00:00:13 Hi, assalamualaikum!
00:00:15 Welcome back to Borat Celebrity!
00:00:17 I'm back, guys!
00:00:18 Yeah! We are back also!
00:00:20 Yes, that's right!
00:00:21 After a month without being together, we're back together!
00:00:26 I took a two-week break.
00:00:27 Dina, before I took a break...
00:00:29 I took a two-week break.
00:00:30 You took a two-week break too?
00:00:31 Yes.
00:00:32 Oh, a month, Dina!
00:00:33 A month!
00:00:34 But the important thing is...
00:00:35 Falik, have you ever done Borat Celebrity alone?
00:00:37 Yes, I have.
00:00:39 Alone?
00:00:39 Yes, I have done it alone with my sister.
00:00:42 Oh, really?
00:00:43 Okay, I...
00:00:43 But you did it twice.
00:00:45 I did it once.
00:00:46 There was a pack of candy.
00:00:48 Oh, really?
00:00:49 Yes, I remember.
00:00:50 You remember, right?
00:00:50 Yes, I remember.
00:00:51 But this week, when we're back together, we're guests.
00:00:56 Yes.
00:00:56 Oh, my.
00:00:57 We've been ordering for a long time.
00:00:58 We've been ordering for a long time.
00:01:00 We've just arrived.
00:01:00 It's normal to use shipping.
00:01:02 People say, "The ship is late, it's late."
00:01:04 It's the economy!
00:01:06 Which is, she's a prima donna.
00:01:09 Yes, that's right.
00:01:10 She has a lot of...
00:01:11 I think, she's the first person...
00:01:15 who has the first chance to sing abroad.
00:01:19 She won the international competition.
00:01:21 She's the first Malaysian woman...
00:01:22 The first Malaysian woman to win an international competition.
00:01:24 Yes.
00:01:25 That was in 1995.
00:01:27 What I saw as a trivia is...
00:01:30 Let's be honest.
00:01:31 Let's be honest.
00:01:32 She's the first woman or the first artist...
00:01:35 who wore contact lenses when doing...
00:01:38 What do you call it?
00:01:39 A photoshoot.
00:01:40 For real?
00:01:40 I don't know, I just read it.
00:01:41 Oh, we'll ask her later.
00:01:43 And...
00:01:43 We'll introduce her.
00:01:44 And before that...
00:01:46 Before Dina knew that she could sing,
00:01:48 she wanted to be Zia Nazrin when she was young.
00:01:51 Why?
00:01:52 She just wanted to be herself.
00:01:53 At that time, I didn't know.
00:01:54 When I was young, I wanted to be Zia Nazrin.
00:01:56 Just the two of us.
00:01:57 I wanted to be Zia Nazrin and Dato' Aisyah.
00:01:59 Okay.
00:01:59 At that time, I was still a Dato'.
00:02:00 I sang Aisyah.
00:02:01 Now, we're bringing to you...
00:02:03 the one and only...
00:02:04 Zia Nazrin!
00:02:06 Yo, what's up?
00:02:07 Oh!
00:02:07 Wow!
00:02:10 Wow!
00:02:11 Wow!
00:02:11 Very urban.
00:02:13 Yes.
00:02:14 Gen Z.
00:02:16 Okay.
00:02:16 You said you wanted to be Zia Nazrin, right?
00:02:18 Yes.
00:02:18 Okay.
00:02:19 3, 4, okay?
00:02:20 My phone fell.
00:02:22 Wait a minute.
00:02:23 Oh, Falik.
00:02:26 I want to play the guitar.
00:02:27 But the chords are not in tune.
00:02:28 But you want to be Zia Nazrin, right?
00:02:30 Okay.
00:02:31 3, 4, okay?
00:02:31 In.
00:02:32 In.
00:02:34 ♪ ♪
00:02:53 Okay.
00:02:54 Zia Nazrin, comment.
00:02:55 But it's true.
00:02:57 I have a recording.
00:02:59 I was about 5 years old.
00:03:03 Or 4 years old.
00:03:04 In 1996, I sang the song Anggapanmu.
00:03:07 It's still in the cassette.
00:03:09 Praise be to God.
00:03:10 Anggapanmu is a high song.
00:03:10 That song is difficult, right?
00:03:11 Why did my mother ask me to sing that song at that time?
00:03:16 It's like...
00:03:17 ♪ ♪
00:03:19 Oh, it came out at the end, right?
00:03:23 Yes.
00:03:24 Praise be to God, I'm healthy.
00:03:25 Praise be to God.
00:03:28 It's like...
00:03:30 Why?
00:03:30 I'm not age-appropriate, right?
00:03:32 It's the same.
00:03:34 Small, cute.
00:03:36 Small is a little bit of a curse.
00:03:38 Dina is small too.
00:03:40 What is this Dina?
00:03:42 Dina, even though you're like this, you're cute.
00:03:44 Cute.
00:03:45 Yes, it's true.
00:03:47 Ouch.
00:03:49 Ouch, Dina.
00:03:51 We haven't seen each other for a month.
00:03:52 We usually joke.
00:03:53 That's right.
00:03:55 So, Kak Ziana, we want to tell you the most exciting, the latest, which is your concert.
00:04:00 Finally, after more than 20 years, you want to do a solo concert.
00:04:05 Yes.
00:04:06 Aren't you nervous?
00:04:07 I'm nervous too.
00:04:08 Before that, Kak G got a lot of offers.
00:04:11 But it's like...
00:04:12 Because there was one time, they wanted to do a concert but it didn't happen.
00:04:17 So, my heart broke.
00:04:19 Ouch.
00:04:19 ♪ ♪
00:04:22 ♪ ♪
00:04:25 So, I was scared.
00:04:27 So, I got another offer.
00:04:28 "Look for someone behind me."
00:04:29 "Oh, no. No, it's too long. No need."
00:04:31 Oh, it's important. You have to do a background check.
00:04:34 Background check.
00:04:35 Police's son.
00:04:35 Police's son.
00:04:36 Police. You know police, right?
00:04:39 How long has his company been?
00:04:41 Wow.
00:04:42 That's right. Those things are necessary.
00:04:43 Very important.
00:04:44 So, I said, "It's okay.
00:04:46 With Allah's blessings, it will definitely happen."
00:04:49 So, praise be to Allah.
00:04:51 You were also invited to work with Anwar Zain Network, Zainazin Network.
00:04:55 I'm so happy.
00:04:57 The best.
00:04:58 You were also a sponsor of CSA Academy.
00:05:00 You were the manager of Altus Pro House.
00:05:03 You also got our MD, Aubrey.
00:05:07 Aubrey Suito.
00:05:09 You also got our production...
00:05:12 What's the name?
00:05:13 Director.
00:05:13 Director.
00:05:14 Jennifer Thompson.
00:05:15 You also got Jennifer Thompson.
00:05:16 Awesome.
00:05:17 We also know that Jennifer Thompson has a superb team.
00:05:20 Superb.
00:05:21 Everybody knows her.
00:05:22 She's the mother of the mother, I think.
00:05:24 Yes, she's the mother of the industry.
00:05:25 Yes.
00:05:26 So, I was like, "Praise be to Allah.
00:05:30 So, when I got the offer, I was like, "How many more months?"
00:05:35 Yes, we were nervous.
00:05:37 Nervous. How many more months?
00:05:40 I had four months to build my stamina.
00:05:46 Okay.
00:05:46 And I memorized the songs, Kak G.
00:05:48 Don't say that we artists remember all the songs.
00:05:52 Sometimes, we forget some things.
00:05:54 Because we artists have a lot of inputs and outputs.
00:05:56 It's hard.
00:05:57 Is that right?
00:06:00 That's right.
00:06:01 That's right.
00:06:03 When there are too many songs, sometimes you sing and suddenly the lyrics cross.
00:06:06 Yes, that's right.
00:06:07 Why is that?
00:06:08 It doesn't count as blank.
00:06:09 While singing, the song itself is blank.
00:06:11 Like, "Eh, we've sung this song thousands of times.
00:06:15 Why is it blank?"
00:06:17 It means our brains are tired.
00:06:19 Yes.
00:06:20 So, we need to have a good stamina.
00:06:25 We need to have a strong memory.
00:06:28 So, we need to eat ginkgo, boba, and many more.
00:06:31 Not boba.
00:06:32 Not boba tea.
00:06:33 It's supplement.
00:06:34 Ginkgo baloba.
00:06:35 Ginkgo baloba.
00:06:36 Ginseng.
00:06:38 Ginseng.
00:06:39 So, now we need to gather our energy.
00:06:41 And we can't be too confident.
00:06:44 If we're too confident, we'll always be in the middle.
00:06:46 And you have to put yourself whereby...
00:06:50 Oh, I'm speaking a bit.
00:06:51 [Laughter]
00:06:54 Whereby, okay, as long as you're young, you have the stamina.
