Novel 5 - MI Meets AI And AF In KL Tower

The Idol Fellowship (IF) is a fictitious, informal gathering of American and
Malaysian Idols. The top 3s of each American Idol (AI) season and the coming Malaysian Idol (MI) top 12s are automatic members.
Likewise with the top 12s of each Akademi Fantasia (AF) season.
Vince Chong is the number two of the IF, since he is the very first Malaysian Idol to emerge. He is the champion of AF’s first season.
The IF’s number one is Kelly Clarkson, the attractive champion of AI’s first season, who is somewhat like a foster sister to Vince in the US.
AF season one's number 2, Khai (Khairul Nizam Wahi) is another important member of the IF.
Khai’s Persian cat, Nemo, is the most important character in the IF, because it is through this magical, teleporter cat that the Idols meet each other at different meeting places around the planet.
There are 10 simple rules to follow in the IF, and one of the most important is nobody gets romantically involved (whether same sex or otherwise) with fellow Idols.

The 10 finalists of Malaysian Idol enter the KL Tower. They enter the same lift which is to take them to the observation deck.
The 10 are KL-ites Jaclyn Victor, Andrew Tan, Fahmi Zakaria and Zamil Idris, Penang-born Victor Lee, Ipoh-born Vick Teo, Johor Baru-born Dina Nadzir, Sarawakian Saipul Bakeri, and Sabahans Nikki Palikat and Rydee Rahim.
They are aware of the Idol Fellowship (IF) which gathers the top 6s of
Malaysian Idol (MI), Akademi Fantasia (AF) and American Idol (AI).
Jaclyn, 26, who is one of the most popular contestants, is an acquaintance of Vince Chong, who is the deputy president of the IF and the champion of AF’s first season.
A short while after they enter the lift, a black out occurs. “Help!” screams Jaclyn.
Just then, Nemo appears in the lift. Nemo is the pet Persian cat of Khai
(Khairul Nizam Wahi), the second placer of AF’s first season.
Nemo is a magical cat and he can teleport any MI, AI or AF member to any destination.
One of the MI finalists strokes Nemo.
A smoky hall appears in front of the 10 MI finalists. Someone who looks like Vince Chong appears and says he is Freddie Mercury.
“Hi! I’m Freddie,” he says.
“You look like Vince. You must be joking,” says Jaclyn.
“Tell me something that we don’t know,” says Victor.
Freddie says: “I’m a Persian from Bombay, India, and I’m Firdun Bulsara.”
Freddie goes on to perform his most famous song “I Want To Break Free”.
Later, Freddie is joined by someone who looks like Zahid Baharuddin and says he is Richie Valens.
“I don’t believe you,” says Andrew.
“Could you show us something we don’t know?” asks Dina.
Richie says: “I’m Ricardo Valenzuela from Mexico, and I lived for 18 years.
Don McLean paid tribute to me in American Pie.”
Richie performs his less-known hit song Donna and impresses the 10 MI
finalists.

Another stranger appears, looking almost like Azizi Mohamad. He says he is John Denver.
Vick asks: “Were you born in Denver?”
John replies: “I’m from Roswell, the place where aliens were sighted. My real name is Henry John Deutschendorf Jr and I visited Kuala Lumpur in the 1990s.”
John performs one of his lesser known hits The New Land. He tells them that the song was written for the American TV series of the same name which starred a very young Kurt Russell.
Along comes a Khai look-alike who says he is Leslie Cheung.
“You gotta be joking, Mr Leslie wannabe!” says Nikki.
Leslie says: “I’ll prove it to you that I’m the real Leslie!”
Leslie sings Sleepless Nights and Stand Up in flawless Cantonese.
A stranger who resembles Kelly Clarkson appears, and says she is Patsy Cline.
“If you are the real Cline, tell us something we don’t know,” says Jaclyn.
“Jim Reeves and I met the same tragic fate,” says Cline.
Another stranger who resembles Clay Aiken appears and says: “Yeah, we did.
I’m the real Jim Reeves”.

