Born and raised in Singapore, Maia Lee took a path not many would even think of - she did not finish secondary education. At 15, she was already backpacking solo right after she left Ngee Ann Secondary School.

Although academically inclined - she topped her class in the Express stream and was also a prefect and ECA leader - Maia cited a terrible form teacher who made her so disappointed that she totally lost interest in going to school.

Stepping into the society at an early age, Maia has had to deal with different issues and challenges and it has all added up to her life experiences, making her at times what her friends would describe as, ‘an old soul'.

Maia, a Hainanese, is multi-lingual, writing and speaking in Chinese, English and Malay, and basic Spanish. She also speaks a mixture of Hokkien and Teochew, picked up from her parents.

An introvert, Maia enjoys her personal space - an opposite of what she has been portrayed as in previous reports. The straight-talking singer-actress is no stranger to controversies as she has lived the past few years of her personal life under public scrutiny, ever since her claim to fame on a local reality TV show.

She also claims to like to pretend to be stupid, much as she does not like to lie. "That is the best way to make someone else feel better, rather than to tell them the fact." She says.

Achievements

Her bluntness and quick-wit landed her a gig with The New Paper from 2005 - 2006, interviewing both local and overseas celebrities and often grilling them. Later in 2006, Maia moved on to writing for Starblog on STOMP.

Maia has since released a solo album as well as 3 dance albums with the now-defunct local dance band, The Usual Suspects, scoring three #1 tracks with the latter.

Her music and work has brought her to places in 3 different continents and she continues to perform on stage and more recently, went into acting. Watch the trailer at http://www.thegang.ksp.sg

She has also fronted a few magazine covers and was voted #8 sexiest on a local lad mag in 2005.

Personal life

The sole breadwinner and single mother-of-two, determined not to miss out on family life, makes her children her top priority.

Admittedly paranoid, Maia never allows anyone to snap pictures of her children without her consent.

Once living her life publicly, Maia now keeps her private life the way it should be - private.

If i am not wrong, this attention seeker gave birth to 2 children with 2 different men out of wedlock. :rolleyes:
 
Is she the new Opposition candidate to capture the bohemian vote :D ?

Seriously, much as i have nothing in common with her, I kinda respect her courage to be herself - warts & all.

Very brave - a bit neurotic/psychotic/rebellious for the sake of it (at least that's the impression to me) ....

Used to see her around Siglap with friends (some mutual) - then I believe she lived around Bedok area....

When Asian Contender is in town, she had a romance with that Croatian or Serdian muay thai candidate so - end up with his daughter named Jukka (pronounced Yukka) or something....

Her son was a toddler when she was active in Spore Idol, last I saw her photo in her blog with her son, young man now in primary school....

One of a kind in cookie cutter singapore....

Maia Lee has to be one of the world’s most unique people. This fiery beauty takes no crap and is ready to take on any challenge or challenger. A lot of you guys may remember her as one of our first The Spark Post's Top 100 Babes. The reponse to the profile we did on her was tremendous and it she has recieved one the biggest reactions we ever got from our readers. To this day we still get request for more of her. And looking at her you can see why this petite, pretty, saucy,firecraker grabs hold of all your attention on first sight. But there is alot more to this beauty than a pretty face and kick ass attitude. In this indepth interview we get a little peak into mind of Maia Lee, a fun place to be but definitely a place with full of surprises.

Maia Lee: Hello Hec!

Hec: :D Hi Maia glad to finally talk to you. Let’s start at the beginning @15 you dropped out of school and decided to go backpacking, pretty bold for a teenager. What made you feel you just had to leave?

Maia Lee: I hated my form teacher. She’s a total bitch. And the fact that the teachers they don’t know anything about giving credit to others. I used to top my class and then the Literature teacher gave me a B (instead of A*) for a poem I wrote. Because she said it was too well-written, I must have copied it from a book or something, somewhere. It was the biggest insult and I have the piece till now. It’s in my drawer and I’ll never forget her face and name. She’s a cunt. And then the form teacher she was just biased and she hated my guts she was the in-charge for Chinese Orchestra, in which I played the Chinese lute known as the Pipa. She kicked me out of the orchestra 6 times and each time asked me back, and I returned just to have her kick me out again.

