Ika Rahim Vows To Prove Critics Wrong

Lovely Ika Rahim admits that she is not a good singer, but she is prepared to improve her vocal talent gradually.

Mila Jirin’s fellow George Town native is not bothered with the “morons” who call her names and insult her, and vows to prove them wrong.

“While I did not perform well as a student in Akademi Fantasia 6, it is not the end of my journey into entertainment. I will continue taking lessons from (AF6 principal) Ramli MS and his team of vocal and performance coaches, and I will also try to excel in hosting, DJing and acting,” she said.

While Ika adores Mila and her close pal Dafi Ismail (whom she would love to kiss!), she also has great respect for Astro TV’s radio station Era FM’s DJ Nana Mahazan.

Nana was cursed and lampooned by nasty Akademi Fantasia 1 (AF1) followers back in 2003 because she was a weak performer, but she proved critics wrong by working hard to become a successful DJ with Era FM.

“Nana met me recently, and she was very encouraging. She told me that I ought to prove my critics wrong, just as she did,” she said.

Ika spent several months last year undergoing National Service training.

The semi-military National Service scheme makes students undergo military training and a spartan lifestyle, and exposes them to community service.

Ika also admires Kaer Azami, who is currently studying graphic design in Indonesia. She admits being “so in love” with his hit song Izin Ku Pergi (Let Me Go).

Kaer initially studied architecture at a local university, but later switched courses to pursue a graphic design degree. He initially chose to study Down Under, but later decided to enter an Indonesian university.

Kaer is expected to return to Kuala Lumpur at the end of the year.

Ika congratulates Dafi and Mila for winning the Most Popular Newcomer (Male and Female) awards at the recent Berita Harian Popular Stars Awards 2007 held in Genting Highlands, Bentong, Pahang.

Berita Harian is a newspaper published by The New Straits Times.

Vince Chong and Jaclyn Victor won the Most Popular Newcomer (Male and Female) awards at the 2004 awards.

Ika also congratulates Kaer for winning Best Ballad (Izin Ku Pergi) at the Anugerah Juara Lagu (TV3 Charts Awards) early this year.

The TV3 Charts Awards is produced by Malaysia’s oldest private TV station, TV3, a sister company of the New Straits Times.

She also wishes Akademi Fantasia’s Akma Abdullah, Idayu Yaakob, Aidil Zamri, Faizal Ramly, Diddy Muhid, Farhan Azizan, Zila Seeron, Zana Hanizan, Heliza Helmi, Diya Kholid, Dekna Ahmad, Aizat Amdan, Aswad Jaafar, Shawal Ruslan and Shafiq Ramadzan, Malaysian Idol’s Awal Ashaari, Sufiah Noor, Farah Asyikin Zulkifli, Xerra Zaimi, Nita Hamzah and Ashvin Nair, and One In A Million’s Faizal Tahir, Iz Sulaini, Shila Amir, Tiara Hassan and Rina Azahar all the best in their singing and acting careers.

Ika Rahim Mahu Buktikan Dirinya Sebagai Artis

Si comel jelita Ika Rahim mengaku bukan penyanyi yang baik, tetapi dia berazam untuk memperbaiki kelemahan nyanyiannya secara beransur-ansur.

Rakan sekampung Mila Jirin dari George Town ini tidak kisah dengan cacian peminat kurang ajar yang memanggilnya “bimbo dan binatang”.

Malah, dia berazam untuk membuktikan dirinya sebagai artis yang kredibel.

“Saya mengaku tidak membuat persembahan yang baik di Akademi Fantasia 6. Tetapi ini tidak akan menghalang perjalanan saya dalam dunia seni.

“Saya akan tetap belajar memperbaiki mutu nyanyian dengan bimbingan (pengetua AF6) Ramli MS serta guru-guru AF yang lain. Saya juga akan menceburkan diri dalam bidang hos TV, DJ dan lakonan,” katanya.

Walaupun Ika amat meminati Mila dan rakan karibnya Dafi Ismail (Ika mahu muah Dafi!), dia juga amat menyayangi DJ Era FM, Nana Mahazan.

Nana pernah dicaci-maki oleh peminat kurang ajar Akademi Fantasia 1 (AF1) di tahun 2003 kerana nyanyiannya yang tidak baik, tetapi kini Nana amat dihormati sebagai DJ popular Era FM.