Within minutes, a Ruben Studdard look-alike appears and says he is Fat Larry James.
“Are you the man who sang Zoom?” asks Andrew.
“That’s me. I also collaborated with the Delphonics in the 1970s,” says
Larry.
A Justin Guarini look-alike appears and says he is Peter Tosh.
“You must be Bob Marley’s friend,” says Dina.
“Yup. That’s me. An Englishman in New York,” says Tosh.
In comes a Fantasia Barrino look-alike who says she is Minnie Ripperton.
“You are Minnie of Loving You fame?” asks Jaclyn. “Please show us!”
Ripperton belts out her haunting hit song and convinces the 10 MI finalists
that she is real.
In comes a Nicole McKibbin look-alike who says she is Tammy Wynette.
When asked to perform Stand By Your Man, she does so with gusto.
Wynette is joined by a Jasmine Trias look-alike who says she is Selena
Quintanilla.
“Are you the same Selena who was portrayed by J Lo?” asks Nikki.
Selena performs her famous hit Dreaming Of You flawlessly and powerfully. The 10 MI finalists are convinced that she is real.
In comes a stranger who resembles Diana DeGarmo but says she is Dusty Springfield.
“Are you the same Dusty who did the song Windmills Of Your Mind from the Thomas Crown Affair starring Pierce Brosnan?” asks Rydee.
“No, it starred Steve McQueen,” Dusty replies.

A Kimberley Locke look-alike appears and says she is Umm Kalthum, the late Egyptian entertainer.
Vick asks: “Could you prove it? I’m sure you know Arabic.”
Kalthum belts out a song in Arabic and impresses the MI finalists.
Along comes a Linda Nanuwil look-alike who says she is former Miss India
Persis Khambatta.
“Are you the same Persis from Star Trek The Motion Picture?” asks Jaclyn.
“Yes, and I starred with Richard Dean Anderson in MacGyver as his Afghan friend,” replies Persis.
Finally, an Adam Mohd Saman look-alike comes and says he is Haing S Ngor of the Killing Fields.
Rydee asks him to prove it by saying a famous line from his award-winning movie.
Ngor says: “Mercedes number one!”
On behalf of the MI finalists, Jaclyn thanks the 15 departed entertainers and says that it was great to meet them.
“How on Earth did you get here?” asks Jaclyn.
Freddie says: “We love to hang around in high towers. They are the Stairways To Heaven.”
Richie says: “I got an important announcement to make. We are not who we seem.”

Andrew asks: “Then, who are you?”
Richie says: “We are predators from V!”
The spirits rip off their human skins and reveal their slimy, ugly interiors.
They leap through the smoke curtain towards the 10 MI finalists.
“Help! Help!” scream the 10 finalists.
Within seconds, electricity is restored inside the lift. The door opens and
the 10 finalists are greeted by Vince and the IF members.
“Why are you so scared? You must have had a bad dream,” says Vince.
Jaclyn says: “We did. We did. We dreamt that you were all the predators from V.”
Vince replies: “Well, all of us are aliens in one way or another.”
Jaclyn embraces Vince tightly. “Darling! It’s so good to be in the real world,” she says.

The MI finalists and the IF members take a walk around the observation deck.
Vince tells Jaclyn: “I have a confession to make. This place is not what it
seems.”
Jaclyn asks: “Then, what is it, Vince?”
Zahid, Ruben and Clay tell the 10 MI finalists that they are not in the KL
Tower, but a mock KL Tower in a studio in Hollywood.
Jaclyn says: “We all entered the real KL Tower!”
Vince explains that while they entered the real KL Tower, one of them stroked Nemo and wished that they arrived at the same destination as the IF members.
“I was the one who stroked Nemo,” says Jaclyn.
Khai says that as soon as Jaclyn stroked Nemo, the MI finalists automatically re-emerged in a lift in the studio.
Zahid shows the MI finalists that the mock KL Tower observation deck is
really a circular, ground level cabin within the studio and it is surrounded
by cameras projecting views of KL from the real tower.
He says: “Ruben and Clay arranged this. It is the work of their friend, the
famous film-maker M. Night Shyamalan.”
Just then, Ruben and Clay introduce Shyamalan to the 10 MI finalists.
“Nice to meet you. May one of you become a World Idol soon,” he says.
Vince tells Jaclyn: “Sorry, folks. We pulled a fast one on you.”
Jaclyn replies: “Nothing wrong, Vince. It was really entertaining, really.
But there is something I must give you.”
Jaclyn takes Vince aside and when they are standing at a corner, she pulls out a bottle of Impulse perfume from her handbag and sprays it all over Vince’s neck and body.
Jaclyn takes Vince’s hand and brings him back to the crowd.
She says: “Hey, folks. Kotex spokesman Vince is now the new spokesman for Impulse women’s perfume.”
Vince smiles and shrugs his shoulders. He realises that his friend has
punished him sexily for the expensive practical joke.