Hec: damn that sucks she is cunt

Maia Lee: She couldn’t stand the way I managed the other pipa players - I was the leader and of course there were bound to be a lot of politics but I was THAT good that she couldn’t live without me. But she hated the fact that I could stand up to her and tell her NO, things should be done THIS WAY. So she gave me hell in class and eventually I got fed up and told her fuck you and I left school. Anyway the syllabuses are for the average being, I’m faster than the rest.

Hec: What did your family say about you leaving at such a young age?

Maia Lee: I don’t talk to my mom so I don’t know what her thoughts were. My dad was upset, but he told me, as long as I am confident that I can make a living when I grow up, then he’s fine. I’m all along really close to my dad so he knows how I am, he has confidence in me. He’s cooool!!!

Hec: What does he think about your career now? Is he involved in any way?

Maia Lee: He’s definitely involved, in the sense that he helps me look after my son, Tyrese (he’s 5), when I have to work in the evenings. Tyrese goes to childcare from 9am-6pm Mon-Fri. And he’s still worried about my career.

Hec: I am assuming that he and your mother are not together?

Maia Lee: they are together; I just don’t fancy her because she gambles a lot.

Hec: How’s her relationship with your son?

Maia Lee: She loves him. :)

Hec: when you went backpacking what countries did you visit?

Maia Lee: 1998, Perth/Fremantle in Oz. 1999, Indonesia, Peninsula Malaysia (where I went skinhead but I was stout then cuz I used to lift weights so I looked like an ugly butch) 2000 Thailand. That’s about all. No more backpacking until my boy grows up and he shall come with me

1263085-1124573-thumbnail.jpgHec: You traveled for 2 years wow. I am sure your Dad was worried. How often did you contact home?

Maia Lee: Each trip was about only a month, so I was home pretty often actually. I was away maybe for 6 months in that 2 years but for year 2000-2001 i lived alone in Malaysia for 11 months. Cuz of my first boyfriend he had to work there. Hahaha I was 17, and he’s the father of my son

Hec: How was that experience?

Maia Lee: It was crap living in Malaysia potholes everywhere. And since it’s Muslim country (I’ve nothing against them) the prayers ring every day at 7am and 7pm and I can’t sleep well.

Hec: How involved is Tyrese’s dad in his life?

Maia Lee: Initially, all the way until Ty was a 9 month-old baby then I decided to break off with him because he wasn’t someone who was motivated and I was the sole breadwinner and I had enough of it since he’s not old at all! So he should work no doubt he is an extremely responsible father no one can beat him at that, he was so loving but I was the one at fault I needed my own freedom and I was fickle back then so I had to break his heart and I’m selfish I admit. But having grown up in a so-called ‘complete’ family in which both parents are there I came to the conclusion that, that does not necessarily mean the child will grow up happy

Hec: How did that affect you growing up

Maia Lee: I was brought up by my dad mom was hardly around so I figured I want to be like him and I’ll give Tyrese the best and not have him see me quarrel with his dad. But then again I am extremely violent and I realized that fighting solves everything

Hec: Speaking of Tyrese it is a unique name who picked it and why ?

Maia Lee: I picked it. I was just growing fat at home while Tyrese was in my tummy, and I was on Playstation (Worms Armageddon) back then, and I decided to take a break and flipped the TV channels. It was about 2am at night and then It was showing E! and this handsome man came on and it was Tyrese Gibson yeah that dude. He is so damn hot! So I named Tyrese after him. And apparently he had a gf called Maia too? HAHAHAHA

Hec: Lol ok cool

Maia Lee: Well I only heard about it after a year hahaha

Hec: so you said you broke his dad’s heart do u think you are still a heart breaker?

Maia Lee: Yes I am Not that I’m a flirt but I haven’t found someone who can love me the way I love him so I just fuck off when I know he’s starting to love me more

Hec: How do you want to be loved?

