hello

thank you for following this little page of mine.

this interest of stalking some famous people in singapore, and sometimes in other parts of the world, well, hardly has come to a halt for some time now.

with the introduction of the cray cray and unnecessary cip exit/entrance which many record labels and concert promoters have started using is really annoying here which has made it almost impossible to get meet these famous people of late.

and as one gets older, priorities change with the different responsibilities that pops up as well.

but perhaps i should start to reminisce some older photos of the other famous people that's not found here just yet heh heh

oh well, we'll see..

maybe when school gets less crazy, which i doubt, you might see updates of newer famous people? heh heh

cheers

me.

JOSEPH VINCENT

sorry i havent been updating this - clearly, singapore's not been the most exciting city of late and with the invention of the vip exit at the airport, it has been harder than usual to 'bump' into these famous people - DAMN YOU JET QUAY!!

in other news.. i chanced upon one of the many many youtube stars who bumped into town this week as part of the yearly music festival - music matters.

this year, music matters introduced a new event as part of the festival, youtube fan fest!

the festival brought in twenty you tube stars to town to perform over two days including BOYCE AVENUE, DAVID CHOI, RYAN NIGA and CHESTER SEE!! :DDD

met JOSEPH VINCENT after his set at clarke quay while he was roaming around with his band and camera crew

he is rather nice and agreed to pictures and signed an autograph.

here's the other picture we took.

and here's how his autograph looked like - well, i could forge it for you easily, any takers? #justsaying

LITTLE BOOTS

so VICTORIA HESKETH, or more commonly known as LITTLE BOOTS turned up in on our shores for a week of festivities from deejaying at the Audi Fashion Festival after-party along with performers like AZEALIA BANKS, to the YouTube Fan Fest, to Music Matters Live!!

LITTLE BOOTS was here some time last here to deejay at STEREOLOUNGE (currently known as The Royal Room) at Pan Pacific Hotel but who wants to watch her deejay, rather than watching her play LIVE, right? heh

met her as she was going around clarke quay exploring the rest of the other acts playing at Music Matters Live..

minus the size of her feet (therefore she was known as LITTLE BOOTS), she is one cute and tiny wee girl!! she is so so cute no kidding.. 

told her about the story of how i came to 'discover' her back in 2009 when i was in SYDNEY and the radio stations literally had her single 'REMEDY' being 'STUCK ON REPEAT' on their stations..

she looked very happy upon hearing that and she was really funny when i told her she was the reason, for me at least, why i came out to Music Matters this year.. and her reply, 'you're probably the only one!' HA HA!!

too cute is you ask me.. 

she very kindly signed my copy of her debut album 'HANDS' and a photo i printed from the newly released album 'NOCTURNES' :DD

AT SUNSET

these aussies were in town to play at the this year's music matters live and i bumped into them after they were done with their first of the three shows here on our shores, at the beer market!!

i gotta say that the brothers ANDREW and HARRISON KANTARIAS are so bloody cute and tiny and they have such gorgeous eyes. and JAE CURTIS looked somewhat like TAYLOR LAUTNER!!

HARRISON decided to ask me what they should have for dinner and as soon as i suggested the classiest food of them all - MACCAS, both ANDREW and HARRISON looked really happy and excited (er.. why?) while JAE stood glued to his communication device heh heh

no kidding - HARRISON is such a cutie.. those eyes.. <33 how could i have let him leave our shores without a photo of just us two? :P

here's what the boys signed for me :DD

LAWSON

Andy Brown

Adam Pitts

Ryan Fletcher

Joel Peats

so the boys of LAWSON are in town as part of their promo ASIAN promo tour covering THAILAND, SINGAPORE, MALAYSIA and PHILIPPINES before hitting AUSTRALIA.

met the boys as they were making their way back to their hotel from a day of promo which saw them visiting the bird park, a school and an acoustic show at the 987fm Scape studios..

they were really nice and approachable, and were pretty good looking.

however, i would have paid more attention to them if they dont have an ex-V member AARON BUCKINGHAM as their manager HA HA!!

anyways, the lads will be playing songs off their debut release, CHAPMAN SQUARE, tonight and will have another day of promo duties before jetting off to the next destination to continue on their promo tour..

here's what the boys signed for me.. :DD

and here are more chances to catch a glimpse of these lads:

LAWSON AUTOGRAPH SESSION
5:00PM
BUGIS JUNCTION LEVEL 1

TAKE-A-PHOTO WITH LAWSON 
7:30PM
HMV Somerset Store (313@Somerset Level 4)

well, you are welcomed!! :P

and here's some more additional photos from meeting the lads..