00:06:58 Yes.
00:06:59 So, that is something that I always tell my students.
00:07:03 Don't think that you're 20.
00:07:05 If you're 55 next year, I'll be 56.
00:07:08 I'll be performing at my age, at my energy.
00:07:13 So, you have to put that in your mind and your fans' mind.
00:07:17 Yes, but at the same time, to be 56 years old and still working.
00:07:24 Working.
00:07:25 To work.
00:07:26 Yes, like that.
00:07:27 So, that is a blessing.
00:07:29 A blessing.
00:07:30 A blessing from Allah.
00:07:31 And actually, it's from the fans that give the energy.
00:07:34 And the fans that always pray for us.
00:07:37 That's what makes us where we are today, as Allah's will.
00:07:40 And, what do you say, support from the family, from friends.
00:07:45 That's what's important.
00:07:46 Yes.
00:07:47 Okay.
00:07:47 And that's about the concert.
00:07:48 Yes.
00:07:49 We'll talk about the concert in a bit.
00:07:51 Because this will be broadcast on May 5th, next year.
00:07:56 May 25th, 2024.
00:08:00 Yes.
00:08:00 May 25th, dear.
00:08:02 It's already paid, guys.
00:08:03 It's already paid.
00:08:06 Okay, sis.
00:08:07 Maybe for this celebrity talk, we want to talk a bit.
00:08:10 Yes, yes.
00:08:11 We want to talk.
00:08:12 It's not really the beginning of Zainal Zain.
00:08:14 But, the name Zainal Zain is not something that is easy to do.
00:08:20 That's right.
00:08:21 To survive until now is not something that is easy to survive.
00:08:28 Yes.
00:08:29 So, it must have ups and downs.
00:08:32 There are ups and downs.
00:08:34 Yes, like getting on a ship.
00:08:36 Yes, that's right.
00:08:36 Sometimes, you have to row.
00:08:37 Yes, that's right.
00:08:38 If you sink, you'll just fall.
00:08:39 Yes, that's right.
00:08:40 You have to row.
00:08:42 Yes.
00:08:42 I was looking for the lyrics, but I couldn't find it.
00:08:43 It's been a long break, right?
00:08:45 Wake up, wake up.
00:08:47 But, the question is not about that.
00:08:50 It's not just about the lyrics.
00:08:51 Okay.
00:08:52 The question is.
00:08:53 The question is.
00:08:54 If it's about singing, we know that you started singing when you were young.
00:08:58 You joined this competition.
00:08:59 I want to ask.
00:09:00 When did you start acting?
00:09:02 Oh, Sembilu.
00:09:04 The first film was Sembilu, right?
00:09:04 Sembilu.
00:09:05 If it's Era Fazira, we know.
00:09:06 I guessed Era Fazira's name would come up.
00:09:08 That's why I asked when you missed Era Fazira.
00:09:10 I missed it.
00:09:11 But, Era Fazira.
00:09:12 Dato' Awi brought me in.
00:09:14 Okay, Dato' Awi said.
00:09:16 Dato' Yusof Aslam.
00:09:17 That's all.
00:09:18 I think Era can act.
00:09:20 How about you?
00:09:21 The choice.
00:09:22 Kak Ji got an offer when he did a show in Brunei.
00:09:25 Okay.
00:09:26 And then, I got a call from.
00:09:29 I got a call from Cik Aziz.
00:09:31 He said, "Zainal, Abang Yusof."
00:09:33 "I want you to audition for his film."
00:09:37 "Cik Aziz, I don't have the talent."
00:09:39 "I don't go anywhere to act."
00:09:41 "It's okay, just go, Zainal."
00:09:43 "It's an opportunity."
00:09:44 "Oh, my. Okay, I'll go."
00:09:46 "I'll go to Era, Awi."
00:09:48 Cik Awi has acted before.
00:09:49 Okay.
00:09:50 So, Dato' Yusof said.
00:09:52 "Okay, Zainal. I think I want to take you to act, Dato'."
00:09:55 "Before you lose."
00:09:57 Oh, my.
00:09:59 He really doesn't want to.
00:10:02 "I don't have the talent, Dato'.
00:10:03 "Please, Dato'.
00:10:04 "I don't understand, Dato'.
00:10:05 "I'm embarrassed, Dato'.
00:10:06 "I don't want to trouble people."
00:10:09 Okay.
00:10:11 "You can act."
00:10:14 "Where did you see me acting?"
00:10:17 He's never acted before.
00:10:18 "I've never been to an academy or acted before."
00:10:20 "I know you can act."
00:10:22 "The way you sing, your expression, your soul."
00:10:25 "How did he think of that?"
00:10:27 "And then, Era."
00:10:28 "Era was like..."
00:10:30 "You know what I mean?"
00:10:31 He's new to the scene.
00:10:32 "Era was like, 'Sister, yes.'"
00:10:34 "Okay, we'll start."
00:10:36 "At first, we laughed twice."
00:10:40 How?
00:10:41 "For an hour."
00:10:42 "Then, Yusof was like..."
00:10:44 "I'm regretting it."
00:10:46 You're really regretting it.
00:10:48 "How did you laugh, Yusof?"
00:10:51 "Like this."
00:10:53 "Don't worry, I'll guide you."
00:10:57 "I know what you're like."
00:10:59 "I'm really not regretting it."
00:11:01 "I know."
00:11:03 He was so nervous.
00:11:05 "It's great to be someone else."
00:11:07 "I'm an actor."
00:11:09 You just realized that you're someone else.
00:11:11 "When I think about it now..."
00:11:13 "When I watch the movie, Semilu..."
00:11:15 "One thing that makes me feel so grateful is..."
00:11:21 "The movie helped Kak Ji in her career."
00:11:23 "In the songwriting."
00:11:25 "People know Kak Ji's song better."
00:11:27 "Because there are many songs in the movie."
00:11:29 "In the soundtrack."
00:11:31 "At the same time, I'm so grateful..."
00:11:34 "Because I realized that I can act."
00:11:38 "I'm not someone else, but I can."
00:11:40 "Right?"
00:11:42 "When we look back..."
00:11:44 "When we sit with the kids, they say..."
00:11:46 "Mama, this is how you are."
00:11:48 "Then, they ask, 'Why is your dialogue so funny?'"
00:11:51 "You're quiet."
00:11:54 "Thank you for standing by me."
00:11:57 "I feel..."
00:11:59 "I can do it. I'm glad."
00:12:02 The kids are the problem.
00:12:04 They must watch it.
00:12:06 The comments.
00:12:08 The kids don't understand.
00:12:10 "I'm not the one who wrote the script."
00:12:12 "They'll say, 'Mama, this is how you are.'"
00:12:14 "This is Semilu."
00:12:16 "Mama is evil."
00:12:18 "You're very..."
00:12:20 "No, that's only acting, my dear."
00:12:22 "You're angry at me for not reading the script."
00:12:24 "Mama, how could you do this?"
00:12:26 "It's not a good example."
00:12:28 Acting in real life is a different thing.
00:12:34 But, do you feel like...
00:12:37 ...when you're asked to watch a scene or a dialogue...
00:12:40 ...it's cringey?
00:12:42 Yes.
00:12:43 Do you feel that?
00:12:44 Let me see.
00:12:45 It's okay. I'll watch it.
00:12:47 I'll go to the toilet.
00:12:50 There are many twins.
00:12:52 They have many characters.
00:12:55 When I was carrying her...
00:12:57 ...I was in Majika's film.
00:13:00 Nenek Kebayar.
00:13:02 She has many characters.
00:13:04 They have many colours.
00:13:06 They have many colours.
00:13:08 They're both...
00:13:11 ...detectives.
00:13:13 They're bold.
00:13:15 Back then, they sent her to a school for the blind.
00:13:19 A kindergarten.
00:13:21 A school for the blind.
00:13:23 She said, "Oh my God."
00:13:25 "Oh my God, Mom."
00:13:28 She's very rational.
00:13:29 She's rational now.
00:13:31 Did you have a character that you were like, "Why did I do this?"
00:13:40 Yes.
00:13:41 You had one? -Yes.
00:13:42 What was it?
00:13:44 I was sleeping with Awi.
00:13:47 I had to seduce him.
00:13:49 He was like, "Abang Usop."
00:13:53 He was holding my head.
00:13:54 "Abang Usop, why did you do this to me?"
00:13:56 "Why did you do this to me? I'm dead."
00:14:01 You're not dead. You're still alive.
00:14:05 I wanted to hug Awi.
00:14:08 How did you want to hug her?
00:14:10 How did I want to hug her?
00:14:13 You hugged her.
00:14:15 Why did you hug her?
00:14:17 I wanted to be far away.
00:14:19 "Abang, help me."
00:14:22 You were like this.