Maia Lee: Communication, cuddles, support in my career and emotional well-being, and most of all, accept Tyrese and include the both of us in his life. Simple but very tough. Not that he has to support me financially but at least not be a fucking miser and make me pay for own stuff all the time

Hec: Do you really think fighting solves everything or that you won’t lose in a fight so you winning solves everything?

Maia Lee: Fighting does solve everything. Either physical or mental, it depends. I haven’t whacked someone for a year. so I’m well-behaved.

Hec: Do u lose?

Maia Lee: No I haven’t lost in any way

Hec: Mentally or physically?

Maia Lee: both mentally and physically I’m a psycho And I’m someone who has nothing to lose which is why no one really dares to date me because they worry about their career reputation etc

Hec: You don’t seem that tough to date you are kind of easy to understand. Where do the problems usually happen ?

Maia Lee: The fact that they are insensitive and forget to call me or respond to me as promised. No one is a man of their words SO FAR. None that I have met, none except for myself. I know I shouldn’t pitch myself as the Universal standard but I hate it when people forget about things they agreed on so I take it as them disregarding me, so I get insulted and angry and I’ll chuck a shit at them and they’ll complain that I’m moody and emo, so we’ll start arguing but I know I’m a simple person just that I’m emotional and I’m the kind who’d die for love I mean love as in true love which I haven’t found

Hec: Since we are the romance issue you already openly admit you are pansexual who is easier for you to deal with men or women

Maia Lee: haha Men of course put two women together and when PMS comes... hahah we’re petty by nature and some who are more ‘butch’ are deluded and think that they are men, but they can’t expect me to treat them as males!

Hec: so what draws you to the ladies?

Maia Lee: The fact that they are more sensitive and that they are cleaner and less of being a male chauvinist pig or egotistic and sex is better with a woman if she knows what to do :) And I was a child abuse victim so naturally I am very defensive with men since I know most of the time they want to know me only because of who I am or the fact that I’m fucking HOT and GORGEOUS

1263085-1124582-thumbnail.jpgHec: really but men have something that is really hard to substitute

Maia Lee: hahahahhah Yeah I love that part of men

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: but then again, to go through all that shit just for that 1 hour of pleasure 5 times a week isn’t worth it shit meaning the fact that they come to you only when they NEED you and disregard you for the rest of the time

Hec: your guys only go an hour? Lol

Maia Lee: I mean average 1 hour & I hate foreplay

Hec: Really??

Maia Lee: yeah I hate it

Hec: That is rare in a woman

Maia Lee: Hahahah I prefer action straight away

Hec: well how do u want to be pleased romantically

Maia Lee: Romantically? Erm...ok for being pleased romantically I appreciate the little acts like a simple SMS in some odd hour of the day when we’re apart telling me I miss you, I love you, or whatcha doing and the fact that I would be allowed to attend social functions together with him and not be hidden from view which is what I hardly receive since the men and women I’ve been with are not the ‘hooligan’ or of average status occupation-wise and they worry about their staff or colleagues or family doubting their judgments just because they are dating someone who’s considered controversial in Singapore - the land of being sincerely fake I mean, fakely sincere but I still love Singapore of course. but not the people If I weren’t a threat to anyone, they wouldn’t treat me this way. So then again, I feel an ego boost somehow :)

Hec: So what’s more important the romance or the sex

Maia Lee: equally but if really, really, really, have to choose, it’s the ‘romance’, which I’d rather call it, concern and the level of acknowledgement in his life and his family

Hec: how does the way you are viewed in Singapore make you feel

Maia Lee: It makes me feel like I’m in some fucked up hole full of aliens they’re so weird and yet they think I’m the weirdo It makes me really angry that they are plastic (fake), superficial, materialistic, shallow bitchy, wimpish you know, most of the Singaporeans haven’t any balls to voice their opinions they love to write in to the major papers, where the forums are and they’d never dare to put their real name or be quoted or have their pictures taken makes me think that they’ve probably have marbles for their balls hahahahha screw them

Hec: LOL LOL if they have any balls

Maia Lee: HAHAHAHAHHAH YEAH WELL SAID!!!! Hahaha And that applies to anyone who think and behave the way the majority of Singaporeans do too I guess it’s also because it’s an Asian culture - it’s conservative to the max I guess it’s also because it’s an Asian culture - it’s conservative to the max god damn it

Hec: I noticed you said you like Tyrese Gibson so I guess your into black guys what other races do you like or consider your type? What do you look for in a man?

