The Royal Wedding "Live"

Well here it is the 29th of April has finally arrived, with all the anticipation and hype over the last month speculating on all the small, fine details for Prince William and Miss Kate's Royal wedding...."Everything will be revealed shortly"

I am pleased to be literally moments away from doing my part on the live Commentary of the nuptuals over the next three hours, Live from MNC Studios, with my co-host (Chantal). "I will report to you all how the show went in a few hours" 'Wish me luck'....

Just Preping before I go LIVE on air with my last minute notes

"Well the Show was a Success and "Thanks to everyone that watched"; it was a long three hours, and I did not manage to squeeze in a Bathroom break at all, so the relief of being able to go to the toilet afterwards was just overwhelming".

Kate and William looked stunning, and I wish them all the best for their future together, may they have many happy years ahead.

I am very grateful to be selected to be doing this Broadcast; on behalf of the Indonesian public, with the live feeds coming through directly from the BBC, I hope you all enjoy the show, don't forget to tune in! (SUN TV) Global TV>RCTI>TVone

My Clothes have been kindly sponsored by the amazing Tailors at Wong Hang, so a big Thank you to you all at the Jakarta "Wong Hang Tailors" Branch, for your hard work, dedication and attention to detail, my suits are exquisite.

Also to my Producer and  long time friend (DITA) "Couldn't have done it without your guidance and expertise", also to all the 5 camera men, lighting, stage runners, and last but not least the Makeup/wardrobe peeps (Thanks for making me look alive).

Well I am off to film the SCTV Music Award show now, "No rest for the wicked as they say", luckily its only off and on stage for 15 minutes before I can go home and collapse on my bed (Capeeeeee Bangeettttt)

Signing Out "Cusssssssss"


"Have a nice weekend everyone"....

Its my Birthday today!

Well today has finally come, the day I have been dreading for the last month, the 14th of APRIL another year added onto my twenties :(


Its always a very odd feeling turning of age, I remember when I was a child I was always desperate to be older quicker so I could have freedom and do as I please, but as the years pass by so quickly I always think to myself how nice it would be to pause time and rewind a few years back. 

“Maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had, and what you've learned from them, and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.”

I've learned some of my hardest and most important life lessons within the last 7 years and when some reporter asked me the other day "if I could change my past would I"? I answered "if it was not for my mistakes in the past, I would not be who I am today,....I also feel as-well that any unresolved differences we may have with some old friends, and family, are better left in the past and better to forgive, as family is number #1.


I have an immense gratitude for a few people on this day, firstly to my almighty GOD, for always being by my side through thick and thin, and also to my most wonderfully supportive parents (Mum and Dad) even though we have always had our quarrels I will always love you both for eternity and I just want to ask for forgiveness on my part for any wrong doing in the past, 


To My Mum: who always shows me the most immense love, compassion and kindness, and despite her very few faults is the Best Mother I could ever have wanted and asked for, "You did Ace my darling clementine, Love you"...


To My Dad you taught me about a mans honour and keeping a promise, honesty, virtue, always try to be as precise as you can in any job on hand, organisational skills, keeping a good faith in the lord God, and in general being there to comfort me when I was sick, or could not sleep "Thanks Dad, Love you so much".


Also to my Aunt Jennifer who has given me some amazing childhood experiences and taught me about manners, respecting elders, nature and the most interesting historical weekends around Scotland over the years "those memories are with me forever" and you really have spoiled me rotten over the years, you have always been my number one aunt and like a second mother to me, you would have made an amazing mother and I'm just lucky to have you in my life"....'The wise owl has spoken'....hehehe 


To my incredible partner Indry, "I love you you more with everyday that passes and don't know where I would be without you"...."Aku cinta mati kamu sayang"....


Also to my Manager, Assistant Manager, Management, assistant, and anyone who is involved in my work and for always believing in my potential, "I thank you guys so much, from the bottom of my heart for making everything I do possible, we still have a long way to go and I know with the right guidance I can be someone that can make us all proud, Johnny, Boy, David, and also to Chitra and the doggies....


And to my followers, friends and aquaintances on twitter, facebook and in real-time 'Thanks for the love and support GBU all...


My Party was a big success, although I think I had more press members than guests turning up,...well it was an awesome night so here are the pictures...."enjoy"

With Age comes wisdom and new paths

    Time truly does fly doesn't it!??

The weeks seem to be flying in the last two weeks have been incredible, work-wise I've had a few really good offers for some reality shows for various channels in Indonesia, also it has been confirmed that I will be hosting the Royal Wedding live to the Indonesian public on the 29th of April from the MNC Studios in Jakarta 16:00 (Jakarta Time) and I will be commentating on the live feed as it comes through from the UK, my co presenter is still to be confirmed, so I have been brushing up on all the gossip and news about the to-be newly-weds. "its got me all fascinated now in the history of royal weddings and traditions", thanks to the BBC Knowledge channel on Cable I have been watching some truly amazing documentaries about the royal family in the last century.

Also just been for a return trip to Singapore on the 13th of April, for an interview with Mercedes Benz, as I hope to get a full time position for the company "Just crossing my fingers it all works out as planned"

Back to my entertainment news, I was interviewed with the "Press Association at CHEFS KITCHEN Kemang" about my sponsorship from them for my Birthday party for the 14th of April 2011 and also a little about my wife and how she was progressing with her pregnancy.

Touch of Gold Event

Hi Bloggers,


Well its been nearly a full week since my last Blog, I've certainly been a busy little bee, since the last time I blogged, I've had lunch up a Mountain, Seen some Breath-Taking scenery and just recently was invited to an amazing VIP event, and was personally invited by the organizers of the "Marlboro" Touch of Gold event held at the Sampoerna Strategic Square, the event was set in a fabulous white ensemble, set across white and gold themed couches, marble long tables and 3 bars, one serving wines, the other vodka and another with fruit juices and amazing tiny bites.


The event was attended by some of my amazing friends, consisting of Models, entertainment peeps and some aquaintances of mine that go a long way back, so it was really great catching up.


“Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.”

With the Gang all looking Fabulous of course!

This was snapped on a randomly and my name was right behind my head

Here is some pictures from the event, once again wanna say a big thank you to the organizers of the event, also to my long time friend Dana "thanks for the VIP invite and remembering me in your list "Biatche" haha GBU
