.

wanted to post on something more chim so i did my research.

david copperfield. sound familar right? a very famous magician which everyone will know i guess. but recently have no news about him right? cos at 2007 november he was accused of raping. then he actually had some world tour in asia which include singapore. so it was all cancelled. and till now you dun hear much about him.

next, michael jackson. ya. he just passed away in June 25, 2009 from a drug overdose, amidst preparations for his "This Is It" concert series.
In 1993 he was accused of child sexual abuse, though no formal charges were brought. In 2005 he was tried and acquitted of similar allegations. and just some info about his face. he was a "black" american initially. (i am afraid that i might sound racist. but seriously no offence.) there are rumours about him wanting to look more like a white american. but according to him, he was pround of being a black american and it was actually some accidents(hair catching on fire, suffering from second and third degree burn on head and face. also when he was practicing his dance steps, he fell and injured his nose) that caused him to have sugeries. also in 1986 he was diagnosed with Vitiligo, a rare disease that causes drastic depigmentation in patches of the skin and therefore he had to "bleached" his skin. his father’s taunts and a growing addiction to surgery may have played a part in the star’s continued changes to his nose.

then we have a recent one, jack neo. he is a famous flim maker, director and actor in singapore. he was famous for his character as liang po po and liang xi mei. he also flimed 16 movies including the most recent one, being human. there are doubts that his movie will be "selling hot" due to his recent scandal. you should have heard about it ba? about having external affairs with 11 girls and trying to hook up young girls, asking them to hotels and so on.

lastly, i want to talk about dr william tan. he was someone that i looked up to(didnt want to use the word idol cos doesn't sound right.) he went to my secondary school and had some inspiring talk when i was sec2 i think. that time i was so motivated by him and i really look up to him as someone which i would want to be. someone who overcome challenges and gain the respect of many. but now, he is sued by he ex-girlfriend i would say for some issue on money. they had sexual intimancy and broke up in 2006 due to many disagreements as what dr william said.

conclusion is that these people which i mentioned are famous ppl and they had bright future ahead of them. david copperfield who could easily earned 57 million annually. although he is making a comeback( "Grand Illusion" tour in may, tickets sold at 27 to 57 dollars), i believe he would had lost a portion of his supporters, especially so, with liu qian popularity now. the rest i shall not further elaborate as it is too lenghty.. just want to say that because of the mistakes that people are making, they might have to sacrify thier future, their family and most importantly the trust that others had placed on them. and apparently, when these rich and famous people made mistakes, they will have "pay more". this is the opportunity cost. side track. i seriously think that everything in life can be link to econs. =)