 

 

AARON BUCKINGHAM (V)

'CAN YOU FEEL IT?'

YES I CAN!! after what seems to be almost a decade of going crazy over one of my favourite boybands, V, i have finally met one-fifth of the band!!

AARON BUCKINGHAM is currently the manager of 4-piece pop/rock band, LAWSON, who is in town as part of their Asian promo your before hitting kangaroo/koala land.

obviously my main aim of trying to see them when they are here was to meet the manager, AARON!!

and so i did and it was really, really fun.

i did meet all five of them (LAWSON + AARON i.e) but i just had to get my priorities right ha ha

the band + manager + crew got off the bus shortly after touching down on our soil and we greeted them before a very semi-tired, semi-drunk AARON spotted what i was holding and pointed in my direction and shouted, "V!!"

guess what i did? i walked past the band and went straight to AARON, being absolutely oblivious to the four - OOPS!!

and then i started blabbering non stop.

AARON asked for my name as he signed on my album and singles, and mentioned 'i don't recall we released that much stuff!!' and also apologised that 'the rest of the boys aren't here with me on this trip, maybe next time'.

and i made him promise, and in reply, he said 'yeah, when we, hopefully, do a reunion tour, we'd come to Asia' - AWWW!!

THAT'S NOT ALL - and as all these craziness was going on, one of the members of LAWSON, whipped out his mobile phone and started taking photos of AARON, the V album + singles and i and made sure he's got a good shot before he made his departure from us even though AARON exclaimed 'GET OFF US!' a few times HA HA!!

he also asked if V was big in Singapore then, i had to be honest and said 'no, not really'

he was quick to come back with 'ahhh so it's just you?' and a giggle ha ha

i then explained that my ex bought the album for me after we broke up because i won't stop talking about the YOU STOOD UP performance on TOP OF THE POPS with them in the shower and then we both laughed and he said 'yeah you liked that didn't you?' HA HA!! DUHHHHHH!!

and so after he made sure he signed everything, i asked for some photos for i was greedy and only one, was clearly not enough.. HA HA!! :P

here's two more with me removing my glasses which he said 'yeah i do that sometimes', also declaring that he was as vain as me.. HA HA!!

before we bid goodbye and goodnight, AARON said 'it was really nice to meet you, Daniel and im sorry if it's a little messy as i haven't really signed autographs in a long, long time' - HOW SWEET IS HE?!?

i look forward to meeting him as many times as i can on this trip ha ha :P

meanwhile, here's what he's signed for me during that 'one-to-one meet and greet' with AARON BUCKINGHAM :P

and now i got my eyes set on LEON PISANI, MARK HARLE, KEVIN MCDAID and ANTONY BRANT now to get my album and singles completely signed heh

also, please, Please, PLEASE, make that reunion a reality..

here's leaving you with some pictures of me in awe.. :P

BLOC PARTY.. almost

MATT TONG

GORDON MOAKES

RUSSELL LISSACK

so we met 75% of the members of BLOC PARTY shortly after their arrival onto our shores

we actually met all four of them but band lead, KELE OKEREKE seemed to be in a hurry and it was rather difficult to stop him.

anyways, the remaining three members were very sweet and kindly agreed to both autographs and photographs.

not sure about you, but i am absolutely crushing on RUSSELL LISSACK!! :P he is so so cute isn't he? :P

hoping i get the chance to finally get KELE to stop for an autograph (or two) and a photo!!

fingers, toes, ankles, knees, wrists and elbows all crossed!!

and here's a peek at the, currently incomplete, autographs of the band.. :DDD

im coming for you, KELE!! :P

FUN.

