Ahlam got crazy over KFC on Arab Idol last night. I don’t know what was going on in her head at the time, but that KFC rant was bizarre. Almost as bizarre as watching Mohammad Moneer sing last night. He looked drugged out of his head. And Ahlam looked lunatic shouting for some KFC.

I can’t slide like that, not even on solid ground, let alone dance. Or maybe I can, if I was on an ice rink trying to gracefully stop my fall.
Got to admit though, he’s good.

A group of young Kuwaiti students in the States are doing a series of “How to Cook”, aimed towards helpless young dudes who know nothing about cooking delicious Kuwaiti dishes. The cooking is not that professional, but I can totally see how our kids (guys and girls) can tremendously benefit from them. They’re sloppy and fast, filmed with humor and a tiny bit of attention; but they get the dish done.
I’ve posted the video of chicken machboos, here are a few more links to some other dishes:
If you’re a Kuwaiti stuck abroad and don’t know how to cook a Machboos or Marag, then these videos are totally for you.
You can follow them on twitter @Ma6ba5iBgorbti and on youtube @Ma6ba5i.
Thank you Fahad Al-Ghaith and Ahmad Al-Jna3i for your efforts. You totally rock.
Note to Fahad & Ahmad: I tried replying back by email, but I just got a delivery error back. Here’s my thank you email to you:

John Maucere performed a sign langage translation of Alecia Keys’ national anthem show at yesterday’s SuperBowl. I don’t know if all this was sign language, but he sure added a lot of awe to the translation. Respect. And btw, he’s deaf too. So double Respect.
Forget about all the players, the commercials, the Beyoncé, because John Maucere is already the best part of the Super Bowl. Maucere was on hand to sign the songs “America, The Beautiful” and “The Star-Spangled Banner” with more emotion than Jennifer Hudson, Alicia Keys, and the Sandy Hook Elementary School Choir, combined. With a flair for high-drama comedy that only a bona fide Steve Carrelldoppleganger could muster, Maucere ushered in the patriotic tunes with the bounce and beauty of a North Dakota-based community theater troupe. And it was glorious [link].

The latest Amazing and Mr. Spiderman Andrew Garfield turned out to be a great dancer, and super light on his feet. He did like 10 different dances in less than a minute, and almost all of them were pretty damn well.

I came by this guy by accident, when I posted before a vid of the Dark Knight Rises alternate endings (the real stops at which the movie could’ve\should’ve really ended). I got a vid reply comment from a young Kuwaiti, who made a critic of it.
I honestly was fascinated by his review, and thought he sounded very professional (way more professional than the way we bloggers write a review). I even learned a few new things about the movie (like how it really wasn’t an Imax at all, it barely had 15 whole minutes in the whole movie), and how it subliminally resembles Inception.
This young Kuwaiti, I’m assuming a teenager to late teenager, is named Jack Al-Mazeedi. He’s got a good future ahead of him if he keeps doing reviews like these. He might even get his own TV or radio show. He also does reviews of musical albums, random tech stuff (like laptops and games), and important sporting events.
Check out his youtube channel [link]. He’s done The Dark Knight Rises, The Avengers, Men in Black III, and a whole lot more.
