Chanlekkana is not a singer....she's not even really an actress....her job is to look pretty in karaoke videos.

regardless of whether or not ya'll care for the way nop bayarith looks like.....you can't deny that he has a wonderful voice.....and by the way....nearly ninety percent of the cambodian population is mixed with chinese/indian/vietnamese...menikani....you're not pure yourself so shut up.

well here's whats on my list... with pic...

for comedien
ney Kuy and [VangDoer (or ney 22)--don't count him, he's gone]. Why???? every time i laugh, it add one year to my life.

for singer
Ms. Hum Syvon and SiThol. Why???? they the one who remind all Khmer, that their culture and tradition never die in a form of traditional music. They remind us we are original, we are Khmer.

There are many many more.

oooppp i allow to choose one person only right!?

Naw naw, you guys lets not put celebrities from Sok Khmer. Lets put Prach a rapper in LBC. Hes trying to get his name out there. I think we should put him as Asia Finests celebrity. Just check out his songs and his page.

His song is on my topic, click the link and check it out

hey, yah i agrees.

Definitely Kung Nai, the amazing blind charpei dong veng player who lives in the Tonle Bassac.

Looks very like Ray Charles as well!!!

I'd agree though on Prach. He's a good guy and a great role model. I've seen him work in PP and he's great with children but also respects elder people too.

BB

the problem with us khmer is that if your skin is not dark or if your eye look like geicko's eye. you are not khmer. this must change. if you are born in cambodia. you are khmer. agree? it s hard to find pure khmer today.

Duch Sophea of course! She's absolutely drop dead gorgeous and has a little bit of a fiesty attitude which makes her unique. Suvanant Kongying (Thai actress) can't top Duch Sophea .

Duch Sophea

should it matter at all if you're ethnic chinese? he sings in cambodian, his name is cambodian, yet he's still chinese? I think if you're cultured in cambodian to the full where you forget your langauge and have no ties to your country of origin, you are no longer considered what your country of origin is . .. culture is more important than blood, and it's unfair to say he's not cambodian, even if he does look chinese.

My vote is preap sovat!!! he got me into khmai music at it's all time lowest and lamest and made cambodian songs listenable for me. so he definately needs a spot ..



exactly, which goes back to my statement again - culture is more important than race or bloodline .. i assure you this, finding a pure ethnic khmer is almost impossible -- cause almost everyone who's khmai that i know has some or little of chinese blood or others -- that alone makes them unpure khmer .. so get it straight, if you're born and cultured in cambodian culture, you are khmai.

Right on bro! Well said. And yeah, preab sovat did got me into khmer music, but that was way back when.

yeah, but how do you pronounce his name? is it like..prahh, as in money or something different?

I agree totally with your statement, Cambodia needs unity not division..... and about Preap Sovat also.

so... nobody cares about cambodian celebs being featured anymore or what?

Sok Sophea for the win.

I want Sok Sophea for Male and Veth Rathana for girl.

I think the admin forgot about us.

hopefully dara can be modded any day now and he can probably tell ben

MEY BUN!!

a cambodian/american model! should feature her on the site and give her some recognition!

http://spam.net/index.htm

Preap sovat!!! nob bayarith, and sok sophea

How about Madidada? He is on the top of the Charts in Cambodia and, Overseas people adore him. Not only that he writes his own music. And his voice is also amazing!

Music and singing is an art form. Good, bad or ugly is rather subjective, not factual. Each singer represent a different spectrum. I wouldn't resort to knocking one to promote the other, it's preference. Some people like choked chicken.

Preach on brotha, you make a lot of sense.

dear BEN, please feature Preap Sovath as a cambodian star on AF.com .. he's so popular, he toured the US and expects to make a comeback

I nominate the Khmer rapper name "PRACH". Does anybody here know him or heard of him.

^yes. he has good lyrics, but not the voice for it IMO.

how amny times has dengue fever been mentioned? i want dengue fever to be on AF

^ are you responding in the right thread?

I heard one of his song on NPR News and it captivated me. I agreed with you about his voice but I like it. I preffered a genuine artist with lousy voice than a bunch of parrots/copy cats with beautiful voice. I think its just me.

I dislike gangsters

Thanks for sharing, LUNG

it's AF's 3rd year of running and still no khmer celebs?


lets nominate tony jaa

I support that motion, however you will have a contoversy in the house. Unless you like controversy?

^ nope, tony jaa's controversy has been beaten to death already. he really should be nominated as a thai celeb .... honestly ..

i think we should nominate that guy who won a grammy for the killing field movie -- forgot his name

^the late Dr. Haing S. Ngor

Yes... Tony Jaa as Khmer...

And Sin Sisamout...

And Late Preap Sovath.

I nominate sapoun midada - i hear he writes and sings his own songs and this song is really good, i had to upload it on youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPXOrTKWYzo

Meas Soksophea just cause she's so pretty & i love her songs.

i'll say neay Grem (in comedy) he's hilarious...what happened to him?anybody know?

for singers i'll definetly say Noy Vanneth he's cool, he's old, he's classic and...and......and dont sing about love and how it breakup make him/her cry all the time like the singers now a day(dont get me wrong i do like some modern singer in RH and all that like Nob Bayarith). men teh bong po-orn

i like the song by nop bayarith yuu yang naa kor cham

does anybody even care about celebrities anymore?
anyways i wanna see atleast a khmer celeb up there
atleast put this pic up

you reconise him wow i was freaked out when i see that pic

of course, i like nop bayarith ...

Sovannreach, isn't it obvious. Haha

^who's that?

on my siggy.

Well, I would say Rithy Panh, he makes great movies and documentaries IMO, showing how life was and is in Cambodia.