JACK ANTONOFF
FUN.

NATE RUESS
FUN.

ANDREW DOST
FUN.

so i met the guys from the newly crowned grammy winners FUN. as they touched down!!

it was very unplanned and i was surprised on many levels when i met them, so unprepared!!

judging from the photos above, you know i don't look the best as i usually do (HA HA!!) due to all the shocks :P

NATE was the best dressed, JACK was dressed in hotel room slippers with his hoodie and ANDREW looked rather lost to be honest ha ha

they are looked rather tired, possibly from that long flight from Auckland heh

upon arrival, JACK realised that they were going to play at the HARD ROCK and it took him by surprised and he seemed rather excited!! HA HA!!

you should look at his face, you'd be laughing like i laughed at him - OOPS!!

and here's what they signed for me..

JOSS STONE

so JOSS STONE fina-fina-finally made it to our shores as part of this year's MOSAIC MUSIC FESTIVAL!!

it's been over TEN YEARS since she debut on our radio with FELL IN LOVE WITH A BOY and she's since released 6 studio albums and she FINALLY landed on our shores!!

met her shortly after she landed here and she was obviously shocked to see that there were fans, us, waiting for her!!

and when she asked what my name was and learnt that i have the same name as her brother, daniel, she explained that the lyrics in one of her songs, BIG 'OL GAME, was about her brother..

the next second, she started singing acapella that few lyrics..

WE WERE IN AWE!!

she is so so sweet and she looked really pretty too heh

and when i stressed that we've been fans since FELL IN LOVE WITH A BOY, her reply was..

"i didn't know i had fans in Singapore.. i hope i don't disappoint at the show!!"

is she sweet or what?

anyways, she snap some photos with us and signed some stuff before catching up with her entourage..

and here's another photo with her..

and here's what she's signed for me.. :DDDD

ELLIE GOULDING

OMGGGGG WE JUST MET ELLIE GOULDING!!

so, we just met one of the most anticipated acts slated to appear on our shores so far this year!!

I KID YOU NOT but this is way beyond excites!!

we have heard STARRY EYED/ LIGHTS/ FIGURE 8/ ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN a trillion times but.. meeting the lady herself in person is.. WOWOWOW!! :P

as you can prolly tell, i am bloody excites and happy about this.. HA HA!!

met her shortly after shes arrived in singapore and she was so nice to have stopped to sign some autographs AND TAKE SOME PHOTOS with us!!

all these youtube encounter videos and forums talking about how difficult it is to meet ELLIE GOULDING does not do this any justice. AT. ALL!! :P okay, possibly something must have happened in the past.. OH WELL!!

told her we been waiting for her to come to singapore for forever and she was so cute when she replied "im sorry to have made you wait.." - is she sweet or what!!

she also explained that she's got her beanie on for she's usually got bad hair day but will not put the beanie back on after she's washed her hair - very inside information me thinks heh :P

so after a quick chat, we decided to leave her to rest and she HUGGED us all goodbyes with a 'so lovely to have met you guys'..

AWWWWW.. <3333 br="">
here's leaving you with an autograph from miss ELENA JANE GOULDING :DDD

PATRICK J. ADAMS

so PATRICK J. ADAMS, who plays MIKE ROSS on SUITS, popped by for a few days as part of his asian tour, beginning in singapore :DDD

managed to meet him after the invite-only event at ROYAL ROOM, where he stopped for some autographs and a photo.

on this asian tour with PATRICK, was his girlfriend, TROIAN BELLISARIO who plays SPENCER HASTINGS on one of my favourite tele shows now, PRETTY LITTLE LIARS.

let's just say she is not the nicest persons we have ever met though she signed some stuff for us nonetheless..

so back on track with PATRICK, he is so bloody charming.. :P

he has the blue eyes, almost as blue as the sea in indonesia - very heart meltable..

i see why people are following SUITS, season after season.. heh

maybe i should start too ehh? :P

and here's leaving y'all with some stuff which he's kindly signed.. :DDD

JOSÉ JAMES

people often tell us how 'lucky' we are when it comes to bumping into celebrities but more often than not,

it's mostly all about being at the right places and at the right time.

truth be told - that was exactly what happened when i bumped into JOSÉ JAMES!!

