2nd Annual Nataraja Awards 2011

The Nataraja Awards 2011 just finished airing a few hours ago on Ch5. Everyone looked great, BEAUTIFUL. No one was lip-synching when they had to sing the nominated best lakorn songs. Singers from the Star franchise, KPN franchise, and selected AF kids were grouped together to sing the songs. It was a live performance that bedazzled me, it was like a mini concert with all these talented young Thai singers.  I was blown away.

The duet between Gam and Patcha for the song “Pler Ruk Mot Jai (Absent-minded Love)” from the lakorn “Dok Ruk Rim Tang (Roadside Love Flower)” was one of the highlights of the show.

Though the show was beautifully orchestrated, it was a little off , Ploy Chermarn was not there to accept her Best Actress award for the lakorn ‘Rabam Duang Dao (The Star Dance)’, Ken Theeradeth had to awkwardly accept the award on her behalf. Ken presented the nominees and named the winner Ploy Chermarn but she never came up. There was an odd pause where Ken stood to the side waiting for Ploy to come up. Then he realizes she is not coming, so he had to accept the award on her behalf with a chuckle.  There is a whole discussion about this at Pantip. The first annual Nataraja Awards was amazing–this year,  some complained it lacked ‘ dara spirit’ because some of the nominees did not attend. ‘Chai’ Chatayodom Hiranyatsathiti and Ploy Chermarn won but did  not attend. “Aff” Taksaorn Paksukcharean and “Aum” Patcharapa Chaichuea who were nominated in the Best Actress category did not attend, it was quite noticeable too. For the Best Supporting Actor award, only one nominee was present, Puri Hiranpruk. It was really off.

Ken accepting Ploy’s award starts around the 5:20 time mark.

Winners in the lakorn category:

Best song: “Hai Ruk Dern Tang Mah Jer Gan (Let love met)” from the 4 Hearts of Khun Kao Yai Ch3

Mos is married

By
Lyn
– April 3, 2011Posted in: Thai stars

 

Gosh Damn, wow, it’s not a wedding, it’s a Mos fashion themed concert. There was dancing, an entertainment show for the wedding guests, he surely made it his own. I think out of all the celebrity weddings this year, Mos and Game will be the most memorable for its adorable cheesiness.

A few hours ago, Mos married his long time girlfriend of 9 years ‘Game’ Duangporn Luekitinan at the Centara Grand hotel in Bangkok. Mos said this about his wife: “we have been dating for 9  years na. I felt impressed with her the first day I have met her and she has not changed. Game is a responsible person with a good heart. This was like a test and she was able to pass the secret of a superstar test.  We don’t have to hide anymore.”

The thing that surprises me that they have not signed their marriage certificate yet. What?

“About signing the marriage certificate, we will have to think about it again because we were too engrossed in planning the wedding, wanting it not to coincide with anyone else’s date. We wanted itto be enjoyable. But for sure we will sign our marriage certificate. We just have to wait until everything is set,” said Mos.

I have never been married, so I don’t know how this process works in the US or in Thailand, don’t you just  go down to the courthouse and sign documents. That’s how they do it in lakorns and other asian series. Haha. Nonetheless, I’m happy for this couple, everyone is different.

The couple has no plans for their honeymoon and they do  want kids but are waiting a year.

A clip from their engagement ceremony from Wednesday March 30. It’s start at the 1:07 time mark.

Nok Chatchai and his four wives

By
Lyn
– October 12, 2009Posted in: Lakorn

Come on now, another icky lakorn is being remade. Why? I’ll pass on this one also. An older man with multiple wives is just not my cup of tea. “Mongkut Dok Som (The orange blossom crown)” from 1996 is a lakorn about a Thai man of Chinese heritage who has 4 wives ranging from old to young, it is the Thai lakorn version of Zhang Yimou’s acclaimed film, “Raise the red lantern.”

This version will have “Nok” Chatchai Plengpanich be the patriarch of this dysfunctional family. His first wife is played by Jariya Anfone (she is an older woman roughly around her mid 50′s). “Joy” Rilanee Sripen is the beautiful, sassy second wife who is having an affair, I believe in the Thai lakorn and in the film, she is killed off. “Nampueng” Nattharika Thammapreedanan is the third wife. On the surface she appears kind and gentle, really she is cunning and evil. In the original 1996 version, Nampueng was the nang’ek and the third wife. For this version, she is playing the main villain who is the second wife. How ironic. The youngest, the fourth wife, and the nang’ek of this lakorn is played by “Gybzy” Wanida Termthanaporn.

The opening of the original version on youtube:
