Mawi Learns To Brush Off Gossip

Pop phenomenon Asmawi (Mawi) Ani of Akademi Fantasia 3 has learnt to brush aside rumours that he is romantically linked with two actresses from his home state, Johor.

The duo are young stars Diana Rafar and Norasyikin Rahmat. Their elder sisters are singers Linda Rafar and Norain Rahmat, former members of popular all-girl pop group Elite.

Elite was the brainchild of Malaysia's most successful brothers in pop, Norman, Yusry and Edry Halim of KRU, the mentors of Akademi Fantasia 2's Adam Mat Saman.

Mawi says that as an entertainer, one has to be prepared for nonsensical stories about one's private life.

Some of his close friends advise him to take legal action against rumour mongers, but he tells them that it is pointless to do so.

"I've learnt to laugh off such stories. The latest is that my family is getting me engaged to a student from Perak," he said.

"Frankly, I don't know of this university student. I have several female friends from Perak and they are all my fellow Akademi Fantasia singers.

"One of them is Salima Habibi of Akademi Fantasia 4," he said.

Mawi, who ended his engagement with fiancee Nordiana Naim, also from Johor, in July, says they still remain friends, and he wishes her all the best in her new career as a television presenter.


BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Mawi Tidak Peduli Gosip Mengenai Dirinya

Fenomena pop Asmawi (Mawi) Ani dari Akademi Fantasia 3 tidak peduli khabar angin yang mengatakan dia bercinta dengan 2 orang aktres dari negeri asalnya, Johor.

Aktres itu ialah Diana Rafar dan Norasyikin Rahmat. Kakak mereka ialah penyanyi Linda Rafar dan Norain Rahmat, bekas ahli kumpulan pop wanita Elite.

Elite diasaskan oleh kumpulan penyanyi lelaki adik-beradik nombor satu Malaysia - Norman, Yusry dan Edry Halim atau KRU, iaitu mentor naib juara kedua Akademi Fantasia 2 Adam Mat Saman.

Mawi berkata sebagai orang seni, dia kena bersedia menghadapi fitnah dan gosip liar mengenai kehidupan peribadinya.

Beberapa orang kawan rapat Mawi menasihatinya supaya menyaman tukang fitnah dan gosip, tetapi Mawi berkata tindakan sebegini tidak akan mendatangkan hasil yang baik.

"Saya sedar adalah lebih baik untuk melupakan cerita karut macam ni. Cerita karut terbaru mengatakan keluarga saya mahu saya kahwin dengan seorang pelajar dari Perak," katanya.

"Saya tak kenal pelajar universiti dari Perak. Saya ada beberapa kawan wanita dari Perak tapi mereka adalah rakan saya di kalangan penyanyi Akademi Fantasia.

"Salima Habibi dari Akademi Fantasia 4 ialah seorang daripada kawan saya ni," katanya.

Mawi, telah memutuskan pertunangannya dengan Nordiana Naim, dari Johor, pada bulan Julai yang lalu,

Mereka masih lagi berkawan, dan Mawi mendoakan kejayaan Nordiana dalam karier barunya sebagai hos rancangan televisyen.
