In pursuit of stardom
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 08/07/2015
» The popularity of the first season of the Mint and Mew mini series led to its second installation of Mint and Mew To be Continued. In a nutshell, it's a comedic story of a gay man who falls in love with a very straight man. Ben Chalatid and Somchai Khemklad play the lead characters of lovesick gay man and ultra macho object of desire respectively. The second mini series has obviously picked up on the success of its precedent's over-the-top delivery as it has doubled the campy dosage.

Soundtrack to a generation
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 04/06/2015
» I still remember the day Bodyslam walked into the Post's offices to promote their eponymous debut album in 2002. I was a rookie, and so were Artiwara Kongmalai, Tanadol Changsawek and Rattapol Phanchet. As I recall, they were awkward, gangly and didn't quite grasp the entire concept of a press tour. They were young men who had recently given up careers (in more respectable fields) to pursue their musical dreams. In retrospect, all the fidgeting and slight cockiness was well placed and self explanatory.

Mariah who-cares-y?
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 04/11/2014
» As one of the most memorable and praised pop vocalists of her time, there's no denying that Mariah Carey's vocal prowess is second to none, with her ability to go beyond the seventh octave and her signature whistle register. When at the top of her game, Carey's sense of pitch and acrobatic whispery vocals are revered, and have given pop music a new sense of entitlement.

We catch up with a trio of young street artists, who have all credited MMFK as their influence, but who're also bursting with colour and a style of their own

Ice, ice Mickey
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 08/04/2014
» All things Disney have dominated the psyche of children around the world ever since Mickey Mouse popped up in black and white. Little girls, especially, still dream of becoming Disney princesses despite finger-waving warnings and criticisms of gender stereotyping and not-so-subtly hidden chauvinistic values. As much as you try to shun your young ones from forming unrealistic ideas of relationships through these old-time cartoons and steer them, if they insist, toward newer Disney works like Toy Story or Frozen, the unexplainable need for fluffy romance seems to persist, even in grown women.

The 'bad boy' of rock art
Life, Onsiri Pravattiyagul, Published on 27/11/2013
» It's very easy to see why people are so taken with Chanon Yodhong. As the sole art director for Genie Records under GMM Grammy, Chanon, 32, works closely with the likes of Bodyslam, Big Ass and Cocktail, a few of Thailand's biggest rock bands, and also holds strong personal relationships with these musicians, which pushes him, reluctantly, under the spotlight.