JOSÉ was in town as part of his world tour, supporting his most recent release NO BEGINNING NO END where he played to an intimate audience at TAB.

i was at the airport the other day for work-related business and i caught a glimpse of JOSÉ JAMES and his entourage, around the corner of my eye, walking to the check-in counter next to me!

he looked fresh and slightly surprised that he was stopped ha ha
i like throwing such surprises to these celebrities heh

JOSÉ also kindly agreed to a picture with me, despite being pretty early in the morning.

he asked where i was travelling to and i told him i was there for work.

shook my hand and wished me a good day ahead as i wished him safe travels to the capital of malaysia, continuing his world tour.

clearly, it was a shock to me therefore there werent any autographs heh

till the next time he returns.. 

KINGS OF CONVENIENCE

KINGS OF CONVENIENCE - the folk-pop duo which consist of ERLEND OYE and EIRIK BOE were the first ones to play at last saturday's LANEWAY FEST and im pretty sure that was the organiser's trick to get all the festival go-ers there early!! :P

anyways, we met these two hours after their gig and take this from me - THEY ARE VERY, VERY UNFRIENDLY!!

prior to meeting them two, we have been warned by the other fans that don't fall for their friendly looks on the images off google nor the happy and folkish music they play for thinking that these guys are.. nice, approachable and friendly..

then again, we experienced it first hand ourselves and the rumours are true - these guys are one of the most unfriendly celebrities on earth!!

ERLEND sure looks like he's stuck in a generation of that even before he was born.. he would reluctantly sign and refused photos.

as for EIRIK, he is the nicer of the two as he walked back to us to sign some autographs. however, his autographs are so inconsistent.. heh

i wish i had more positive things to say about the experience of meeting these two but the only good thing about them is the music heh heh

and here's leaving yall with their reluctant autographs..

KINGS OF CONVENIENCE played at this year's LANEWAY FESTIVAL here in SINGAPORE at THE MEADOW, GARDENS BY THE BAY on 25 Jan 2013

TAME IMPALA

Mink Mussel Creek
Tame Impala
Singapore 2013

Dominic Simper
Tame Impala
Singapore 2013

so we met 50% of TAME IMPALA shortly after they've landed here in singapore.

reason we only managed to meet 2/4 of the band is cause the other two were too tired and have gone up to their rooms upon checking in at the hotel - ha ha

i really wanted to meet KEVIN PARKER though.. heh oh well..

fingers crossed they'd make their way back here soon.. :))

anyways MINK and DOMINIC looked really tired from the flight so we didnt bother them too much after we got a photo and some autographs heh

here's the incomplete autographs of the band heh

TAME IMAPALA played at this year's LANEWAY FESTIVAL here in SINGAPORE at THE MEADOW, GARDENS BY THE BAY on 25 Jan 2013

ALT-J

Thom Green
Alt-J
Singapore 2013

Gwil Sainsbury
Alt-J
Singapore 2013

Gus Unger-Hamilton
Alt-J
Singapore 2013

so we met the winner of the 2012 mercury prize, ALT-J, who were also in town as part of the first date of the australia-singapore annual LANEWAY FESTIVAL this year!!

as you can tell we didnt manage to meet the entire band as lead singer JOE was mostly nowhere to be found with the other three.

and these guys are really nice.. :)) i like the geeky look on GUS, THOM's pink hair and GWIL's blonde hair and his smile.. then again, when you're british and opens your mouth to speak, you're a winner by default. yes, im biased like that ha ha

anyways i sure hope these guys will be back on our shoes to play their own gig in the near future heh fingers crossed!!

and here's what i got the 75% of the band to sign.. :DDD
