Anyhoo, Chris, Jit, Nick, Shalu and I found ourselves at the studio of NTV7/TV3/8TV on a Thursday morning, all prepared and ready for the cameras, or so we thought.

First things first, make-up was essential and the crew wasted no time in getting us all prepped-up. Though I must admit that brushing on some powder and calling it “make-up”, doesn’t really, well, sound like “make-up” to me.

Guildenstern Gets Made Up

Following that, we were ushered into the booth where the interview takes place. And I got a microphone set with no handle to attach it to my belt. No biggie!

At 8.15am, our interview officially commenced and all was going well until, I was halfway describing the characteristics of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern when I uttered “crazya*s”. *Dum Dum Dum* Big mistake. Funny, but nevertheless an obvious flaw in what would have been an awesome interview. I could swore the words just flew outta’ my mouth!

Well, too late to do anything now, I guess. No use crying over spilled milk, eh?
