Intensive dance lessons on Thurs & Fri night!

They were taught the twist-and-slide chinese dance move.
The lights in the dance room went off right on the dot at 11pm as usual, as it was set on timer by the hall. However, the night was still young. The dance lesson shifted onto the comm hall and continued as Gary made use of every moment to teach each couple their individual stunt.
Hong Zhi and Guang Yao taking a break...
On Friday Night, it was dance training again!
As usual, we were unable to start promtly at 9pm due to the inconsideration of a group of people using the dance room before us.
But anyway, our contestants were very coorperative and managed to settle down quickly before they began the warm-up exercises.
Guang Yao and his trademark smile. Ever-ready before the camera. LOL!
And it was girl power for the night! Tim had to attend lessons so Jade, Hwee Leng & I were put in charged.
Dance, dance and more dance! The only way to perfect their moves was to get the contestants to repeat the whole dance again and again.
It takes two to Tango...
Exactly 1 more week to SHANGHAI NIGHT!
I'm sure all of you are excited and are looking forward to seeing their moves. Hang in there my dear contestants!
I'm sure all of your hard work are going to pay off well! =D

They started out practising the catwalk formations and poses which they learnt at SHINE.
All the guys were gentlemanly and were able to support their ladies in the dance coordination.
Eventually, Gary started to teach the contestants to fly...
He demonstrated the move on Pui Fun.. Nice one!!!
Oh gosh! Ian caught in the act while flirting with Ying Qing. How could he???
Relax.. it's all part of the show.. ?
Interested to find out more about what's actually going on with all the flirting and stunts etc? Be sure to join us at Hall 8 Dinner & Dance'08 at Orchid Country Club on the 30th August ok?
That's all for now before training resumes next week... Have a nice weekend everyone! ^^

Clothes-fitting at STAGE & Photoshoot at Clark Quay!

We went down to STAGE at Far East Plaza. STAGE is a franchise outlet under the branded apparel by Luo Zhi Xiang and it is the official sponsor for the Hall 8's DnD pageant's casual wear.
Under the friendly assisstance of Jay (one of the bosses), the contestants were dressed up in cute couple street wear. It was very nice of STAGE to sponsor us accessories too, with their very beautiful caps and bling-blings.
After lunch, we headed over to Clark Quay for their outdoor photoshoot. It was raining quite heavily before but fortunately, the rain had subsided by the time we reached Clark quay and very soon, it was sun after rain!
The make-up artistes got to work and began doing the make-up for the contestants, as well as their hairdo.
There were a total of 5 photographers this year, thanks to friends of friend. I have below some of the behind-the-scene shots which you all might like to know more about, even though they're not pro-shots.
First up is F1 Joanne...
and her partner M1 Wee Kiat..
M2 Ian, with the classic back-alley shot..
and couple shot with F2 Han Bin...
The cutest couple... M3 Hazzely and F3 Ying Qing
F4 Pei Shan & M4 Chuan Kai... getting into the mood for some natural shots.
Pretty!!!
Last but not least, our tallest couple...
F5 Hong Zhi & M5 Guang Yao
with 深情的眼神...
It had been a long and tiring day for all the contestants, photographers, make-up artiste, seniors and all others who came to support. But I'm sure it must have been a fun and memorable experience for all contestants.
We ended the day with a group shot. (some seniors are not in the pic)
To all the seniors who came to support and made this photoshoot an enjoyable one...
U guys rocks!
