The Bling factor!
The Bling! event had been the talk of the zone the past few weeks, and Part One of two awesome Bling! experiences was held on 8 November, Saturday, at Riverwalk.
Members and friends came dressed in their very best, to add to the razzle-dazzle of Bling! And with the ‘Best Dressed Cell Group’ title up for grabs, the various cell groups really cracked their brains to come out with the most creative Cg identity. From outfits made of shiny CDs to masquerade masks and cool scarfs, it was truly a fashion bonanza!
Specially invited to host this first-of-its-kind event were Kids Central hosts Primero and Candice and they definitely stirred up the crowd with their enthusiasm.
Bling! started off with a beatbox performance, followed by our very own ET Zone dance item. Though it was our dance team’s debut performance, they brought down the house with their funky hip-hop moves.
There were also fun segments such as our very own version of popular Taiwanese host Jacky Wu’s variety game show, ‘Guess Who?’. A total of 4 contestants went up each round and we had to guess, according to categories given such as the best limbo-rocker, the national skipping champion, the real from the fakes. Some of the fakes were so convincing they fooled us all!
A huge highlight of Bling! was the makeover session for 3 lovely ladies, Celine, Xiao En and Lijun. When each of the models sashayed down the “runway” in their new hairdo, makeup and eye-catching outfits, all their cell group members could not recognize them! Kudos to the make-up artists, Iris, Michele and Joycelyn who transformed them from ordinary to really ‘Bling Bling!’
The event was truly a success! It showcased the immense talents and abilities of our members and how creatively colourful we all can be.
Part Two of Bling! is happening this coming Saturday, 15 November, at Riverwalk and is all set to be even more exciting! Continue to invite your friends, and show them that Christians are a cool bunch of people too!
Comments from participants of Bling!
“Bling! is special because we get to see another side of our members when they really dress up! The games were fun and helps to bond the cg and our zone together!”
Alfred Leow (E462)
“This event shows our friends that it’s not just about reading the Bible, praying, but using our talents to shine for God and to learn new things as well. Even if one can’t dance, being willing does it!”
Ravi Rayan (? – one of the Bling! dancers)
