The World Cup may well be over and we know Spain has been crowned the new champions. But do you know who has been crowned the most beautiful player in the World Cup? Mind you beautiful in this case does not imply that this player play beautiful game, but beautiful as in the most good looking!

Well according to 200,000 members who have voted at dating site,  BeautifulPeople.com, 2010 World Cup 10 most beautiful players are as follows:

10. Keisuke Honda – Japan

9. Didier Drogba – Ivory Coast

8. Cristiano Ronaldo – Portugal

7. Kaka – Brazil

6. Edinson Cavani – Uruguay

5. Thierry Henry – France

4. Landon Donovan – USA

3. David Villa -Spain

2. Fernando Torres – Spain

1. Fabio Cannavaro – Italy

I guess I have to agree with Cannavaro as the most beautiful player because he’s just that good looking! But wonder who has been voted the ugliest player?

It’s Wayne Rooney who coincidentally has been mercilessly compared to Shrek in terms of looks!

The managing director of BeautifulPeople.com even has the cheek to say that the English players had very beautiful wives and girlfriends, but this was surely due to their bank accounts which certainly made them a lot more attractive. Ouch!


Malaysia celebrated Earth Hour last night at 8.30pm until 9.30 pm. Wonder how buildings in cities around the world look like during Earth Hour? Here’s some of my favourites that I have compiled from Flickr.:

IKEA’s genius advertising campaign

Posted by intan On March - 22 - 20103 COMMENTS


Look at the pic above and guess where is the location?

No, it’s not actually a furniture showroom or IKEA showroom for that matter..

It is actually located at a Paris subway station!

Yup, IKEA has come out with an out of box idea to promote their products. Instead of asking people to come by to their showroom, they come to the people instead!

So now, you can wait for your subway train to come while lounging around on IKEA’s sofa.

Isn’t that one of the coolest idea or what? Wonder when IKEA Malaysia will do the same. I certainly won’t mind waiting for LRT when I have IKEA’s sofa to comfort me by.

All pics are from here.

Malaysian artistes Hollywood look-a-likes

Posted by intan On March - 16 - 2010ADD COMMENTS


Some Malaysian artistes really do resemble their Hollywood and Bollywood counterparts. Coincidence or they just totally copy the look? Here’s for you to decide:

1. Zahnita Wilson vs Catherine Zeta Jones

Same smile and a little bit of resemblance. They don’t exactly look identical, but they can pass as sisters.

2. Chaka Khan vs Sharifah Aini

Both have powerful voices and the same bee hives hair. I’d say Sharifah Aini looks fairer compared to Chaka Khan and maybe the above pic looks like they are identical because of lighting in Chaka Khan’s part?

3. Amy Mastura vs Coco Lee

Oh I think both of them looks kinda similar except when Coco Lee starts doing her hair all weird Hong Kong diva style

4. Siti Nurhaliza vs Katie Holmes

Maybe it’s their same length of hair and pose that make the resemblance obvious, but try putting one of those pic of Dato’ Siti with her headgear and Katie Holmes in her new haircut. Bet they won’t resemble each other anymore.

5. Dayang Nurfaizah vs Beyonce

I think Dayang Nurfaizah quite like the idea of comparing her with Beyonce because she usually will belt out Beyonce’s songs in her performance. They look a little bit similar, but voice wise, Beyonce is of course way beyond Dayang.

6. Zizie Ezzette vs Renee Zelwegger

My goodness, they really do look a like! Bung Mokhtar’s wife can be in Bridget Jones’ Diary, Malaysian version? I sure think so!

7. Jeslina Hashim vs Britney Spears

Jeslina Hashim sure resemble Britney pre-pubescent face. Honestly, this Britney pic reminds me how does Britney originally look like which is certainly wholesome and sweet! Too bad she looks far from sweet nowadays.

5 ugliest cakes ever made

Posted by intan On March - 3 - 20101 COMMENT

Cakes are supposed to look yummy and delicious right? But definitely not the 10 below cakes. These are not only ugly, but downright creepy too! I definitely would not want to eat those.

1. The squid cake

2. The I’m-sorry-I-just-murdered-you cake

3. The “Wedding” cake

4. The eyeball cake decorated with yummy worms

5. And finally, the dead bird cake.

Honestly, is there anyone depressive enough to eat those cakes? Ewww.
