Cinderella Wedding

My dad & I was watching some silly show on tv last night when he suddenly remembered they were telecasting S & K's wedding. We only managed to catch the last half hour. The moment we switched the channel, the first face we saw was Dr M, then Najib, etc. The VIPs were all sitting (solo) in a row,on a long table facing the stage. Funny how they arranged it that way was b'cos I initially thought it was a political conference rather than a wedding. In between the long table & the stage are round tables. The interior must have been obscenely expensive. Not that it's not nice... butI guess, in the real world, a fairytale would need many more waves of paper or plastic wands to come true.

S walked in, in her Cinderella outfit, a perfect theme to a rags-to-riches example.... except, in this case, it is deemed that the concept works both ways with K getting rich. Credit has to be given to the make-up artist for using the right powder foundation which not only absorbed all the oil & patched the wrinkles, but also plastered a plastic smile on K's face. Poor K would probably have to massage his face back to normal after smiling forso long. Fyi, the ceremony took more than 3 hours - the ministers looked bored, the MCs were out of breath with speeches that seem to solely consists of protocol openings (3 sultans were present) & the other attendees seemed to be in cloud nine.

Liked the part where they wrote, "27-year-old bla bla wore a bla bla whileher 47-year-old Prince Charming (?) wore a matching outfit." in the press. Btw, the 47-27 number sure makes a lot of sense when said in Cantonese e.g."sei chart" (which also means keep brushing/scraping) & "yee chart" (easyto brush/scrape).

Apparently, S planned to go on a carriage round KLCC but they cancelled it. Perhaps it turned into a pumpkin too soon. Some Indon fans were disappointed cos they purposely flew over to see the horse.... wait... no,the horse carriage... huh, the horse sitting in the carriage?...whatever... S ended up waving to her fans from a balcony. Think they got abit confused between Cinderella & Rapunzel... Um, at least Prince Charming still has hair.

After the cake cutting session, S sang a song she wrote herself after her earlier engagement. Can't remember the title but the only words that stoodout were, "....cinta sejati....bukan pasal harta..." Fact is, who's milking who? After all, she'a worth a whopping 40 million+/-.

My dad, who was overwhelmed with all the extravagance, sounded like a lizard going "tsk tsk tsk" till the end of the show.