00:14:24 "No, I can't."
00:14:26 "No, I can't."
00:14:30 Do you know how cringey it was?
00:14:33 Besides, Ziana and Awi were close.
00:14:37 It was even more cringey.
00:14:40 "Okay, I'll take half of you."
00:14:42 "I can't take the whole body."
00:14:44 You wanted to be in a romantic relationship.
00:14:49 You wanted to seduce him.
00:14:50 You wanted to look at his face.
00:14:51 You laughed.
00:14:53 I told him, "Don't finish my film."
00:14:56 "How did this happen?"
00:14:58 "Look at my ears."
00:15:00 "Are you okay, Awi?"
00:15:01 "I'm okay."
00:15:02 She was sad.
00:15:04 I told him to look at her ears.
00:15:07 "I'm done. Look at my ears."
00:15:10 It was so cringey.
00:15:13 Because of the story, when I was on set...
00:15:16 ...some people said, "You're evil."
00:15:19 "Really?"
00:15:20 "Oh, my God."
00:15:22 "No, it's just a film. Why are you evil?"
00:15:25 "Are you evil now?"
00:15:27 Some people thought that.
00:15:30 But when the film was released...
00:15:34 ...did you have any complaints?
00:15:37 Yes, I did.
00:15:39 "Why are you evil, Janang?"
00:15:42 "I'm just acting in the film."
00:15:45 "That's the reality. You have to understand."
00:15:48 "I'm me."
00:15:50 "That's a film."
00:15:53 We gave forward a bit.
00:15:55 We went to Mariana's.
00:15:57 One or two.
00:15:59 We got the experience to act.
00:16:03 She had short hair.
00:16:05 She was like a goddess.
00:16:07 In the school drama, Kak Ji was put on a pedestal.
00:16:13 Kak Ji was a bit naughty.
00:16:15 Kak Ji was put on a pedestal.
00:16:19 It was fun.
00:16:21 It was fun.
00:16:22 It was a film.
00:16:24 But the film was like...
00:16:26 Be patient.
00:16:29 I had to use a lot of force.
00:16:32 "Why did you buy this dress?"
00:16:35 "Why did you buy this dress?"
00:16:39 "It suits you, Janang."
00:16:42 "It suits you, Mariana."
00:16:46 She was a bit manly.
00:16:48 She was a bit rebellious.
00:16:51 It was shocking.
00:16:53 It was closer to your personality.
00:16:56 It was easier.
00:16:58 Like a tomboy.
00:17:00 Abah said, "You're a tomboy like a tomboy."
00:17:06 "So, you'll get hit when you act."
00:17:08 I understand.
00:17:11 I'm the same.
00:17:13 "Roziana, yes, Abah?"
00:17:19 She said, "Roziana, yes, Abah?"
00:17:22 But her attitude was the same.
00:17:27 She was like, "You're a tomboy, right?"
00:17:30 "You're acting like a tomboy. You're a tomboy."
00:17:34 "You're sitting like a man."
00:17:36 That's why, when we think about it,...
00:17:44 ...like when we're on a show, we have corporates.
00:17:48 They have to behave.
00:17:50 "Okay, next song."
00:17:52 "When are you going to finish this?"
00:17:57 It's like that.
00:17:59 If it's a regular show, they'll be like this.
00:18:01 So, she was like this.
00:18:03 She was so calm.
00:18:05 She had control.
00:18:07 She was so calm.
00:18:09 What are the things we'll see at the 25th concert?
00:18:15 We haven't planned anything yet.
00:18:17 Kak Jid already has something planned.
00:18:21 It's more into, "Who is he?"
00:18:23 "Who are he?"
00:18:25 "Who are you, Roziana?"
00:18:27 But, the best part, Dina,...
00:18:29 ...for Mariana,...
00:18:31 ...let's say, Era Fazira is younger than Kak Jid.
00:18:35 But, Era Fazira is the older sister.
00:18:37 And, Roziana is the younger sister.
00:18:39 How is that?
00:18:41 She's like that because she's the younger sister.
00:18:43 Because, Era is tall.
00:18:46 Kak Jid is short.
00:18:48 And, Era has a character that Abang Usop knows.
00:18:51 He can bring a character that is like Abang.
00:18:54 "Kal, which character is this?"
00:18:56 Like Abang.
00:18:59 Like Abang.
00:19:01 So, far, Kak Jid is good.
00:19:05 He gets to act in films that he likes.
00:19:08 That's great.
00:19:09 It's a blessing. -That's right.
00:19:11 Mariana and Majika are great.
00:19:14 Majika. -Majika Love.
00:19:16 There's one that's a diva.
00:19:18 What is it? -I don't know.
00:19:20 I forgot.
00:19:22 The red one.
00:19:24 The red one is like....
00:19:26 The red one is like....
00:19:29 It's soft.
00:19:33 How long are you going to finish that?
00:19:40 She's running away from the character.
00:19:43 I feel like I'm about to finish it.
00:19:45 When are you going to finish this film?
00:19:47 Films are released during Eid.
00:19:50 That's right. Eid is a repeat.
00:19:52 There's always a Zain Raziel and Awi at Eid.
00:19:54 You've been in a lot of films with Datuk Awi.
00:19:57 Yes, Datuk Awi.
00:19:58 At that time, his album was booming.
00:20:02 Yes, it was a hit.
00:20:04 So, I thought, it's okay.
00:20:06 He helped me out.
00:20:08 That's great.
00:20:10 Was it hard working with Datuk Awi?
00:20:12 No, it was easy.
00:20:13 Recording, songs? -It was easy.
00:20:15 Kak Jid is very grateful...
00:20:17 ...for the opportunity to sing a duet with him.
00:20:22 We wanted to sing so that our partner would give us money.
00:20:25 So, we can count it back.
00:20:27 Kak Jid is a weak person.
00:20:29 If you listen to Kak Jid and Datuk Awi's duet songs...
00:20:33 ...you can't do it.
00:20:39 But, you believe in the energy...
00:20:42 ...that makes the song fresh.
00:20:44 You're still young.
00:20:45 If you get a weak partner, will you be weak?
00:20:48 Yes.
00:20:49 Sometimes, you'll be weak.
00:20:51 We're just ourselves.
00:20:55 Sometimes, I'll secretly give him sugar.
00:20:58 I'll make him hyper.
00:21:00 I'll make him drink coffee.
00:21:02 Sometimes, I won't be able to do it.
00:21:04 Sometimes, we'll be weak.
00:21:06 So, remember, the energy of the partner...
00:21:09 ...is very important.
00:21:11 That's right.
00:21:12 Kak Jid, in terms of songwriting...
00:21:16 ...do you have duet songs with Datuk Awi...
00:21:19 ...or do you have duet songs with other male singers?
00:21:22 We have them now. -You have Haseeb Upe.
00:21:25 Before that, I had a duet with Izzaka...
00:21:27 ...for Kak Jid's second album.
00:21:29 'Hadirmu'.
00:21:31 But, I didn't play that song on the radio.
00:21:34 Who else?
00:21:37 Jad.
00:21:40 Backdoor Bone. -Yes, for the Disney song.
00:21:43 Why do you think you don't have duet songs with male singers?
00:21:49 I don't know. Maybe, at that time...
00:21:52 ...we were in the 90s.
00:21:55 We were solo.
00:21:57 We were solo, but now we have duet songs.
00:21:59 So, there's a trend.
00:22:01 There's a trend. So, we have to follow it.
00:22:04 But, in the same way, from your musical point of view...
00:22:09 ...a powerful singer...
00:22:11 ...can't get the same energy from everyone.
00:22:15 It's hard. -Yes, that's it.
00:22:17 So, if it's Datuk Awi, it can't be him.
00:22:20 Yes, that's right. -To match the energy.
00:22:23 Some people ask, "Why don't you sing with the new singer?"
00:22:27 "Why don't you sing with Datuk Awi?"
00:22:30 "It's Datuk Awi again." -You should give me that.
00:22:33 Give me that. -Give me that.
00:22:35 Why not? Sometimes, new singers like us...
00:22:39 ...can sing with Awi.
00:22:42 I can sing with big stars.
00:22:46 So, new singers... -Give them the feeling.
00:22:49 You can give them the feeling.
00:22:51 If you can carry on, you go.
00:22:53 If you feel you cannot, think twice.
00:22:55 Kak Gigi, that's it. -I understand.
00:22:58 Give people the feeling first. -I understand.
00:23:00 Kakak, congratulations.
00:23:02 The song will be a part of a big competition.
00:23:05 Kak Gigi was shocked.
00:23:07 Why was she shocked? -She said, "Okay, the songs are trending."
00:23:13 "It's okay. I don't have to wait long at the stadium."
00:23:18 "As if Fupeng and Zainal Zain."
00:23:23 "Again?"
00:23:25 "Again?" -My energy is not running out.
