The new stylish Anggun

Anggun is definitely still one of my favourite asian singer so far. Back in the days, during the released of her album "snow on the sahara", and "chrysalis" i always wanted to see her in better clothes and better stage presentation. Cause during that phase, her live stage performance usually her and microphone, or maybe sometimes, in additional to the live band, a piano for her solo acoustic songs.

Realising its hopeless, to have a high hopes to see her shedding her comfortable image at that time, to the extend i remember in one of her press interview she quoted saying that she wouldn't be suitable performing her song with  group of dancers cause she belief that wouldn't add substance to her song.

For clothes, During the past two album its normal seeing her wearing same clothes in two or three occasion,"simple" is her theme at that time, Anggun started to experiment with beautiful designers clothes after the release of "luminescence". She started to wear designers clothes,shoe and accessories not only in her music videos but also during live performance and concerts.

I attended her concert in KL during her promo showcase for "Elevation" when the audience doesnt not only anticipate her vocal and stage performance, but also wanting to see what she's gonna wear on stage. True enough during that showcase in Hotel Istana she came up on stage as stylista with a microphone and a live band behind her.

Anggun transformation as an international performer now has almost complete, european and asian market has embrace her,her album sold millions within asia and europe. Last year, She has been elected to represent France for Eurovision Song contest in 2012.A rare honour for Indonesian born, French citizen like her. Although she still may just be known in America to only selected adoring fans who happened to noticed her talent, it will be a matter of time, with the right album for Anggun to make her second try after "snow on the sahara" to be accepted in the north american music scene. Check out the two video below and watch the transformation of Anggun :)
