You got something against Hong Kong Ricky Martin?

i pity him.

**the fact that the only reason why people liked you is because they want to see you who already looks soo nerdy/geek/whateveryoucallit do more stupid stuffs and make a more fool out of yourself.**

if i were in his shoes and i knew this fact,i'd just CRY! it's soo....emotionally stabbing.....

and i used to know a person just like him. willing to do anything to just get some fame.
**no idea where on earth he is now**


ON-TOPIC : i think if you wanted to sing japanese in a country like Malaysia it would be a wild shot. not many people will take interest and you definitely won't hit off bigtime. the only way you can make it big is to start off small, and work your way up. then attract some 'talent-scout' who has contacts in japan. then go to japan and launch an album and be freaking famous. then come back to malaysia to do a promo tour.by that time you will definitely be known!!!!

sounds funky, but heck,it will work!

Yes, he sucks. No talent whatsoever.

I'm sorry if you disagree.

Now that this cat is out of the bag... :hehe: Um, being talentless but humble and having the courage to get up and sing is why people love him. I've seen all of his performances on TV. After all this time, his timing for so many lines is still off, aside from the voice and....the dancing! :mrgreen: I get a kick out of the kid though, seriously. But it's because he's bad. Plus, I mean, to be honest...it'll sound mean, but the kid is not a looker. :sweat: And, on top of that, he wears AC Slater shirts (any watchers of Saved By The Bell...picture Slater's short-sleeved blouses, LOL :hehe:). But, people like dork-types sometimes....especially humble ones.

With that mentality, think of the following that wouldn't have made it in the music business:

- Tiny Tim
- Bob Dylan
- Lou Reed (saw him last night on Letterman -- ugh!!! :P )
- Elvis Costello
- Don Ho

Notice the trend? I think men can get away with singing really bad. I don't think women can get away with the same thing.

heheh oniichan, u couldve just highlight it with ur mouse :beaten:

for my opinion, i guess its better if u become a really good singer in ur country first, then make a different language versions of ur favorite song, then hope for a miracle that it would crossover to a different country/international.. and that u have good connections/hook ups with other people..etc.

Yes, he sucks. No talent whatsoever.

i kinda agree, but its bec. i never like him in the first place, even when he was in menudo :sweat: but dont say that to my sister, shes gonna beat u up :beaten:

speaking of william hung, hes just popular now, will die down later for good.

You've got a point. But this Hung guy has gone beyond those guys... He's basically a train wreck that people can't stop looking at and talking about... Bleah. :shakehead:

i think its just pity for hung.. i mean i remember the other #10 contestant (original ai..sorry i forgot his name) made it just cuz he had deaf parents.. but in a way.. he could really sing, he just needs to work on a lil bit with his body language.

Hung can't sing! And he can't dance! In fact, he should just walk around with a paper bag on his head.
Did you see those two chiclets that he calls teeth?

No, actually I agree with you 500%. I was just looking for an excuse to use the phrase "Hong Kong Ricky Martin."

If it were up to me, he would be thrown off a tall building. Let's see him "sing" his way out of that one.

Then we cool! :D

And I agree with him being thrown off a building! What a waste of money to endorse this guy, huh?! :shakehead:

HAHAHA amen to that! I really can't stand that guy. I dunno, I just don't find him that funny. But he is REALLY ugly though

VERY UGLY!!!!!!

AHAHAHA me and my cousin were talking about him today too. He goes to Berkeley and they actually sort of know each other. From what he says, Hung was always sort of a loser. Doesn't socialize well with people. The whole album them if anything has got him more arrogant than ever. He said a lot of people come by to take pics with him but that's it. No real friends. Sits by himself in the cafeteria too.

Man, you guys are cold....

The brother is a stereotypical engineering geek... I'd really feel sorry for the guy, but this whole stunt and record contract crap made me lose sympathy for the him... And it pisses me that American Idol and that freakin' record company would exploit this guy... There's blame all around, if you ask me.

Yea, being a loner can't really be fun. He lacks social skills but at least he knows how to get his name across america. Never really watched american idol so I can care less about the show. I've been completely converted to j-pop and c-pop, lol

He sits by himself in the cafeteria.
He only has an album because some dumb ass thought that it would be a good gimmick.
The only people who talk to him are those idiots who want his autograph.

Do you see a pattern here?!

The dude is a freakin' joke and a waste of time.

People who are loners deserve to be loners. They bring it upon themselves. Why? Because they have no self esteem. Get some balls and a back bone people! I don't care if your dad molested you!

To William... lose those chiclets and get some less noticable dentures. (Especially in the front teeth region, if you know what I mean)
American Idol.... no fault to your company whatsoever. A crappy guy comes along and just goes "all balls" making an ass of himself. You tell him he sucks, but a stupid record company picks him up a month later.
To the stupid record company.....spend your money on some REAL talent and not a joke.
To those chicks who dig William...you must be ugly and not able to get any dates of your own.
To the dudes who idolize William...you must be some pathetic muthas who are uglier than William. Damn, I'll pay for your plastic surgery if you don't do it for yourself.

AHAHAHAHA yet more reasons added to my list as to why I abandoned American music :D