00:23:29 Kak Gigi, I'm grateful.
00:23:31 We, the singers in AJL, represent the songwriters and lyricists.
00:23:37 People always think we're the singers.
00:23:41 No. -We're just delivering.
00:23:44 We're just delivering.
00:23:46 But, Kak Gigi, at this age and you've been singing for a long time,...
00:23:52 ...you still want to present and sing.
00:23:56 Some artists are like, "Let's just give it to someone else."
00:23:59 How about you? -I still have the spirit.
00:24:03 I don't know what you think about next year.
00:24:07 I see a new kid. He wants a place.
00:24:12 We were at his place. I feel like, "I can't give him a chance."
00:24:17 We're all the same.
00:24:19 And, Kak Gigi, you got a great song.
00:24:24 People create and put their hopes on you.
00:24:29 So, we're like, "I'm not being fair."
00:24:33 You want a good song, people give.
00:24:35 But, you don't want to represent them.
00:24:37 Kak Gigi is like, "It's okay, I'm proud."
00:24:41 If there's a blessing, she'll be touched.
00:24:44 If there's none, it's not her blessing.
00:24:46 I didn't expect the song to be touched.
00:24:48 When it was, I was like, "Really? What about my shirt?"
00:24:52 I was like, "I'm going to prepare for the concert."
00:24:55 So, I didn't think about it. I just thought about my work.
00:25:00 I was confused.
00:25:02 The money was more confusing.
00:25:04 I was more confused.
00:25:06 It was my first time.
00:25:08 So, I was like, "Is she prepared?"
00:25:11 It doesn't mean that we're good.
00:25:20 No.
00:25:22 At the end of the day, I said, "Okay, I'm responsible."
00:25:26 Yes, you're responsible, blessed, and trustworthy.
00:25:29 I always tell my fans, "Don't think too much.
00:25:33 "Pray for your health.
00:25:35 "May you live long and deliver well. That's enough."
00:25:38 That's what's important.
00:25:40 As an artist, I always think that.
00:25:43 I don't think, "I want to win."
00:25:46 I can perform well that day, I'm fine.
00:25:50 That means you've won.
00:25:54 That's what I think.
00:25:56 Some people will be off-koller.
00:25:58 Some people will be like that.
00:26:00 But I'm not. I'm different.
00:26:02 Everyone is different.
00:26:04 They have different drives.
00:26:06 They have different motivations.
00:26:08 If someone is a creator and a singer, they should have that.
00:26:12 That's right.
00:26:14 I'm a deliverer. As long as I can deliver good, that's enough.
00:26:18 We've talked about concerts and films.
00:26:21 Now, we're going to talk about your career.
00:26:25 Zia Nazin.
00:26:27 This is the same as the one earlier.
00:26:30 The long one.
00:26:32 This is the one.
00:26:34 This is the one.
00:26:36 She was Muka Rima.
00:26:38 I forgot who that was.
00:26:40 You're smart.
00:26:42 You're smart.
00:26:44 You've noted it down before you made a mess.
00:26:46 I forgot.
00:26:48 I've created you.
00:26:50 You're my comrade.
00:26:52 In the entertainment world, many people think that...
00:26:59 ...everyone is beautiful, happy and glamorous.
00:27:03 But the reality is not always like that.
00:27:07 It's not always like that.
00:27:09 Even in the backstreet, there are a lot of screwdrivers.
00:27:13 A lot of sticks.
00:27:15 That shows the metaphor.
00:27:18 Have you had any success in the past 25 years?
00:27:23 35 years.
00:27:25 33 years.
00:27:27 I have a good feeling about this.
00:27:29 My age.
00:27:31 33 years.
00:27:34 I feel that I'm fed up.
00:27:39 First, there's royalty.
00:27:43 Fed up.
00:27:45 You should be more popular.
00:27:47 I understand.
00:27:50 You're out of the frame.
00:27:52 Stand in, Huda.
00:27:54 Then, there's payment.
00:27:57 Payment for every artist.
00:27:59 Let it be.
00:28:01 Don't just get one side because you're a songwriter.
00:28:05 What's the point of being an artist?
00:28:07 You should be equal.
00:28:10 Second, a lot of people are getting paid.
00:28:13 At the end of the day, we get 650.
00:28:15 We're the ones who are left behind.
00:28:17 I understand. -That's what I'm saying.
00:28:19 It's tiring.
00:28:21 Other people are using us.
00:28:23 They get paid and they have their own building.
00:28:26 But we're just a few.
00:28:30 So, people think that artists are just a few.
00:28:35 Sometimes, they're just outsiders.
00:28:37 If they're good at keeping their work, praise be to Allah.
00:28:40 If they're not, what can we do?
00:28:42 Sometimes, our fee is not equal to our work.
00:28:52 Our experience.
00:28:54 Our preparation.
00:28:55 They have to see that.
00:28:57 We, the industry, have to see that.
00:29:00 We shouldn't just give out the fee to outsiders.
00:29:04 We should get first-class services.
00:29:08 But we shouldn't give it to the artists.
00:29:10 That is discrimination.
00:29:13 That has to be corrected.
00:29:18 Zainal Zin will be angry.
00:29:20 She'll say, "I don't have a credit card."
00:29:25 That has to be corrected.
00:29:27 We should always respect our singers.
00:29:31 Don't just pay them a fee because they're old.
00:29:35 There's no new singers.
00:29:37 They're our treasure.
00:29:39 Why do you have to.... -When they're no longer around...
00:29:41 ...you're saying that they're not worth it.
00:29:43 It's tiring.
00:29:45 When they're alive, you don't want to give them a credit.
00:29:48 When they're no longer around, you want to give them a credit.
00:29:50 What do they get? Nothing.
00:29:52 They don't feel that they deserve what they've contributed...
00:29:58 ...for the fans and the community.
00:30:01 For Malaysia.
00:30:03 If you look at it, there are many artists who contributed nothing.
00:30:07 We, as a native, don't think that we should get what we get.
00:30:11 No. At least, there's some sense.
00:30:13 You can give it to outsiders.
00:30:16 What do they have?
00:30:19 They contribute something and they get a lot of things.
00:30:23 We're not...
00:30:28 Are you jealous?
00:30:34 What are you thinking?
00:30:37 Sometimes, we think that we're doing it for our friends.
00:30:40 Not for us.
00:30:42 There are still some things that we should have gotten...
00:30:44 ...but we didn't.
00:30:46 We should have done it for ourselves.
00:30:51 We don't know where we're going.
00:30:55 I'm sorry to say this.
00:30:57 No one wants to help us.
00:30:59 Help us.
00:31:01 We're not international artists.
00:31:07 We're paid well.
00:31:09 Malaysian artists are like farmers.
00:31:15 We're not like international artists.
00:31:17 People don't know that international artists...
00:31:19 ...can make a lot of money.
00:31:22 They're royalties.
00:31:24 One hit wonder.
00:31:26 Because they're big.
00:31:27 We're small.
00:31:28 That's what people don't understand.
00:31:30 People always say that because they're rich.
00:31:33 Do you see that artists have to cover themselves with business?
00:31:38 Do you see?
00:31:40 That's their weakness.
00:31:42 Do you understand?
00:31:43 Do you see the struggle there?
00:31:45 As artists, we always have to portray good and beautiful.
00:31:50 Behind the good and the beautiful...
00:31:53 ...do you know how much a shirt costs?
00:31:55 In the past, you could get RM1,500.
00:31:57 Now, it's RM3,500.
00:31:59 It's just a policy.
00:32:00 If you want to look beautiful, it's RM6,000 or RM7,000.
00:32:02 You have to think about it.
00:32:04 That's why we have to raise the fee.
00:32:06 They have to understand that.
00:32:09 We have to pay the artists, the clothes...
00:32:14 ...and the fee.
00:32:18 The management fee and so on.
00:32:21 Do they understand?
00:32:23 They don't.
00:32:24 I know.
00:32:25 You understand, right?
00:32:27 As artists, we are a brand.
00:32:30 We have to carry the brand.
00:32:33 The brand has to look good.
00:32:36 This year, you're with Turban.
00:32:40 You're with Nefertini.
00:32:42 Nefertini.
00:32:44 Next year, you're thinking about the image you want to create.
00:32:50 Every image we create, we have to invest.
00:32:52 That's right.
00:32:53 People don't know.
00:32:54 Every year, artists have to re-brand themselves.
00:32:58 To maintain their relevance.
00:33:02 In the industry.
00:33:04 The revelance.
00:33:06 The revelance in the industry.
00:33:08 People might think, "Oh, she wears this."
00:33:11 But, from one look, how many brains have been used?
00:33:16 Makeup artists, stylists, and other designers.
00:33:22 You understand or not?
00:33:25 That's why we have to raise the fee.
00:33:28 It's relevant to the current times.
