Online reality show Malaysian Dreamgirl 2009 is coming to an end!
Votes are still being received till this Thursday 14th May so it’s not too late for you to vote for your favourite Malaysian Dreamgirl.
I’m going to start this (long) post with the four girls who were left as of a week ago
(Titles of photoshoots are all bolded and underlined)
That Special Day
Pinky, Ming, Juanita and Dawn were asked to pose with the Chevrolet as if it were their newlywed husband.
Pinky did a nice job of holding her pain (as Elaine mentioned) and posing uncomfortably on the car.
The flow of her dress and her body language would make me think she’s leaning on her man.
I’m trying not to imagine how it would look like if it were Ah Fai (her boyfriend that plays a rather substantial role in the show) cos that would distract me.
But i’m digressing.
Ming‘s shot was my favourite for this shoot.
She looked well and truly comfortable and lovey dovey in the pic.
You can almost imagine her stroking the car gently or something!
Juanita was asked to soften her shoulders after this shoot.
She looks fine in the photo, but it doesn’t reflect softness and love to me.
Makes me think this model signed a prenup for sure!
Dawn‘s expression hit the comfortable + loving button here,
but i’m not in favour of her pose.
A wedding dress is meant to be flared out in exhilaration to the world,
not squished into a confined space 0_-
After that photoshoot, one girl was eliminated based on votes.
Ming was sent home at the final elimination, you can read more about it here,
or watch Episode 21 here.
I was sorry to see her go, as i liked her style above all the other girls.
I liked the starry top she wore in the Incredible Me challenge,
and recognised the Kate Moss for Topshop paisley dress she wore to Sunway Lagoon
(if i’m not mistaken!)
She took an obvious interest to fashion and studied poses, to her advantage in the competition.
We wrote about her twice on Tongue in Chic here.
You can check out her personal blog here.
And Then There Were Three.
Well who would’ve thought that the final 3 would be Pinky, Juanita and Dawn?
At the start of the competition, i really fancied Farah and Natasha.
I think Farah’s got such a lawar face,
and Natasha was so photogenic in front of the camera (plus point for the excellent Intel ad she did)
But let’s concentrate on the final three, shall we.
I’m going to start from one of their earliest shoots in the competition,
right till the end.
And for each shoot, i’ll grade them in order of preference.
I.e. 1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice.
(This is just my opinion so don’t get emo -_-)
Elaine’s Workshop
Pinky – safe pose, sweet and average.
Juanita – really do not like this pose. Sorry, but first thought was a jungle animal.
Dawn – Better than the other two, but i never was fond of the lift-arm-up-ie-karaoke-video pose.
Placing: Dawn, Pinky, Juanita
But it was their first shoot, moving on!
Incredible Me
Pinky – looks sexy and comfortable here. Nice sharp angle too.
Juanita – the contours of her body look amazing here, but she somehow looks stiff and uncomfortable.
Dawn – being her bubbly self with a hint of cheekiness.
Placing: Dawn, Pinky, Juanita
So Beautilicious
Pinky – looks like an absolute DOLL here.
Juanita – should’ve opened her eyes a bit bigger maybe, she looks stoned, and this unfortunately wasn’t her best angle.
Dawn – Don’t like this angle at all. Eyes don’t look balanced, and i notice the teeth too much.
Placing: Pinky, Juanita, Dawn
Intimate Wacoal
This is a tough one, i thought they all looked professional and gorgeous here.
Pinky – decent pose, but may not have the best assets for a lingerie shoot. I’m liking the confident pose tho.
Juanita – makes me want to buy the lingerie in belief i will look like that.
Dawn – timid pose, with nice look-into-my-Bambi-eyes expression.
Placing: Juanita, Pinky, Dawn
Pavilion
Pinky – nice poses of different variations overall.
Juanita – nice poses too, but looking at them all together makes me think of the word ‘stiff’ once again.
Though on second look, two other words that come to mind are – “working it”Β
Dawn – her dancing history puts her above the other girls and it goes with the dress somehow.