In Zahid’s bedroom, Zahid introduces Clay, Ruben, Justin, Dina and Andrew to some of his orange teddy bears.
He says that he recently launched a range of orange bears, taking a cue from Ruben’s velvet brown teddy bears.
One of the first orange bears Zahid gave out went to his friend, Joe, an entertainment writer who supported him to win Akademi Fantasia season two.
“What coloured bears would you launch if you were me, Dina and Andrew?” asks Zahid.
“Brown,” replies Dina. “Brown, too,” replies Andrew.
Ruben says: “I see you prefer brown. Are you both chocolate fans?”
Andrew and Dina reply in the positive.
Dina says: “Nice meeting you, Zahid. Can I hug you?”
Zahid says: “OK!”
When Dina hugs Zahid, he complains, “Ouch! That was painful.”
”No, I’m sure it’s not,” says Dina, who hugs Zahid again.

In Azizi’s private getaway in Tioman Island (Pulau Tioman), he treats Victor, Vick, Zamil, Saipul and Fahmy to a meal of butterscotch ice-cream.
Azizi calls himself the butterscotch-haired rocker from Pahang state.
Nicole and Kimberley are with Azizi, too. But they decline to have ice-cream and opt for mineral water instead.

Saipul receives a handphone call.
"Saipul, sayang. Apa khabar. Ini kak Nurul dari Kuching," says the caller.
She is none other than sweet Nurul Hamid, who won 8th place in Akademi Fantasia season 2.
Saipul says: "Saipul OK, kak. Saipul sedang cuti sama Azizi di Tioman. Bestnya!"
Nurul transfers her phone to her best friend, Farah Anuar, the AF 4th placer of season 2, who greets Saipul with her legendary Breep! Breep! ring tone.
"Hi, Saipul. Apa khabar? Hope U R enjoying yourself. But don't go overboard. Don't go too near Vick," says Farah.
Saipul tells Farah: "Your dearest Adam Mohamad Saman is enjoying himself in Georgia, the USA, in the bedroom of Diana DeGarmo."
Farah asks: "Is he with Nikki and Rydee?"
Saipul says: "Yes, he is in safe hands. Diana DeGarmo, Jasmine Trias, Nikki, Rydee and Khai are with him. And of course, Nemo."

In Diana’s bedroom, Nikki and Rydee tell Khai, Adam, Diana and Jasmine that they need not apologise for the Hollywood prank.
“We really enjoyed ourselves,” says Nikki.
Rydee adds, jokingly: “But Adam must pay. As a Sabahan Kadazan warrior, he should have stood up for our rights not to be tricked by non-Sabahans.”
Nikki and Rydee tickle Adam non-stop, until Diana tells them to cease doing so.
She tosses a pink colour kit to Nikki and Rydee.
Nikki says, jokingly: “Hey! I know what we can do. Let’s tattoo Adam with his favourite Sugar Bun bunny mascot.”
Nikki and Rydee strip Adam of his T-shirt and busy themselves drawing the mascot on Adam’s back and front.
Diana says, cheekily: “OK, we had enough fun for the day. Let’s remove the colour.”
Rydee tells Adam: "Darling, I'm so sorry I had to do this. Kak minta maaf, OK! (Elder sister apologises, OK!)"

Jasmine asks Khai: “Are you OK, Khai? How’s the press treating you back
home?”
Khai replies: “I’ve got used to those rumours.”
(FIY, Khai always shares his problems and worries with sweetie Jasmine, his US foster sister number one of sorts, while Diana is his second foster sister of sorts.
Diana is also Nemo's second owner of sorts, and she cares for the Persian puss better than Khai)
Jasmine says: “Don’t worry, brave Kahuna. If Zarina (Khai's alleged "old flame" and fellow Akademi contestant) and you feel down, I’m always here for both of you.”
Jasmine touches Khai’s cheeks and tells him that he has a bit of acne, and he needs the services of the “sexiest part-time beautician in Hawaii” (that's herself).
“Help!” screams Khai.
“Meow!” says Nemo.

In Vince’s bedroom, Vince smiles as he has an interesting conversation with Kelly, Fantasia, Linda and Jaclyn.
Jaclyn asks Vince how is Burn (Rueben) Thevandran, who finished 9th in AF season one.
"Burn sends his regards. He cannot make it today," says Vince.
"I'm so happy to meet U, Fantasia," says Jaclyn.
"Same here, Jac," says Fantasia.
Kelly asks Linda: "How's Mas Ghani, the Cocos Islander?"
Linda replies: "Sorry, she cannot make it tonight. She is on holiday with her kids, Fadzilah and Fadzil. Next time, Vince and I will get Burn and Mas to turn up."
Jaclyn asks: “Vince, why are you crying?”
Vince replies: “I’m not crying. I’ve never felt any better. Just that I’m
exhausted and stressed these days.”
Jaclyn tells Vince that he needs to rest. She takes Vince’s bottle of eye
drops on his table, and squirts a few drops of the liquid into his eyes.
Jaclyn, Linda, Kelly and Fantasia hold on to Vince and blow into his eyes.
Kelly quietly whispers that “now’s the time”.
“Help! You tricked me!” Vince screams.
Kelly replies: “It’s for your own good, Vince. I’m sure your sister, Vanessa, would agree.”
Vince says: “You struck a deal with her, I see”.
Kelly, Fantasia, Linda and Jaclyn smile at him.

Vince memberitahu Jaclyn: “I have a confession to make. This place is not what it seems.”
Jaclyn bertanya: “Then, what is it, Vince?”
Zahid, Ruben dan Clay berkata bahawa 10 finalis MI bukan berada dalam Menara KL tetapi dalam sebuah “Menara KL” tiruan di sebuah studio di Hollywood.

Jaclyn berkata: “We all entered the real KL Tower!”
Vince berkata bahawa sebaik sahaja mereka memasuki Menara KL yang sebenar, Jaclyn telah membelai Nemo dan meminta Nemo membawa finalis MI untuk berjumpa dengan member IF.

Khai berkata, pada masa itu member IF berada di studio, bukannya di Menara KL.Sebaik sahaja lif dibuka, mereka bukan lagi berada di Menara KL tetapi di sebuah studio di Hollywood.

Zahid menerangkan bahawa “Menara KL” tiruan itu adalah studio bulat yang terletak di tingkat bawah bangunan studio utama dan ia dikelilingi oleh kamera yang menayangkan pemandangan indah bandaraya Kuala Lumpur yang difilemkan dari tingkat observasi Menara KL yang sebenar.

Katanya: “Ruben dan Clay punya plan ni. Kawan mereka, direktor filem M. Night Shyamalan yang buat studio ni.”

Ruben dan Clay memperkenalkan Shyamalan kepada finalis MI.“Nice to meet you. May one of you become a World Idol soon,” katanya.

Vince berkata kepada Jaclyn: “Sorry, folks. We pulled a fast one on you.”

Katanya: “Hey, folks. Kotex spokesman Vince is now the new spokesman for Impulse women’s perfume.”

Vince tersenyum. Dia sedar bahawa kawannya telah menghukumnya dengan cara yang seksi kerana “lawak Hollywood” itu.

Di bilik tidurnya, Zahid memperkenalkan Clay, Ruben, Justin, Dina dan Andrew kepada beberapa ekor teddy bearnya yang berwarna oren.
Zahid berkata bahawa dia telah melancarkan teddy bear oren itu sebagai tanda terima kasih kepada penyokongnya.
Zahid mendapat ilham dari Ruben yang melancarkan teddy bear berwarna coklat untuk peminatnya.
Zahid telahpun menghadiahkan teddy bear oren yang pertamanya kepada Joe Lee, seorang penulis hiburan yang merupakan penyokong terkuatnya di Malaysia.

“Jika U ada teddy bear, apa warna yang U pilih?” tanya Zahid.
“Coklat,” jawab Dina dan Andrew.
Ruben berkata: “I see you prefer brown. Are you both chocolate fans?”
Andrew dan Dina menjawab “ya”.
Dina berkata: “Nice meeting you, Zahid. Can I hug you?”
Zahid berkata: “OK!”Apabila Dina memeluk Zahid, Zahid berkata: “Aduh! Sakitnya.”
”Mana ada sakit? Tipulah abang Zahid ni,” kata Dina. Dia memeluk Zahid buat kali kedua.

Di chalet Azizi di Pulau Tioman, Azizi memberikan ais krim berperisa butterscotch kepada Victor, Vick, Zamil, Saipul dan Fahmy.
Nicole dan Kimberley tidak memakan ais krim, dan sebaliknya meminum air mineral.

