Now, that's what you call a Guest Star!!!

Ok, me will be honest here. Me was scanning the online news portals & was just about to post an article about the MIC's continued delusion & how it will soon find itself out in the cold. Then this article (below) caught me eye.

Better to highlight some "world" news rather than constantly harping on local issues, don'tya think?

Besides, these pix sure beats having to look at Samy's hair do . . .

Comments, people?

Japanese porn star in Indonesian film riles clerics
JAKARTA, Sept 29 — Filmmakers in Indonesia say they would stick to their plans to fly in a top Japanese porn star to act in a local comedy. Muslim leaders have blasted plans to bring out erotic film megastar Maria Ozawa, 23, popularly known as Miyabi, to play herself in the upcoming film, Menculik Miyabi (Kidnapping Miyabi).

But Maxima Productions general manager Adi Sudiadi said the firm would stick to plans to include Ozawa in the film, which tells the story of a group of university students who accidentally kidnap the starlet.

“We guarantee that Miyabi won’t be playing in a porn film here. We will bring her here not as a porn star, but purely for a comedy,” Sudiadi said. “Miyabi is well-known to Indonesians. We are expecting her to attract a lot of spectators here.

“We are also trying to fix Miyabi’s image by showing she can be more than just a porn star,” he said, adding that no final agreement had been reached with Ozawa to act in the film.

Indonesian Council of Ulema chairman Amidhan slammed the choice of Ozawa — who has gained notoriety in Japan’s porn industry, thanks to her Canadian-Japanese looks — as a threat to the moral health of the country’s youth.

“Even if the film isn’t pornographic, it is very dangerous for our young people, particularly if they become fans of this porn actress and become curious enough to watch her films,” he said. “We have to be firm and not let rubbish into our country. This is about Indonesia’s reputation as the world’s most populous Muslim country”’

Nearly 90 per cent of Indonesia’s 234 million people are Muslim. Indonesia’s Parliament earlier this month passed a controversial film law that imposes tighter controls on content, including violence and sex. - Malaysian Insider

ps: Am looking forward to heaing what Tuan Kerp has to say about this . . . (*snigger*)

Th funny thing is on the article itself: "Sudiadi said. “Miyabi is well-known to Indonesians...."

My question is: How the Indonesians people know her??

anfield devotee said...

Ahhh, Les Malais, ye should see the number of Indonesian websites/blogs dedicated to her.

Where do you think me got the pix from?

Ha ha!

Balaji...
Hmmmm...m wondering how to start this...
My Comment balaji...
regarding Miyabi aka Maria Ozawa...
what can i add furthermore...
Hot...sizzling...able to turn soft tofu into hard tofu...

But regarding this issue...
i would just like to cooment on this statement

“We have to be firm and not let rubbish into our country.

Clearly shows how the clerics..view her.. a rubbish...
and i will not be suprised if some wackos committing suicide bombing the whole film crew including Miyabi during the shooting of the film...

The excuse given...Cleaning Rubbish...

Balaji... you should posted this too...

Police in Iran are ordering store owners to cover up mannequins that expose curves or hair. All mannequins must wear head scarves - hijabs- as well as loose-fitting clothing to counter Western influences.

The ban is one of President Ahmadinejad's attempts to enforce religious dress codes in Iran. Since his inauguration in 2005, numerous crackdowns have been made on shop owners to make sure they are complying. It has been common for police to check on shop keepers in the hot summer months, but winter examinations are becoming more common. Police also warn men with "Western" hairstyles, and women who show off curves with tight pants.

Violators are often given a warning after their first offence, and can be taken to court or ordered to take "guidance classes" if they don't cover the mannequins....

P/s... Since i'm only able to read ur blog during woffice hours..
both of your recent posting is viable to have me suspended for viewing obscene pics...
What a world...

“We have to be FIRM and not let rubbish into our country.

Hahahahaohhh! Looks like Miyabi's desired effect has already taken on :P

Kerp (Ph.D) said...

cehhh...somehow i knew my name's mentioned at the end of this post.

obviously its a marketing strategy for the production house to fly in a pornstar as hot as Miyabi. not that i have anything against this move but frankly la joe, i think Indonesia has abundance of great talents in their own backyard. and many of them are quite a looker too, if not hotter than miyabi. this controversial move has got to be part of their marketing plan aswell becuase by inviting controversy means the film will get more coverage from the media.

having pointed my 2sens, lemme see what i can find of this beauty from torrent...muahahahaha...

