We look forward to more from Dato' Siti Nurhaliza.
Malaysia continues their love affair with the pop diva as she plans to release another album, later this year. In 2004, the much-loved songstress made history when she became the first non-Chinese entertainer invited to perform at the 15th Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan, singing a duet with Wang Lee-hom.Īside from being a Malaysian artist with one of the biggest followings in Indonesia, in 2005, Dato’ Siti held a successful solo concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London, with the British media dubbing her ‘ Asia’s Celine Dion’. That same year she won the South Pacific International Song and Singing Competition. She got her first international accolade when she won the ‘ Gold Award’ in the 1999 Shanghai Music Festival. Dato’ Siti started out as a talented youngster who caught the attention of the public when she won the 1995 RTM Juara Bintang competition at the tender age of 16. If someone were to ask who Malaysia’s biggest pop singer is, only one name would come to mind: Dato’ Siti Nurhaliza. Tyra may ask her girls if they, "Wanna be on top?" But none of even Banks' recruits have achieved the level of success Ling has in high-fashion. She even popped up in an episode of “Sex and the City” as herself and was featured in a George Michael music video for the track “Fast Love”. Ling has also appeared in every major fashion magazine you can think of, from Vogue to Elle. She has been photographed by giants like Mario Testino (for a Gucci campaign), Patrick Demarchlier and Richard Avedon. Since then Ling has worked with the world’s top designers including Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier, Valentino and Donna Karan. After just a year of modelling on home ground, she went to New York where she was snapped up by one of the most influential modelling agencies in the world, IMG. Ling was discovered first in a small fashion show, and a Tiger Beer commercial gave her some success in Malaysia. She has one of the most sought after Asian faces in fashion You might not know this face or the name to which it belongs, but Ling Tan has made a big splash in the international modelling world. While we think Sheila leans more to pop than jazz, there's no denying the beauty in her phrasing and the way her instrument moves with ease around a melody. In recent years, Sheila Majid has continued to be one of the most notable Malaysian names in music. She later returned to London that same year to perform at the jazz Mecca of music, Ronnie Scott’s. In 1996, Majid performed a sold out show at the Royalty Theatre in London’s West End. Majid also has a wide following in Japan and remains the first and only Malaysian artist to successfully infiltrate the Japanese market.ĭubbed Malaysia's Queen of Jazz, Majid has collaborated with some of the world’s best musicians, including American bassist Nathan East and Japanese violinist Aska Kaneko. She was one of the first Malaysian recording artists to break the Indonesian market and she even won the Indonesian BASF award for Best Female Artist in 1986, which was never before won by a non-Indonesian. Malaysia’s premier diva has been steadily conquering the international market over the past 20 years and continues to do so. He is still probably the most talked about Malaysian out there and we're huge fans of Uncle Jimmy and his ‘Choos’ The Queen of Denmark is a loyal client of his and so was the late Princess Diana.Īlthough Choo sold his 50% stake in the eponymous brand by 2001, it had already made a mint and turned him into a household name by that time. Everyone suddenly wanted a pair of Jimmy Choos: fashionistas, celebrities and even royalty.
The fashion mag gave the designer an 8 page spread, prominently featuring Choo's collection. He quickly became known for his fabulous designs.īy the time British Vogue came knocking at his door in 1988, Choo had already honed his craft. He graduated from the London College of Fashion in 1983 and opened his own shoe shop in Hackney three years later. Dato’ Jimmy Choo has become such a towering figure in the world of luxury footwear that the mere mention of ‘Choos’ incites gleeful looks from women the world over.īorn in Penang the son of a shoemaker, Choo crafted his first pair when he was only 11 years old.
When your name has become a rap staple with everyone from Lil’ Kim to Jay-Z giving you a mention, that’s when you know you’ve made it big. Shyne and Ashanti recorded his theme song and he has been mentioned countless times on shows like The Sopranos and Gossip Girl.