“Saya baru berjumpa dengan Kak Nana, dan beliau amat menyokong dan bersimpati dengan saya. Katanya, saya kena buktikan keseriusan dalam bidang seni, dengan mengambil iktibar dari pengalamannya,” katanya.

Ika telah menjalani Program Latihan Khidmat Negara selama beberapa bulan tahun lalu.

Program separa militer itu membuatkan pelajar sekolah menengah menjalani latihan berbentuk militer dan kehidupan markas tentera serta melatih mereka dalam bidang khidmat masyarakat.

Ika turut menghormati Kaer Azami, yang kini belajar bidang reka cipta grafik di Indonesia. Ika amat menyukai lagu hit Kaer berjudul Izin Ku Pergi.

Kaer pada mulanya belajar bidang arkitek di universiti tempatan, tetapi kemudian bertukar ke bidang reka cipta grafik. Dia mengambil keputusan belajar di Indonesia walaupun pada mulanya merancang belajar di Australia.

Kaer dijangka kembali ke Kuala Lumpur di hujung tahun ini.

Ika mengucapkan tahniah kepada Dafi dan Mila yang baru memenangi anugerah Artis Baru Lelaki dan Wanita Popular di Anugerah Bintang Popular Berita Harian 2007 yang diadakan di Genting Highlands, Bentong, Pahang.

Berita Harian ialah surat khabar terbitan The New Straits Times.

Vince Chong dan Jaclyn Victor memenangi Artis Baru Lelaki dan Wanita Popular di Anugerah Bintang Popular Berita Harian 2004.

Ika turut mengirim salam tahniah buat Kaer yang memenangi Lagu Balada Terbaik (Izin Ku Pergi) di Anugerah Juara Lagu TV3 awal tahun ini.

TV3 ialah stesen TV swasta Malaysia yang tertua dan juga syarikat yang bersaudara dengan The New Straits Times.

Ika turut mengirim salam maju jaya kepada bintang Akademi Fantasia Akma Abdullah, Idayu Yaakob, Aidil Zamri, Faizal Ramly, Diddy Muhid, Farhan Azizan, Zila Seeron, Zana Hanizan, Heliza Helmi, Diya Kholid, Dekna Ahmad, Aizat Amdan, Aswad Jaafar, Shawal Ruslan dan Shafiq Ramadzan, bintang Malaysian Idol Awal Ashaari, Sufiah Noor, Farah Asyikin Zulkifli, Xerra Zaimi, Nita Hamzah dan Ashvin Nair, dan bintang One In A Million Faizal Tahir, Iz Sulaini, Shila Amir, Tiara Hassan dan Rina Azahar dalam karier nyanyian dan lakonan mereka.

Dafi & Mila Fan Ika The Most Hated AF6 Contestant - Tragic!

Mila Jirin’s fellow Penang girl Ika Rahim could be going down in history as one of the most hated AF contestants ever.

She has been called, rightfully, tone-deaf for being a lousy singer in the weekly AF6 concerts.

But criticism of Ika has not stopped there, when it should.

Many followers of the show have cursed her, calling her an idiot and a bimbo, and even for her to be shot!

While it is true that Ika is not brainy and makes unwise decisions, it is evil to call her a bimbo, idiot and deserving of the firing squad or a lynching.

We are all human, and nobody who does not harm others deserves to be called such names.

Ika, Peminat Dafi & Mila Jadi Peserta AF Paling Dibenci - Tragis!

Rakan sekampung Mila Jirin di Pulau Pinang, Ika Rahim, berkemungkinan besar menjadi pelajar AF yang paling dibenci dalam sejarah rancangan realiti itu.

Ika dikritik, tepat sekali, sebagai peserta pekak ton dan gred F dalam konsert mingguan AF6.

Kritikan terhadap Ika sepatutnya berhenti di sini tetapi gadis Pulau Pinang itu dicaci dan dimaki habis-habisan sebagai “bimbo”, “murah” dan “haprak”.

Ramai juga peminat AF yang mahu “menembak” Ika!

Mungkin Ika tidak bijak dan tidak matang, tetapi amat kejam dan celaka untuk melaknat gadis manis kelahiran George Town itu.

Kita semua insan biasa dan tidak ada sesiapa yang harus dilaknat kecuali syaitan.

