to her website.

FAME AND FAMILY: Chan mixed motherhood and work, sparking "the Agnes controversy."

Courtesy Agnes Chan

She's a pop singer with her own line of clothing, a children's advocate who leads Japan's UNICEF committee and a Stanford PhD who has co-authored a new scholarly book with education professor Myra Strober. But on this rainy afternoon, Agnes Chan is keeping up with a different facet of her career: she's on her way to the Tokyo Television building, where she's scheduled as a guest on a quiz show.

Stepping out of the chauffeur-driven car, Chan, 43, makes her way to an anonymous dressing room and begins a remarkable metamorphosis. She is dressed stylishly but without a trace of color: grey knobby sweater, a pair of black slacks with an attached, kiltlike skirt. She seems pale, fragile, exhausted from her overnight trip to Yokohama, where she gave a concert yesterday. But here in the dressing room, she quickly changes into a sparkly silver Lycra suit and fastens showy rhinestones to her earlobes. She applies mauve eyeshadow, finishes the look with berry-red lipstick and heads for the bright lights of the set.

Chan, PhD '94, knows about transformation. Born in Hong Kong, she became a singing star at 14. Three years later, at the invitation of a Japanese record company, she moved to Tokyo, where she was adopted by the Japanese public as a pop idol. The press dubbed her "the fairy who came from Hong Kong." Over the next quarter century, she kept cranking out hits in Japanese. But she also added steadily to her public portfolio, writing newspaper and magazine columns, appearing on television news and game shows and raising money for charitable causes.

It was her starring role in the "Agnes controversy," though, that earned her the most fame&emdash;and a measure of infamy. The episode erupted in February 1988, about three months after the birth of her first child. Chan, by then a celebrity with a half-dozen regular TV gigs, began bringing her son and a nanny to the television studio so she could nurse the baby in her dressing room. The arrangement enraged Japanese conservatives, who thought Chan should stay at home with her son. Feminists turned on her, too, accusing her of presuming to speak for working women who didn't have the same economic advantages.


GOODWILL AMBASSADOR: As a representative for Japan's UNICEF committee, Chan visits a nursery school in northern Thailand. At home, her longtime singing career still thrives.

Vietnam Pop Star Singer

Pop Star My Linh Chosen As Vietnam’s Face For Nature

Singer My Linh from Hanoi has been selected as the face of a Worldwide Fund for Nature’s (WWF) online forum targeting young people in Vietnam.

Linh is among the first five ambassadors selected by the international nature watchdog to launch the forum, located at the website www.connect2earth.org, in their own countries.

The forum serves as a place where youths can upload pictures, videos and opinions and make their voice heard about the environment and related issues.

Linh, one of the most popular singers in Vietnam, has published several albums in Japan including Made in Vietnam, Chat with Mozart and Let Love Sing.

The other four ambassadors include football player Samuel Eto from Cameroon, singer Elena Paparizou from Greece and two other musical artists from Gabon and Zimbabwe.

Pop Star Appeals Court Dismissal Of Libel Suit Against Blogger

Pop singer Phuong Thanh filed an appeal Monday against a Ho Chi Minh City court’s dismissal of her defamation lawsuit against a freelance journalist whom she had accused of sullying her reputation.

Thanh said the Tan Binh District court’s rejection of her plaint against Huong Tra on the grounds that the law lacked provisions to punish bloggers was unreasonable.

The two entries in Tra’s blog Cogaidolong – for which she had filed the suit – had seriously harmed her prestige and honor, she said.

The court’s verdict last Friday would create a dangerous precedent, giving bloggers carte blanche to defame others, she added.

Her suit alleged, among other things, that Tra had written in her blog that the security guards at Thanh’s concert last September 29 had “opened the doors wide to let people in.”

This, she claimed, suggested that the audience had been allowed in for free, and thus, the show was a failure.

Vietnam's pop idol gets Canada award

The Canadian consulate in Ho Chi Minh City said Hung's contribution through many cultural events was the key factor in persuading the jury.

Rihanna
Rihanna was born in Saint Michael, Barbados, to Ronald Fenty of Barbados[7] (of African and Irish[citation needed] ancestry) and Monica Fenty, who is of Guyanese descent.[8][9] She has two younger brothers, Rorrey and Rajad Fenty. Rihanna went to Charles F. Broome Memorial School, a primary school in Barbados, and then on to the Combermere School, where she formed a musical trio with two of her classmates. In 2004, she won the Miss Combermere Beauty Pageant and performed in the Colours of Combermere School Show. At the age of 15, Rihanna received her big break when one of her friends introduced her to music producer Evan Rogers, who was vacationing in Barbados with his wife. Rogers, along with his partner, Carl Sturken, helped Rihanna record material in the U.S. which was sent to various recording companies. One copy of Rihanna's work was sent to Jay-Z, who eventually signed her to Def Jam Recordings.