00:33:31 Why do people want us?
00:33:34 Because of our song, Alhamdulillah, Allah Bagi Bakat Lagi.
00:33:37 Because of our look.
00:33:39 We want to see what kind of clothes we'll be wearing.
00:33:44 Because of the investment we made.
00:33:47 That's why people now want to see us.
00:33:52 People don't understand.
00:33:54 When an artist is very self-sufficient,...
00:33:58 ...the brand won't be strong.
00:34:02 It won't have an impact.
00:34:07 It won't have many fans and support.
00:34:11 People still want to see an idol.
00:34:15 To become an idol, you have to make a lot of investments.
00:34:19 It's not easy.
00:34:20 You have to look good all the time.
00:34:22 Even when you go to an interview, you have to invest.
00:34:26 It's not as simple as that.
00:34:29 It's not like, "Okay, what do you have?"
00:34:32 "I'll just do this."
00:34:34 You have to wear a repeat shirt.
00:34:37 Sometimes, we have to wear a repeat shirt.
00:34:40 The repeat shirt is priced at RM8,000.
00:34:43 I have a memory with Ziana Zain.
00:34:49 I was just singing.
00:34:52 It was my first time meeting Ziana Zain.
00:34:56 She was so pretty.
00:34:58 I did my own make-up.
00:35:00 It was a repeat shirt but it was a red one.
00:35:04 How much effort did you put...
00:35:12 ...to make it yourself...
00:35:14 ...so that you can still wear expensive clothes?
00:35:17 To maintain my height and weight.
00:35:21 Sometimes, I want to eat.
00:35:24 But, Kak Ji never let me.
00:35:26 When I was an MCO, I gained 64 kg.
00:35:29 I don't care.
00:35:31 You got a younger sister who always posts pictures of you eating.
00:35:34 She would post pictures of me eating.
00:35:38 She would post pictures of me eating chocolate.
00:35:40 She's a supplier.
00:35:43 She doesn't just supply food physically.
00:35:47 She also supplies pictures on Instagram.
00:35:49 She shares her pictures on Instagram.
00:35:51 Sometimes, we can't speak freely.
00:35:56 Sometimes, I would gain weight...
00:36:01 ...after giving birth.
00:36:03 I would not eat.
00:36:06 I have to restrict myself for my fans.
00:36:09 Sacrifice for my fans.
00:36:12 When I was an MCO, I ate until I gained 64 kg.
00:36:15 I was on a diet.
00:36:17 I was on a diet.
00:36:19 I got a gastric.
00:36:21 It was really bad.
00:36:23 When I went to the doctor, he said that I had a bloated stomach.
00:36:26 I asked him, "Doctor, I can't breathe."
00:36:30 I went to the heart institute.
00:36:32 The heart inspector checked my heart.
00:36:36 The doctor said, "We've done a heart transplant. Do you have a heart attack?"
00:36:40 He had a heartburn. He was on the left side for a week.
00:36:45 He asked, "Is it good or bad news?"
00:36:47 I was not afraid of the bad news.
00:36:49 Which one first?
00:36:51 That's what we don't want to hear.
00:36:53 Bad news first. -Yes, of course.
00:36:56 There's nothing wrong with you.
00:36:58 Good news, doctor.
00:37:01 Your heart is fine.
00:37:03 What happened to me, doctor? -What is it?
00:37:06 What is my feeling?
00:37:08 I think your gastric is bad.
00:37:11 That's why I went to the doctor.
00:37:13 I saw what was happening.
00:37:16 Then, I was fine.
00:37:18 Then, you lost weight.
00:37:22 You ate rice at 2 am.
00:37:25 You were hungry.
00:37:27 But, after the procedure, you were open about it.
00:37:32 I was open. -You were very open about it.
00:37:34 You told me that many artists do it...
00:37:36 ...but they don't admit it or don't want to share it.
00:37:39 You were very open about it.
00:37:41 You shared it. -Why should I lie?
00:37:44 What did I get?
00:37:46 People now know that I cut my stomach...
00:37:49 ...because I was a ZNP.
00:37:51 But, did you have any problems after that?
00:37:57 Alhamdulillah.
00:37:59 I can breathe a bit longer.
00:38:02 I can sing.
00:38:04 Alhamdulillah, I feel healthy.
00:38:06 I'm doing this for myself.
00:38:09 For Kak Ji's children and fans who still want Kak Ji to sing.
00:38:14 I sacrificed myself for you guys.
00:38:16 Get this! -Yes!
00:38:18 React! -You, bro!
00:38:19 I did that for you!
00:38:21 But, it's proven.
00:38:23 This is the perspective of a singer.
00:38:24 When Kak Ji sang with Liza Hanim at CIVI.
00:38:28 She wanted to steal the stage.
00:38:30 She wanted to steal it. -That's right.
00:38:33 It's not because of the weight, it's because of her voice.
00:38:34 The combination of her voice when she sang with her siblings.
00:38:37 She promised to sing with her best friend.
00:38:39 But, the combination of her voice...
00:38:41 ...has improved a lot over the years.
00:38:46 There was a time when Kak Ji came back.
00:38:49 It was true.
00:38:50 After the PKP, she was a bit more relaxed.
00:38:53 She was relaxed because of our gastric problem.
00:38:56 But, now... -Alhamdulillah.
00:38:59 I can do a good spiring.
00:39:01 That's what Kak Ji said.
00:39:03 She can do a good spiring.
00:39:04 When she does a good spiring, we'll clap.
00:39:07 We'll clap.
00:39:11 It's a show, right? -Yes.
00:39:13 I'm nervous. -Don't say that.
00:39:16 You're not nervous.
00:39:18 We'll do a good show tonight.
00:39:20 We'll do a dinner show.
00:39:22 But, I'll be like this.
00:39:25 I'll be like this.
00:39:29 Even though we're competing.
00:39:32 But, if you think about it,...
00:39:34 ...if you help me compete, you won't be nervous?
00:39:38 If anything happens to me, you'll be responsible.
00:39:41 Yes. -I'll be the one to be punished.
00:39:43 That's what I feel. -It's a trust.
00:39:46 People have invited us to give them trust.
00:39:49 But, we can't do this for fun.
00:39:51 You can say it's a hobby.
00:39:54 But, it's not a hobby anymore.
00:39:56 This job is serious.
00:39:58 It's a rice bowl. -That's right.
00:40:00 It's a rice bowl.
00:40:02 We have various social media platforms.
00:40:05 So, the competition is fierce.
00:40:09 It's fierce. -This is a career.
00:40:12 It's a career.
00:40:14 If it's a hobby, you can sing at karaoke.
00:40:17 You can do it on TikTok.
00:40:19 You'll get a gift. -It's serious.
00:40:21 Don't joke around.
00:40:22 There are many who want to sing seriously...
00:40:24 ...but they can't.
00:40:27 So, when you get the gift, you have to sing it seriously.
00:40:29 If you want to sing it seriously, you have to sing it for others.
00:40:32 That's normal.
00:40:34 You're just a singer.
00:40:36 I just sing it because I like it.
00:40:38 Don't sing it because you like it.
00:40:39 You have many composers who ask for songs...
00:40:42 ...in this celebrity world. -I still haven't got one.
00:40:44 But, in your career, have you ever thought...
00:40:50 ...to stop singing, acting, or working in the industry?
00:40:55 Have you ever thought about it? -Have you ever thought about it?
00:40:57 Sometimes, you have a competition.
00:41:01 There are many competitions.
00:41:02 It's like people don't look at us.
00:41:04 Why do people always...
00:41:06 Sometimes, it's not good to have bias.
00:41:09 I think you understand.
00:41:12 Sometimes, we're just here to be remembered.
00:41:19 We're just here to be completed.
00:41:22 We're just here to be remembered.
00:41:25 We know that not only us, but there are others...
00:41:28 ...who sing better but they don't get the award.
00:41:30 Sometimes, we feel like we're not fair.
00:41:36 When we're not fair, we feel lazy to back up.
00:41:39 We feel tired.
00:41:41 But, in my heart, when I have the award, I feel like...
00:41:47 ...I can't let it go.
00:41:52 He wants to go up.
00:41:54 He can't. He's already a grown-up.
00:41:57 He's too slow.
00:41:58 He's already on his feet.
00:42:02 He's just talking.
00:42:05 But, he can't.
00:42:06 He's a love.
00:42:08 If he's not around, you feel like you're dead.
00:42:11 Right? -Yes.
00:42:13 He's passionate.
00:42:15 He's passionate.
00:42:16 It's like a dismal.
00:42:18 We work non-stop from the beginning of December...
00:42:22 ...until now.
00:42:24 But, we're tired.
00:42:28 But, we're passionate.
00:42:30 The drive is different.
00:42:32 Go, go, go.
00:42:34 I don't know.