Tinesh said...

I agree with Kerp. Indon has got some hot ass chicks, namely the Azhari sisters and Tina Lestari :P

Like they say, any publicity is good publicity :D

anfield devotee said...

anba: Pls don't blame f ye gets the sack.

premo: "Rubbish"? That the best they can come up with the combat porn . . . Fook, they sure are losing this battle BIG fooking time.

Kerp: Yer reputation preceds ye la, macha.

Tinesh: Hey, come on lar. At least its a publicity stunt to boost movie's profile. Much better than giving Sharukh Khan a 'datukship' rite?

Tinesh said...

way better. what's he done for msia now that he's a datuk?

Achilles said...

AD: Wahh.... that's really cool. In Malaysia, the producers will all kena ISA or they just won't let the movie go on.

And giving Sharuk khan the datukship was a real joke.... these dunggu's may have seen it as a publicity stunt, but looked more like a joke on us lah. Buat malu je....

anfield devotee said...

tinesh: Well, to be fair, unlike some other Datuks, Datuk Sharukh Khan has NOT embezzled zillions of tax payer ringgit . . . so that's a refreshing change.

Achilles: Why import when we have our own Chua Soi Leck & DPP Vijendran?

Kerp (Ph.D) said...

not to forget a pedo Tamby from Melaka.

that's what we call a real muhibbah. soil lek completes it.

anfield devotee said...

Precisely Kerp, that's one are which we are truly Muhibah. Sex scandal we memang 1Malaysia.

Off Topic - re: Comedy Court 1 Kind Show

Watched the show last night & if you haven't firmed up your plans to watch it, better do so ASAP. Well worth stumping up RM50 for a near 3 hour laugh-a-minute show with all new material & return of updated Spa scene.

The kote fellas have also now wizened up to marketing strategy & have made the 1999 "Executive Spa" show available on DVD A RM15 a pop. You can even get a box set (RM60) containing 4 DVD of various shows & songs including the Exec Spa DVD. Oh & the box set also includes a calender.

Achilles said...

Bernard: Me and Premo going tonight... will give my review after. But we had to pay RM 75 though. hope its good.

anfield devotee said...

Achilles: Macha, am pretty sure ye'll have a great time. Enjoy!

Bernard: Did ye buy the box set?

Bernard said...

Achilles + Premo - just to let you know, the hall is bloody small. RM50 seats you within the 1st 3 rows & within spitting distance. Also, I found it a tad stuffy last nite.

Curry puff, water & coffee is provided during the 15 min break but good idea to just go for the water as your mouth & throat will tend to go dry after so much laughing!! There's even audience participation at the end, so I'm sure you guys will enjoy it!

Bala - no didn't get it as I only wanted 1 of the other DVD. If Rajan or Premo get it, maybe they'd be kind enuff to burn for us??

Achilles said...

Bernard: How long is the show? Does it start sharp at 8:30? Me rushing home after work and then only coming out.... so scared i might be a tad bit late.

DVD box set? let me see what they have and will let you guys know.

Bernard said...

Achilles - started about 10/15 mins late & finished last night about 11.30pm. Don't forget its Friday today & you may encounter some traffic.

anfield devotee said...

Anyone buying the DVDs, beware, we bought one at the last show & it was fooked up. Tak boelh read . . .

Bernard said...

So who's fault was that then? Blame it on the money grabbing kote's I suppose....HEE! HEE! HEE!

theALBERTUS said...

ooooh...eeeeeh....ooohh!! Ahh the sounds of Maria Ozawa. That is one HOTTTTT BABE! Pity though, she is French Canadian and Japanese and she is shunned by her parents for her role in the industry. I had a porno of her once and man was she hot but i kinda thought she ended up more like the asian verson of Chasey Lane...oh well what do i know!

As they say in Kiwiland here to anyone Indons....good on ya mate!

anfield devotee said...

Albertus: Chasey Lane? Sorry, me no understand yer porno longo . . .

theALBERTUS said...

Maria Ozawa is one hot babe!
