Dasmond And The Aunties
Greetings and salutations, fellow stargazers! This is May Seah, your Showbiz Sista, with the shocking news that Dasmond Koh is now fraternizing with aunties. Yes, it’s aunties galore in the new variety show that Dasmond hosts along with Quan Yifeng, Housewives Pte Ltd, which premieres October 5.
Is Dasmond the unsuspecting prey of heartland cougars? Does he prefer older women?
No, lah. He and Quan Yifeng merely help them make the most of themselves. The programme assists housewives in starting their own small businesses such as a petsitting service, a marketing service and a party planning business, so they can use their free time to earn extra cash. You go, aunties!
“We saw a lot of different kinds of aunties, from the really down-to-earth type to the flamboyant type,” said Dasmond. “There are people who are really very shy, they dare not talk, they always whisper and you can’t get their voices down on tape, to those that can showcase whatever they want.” Well, it just goes to show that you can’t keep a good auntie down.
So, did the aunties think Dasmond was cute? Is he popular with the housewives? “I don’t think so!” Dasmond protested. “I think my followers should be tertiary students; youngsters. Because I used to be from radio. The aunties might think that I’m okay, lah!”
Making sure the aunties don’t rip Dasmond’s clothes to shreds is his close pal Yifeng. In their own time, they play badminton and go diving together, and talk about their problems—but things weren’t always this way. The first time Dasmond worked with Yifeng, “She was like, the don’t-know-how-to-handle type, because of her image. I was thinking I didn’t know how to handle her. She’s fast and furious! But she can really try to be compatible with whoever she’s working with so that I don’t outshine you and you don’t outshine me.” Guess Yifeng handles smoothly now.
Catch Housewives Pte Ltd starting October 5, Mondays at 8pm on MediaCorp TV Channel 8. Showbiz Sista, signing out. Live long and pop corn!
