Amazing Race Asia Season 4 Episode 2 Team Standings
Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia was the setting for the second leg of Amazing Race Asia Season 4. In this leg, the teams were tasked to dance among tribe members and touch a snake's head, eat 100 chicken balls, solve a puzzle underwater and choose from river rafting on bamboo or shooting stones on a wooden target using an object used by some Malaysian tribes in hunting.
There were many twists and turns that happened as the race progressed. The most interesting for me was the Malaysian couple winning this leg when in fact the other teams were way ahead of them since they missed the flight where most of the team were in. Luckily, they were able to catch up when other teams had a hard time eating 100 chicken balls and incurring time penalties for not finishing the underwater task.

1. Ivan Evetovics, 33, University Lecturer | Tengku Hilda, 38, Researcher

Sarah Murdoch Announces Wrong Australia's Next Top Model 2010 Winner
In the live telecast of Australia's Next Top Model 2010, a mistake was made by the host of the show, Sarah Murdoch as she announced the winner of the competition. Instead of Amanda Ware, she declared Kelsey Martinovich as the winner. Just after the two finalists already said their speeches, Murdoch tried to explain saying,
“Oh my God, I don’t know what to say right now. I’m feeling a bit sick about this. No. I’m so sorry about this. Oh my God. I don’t know what to say. This was a complete accident.”
“It’s Amanda, I’m so sorry. It was fed to me wrong. Oh God. This is what happens when you have live TV folks. This is insane. Insane, insane, insane.”
The controversy lead to the producers of the show offering both models to send to New York to meet with Elite Model Management and also giving Kelsey a consolation prize worth $25,000.
Arissa Cheo Pictures
Already locally famed for her pretty looks and wealth, Singaporean heiress, Arissa Cheo became more popular when she got into a romantic relationship with Taiwanese Superstar, Vanness Wu of F4. Just recently though, the couple announced their break up.

Kris Aquino to Leave 'Pilipinas Win Na Win'
A twit in here Twitter account and a press release from ABS-CBN confirmed Kris Aquino's stay in the noontime show, 'Pilipinas Win na Win', will end by October 1st. To join Valerie Concepcion and Pokwang, The TV network said that they would like to try out a combination of new hosts in the person of Rico J. Puno, Rey Valera, Marco Sison and Nonoy Zuñiga - aka the Hitmakers.
Noypi's notes:
I believe Kris Aquino is doing great in the show and I am not really a fan of the replacement hosts. Is Kris too expensive or is the show too shallow for someone like Kris? But rumors has it that Kris Aquino will be hosting 'Pilipinas, Deal or No Deal'. Again? Can't the network afford another franchise like 'Minute to Win it' which I guess would be a hit?

KevJumba and His Dad on Amazing Race Season 17
Waaaaah... I know Amazing Race Season 17 is to premier today but I did not know that I'd be seeing a familiar face as I watched it just moments ago. I saw KevJumba and his dad in the show!
For those who does not know, KevJumba (Kevin Wu) is a Youtube 'celebrity' who is known for his funny clips in the video site. His dad, Michael Wu, already appeared on KevJumba's videos also. So this explains why Kevjumba was out from youtube for like a month last summer. Presumably, he was with his dad racing with other 10 teams around the globe.
I hope they'll do better in the next leg since they were just 7th to arrive at the piststop in the premier episode. I just wanna see more of them. :D

The story of a woman from Vancouver, Bethany Storro, touched the hearts of many people when she claimed that one day, while purchasing sunglasses, a woman described as African-American approached her and asked if she wanted a drink.

Bethany Storro now confessed to the police that she poured acid on herself. The motives of the action and whether authorities and prosecutors will file charges against her action are still unknown.
