Siti Nurhaliza's Concert


Siti's Concert Posted by Hello

Happy 10-year-Anniversary to Siti Nurhaliza (as an artist). Salute to her for celebrating it at the Royal Albert Hall, London, 2nd Malaysian to perform there after Sudirman Hj. Arshad. Congratulations for the great performance...

The performance was suppose to start at 7pm. Aqilah, Kak Emma, Mimi and I, were running all the way from Knightsbridge tube station coz we were "SoOo" punctual (exactly 10 minutes from the tube station) =P Hihi. Luckily, since Siti is a Malaysian artist, so is her audience, there is still a lot of ppl entering that time (Malaysian time, huh?) We managed to get in b4 the show started. Our seats were at the upper circle, and at the last top row. *sigh* However, as the hall was quite empty (60 to 70% full, i think), we moved further to the centre to get a better view. VIP includes the Royal Highness Sultan & Sultanah Pahang (jauh dtg support tuh), Datin Seri Rosmah (Dato' Seri Najib's wife) and Siti's parents (aww, so sweet...)

Siti sang a number of songs (i don't bother to count how many) but i remember she did sing one English song 'Get here if u can'. As expected, she had no problem singing well :) (I'm not a fan. That's good enough for a comment) Her english was okay when she did the introduction, closing speech and when she sang the song. Other than that, Siti conducted the show in BM (not so much of a problem, i guess, as more than 90% of guests were Malaysians). But as usual, i like ALL her dresses, decent and beautiful. They were sponsored by R(something2) Radzwil (don't remember the name). Her shoes were sponsored by Jimmy Choo (wow!). She wore a sparkling necklace sponsored by Habib Jewels.

Her dancers were from Warisan Kebudayaan Negeri Johor. The dancing was fantastic and very cultural. Mimi was excited to see The London Symphony Orchestra accompanied Siti's performance at the 2nd half. Siti is the 1st Asian artist they played for. Impressive huh? When she sang the closing song, she actually cried the tear of joy. Who wouldn't for such a great achievement. I was actually impressed by her career path. From village girl in Kuala Lipis, Pahang, to top singer, performing in Kuala Lumpur, to Royal Albert Hall, London. (Respect gak ah) Wishing her luck in her future life. Hopefully she stays the way she is. Decent, polite and humble. Show ended around 11pm.
