The Biggest Fear Is The Waiting - Jac & Resh

The biggest fear before every singing contest is the waiting, say Malaysian Idol Jaclyn Victor and soul star Reshmonu.

The duo who are in the running for the title of Ikon Malaysia (Malaysian Icon) in the Ikon Malaysia singing contest of Astro TV, calm themselves by praying before every performance.

"It is natural to be afraid. But prayer helps," says Jac.

"I just think positively and go on stage," says Resh.

The duo are honoured to be among the new Malaysian singers picked for the contest. They are both semi-finalists.

The group and solo winners of Ikon Malaysia will compete against their Indonesian and Philippine counterparts in the Ikon ASEAN contest in August.

Jac and Resh see the regional Ikon contests as an opportunity to meet and learn from the best pop stars of their neighbouring nations.

Penantian Adalah Perkara Paling Menakutkan - Jac & Resh

Penantian sebelum giliran adalah perkara paling ditakuti oleh Malaysian Idol pertama Jaclyn Victor dan putera soul negara Reshmonu di setiap pertandingan nyanyian.

Mereka berdua yang menjadi semi-finalis pertandingan nyanyian Astro TV Ikon Malaysia sentiasa berdoa sebelum setiap persembahan pentas.

"Takut ialah perkara natural. Doa amat membantu," kata Jac.

"Saya membuatkan diri berfikiran positif sebelum naik pentas," kata Resh.

Mereka berdua amat gembira diberi peluang bertanding dalam Ikon Malaysia walaupun agar baru dalam dunia seni.

Pemenang solo dan kumpulan Ikon Malaysia akan bersaing dengan rakan mereka dari Ikon Indonesia dan Ikon Filipina di pertandingan Ikon ASEAN bulan depan.

Jac dan Resh berpendapat Ikon ASEAN memberi ruang untuk mereka berkenalan dengan penyanyi hebat negara jiran serta belajar dari mereka.