00:42:36 He's like a burning engine.
00:42:38 Even though, sometimes, the fuel runs out.
00:42:40 He's still burning.
00:42:42 He'll be back in a while.
00:42:43 He'll be back in a while when the fuel runs out.
00:42:45 He'll wake up in the morning and read a message.
00:42:47 'Yom, we're going to release Pukul Selangor in the morning.'
00:42:51 Even though, he worked until the morning.
00:42:55 He'll be like, 'I worked hard yesterday. I'm not going to work today.'
00:43:00 He's like a film.
00:43:04 We make films because....
00:43:06 Kak Ji, don't you have a film?
00:43:08 Because he wants to stop the question.
00:43:10 I understand.
00:43:11 He wants to fill....
00:43:12 He's like Abang Noah.
00:43:13 He doesn't decide anything.
00:43:15 He has a younger sibling.
00:43:17 But, working with the younger siblings...
00:43:19 ...is it easy?
00:43:20 Because, Kak Alin is the one who manages it.
00:43:22 It's easy.
00:43:23 Alhamdulillah.
00:43:24 Even if he wants to scold you, the younger siblings will scold you.
00:43:26 One slap on your face.
00:43:27 He'll be like this.
00:43:30 'My sister is....'
00:43:34 'She's mad at me. Even though, I'm the one who's sulking.'
00:43:37 He's right.
00:43:40 Like Pak Ngah. We call him Abang Noah.
00:43:43 'Jung, are you serious?'
00:43:45 'Don't be mad. It's okay if the younger siblings scold you.'
00:43:48 'We scold him too, right?'
00:43:50 'Are you serious, Jung?'
00:43:51 'Yes, Pak Ngah.'
00:43:53 'Okay, okay.'
00:43:54 He's okay with the king.
00:43:56 This time, for the Gen Azin concert...
00:43:59 ...there are three younger siblings who are involved.
00:44:03 It's fun. -Yes, it's easy.
00:44:05 But, before going to the concert, Kak Ji...
00:44:09 ...are you filming a film?
00:44:11 Filming.
00:44:12 Filming.
00:44:13 Filming.
00:44:14 This is how it is, Kak.
00:44:17 We're filming.
00:44:18 It's hard.
00:44:20 I'm tired.
00:44:23 We're filming Pontianak.
00:44:25 200 Kg.
00:44:26 200 Kg.
00:44:27 I'm not offended by that title.
00:44:30 Why?
00:44:31 Pontianak is 200 Kg. I'm supposed to be in the film.
00:44:34 Pontianak Kenyang.
00:44:35 Pontianak Kenyang.
00:44:36 Doti and....
00:44:38 I forgot the name. -Who is it?
00:44:41 The big black one.
00:44:43 Astaghfirullahalazim.
00:44:47 Tik Tokers?
00:44:49 No. -Ayah.
00:44:51 Ayah!
00:44:52 Ayah, best friend.
00:44:55 He's funny, right?
00:44:57 I have a stomach ache.
00:44:58 Best friend.
00:44:59 He's funny. -He's funny.
00:45:00 He's funny.
00:45:03 Is he the one who's going to be Pontianak 200 Kg?
00:45:06 After that, they...
00:45:08 ...and Ayah...
00:45:09 ...started laughing from afar.
00:45:11 They knew he was coming.
00:45:12 They didn't know what was going on.
00:45:15 They didn't know.
00:45:18 He's funny.
00:45:19 It's happening.
00:45:20 When it's over, they're like...
00:45:21 It's fun.
00:45:25 But Ayah's energy is great.
00:45:27 He's very positive.
00:45:29 He's very sincere.
00:45:31 He's just like Doti.
00:45:33 He's like...
00:45:35 "Do this. Do that."
00:45:38 Is that okay?
00:45:43 We're still filming.
00:45:45 When will it be released?
00:45:47 The filming?
00:45:49 We're still filming.
00:45:51 Maybe next year.
00:45:53 But it's okay.
00:45:55 Kak Ji cameoed.
00:45:56 There were about five scenes.
00:45:59 What did you do?
00:46:00 I was a nurse.
00:46:02 Inside, there was a brain.
00:46:08 He was like this.
00:46:09 He liked it.
00:46:10 He was like this.
00:46:11 He ran away from the concept.
00:46:14 He was like this.
00:46:15 Yes, dear.
00:46:20 Even though we were like this.
00:46:22 It's easier.
00:46:24 He was like this.
00:46:27 He was like this.
00:46:28 But it was fun when he changed.
00:46:32 You didn't expect it, right?
00:46:33 He was a ghost.
00:46:35 You have to see if he's a ghost.
00:46:37 Is he the mother of the mother...
00:46:39 ...or not?
00:46:41 You have to wait for the mother.
00:46:43 Come out.
00:46:44 Mother, mother.
00:46:46 Don't be mother, father.
00:46:47 This is different.
00:46:51 I'm very scared.
00:46:52 Can we stop that conversation?
00:46:54 If there's a mother, there's a father.
00:46:57 Not exactly.
00:46:58 Single mother.
00:47:00 Single mother.
00:47:01 Whatever.
00:47:03 Kak Ji, you cried when you saw the kids...
00:47:10 ...gave a speech at the press conference.
00:47:14 Zainal Zain's concert.
00:47:15 I didn't expect it.
00:47:16 My son said, "Wow, he speaks in London."
00:47:19 He doesn't speak in London?
00:47:22 They're siblings.
00:47:26 You also said, "What are you doing?"
00:47:28 "Are you holding a stick?"
00:47:31 I was touched by the kids.
00:47:35 Our son was still young.
00:47:39 We wanted to pamper him.
00:47:40 I can do that. I'm independent already.
00:47:42 But when I saw the video, the way they spoke...
00:47:47 ...I was shocked.
00:47:48 Really?
00:47:49 They're all grown up.
00:47:52 When I saw the video... -For the last time.
00:47:56 What's wrong with you?
00:48:01 When I saw the video, the way they spoke...
00:48:06 ..."We love you, Ma. Do your best."
00:48:09 But they were just arguing at home.
00:48:12 When I saw it, I was shocked.
00:48:15 We know how much our son appreciates us as a mother.
00:48:21 He understands our work.
00:48:24 That's what I was touched by.
00:48:26 I always say, "You guys..."
00:48:28 They understand when we...
00:48:30 ...when I was doing it with Abang Nua...
00:48:32 ...at the plenary.
00:48:34 We invited the first and second brothers.
00:48:38 When I saw him coming home, I was like, "Oh my God, Ma."
00:48:42 "This is how we work, Ma."
00:48:44 "I don't think I can work like you, Ma."
00:48:48 "You put your energy and your time, Ma."
00:48:51 "Now you understand?"
00:48:53 I was like, "Oh my God."
00:48:55 It's not easy to be a singer.
00:48:57 It's not easy to be a mother.
00:48:59 It's not easy to be a provider.
00:49:01 This is what I have to do.
00:49:03 I have to sacrifice my time.
00:49:05 My me time.
00:49:06 You understand me time?
00:49:08 Of course, the current generation understands me time.
00:49:11 My me time.
00:49:13 My energy.
00:49:15 You see, it's not easy.
00:49:18 I do this because I love my career.
00:49:21 At the same time, I have a big responsibility...
00:49:24 ...towards you guys.
00:49:26 Now you understand?
00:49:28 Whenever I tell you to do this, you don't say no.
00:49:33 You understand?
00:49:34 Like that, Ma. Yes.
00:49:36 You're patient.
00:49:38 You take every opportunity.
00:49:42 Children have to work.
00:49:44 Oh, Mama.
00:49:46 Now you understand.
00:49:48 That's the beauty of a single mother.
00:49:51 When a single mother takes her child to work...
00:49:54 ...she decides if the child can follow her or not.
00:49:56 She doesn't ask for permission from anyone.
00:49:59 It's the same with Jacqueline.
00:50:01 She loves to take her child to work.
00:50:03 When the children see what their mother is doing...
00:50:06 The struggle behind.
00:50:08 Talking about struggle.
00:50:10 Has it been a struggle?
00:50:12 Oh, man.
00:50:13 It started after my divorce.
00:50:18 When I was 50.
00:50:19 Until about 3 or 4 years ago.
00:50:22 I struggled with my MCO.
00:50:24 There's no job.
00:50:25 You have to use your savings.
00:50:29 Oh, my God.
00:50:31 It's hard to work because of COVID.
00:50:35 SOP.
00:50:37 I can't sing.
00:50:39 There's no show.
00:50:40 The industry is closed.
00:50:41 What can we do?
00:50:42 There's savings.
00:50:44 There's no saving.
00:50:46 But, as far as we're concerned, it's okay if we have two children.
00:50:49 I have five children.
00:50:52 I want to feed them, send them to school.
00:50:54 I have to stay at home.
