Which fruit do you prefer?

[Chompoo as a mangosteen a few days ago]

Interesting concept, have 5 beautiful female celebrities dress up as fruits.

We have bikini fashion model “Blue” Erika Ployamporn in the sour and sweet longkong fruit outfit, Chompoo Araya as a mangosteen or “mungkoot” fruit, Ice Apissada showing off her midriff as a mangoe, and Ch7′s Sammie Pantitha as a durian. Lastly, Natalie Davis of Ch3 is the deliciously sweet rambutan fruit. Overall, I like Sammie’s fruit outfit the best, it had form and excellent detail.

The fruit girls lined up. I would totally wear their fruit costumes for Halloween.

Chompoo and Tye’s lakorn, will it air?

Yuwadee and Prawit

It is not looking good for Chompoo Araya and Tye Nattapol’s first lakorn together “Plerng Prai (Spirit Blaze)”, produced by Yuma99 productions. Yuwadee Thaihiran head of Yuma productions has left Ch3 out of resentment, 3 of her lakorn ideas have been turned down by the elders of Ch3. They include Ken and Chompoo’s “Gol Ruk Luang Hua Jai (Magical trick of the heart)”, Sukiyaki (named after a Japanese dish), “Nayok Rabeu Seu Ruk (Chairman ‘something’ channel for love)”.

Bascially, Ken and Chompoo’s first rumored lakorn together“Gol Ruk Luang Hua Jai (Magical trick of the heart)” has been scrapped and Chompoo and Tye’s “Plerng Prai (Spirit Blaze)” may never air unless the bosses of Ch3 and Yuwadee Thaihiran are able to reach an agreement.

Note that filming for “Plerng Prai (Spirit Blaze)” has been completed. If it does not air, money and precious time have been wasted.

“Prawit” Aranya Maleenon, the head boss of Ch3 does not know why “Plerng Prai (Spirit Blaze)” is not being broastcasted. He is not in that department. Prawit believes this situation is from a misunderstanding, it’s not Ch3 who wanted to end it with Yuma99, it was Yuwadee Thaihiran who wanted to stop making lakorns. Prawit hinted that possibly Yuma66 problem is having internal problems; however, he is not sure. The heck, why say it if you’re not sure?

Chompoo Araya is not too concern about the matter, she is just an actress what can she do. It’s all up to the Channel elders to decide. If it airs, she would be happy. If it doesn’t, she would be disappointed; however, not devastated because she has other projects lined up. At some point in time, she will be on TV again.

In an interview with Daradaily, Yuwadee Thaihiran hinted that Ch3 did not like her lakorn concepts because they are not “raeng”, not aggressive enough. They don’t fall into the lakorn category of crazy plots, crazy nang’rais, and to Ch3 bosses they are not marketable to the Thai public. She described her lakorn “Sukiyaki” as narak “adorable”, a pleasantly sweet lakorn.

Tye Nattapol’s new evening lakorn

Janjira, Matt, and Tye talking about their lakorn at Ch3′s upcoming lakorns event

I’m sure for many of you, this is the first time you’re hearing about “Guan Kammathep ( The Cupid Gang)”, Tye Nattapol and Matt Peeranee’s upcoming evening lakorn. It’s airing real soon, sometime in June after Ae Chaiya & Namfon Patcharin’s lakorn “Theppabut Chood Win” on Ch3. This lakorn is produced by Janjira Joojang, a well known comedic actress. It’s a romance comedy.

“Guan Kammathep ( The Cupid Gang)” follows the love story of an avant-garde girl and a well-mannered, conservative man.

Duang Dao wants her only daughter Kaysara (Matt Peeranee) to marry into the Trakunaphibuna family because in the past she failed to be a daughter-in-law in that family. When her daughter, who is half Thai and farang returns to Thailand, she immediately sets her plan in motion to trap Watit (Tye Nattapol), the male heir to the Trakunaphibuna family. Duang Dao’s master match-making plan is helped by her three good friends Plerntha, Somporn, and Nualnoi.

Duang Dao trains her daughter to be a polite and obedient, which opposes all of Kaysara’s personality. In reality, she is outrageous, spontaneous, and everything Watit hates in a woman. Watit is an old-fashioned and conservative man, he doesn’t want a wife who stands beside or ahead of him, he wants a wife who is subservient and stands behind him, literally.

Though Duang Dao tries her best to pair Watit and Kaysara together, she ultimately fails. Luckily for her, her mother Raunthong is friends with Watit’s grandmother.

In the end, Watit escape his fate with Kaysara, he is force into an arrange marriage with Kaysara by his grandmother. Watit gives Kaysara his name but does not take her as a “wife”, meaning they are legally married but they don’t have relations.

Because they are polar opposites of each other, Watit is a strict conservative man and Kaysara is a spontaneous fun woman, they often fight. Eventually, love develops in their marriage as they learn to appreciate and see the value of each other’s differences.

For a while, things were going well for Kaysara and Watit until Roger, Kaysara’s ex-boyfriend comes into the picture.