I think “ballerina couture”
Placing: Dawn, Pinky, Juanita
Bella Lifestyle
Pinky – i think she looks really nice and natural here.
Juanita – looks relaxed and manages to elongate her body.
Dawn – looks most at ease here. She won this challenge.
Have to commend her for being able to smile like that in the hot sun.
Last time i tried it i cried my make up off.
Placing: Dawn, Pinky, Juanita
Wella Inspiration
Pinky – almost getting the high fashion look.
Juanita – simply. fierce. which is what she’s good at!
Dawn – sorry but the haircut did you real injustice this time.
Placing: Juanita, Pinky, Dawn
Redbull Challenge
Pinky – she tried, but she looks like a tad feeble (i feel her leg isn’t kicked high enough) and you could still snatch her handbag if you tried.
Juanita – i like the fists and arm placement, feet could be better but i do think of Thundercats or something.
She means some Redbull business that’s for sure.
Dawn – again, her dancing background comes into advantage.
Cannot find fault with the finger/hand/feet pose.
Placing: Juanita, Dawn, Pinky
Marie France Bodyline
Pinky – aiyo i don’t know what happened to Pinky here.
I swear this is how i pose when i wait at an event to start sometimes.
Juanita – not mind-blowing. And i think the clothes did not help.
Dawn – slightly playful, and definitely better than the other two.
Placing: Dawn, Juanita, Pinky
Miss Incredible
Pinky – she won this challenge for looking so natural.
I like that i looks like there was movement involved.
Juanita – i get the whole top of the castle pose which is apt,
but the hands-on-hips pose reminds me too much of the challenge just before.
At least she’s smiling! Yay! Finally!
Dawn – I didn’t like the shot at first when i saw it in the episode,
but here i like the angles she’s playing with,
and how she looks like she’s creeping up playfully on someone.
Placing: Pinky, Dawn, Juanita
Go Safari
The last challenge of the show, the girls were asked to pose with a snake.
Pinky reacted rather hysterically. Scratch that, she reacted VERY hysterically – crying and screaming.
The whole time i was thinking ‘poor snake!’
But i at least she got the pictures taken (tears being wiped in between make up) despite her utter fear.
Funniest was when she called her boyfriend Ah Fai to tell him about it and he retorted,
“Why you so scared? You always play with the snake mar… a lot of the snake you play.”
LOL
Pinky shrieked that this snake was very big and hairy.
SUPER LOL!
Since when did the reptile become hairy?
Maybe she’s mixing her snakes up.
Her boyfriend had the cheek to ask her, “Bigger than me?”
I’m sorry, i couldn’t stop laughing watching it.
So salah can die the conversation.
Then he called her a crybaby aiyo.
Funny la they two.
Anyway, the pictures!
Pinky – at least she didn’t back out, bravo!

Dawn – nice how she stretched out her leg, seems to go with the snake’s length.

Juanita – was said to be an extreme pro at the shoot, handling the snake and posing with it confidently.
Too confidently perhaps, that the snake sneezed.
Seriously, i thought it was in attack mode.
I’m not scared of snakes, but i swear if a snake sneezed while it was on me like that,
i might’ve flung it off me in half a second, no matter how much i love living things!

Votes received between 5 May 2009 β 14 May 2009 (10 days) ony. The model with the highest SMS votes for this 10-day period will be the next Malaysian Dreamgirl. Voting lines are open 24×7, so vote as many times as you like whenever you like.
Overall, i think it’s a contest between Dawn and Juanita for the Malaysian Dreamgirl 2009 title.
I much prefer Dawn’s poses, but Juanita’s fierce factor, facial features, speaking ability and great body give her an upperhand.

Actually she said that the snake was very big and HEAVY, not hairy(no wonder so many people got the wrong idea!). I was also teasing her about she is always playing snake “style” just like in the Redbull Challenge footage. It’s crazy to talk dirty in the public -_-
I like Juanita’s characteristics π
i actually like Dawn’s characteristics best π
ha ha really! i think the subtitles said ‘big and hairy’ too that’s why!
