Secretaries Week with Ning Baizura @ JW Marriot, KL

My boss's Technical Assistant (we don't have a Secretary in our dept) was kind enough to let me tag along today with our company's Secretaries Week groupie for this year. They have chosen JW Marriott, KL this year whose featured artist is Ning Baizura and her protege Nikki.

Ning Baizura is really a first class entertainer. Her voice was really powerful and she was very good with the audience. Quite an entertainer. Even her protege Nikki was good. When they performed their duet, "Drama", it was spectacular.

Lovely dress, Lovely Bod too!

just a short video, my arms were too tired to hold on any longer

Ning sang quite a number of songs, beginning with her early hits. I was quite surprised that I knew most of her songs. Yes, I do remember buying her album back then, when she just started. There was no other singer who sang like her, there still isn't actually, even till now. She even did some cover versions, a few timeless English songs. Of course she was superb.

Before the show, we had a chance to even take a photo with Vernon, Ning's Manager. A bunch of us at the office have been his loyal readers of his blog for quite sometime now. He looked somewhat shocked when we approached him for a pic. He must have thought Ning would be the only one who will be sought out for photos that day. Puhlees, for a blog with more than a million unique hits... he should not be so surprised!

The meal was good, we had what seemed like an endless 18 course Chinese Meal, well not exactly 18, but you know what I mean. Thank goodness I am not on a diet, so I managed to enjoy every course to the max. Yummy!
