2/11 Singaporean women to rip William Hung's clothes off?
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2004/02/11/BAGCM4U0UR1.DTL
\_ They just want to know the same thing we all do. Is William well
hung?
\_ no no, its "How is William Hung?"
\_ I can't even count the number of ways this thread is
disturbing.
\_ I saw his original audition video on a website, and really
don't find anything that makes him so special. Why are
people so obsessed over him?
\_ I don't understand why people are still watching this show.
It's the same crap repeated over and over again with
different losers each time.
\_ I think it's the wide-eyedness of his performance. He doesn't
hold anything back, and isn't concerned at all with how he
appears. He's going balls out for something he wants, and is
totally unashamed. I think people find it very refreshing, as
well as extremely funny. --scotsman
\_ Some Chinese people I know (yes I'm Chinese too) won't pursue
news on this, they say from his photo he looks mentally handicapped,
and they think it's in poor taste to make fun of him. Conversely,
when he talks and from his quotes and major at Berkeley, he seems
intelligent.
\_ he may not be a retard, but i doubt he's that smart either.
he somehow got it in his head from winning a silly dorm
contest that he was cut out for singing.
\_ From some viewing angles he looks like he has down's syndrome,
but I don't think he does.

\_ singaporean women's comments:

\_ Thanks for the great info. This dude is cool. Is he from
Singapore? I am going to forward this to my berkeley
singaporean buddies from the good old days. - motd resident sporean
\_ Darn! He is from Hong Kong. Hong Kong always beat us. |

I already gave my best, the Hong Kong-born Hung responded, and I have no regrets at all. America guffawed and gulped, taken with Hungs grace as much as his unique hip shimmies. Fans responded immediately: The man who is now known as the Hong Kong Ricky Martin received 150 e-mails that night. Chins fan site has been visited nearly 8 million times, while an online petition to get Hung back on the show claimed 30,000 signatures as of Tuesday afternoon. DJs have been remixing Hungs audition with everything from OutKasts Hey Ya to Howard Deans Iowa scream. Meanwhile, Hung said he has been invited to perform at events from a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game to the MTV Asia Awards in Singapore, and he has appeared on several television shows. On Monday night, Hung performed at an open mike at the Clark Kerr dormitories where he used to live and work in the dining commons. This time he was greeted by more than 400 students armed with cameras and camcorders. And its Berkeleys own, said sophomore Alex Bollfrass in explaining his attendance. You have to respect his genuineness, said fifth-year student Whitney Brechwald. But freshman Mike Lieberman was uncomfortable with the energy in the crowd. Hes out there performing, but everybody else sees him as a comedy act. Hung has joined an elite group of inadvertent Internet celebrities, among them Ghyslain Star Wars Kid Raza, a Quebec teenager who last year filmed himself twirling a golf ball retriever like a light saber and was petrified when classmates uploaded it to the insatiable eyeballs of the world. But Hung is enjoying his 15 minutes, and even says he is trying to let time pass between appearances and interviews to lengthen the limelight. Hungs story began with trips to karaoke bars with his parents in Los Angeles. As a freshman at Cal, he won a dormitory talent show by singing She Bangs. Last September, on a whim, he went to Pacific Bell Park to join thousands of people trying to get on American Idol. The producers selected him to go in front of Cowell and the shows other two judges, telling him She Bangs was his best bet. Unbowed by Cowells criticism, Hung - who lives alone in a residential hotel in downtown Berkeley - has only become more serious about his singing career. |
| www.williamhung.net/wst_page10.html How does it come to be that a young sincere man like Will is on TV for a couple minutes at the most and has created a huge impact on the entire world? I, too, like one of your readers is a middle aged housewife with 4 kids. I sang that song over and over, along with some fancy hand and arm moves, for days. Finally a few days ago, I asked my husband to find me a video clip on the web, so I could play it on my computer and make me smile. Not only did he find the clip, but he found the entire website created for Will! There is truly something special about Will-and the world is about to see it. I just hope that the truth of his character-honesty, sincerity, and humbleness, not to mention the pure effort and hard work are preserved. These characteristics are pure, and must be something we all treasure, because we all love Will. Lisa, Hartford, WI Will, I just wanted to tell you I wish I knew more people with your heart, your spunk and your good attitude. I recently went on a cruise with some friends and our theme song of our cruise was, She Bangs. He is obviously very intelligent and he had his 15 seconds of fame is turning into a little bit more than that. Nicole Will, I may not be a civil engineer, but Im smart enough to know a catch when I see one. I see in you passion, dedication, romance, generosity, and a kind heart not to mention a little bit of saucyness all things required to make a great husband! If Im not the lucky girl someday, I hope whom ever is treats you with the sweetness and dignity you deserve! |
