Malaysian AIM Awards
 | | Liza Hanim | After a breather, it was on to the Barnum and Bailey meets the Ringling Brothers as the circus sideshow came on in full force with Liza Hanim, Sarah Raisuddin, Misha Omar, Ning Baizura and Siti Nurhaliza coming on stage to deliver a deplorable Bahasa Malaysia version of Mariah Carey's hit, My All. The atrocious choice of that song, considering the wealth of our own local material, failed to drive any point home, apart from the fact that while our industry has talent, creativity and originality are never our strong points.
Vocally, it seemed a contest to show who was the best Mariah impersonator with Ning and Liza taking the lead with ease, while Siti tried way too hard to make her contribution matter while the greener Misha and Sarah just backed off to murmur and mumble into the microphone to make up the numbers. What they might thought was the highlight of the show, was actually one of the lowest points, being a senseless waste of a good five minutes (but then again, the other two hours 55 minutes plus commercials weren’t that good either).