Akma’s My Big, Sexy Sister From Home - Yana

Lovely Yana Omar is happy to be part of the Akademi Fantasia (AF) family and is proud of her fellow Kuala Kangsar girl Akma Abdullah.

Yana finished 14th in AF6 while Akma finished 7th in AF3.

While Yana is not a sushi fan like Akma and hardly speaks Japanese, she thinks Akma is a brilliant, confident and versatile pop starlet.

“I love Akma. She’s my big, sexy sister from home,” she said.

On her favourite male senior, Yana said Kaer Azami was “the man”.

“He’s so romantic and sweet. I love his song Izin Ku Pergi (Let Me Go)

“Wish he told that to my hands!” she joked.

Yana also wishes her fellow AF seniors Mila Jirin, Dafi Ismail, Aizat Amdan, Zana Hanizan, Aswad Jaafar, Heliza Helmi, Faizal Ramly, Diddy Muhid, Aidil Zamri, Shawal Ruslan, Diya Kholid, Dekna Ahmad, Shafiq Ramadzan, Farhan Azizan, Zila Seeron, Nana Mahazan and Idayu Yaakob, Malaysian Idol’s Sufiah Noor, Nita Hamzah, Xerra Zaimi, Farah Asyikin Zulkifli, Ashvin Nair and Awal Ashaari, and One In A Million’s Alia Abu Hassan, Anny Shariff, Mimi Shamsuddin, Faizal Tahir, Iz Sulaini, Shila Amir Amzah, Rina Azahar and Tiara Hassan all the best in their careers.

Ayu, I See Great Things In Store For You - Adam Mat Saman

Kadazan-Dusun hip-hopper and heart-throb Adam Mat Saman thinks lovely Bajau pop princess Ayu Damit has a great career ahead of her.

Adam is delighted that Ayu has won One In A Million 2 (OIAM2) and is confident the new singer will be Sabah’s answer to his dear friend and acting mentor Ning Baizura some day.

Ning and Fauziah Ahmad Daud (Malaysia’s female Simon Cowell and Jodie Foster) are the judges of Akademi Fantasia 6 (AF6).

“Ayu is great. She’s the best new Sabahan to have emerged from a reality talent show and I pray that she will take good care of herself and strive for excellence,” he said.

Adam also congratulates Ning on her recent marriage and welcomes his own cousin Shone Majimbun and Shone’s fellow OIAM2 men Mark Lorin and Abraham Dungot into showbusiness.

Adam is also proud of his dear friend Nora Daud’s cousin Fiq Halim and considers him the greatest Kadazan-Dusun rock icon Sabah ever had.

Adam recently acted with his lovely cousin Noni Zainuddin of Akademi Fantasia 5 (AF5) in Astro romantic drama series Pria. He is happy to collaborate with her, and does not mind playing her romantic interest, and Nora’s, in future.

“Sabah has many gifted young men and women and I am happy that Malaysian television has given them a good chance to become stars.

“My advise to all of them is, work hard, be strong, be happy with what you are doing, and never forget your roots and fans,” he said.

Rude To Call Pretty Faces Bimbos - Superman Faizal

Handsome Terengganu Superman Faizal Tahir hopes fans of reality shows stop calling pretty contestants who do not give good weekly performances bimbos.

He says the term “bimbo” refers to materialistic women who lack talent, crave for the protection of men and demean the abilities of women.

“We must watch our words,” he says.

Akademi Fantasia 6 (AF6) contestants Ika Rahim, Yana Omar and Lufya Omar were recently derided as "bimbos" by some fans of the reality show.

One In A Million 1 (OIAM1) singers Anny Shariff, Mimi Shamsuddin and Alia Abu Hassan, and One In A Million 2 (OIAM2) singer Tiara Hassan also suffered similar insults in 2006 and 2007, respectively.

Katanya, label “bimbo” sebenarnya dikhaskan untuk wanita yang materialistik, berbakat cetek, bergantung kepada lelaki, dan merendahkan martabat kaum Hawa.

“Kita kena berhati-hati apabila melabelkan orang,” katanya.

Peserta Akademi Fantasia 6 (AF6) Ika Rahim, Yana Omar dan Lufya Omar baru-baru ini dikutuk dan disindir sebagai "bimbo" oleh sesetengah peminat rancangan itu.