Saipul menerima panggilan HP.
“Saipul, sayang. Apa khabar. Ini kak Nurul dari Kuching,” kata pemanggil.
Rupa-rupanya, pemanggil itu ialah Nurul Hamid, pemenang tempat ke-8 AF2, yang juga kakak angkat Saipul.
Saipul menjawab: “Saipul OK, kak. Saipul sedang cuti sama Azizi di Tioman. Bestnya!”
Nurul memberikan HPnya kepada kawan karibnya, Farah Anuar, pemenang tempat ke-4 AF2. Farah membunyikan HP itu dengan nada Breep! Breep! iaitu “trade mark” Farah.

“Hi, Saipul. Apa khabar? Harap U sihat dan gembira selalu. Tapi jangan over. Jangan dekat sangat dengan Vick,” kata Farah.
Saipul berkata kepada Farah: "U punya kawan, Adam, sedang bercuti di Georgia, USA, di bilik tidur Diana DeGarmo.”
Farah bertanya: “Adakah Adam bersama Rydee dan Nikki?”
Saipul menjawab: “Ya. Dia juga ditemani oleh Diana DeGarmo, Jasmine Trias dan Khai. Dan juga Nemo.”

Di bilik tidur Diana, Nikki dan Rydee berkata bahawa member-member MI tak perlu minta maaf kerana “lawak Hollywood” mereka.
“We really enjoyed ourselves,” kata Nikki.
Rydee (kakak angkat Adam) berkata secara lawak: “Adam mesti didenda. Sebagai pahlawan Kadazan, dia tak harus berdiam diri ketika kakaknya diusik oleh member IF.”

Nikki dan Rydee mencubit Adam tanpa henti. Diana menyuruh mereka berhenti.
Diana membuang sebotol warna merah jambu ke arah Nikki.
Nikki berkata secara lawak: “Hey! I know what we can do. Let’s tattoo Adam with his favourite Sugar Bun bunny mascot.”
Nikki dan Rydee membuka T-shirt Adam dan melukis kartun arnab Sugar Bun di atas bahagian depan dan belakang badan Adam.
Diana berkata secara lawak: “OK, we had enough fun for the day. Let’s remove the colour.”
Rydee memberitahu Adam: “I’m so sorry I had to do this, sayang. Kak minta maaf, OK!”

Jasmine bertanya kepada Khai: “Are you OK, Khai? How’s the press treating you back home?”
Khai menjawab: “Saya sudah biasa dengan gosip tu, kak.”
(Khai sentiasa membincangkan masalahnya dengan Jasmine)
Jasmine berkata: “Don’t worry, brave Kahuna. If Zarina and you feel down, I’m always here for both of you.”
Jasmine menyentuh muka Khai dan memberitahunya bahawa dia ada sedikit masalah “acne” dan perlu dirawat oleh “jurusolek sambilan terseksi di Hawaii” (Jasmine sendiri lah!).
“Tolong!” teriak Khai.
“Meow!” kata Nemo.

Di bilik tidur Vince, Vince tersenyum lebar ketika berbual dengan Kelly, Fantasia, Linda dan Jaclyn.
Jaclyn bertanya kepada Vince, macam mana dengan Burn (Rueben) Thevandran, pemenang tempat ke-9 AF1.
“Burn sends his regards. He cannot make it today,” kata Vince.
“I’m so happy to meet U, Fantasia,” kata Jaclyn.
“Same here, Jac,” kata Fantasia.
Kelly bertanya kepada Linda: “How’s Mas Ghani, the Cocos Islander?”
Linda menjawab: “Sorry, she cannot make it tonight. She is on holiday with her kids, Fadzilah and Fadzil. Next time, Vince and I will get Burn and Mas to turn up.”
Jaclyn bertanya: “Vince, why are you crying?”
Vince menjawab: “I’m not crying. I’ve never felt any better. Just that I’m exhausted and stressed these days.”
Jaclyn berkata Vince perlu berehat. Dia mengambil losyen mata Vince di atas meja dan menitiskannya ke dalam mata Vince.
Jaclyn, Linda, Kelly dan Fantasia memegang Vince dan mengeringkan matanya dengan mulut mereka.
Secara diam, Kelly memberikan satu isyarat kepada Fantasia, Jaclyn dan Linda.
“Help! You tricked me!” teriak Vince.
Kelly berkata: “It’s for your own good, Vince. I’m sure your sister, Vanessa, would agree.”
Vince berkata: “You struck a deal with her, I see”.
Kelly, Fantasia, Linda dan Jaclyn tersenyum.
