Congrats to TAUFIK BATISAH!!!

I was jumping, screaming, clapping...when they announced him as the winner. My votes were not wasted at all!
While watching the finals of Singapore Idol, my mobile kept beeping - comments from friends via calls and sms. It was non-stop until the results were announced.
Taufik Batisah, Maria Bachok's nephew and Hazrul Nizam's 2nd cousin. Talented family huh? The Singapore Idol journey wasn't easy for him. He was labelled as over confident, has an ego bigger than his voice, etc. And when he was selected to be in the final 30, he turned and looked at the judges and said "You won't regret this!" He definitely meant what he said.
At least, he's a better representative in the World Idol than the rocker ah beng, Sylvester.
With his versatility in singing all kinds of genre and that oh so...captivating, killer smile, he will be one popular guy.
After all those screams from me, my youngest brother, Haikal, said "Sekejap Hazrul Nizam, skarang Taufik...haiz. Takpelah kalau kak nani kawan dgn Taufik, boleh kawan dengan Hazrul Nizam." That;s my brother for you!