00:50:56 I have to buy a laptop for them.
00:50:58 I have to buy a laptop for four of them.
00:51:00 Oh, my God.
00:51:04 She heard how bad Kak Ji was.
00:51:07 Kak Ji's gut. Kak Ji's gastric.
00:51:09 At that time, Kak Ji could only depend on Allah.
00:51:12 'O Allah, You're the One who gives me and my children.
00:51:15 You never neglect Your people.
00:51:18 You give the blessings to my children.
00:51:21 I believe that every human being has their own blessings.
00:51:24 I just know that it's fast or slow.
00:51:27 But, I'm confident in You, O Allah.
00:51:30 You're the One who holds my life, my livelihood and my children.
00:51:34 O Allah, please help me.'
00:51:36 That's all Kak Ji could say.
00:51:38 'O Allah, I have no more effort.
00:51:41 There's no one I can ask but You, O Allah.
00:51:44 You're the One who holds everything.
00:51:46 You're the One who's great and the Greatest.
00:51:48 Please help me, O Allah.'
00:51:50 Every time. That's all Kak Ji could say.
00:51:52 Of course, we say that we don't ask for blessings, but we don't get them.
00:51:57 I'm grateful that my parents always pray for me.
00:52:01 It's also a prayer from my parents.
00:52:03 And I got to act in a drama.
00:52:06 I acted in a drama.
00:52:08 That's when I thought, 'That's the one.'
00:52:11 'In the past, I used to say to my parents, 'Can I act?'
00:52:15 'This is the way to help me.'
00:52:17 Allah has arranged the path for you.
00:52:20 I said, 'O Allah, You're the Greatest.'
00:52:23 I'm grateful.
00:52:25 Kak Ji always taught us, every time we wanted to sit down, we'd pray.
00:52:30 After eating, we'd pray.
00:52:32 So, we became a habit.
00:52:34 Before, we'd pray and be grateful.
00:52:36 After that, we'd be grateful.
00:52:38 And every time, whatever you get, whether it's a show or whatever, you don't ask for it.
00:52:44 Even though sometimes you get a job, you don't ask for it.
00:52:47 If you're in prayer, it's even better.
00:52:49 You're grateful, 'O Allah, thank You.
00:52:52 You gave me the sustenance, O Allah.'
00:52:54 And remember, whatever you give, it doesn't matter.
00:52:58 If you can give to humans, then give to humans.
00:53:00 If you can give to animals, then give to animals.
00:53:02 And Kak Ji is a cat lover.
00:53:05 Just like my sister.
00:53:07 So, if someone has a cat, it's automatic?
00:53:14 Yes.
00:53:15 Right?
00:53:17 If I have a cat, I'll be like a Chinese.
00:53:20 That's so weird.
00:53:24 Now we know that you're not an original Chinese.
00:53:27 So, I'll make sure that I have a bag of food.
00:53:34 I have a plate, wet food and dry food.
00:53:37 If I find it, I'll give it to them.
00:53:40 And I've been doing this since I was young.
00:53:43 When I first started singing, I couldn't swallow food.
00:53:48 I felt like I was going to remember it.
00:53:50 I felt guilty.
00:53:51 I would order fish, even if it's just one fish.
00:53:54 A catfish is RM5.
00:53:56 I would see how much it was, I would order it.
00:53:58 I would mix it with rice first.
00:54:00 I would give one by one, then I could eat it.
00:54:03 If I couldn't, I couldn't swallow it.
00:54:05 That's me.
00:54:07 That's a cat lover.
00:54:09 That's right.
00:54:10 But, yes, I've seen that the more you give,...
00:54:14 ...not just to people, but to animals,...
00:54:17 ...they would say, 'You're so generous, Allah.'
00:54:20 They would be grateful.
00:54:21 They would pray for you. -That's right.
00:54:24 Even though we don't understand their prayers,...
00:54:26 ...we don't hear them.
00:54:27 But, we're ready to listen to Allah.
00:54:29 The khaji said, 'Allah, it's true.
00:54:32 'My mother and father taught me this.
00:54:35 'My parents are people who like to give.'
00:54:38 So, praise be to Allah, what they taught us, they taught us.
00:54:43 And this has been passed down to the khaji.
00:54:46 Kak, 25th May 2024 is a very important date for Ziana Zin.
00:54:52 That's right.
00:54:53 How long has it been since your last concert?
00:54:56 Around that.
00:54:58 Solo.
00:54:59 I would like to know why the date is 25th May.
00:55:02 25th May is a coincidence.
00:55:05 It's the only place that was empty after Eid.
00:55:10 We wanted to do it before Eid.
00:55:13 Before February.
00:55:14 But, it was full.
00:55:16 Too many people said there was no place.
00:55:18 So, on the 25th...
00:55:20 ...at the Mega Star Arena.
00:55:24 The Mega Star Arena.
00:55:25 The Mega Star Arena is the only place available.
00:55:27 So, the khaji said, 'It's okay. We'll go for it.'
00:55:29 'We can wait for a while.'
00:55:31 So, we went.
00:55:32 Kak Ji was there.
00:55:34 So, Kak Ji said, 'Okay, we'll lock it...
00:55:36 ...because we want to meet our fans.'
00:55:38 It's okay. People have finished Eid.
00:55:41 They've fasted.
00:55:42 They've saved up.
00:55:43 That's right. They've got their Eid money.
00:55:45 They were about to buy tickets at the last minute.
00:55:47 But, the tickets were already sold out.
00:55:49 It was 15th May.
00:55:51 Kak Ji did a early PC...
00:55:55 ...so that the fans can save up.
00:55:57 Our fans came in many classes.
00:56:01 B40, B20, BMW.
00:56:05 That's not true.
00:56:07 So, we have to consider all of that.
00:56:10 So,...
00:56:12 ...we can save up more.
00:56:16 We can understand how people used to live.
00:56:18 They worked as a carpenter.
00:56:20 They were about to buy Vinci shoes.
00:56:24 It was RM9.90.
00:56:26 We can understand.
00:56:29 We understand.
00:56:30 So,...
00:56:31 Yes, there were many.
00:56:33 Why didn't I work?
00:56:35 I was just a carpenter.
00:56:37 So, you can buy tickets for the concert at www.tickettoyou.com.my/ziannazin
00:56:51 Yes.
00:56:52 What was the price?
00:56:54 It was from RM2.88 to RM4.88.
00:56:56 RM6.88 and RM8.88.
00:56:58 I don't know.
00:56:59 You can check it out.
00:57:00 It's on the website.
00:57:01 It's on the website.
00:57:02 It's returned to you.
00:57:04 So far, the RM2.88 is sold out.
00:57:06 The first day is sold out.
00:57:07 Praise be to God.
00:57:09 It's picking up.
00:57:10 It means there will be an audience for this concert.
00:57:12 Praise be to God.
00:57:13 It's sold out.
00:57:14 It's sold out.
00:57:15 How many songs will be performed?
00:57:19 Of course, there will be more than 20 songs.
00:57:22 Because this concert is about Kak Ji.
00:57:26 It's about Kak Ji's life.
00:57:28 And then, Kak Ji's mental and stamina.
00:57:35 And his memory.
00:57:37 He has to eat a lot of...
00:57:39 Ginkgo balobong.
00:57:40 Ginkgo balobong.
00:57:41 Fish oil.
00:57:43 We have to prepare all of those.
00:57:46 And Kak Ji has to be mentally prepared.
00:57:49 And energy is the most important.
00:57:51 Yes.
00:57:52 Okay.
00:57:53 Will there be a surprise?
00:57:54 Do you want to invite Bang Noah to perform?
00:57:57 Do you have a plan?
00:58:00 I don't know.
00:58:01 Bang Noah has an organiser.
00:58:02 He said, "Let's come and see you sing."
00:58:05 Yes, let's see you sing.
00:58:09 I'm so nervous.
00:58:11 Even though...
00:58:14 I'm just kidding.
00:58:16 Kak Ji went to Bang Noah's concert.
00:58:19 When he came back, did he say anything?
00:58:21 "You sang this song, but it wasn't good."
00:58:24 He said, "It wasn't healthy."
00:58:25 He said, "It was protective."
00:58:27 Did you have any other concerns?
00:58:30 "Why did you sing that part differently?"
00:58:33 He didn't condemn you, but he commented.
00:58:35 He asked me, "Yum, was it okay?"
00:58:39 "There was a bit of a problem with the quality."
00:58:41 "It's not good. I know."
00:58:43 "I want to push it. It's too hard."
00:58:44 "Okay, we're singers. We understand."
00:58:46 That's how it is.
00:58:48 But we're siblings.
00:58:49 We're very open-minded.
00:58:51 Like his partner, from head to toe.
00:58:53 When you go out, you have to do this.
00:58:55 You have to do this.
00:58:57 Pak Ngah, you can't wear heavy clothes.
