it was a blast watching Alicia’s concert dubbed “As I Am” last Aug 5 held at the SMX Convention Hall @ MOA. Thanks MTV!
Ok ok I couldn’t help but compare her (and the show) with the last foreign act I watched – Beyonce – sometime last year. But then I realized Alicia is Alicia. She definitely got her own groove. So despite the simply set up stage and not changing her outfit for the whole duration of the concert (she was in a plain yet sexy tight leather vest and tight black jeans) , the 27-year old singer songwriter was at her best all throughout the nite; repeatedly saying “I cant wait to come back to Manila” towards the end of the show. I actually became an instant fan =). Planning to get all her CDs as soon as I can…..
Though the SMX Convention Hall was definitely not the best place to do shows especially of that calibre. But then it’s understood that the show and the stage had to be relocated (originally set at the nearby open field) due to the threat of rain. But then again, people went there to see Alicia. And I think seeing her perform live was more than enough to forget about the 2 hours waiting time we endured.
Not to further sway away from this blogs’ title, a noted couple I know are apparently having “trust issues” lately. Mr. Doubtfire is lately rumored to be in a state of paranoia over his partner, Mr. Jackass. As per some credible observers, Mr. Doubtfire suddenly sprouts out from nowhere and comes in unannounced to wherever Mr. Jackass is holding his gym classes – which he never does before….hmmmmmm…..observers further added that more often than not, Mr. Jackass would look surprised seeing his unexpected visitor. mustve been brought about by stories concerning Mr. Jackass’ naughty naughty activities in the gym…oh well id just go on singing some lines from Alicia’s song “Karma…..” and it goes something like…..
"What goes around, comes around.
What goes up, must come down.
It's called Karma baby.
And it goes around."