00:58:59 You have to find the right material.
00:59:03 You have to look like this.
00:59:04 Do you see this look?
00:59:06 That's great!
00:59:09 He still shares his clothes and make-up.
00:59:13 This type of style.
00:59:14 This is the style.
00:59:16 You have to do this.
00:59:17 He's like his father.
00:59:19 He's a perfectionist.
00:59:21 He's a perfectionist.
00:59:23 That's scary.
00:59:27 He hangs out with me.
00:59:29 We just hang out.
00:59:30 He said he's prepared.
00:59:32 Sometimes, we just hang out.
00:59:34 He's always ready.
00:59:35 Of course.
00:59:36 He's always ready.
00:59:37 That's Pak Zin's grooming.
00:59:39 Pak Zin is like that too.
00:59:41 He's Pak Zin's photostat.
00:59:43 He's well-prepared.
00:59:44 I remember Pak Zin's make-up was on me for five years.
00:59:49 He's a womanizer.
00:59:50 Yes, he is.
00:59:51 He sees his son as a man.
00:59:53 Pak Zin is worried.
00:59:58 He's worried.
00:59:59 In Melaka, you're like a horse.
01:00:02 You're a womanizer.
01:00:05 You're a womanizer.
01:00:08 We're used to grooming.
01:00:11 When we go out for Eid, Pak Zin's son will be at Kampung Melayu Subang.
01:00:15 He'll be wearing a kurung on the first day.
01:00:17 He'll be wearing a buria.
01:00:18 He'll be wearing a pair of buria.
01:00:21 He'll be wearing a skirt on the second day.
01:00:23 On the third day, he'll be wearing a cover.
01:00:26 He'll be wearing a gown.
01:00:28 Pak Zin will be sewing and buying fabric.
01:00:31 Pak Zin's son will be wearing a handbag with orange feathers.
01:00:37 He'll be wearing lipstick.
01:00:39 He'll be wearing lipstick.
01:00:41 He'll be wearing a white handkerchief.
01:00:45 Why is it white?
01:00:46 He'll check if it's a lipstick or not.
01:00:50 No.
01:00:52 He'll be wearing a dab lipstick.
01:00:55 He'll be wearing a dab lipstick.
01:00:57 When he comes home, he'll be like this.
01:01:00 He'll be a woman.
01:01:04 That's so detailed.
01:01:06 He'll be a woman.
01:01:08 He's a man of his word.
01:01:13 So, Pak Zin will have two daughters.
01:01:16 No, three daughters.
01:01:18 Three daughters.
01:01:22 But, Kak Alin and Kak Zana will be the ones he'll know.
01:01:24 And there's one more.
01:01:26 Kak Alwin.
01:01:28 But, the one he'll know the most is a man.
01:01:31 Where did you buy this?
01:01:36 You're wearing the same one.
01:01:38 You're wearing the same one as me?
01:01:40 It's okay.
01:01:41 We look alike.
01:01:43 Kak Alin is fierce.
01:01:46 We were born with the 'go, go, go' attitude.
01:01:51 Even if there's no man at home, we'll manage the house.
01:01:55 But, back to the surprise.
01:01:59 Who do you want?
01:02:03 I'll name my daughter.
01:02:06 You're so funny.
01:02:09 We'll see along the way.
01:02:12 We'll see.
01:02:16 But, it's part of the plan.
01:02:18 I'm trying to correct it.
01:02:20 But, it's okay. We'll try again.
01:02:23 We'll try again on the 4th.
01:02:25 Before we close, after the concert, people always ask...
01:02:33 ...about the three best songs of Zana Zain.
01:02:36 I want to ask. I'm not trying to belittle you.
01:02:41 But, the three best songs of Zana Zain...
01:02:44 ...that you'd avoid if you could.
01:02:47 The ones that I wouldn't sing?
01:02:49 Because they're all high notes.
01:02:51 There are high notes and fast notes.
01:02:53 I had to do it.
01:02:58 You had to.
01:03:00 The history of Putut Tepaksa is where you used to...
01:03:05 ...do the demo.
01:03:07 You'd send the guitar and record the song.
01:03:12 But, you'd take the feel.
01:03:14 How did I do that? -That's how kids are now.
01:03:18 I remember we changed the key.
01:03:22 I sang Putut Tepaksa with the male key.
01:03:25 So, it's higher? -Yes!
01:03:30 It's higher.
01:03:32 The male key has a lower voice.
01:03:35 We used to use the -1 key.
01:03:38 Now, we don't use it anymore.
01:03:40 The company used to record it.
01:03:45 I'd get a sore throat every time I sang.
01:03:48 I'd have no voice.
01:03:49 I'd get worried.
01:03:50 I'd go to the doctor and he'd say, "You've strained your vocal cord."
01:03:53 I'd say, "What song am I singing?"
01:03:57 He'd say, "Oh, I noticed."
01:03:59 So, Putut Tepaksa can be heard.
01:04:02 But, you have to lower the key to a comfortable key...
01:04:05 ...so that you don't strain your vocal cord.
01:04:07 Otherwise, your vocal cord will be damaged.
01:04:09 That's right.
01:04:10 I didn't understand it before. Now, I do.
01:04:12 But, that song is popular.
01:04:17 That song is a feel.
01:04:19 I like that song too.
01:04:20 If someone asks me to sing, I'll try to sing a capella.
01:04:25 Or, if there's a band, we can control the key.
01:04:30 If it's -1,...
01:04:32 We'll cancel your show tomorrow.
01:04:40 We'll sleep tomorrow.
01:04:42 That's the first thing.
01:04:44 What's the next song?
01:04:46 The next song?
01:04:48 Oh, God.
01:04:49 Is it okay?
01:04:50 If it's not good, it's Allah's blessing.
01:04:53 Sometimes, I wonder if I should sing this song.
01:04:56 Mada Behela.
01:04:58 It's not that I don't like it.
01:05:00 But, when we get the chance, we'll sing it.
01:05:03 We'll sing three songs.
01:05:05 Three songs.
01:05:07 We don't know what to sing.
01:05:09 What's the next song?
01:05:10 Mada Behela, Angga Pamu, Pujak Kasih.
01:05:12 We'll go back to Mada Behela.
01:05:15 There are many other songs.
01:05:17 There are many more.
01:05:18 It's like we're eating fried rice every day.
01:05:23 It's not that it's not good.
01:05:24 It's like a signature dish.
01:05:26 Kak Ji will say, "Acu, can you ask the client to select an English song?"
01:05:31 "A different song."
01:05:33 "Yom, she wants your song."
01:05:35 That's so simple.
01:05:40 You're helping your sister.
01:05:42 No.
01:05:43 I'm just being brave.
01:05:46 She's the CEO of Minta.
01:05:49 She's bragging.
01:05:53 I think I've sung this song more than 10 times this month.
01:05:59 Yom, this is your song.
01:06:04 She's a real singer.
01:06:08 It's like this.
01:06:11 "Well, guys, I don't know how many times I've sung this song."
01:06:16 "If you ask me, what can I do?"
01:06:19 "Well, come, we'll sing along."
01:06:22 She's done it.
01:06:24 Dato' Syirah Majid and Syirah Rantun Dinah have done it several times.
01:06:29 They want to change it to Minus One.
01:06:30 Do you know what to do?
01:06:32 That's what Kak Ji does.
01:06:35 The last one.
01:06:38 You had to do another song with Mada Behela.
01:06:41 Anggapanmu.
01:06:43 Because the song is difficult.
01:06:45 Kak Ji has made a new arrangement.
01:06:47 Is it difficult?
01:06:49 No, it's not.
01:06:50 The new arrangement is okay.
01:06:52 It's comfortable.
01:06:53 It's a bit modern.
01:06:54 I understand.
01:06:55 I haven't asked for it yet.
01:06:56 You're asking for it.
01:06:58 Sometimes, I don't know what to do.
01:07:01 I'll do a medley with Mada Behela and Anggapanmu.
01:07:06 We'll do a medley with Mada Behela and Anggapanmu...
01:07:09 ...so that you can sing another song.
01:07:11 Come on.
01:07:12 They want Mada Behela to sing one song...
01:07:14 ...and Anggapanmu to sing another one.
01:07:16 The truth is, there's a hit song.
01:07:20 But, thank God, that's the song they like.
01:07:24 And it's today.
01:07:26 That's all we want to wish for.
01:07:30 May you be healthy.
01:07:31 May your concert be a success.
01:07:35 Amen.
01:07:36 I hope you're doing well.
01:07:38 Thank you for today. -Thank you.
01:07:40 Finally, we got a singer!
01:07:42 Yes, with Kak Ji today.
01:07:44 Bye, everyone!
01:07:46 Bye!
01:07:48 To be continued...
01:07:52 To be continued...
01:07:55 (thudding)