Maia Lee: I’m fine with all races except for middle-eastern men and men from India. Mid-eastern men seem so violent and I’m not the submissive type and same goes for Indian national woohoo!

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: I like men who can commit that’s all who’d love me and Tyrese there isn’t like a criteria and I can never accept men who club or party

Hec: y

Maia Lee: because I don’t do that and people go to parties with one-night stands and affairs at the back of their minds

Hec: so you are one to go to the club to dance and just have fun

Maia Lee: I’d rather be renting DVDs and cuddling in bed all day and that bed action. NO!!! I’ve never clubbed in my life and I can’t dance and I expect the club to pay me to enter and not the other way round that’s what happened so far haha I just work if I have to once I’m done, I’ll fuck off far far away from those dark shitholes

Hec: So I asked what pleased you romantically what pleases you sexually

Maia Lee: sexually a lot of kissing but not foreplay and I am experimental but never force me else I’ll get turned off forever for that particular act

Hec: so you like to take the lead

Maia Lee: yes I do but I like variety too it seems that I haven’t met anyone who had the guts or creativity to take the lead I mean, can’t they, once in a while, let me be a fucking pussycat or submissive woman? But anyway, to get to the level of that, we’ve to be extremely comfortable with each other and I think I cannot recall who.... maybe one, maybe none

Hec: so you want a man to be a man

Maia Lee: of course! just fucking throw me in bed the moment I come home etc even if I’m to complain just go ahead and eat me that’d be nice I think I’m too fierce for anyone to dare to do that or maybe they REALLLLY LOVE me too much to be rough with me but c’mon I do muay thai and I’ve been boxing (unprofessionally) for a decade

Hec: I don’t believe in all the soft stuff 100% of the time either

Maia Lee: ah that’s good Variety is perfect keeps things interesting and I hate it when everything becomes routine 1. suck 2. turn around etc

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: hahahahah

Hec: You do muay thai?! no one wonder you don’t lose fights

Maia Lee: nah I’m the worst in class (Muay Thai) I;ve zero stamina I’m small the other girls are towering over me of course I get whacked and the fact that I can’t bring myself to whack a female

Hec: I am sure u can take a punch

Maia Lee: I haven’t really been studying boxing, just watched videos. It started when I was 5 and my dad and my elder sis (she’s 26 this year) were into WWF and my sis and I would imitate the executions hahah so I bugged my dad to buy me a punchbag and I use it to vent my frustrations and train for strength and kicking but I prefer muay thai because its prettier hah and better to take someone down and I get to wear funny shorts hahaha And I’ve been doing Muay thai for only 5 months

Hec: How is your relationship with your sis

Maia Lee: I love her. I gave her a nick name when we were kids It derived from Vader of the WWF she used to be bigger and plump and she was really fair so I’d tease her (I was very mean) and say she looks like Vader and when she got to secondary school

Hec: wow children are cruel

Maia Lee: her best friend was an Indian girl so I Indian-ised the name it became Vadur and it’s stuck to her since HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: but she loves it so yeah we’re cool hahahahha she looks like me just that she got all the good genes so she’s prettier and taller and has straight teeth mine’s crooked haha

Hec: well you’re still pretty Maia how tall is she?

Maia Lee: but I got all the nutrients so I’ve bigger bags hahaha

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: now I don’t know how to convert to feet and inches 5 ft something

Hec: it is 5 ft 1 in

Maia Lee: oh yeah and she’s smarter and really quiet she topped the school every year was a straight a student and won all sorts of academic competitions be it calligraphy, knowledge, literature book prize geography mathematics

Hec: good you sound proud of her what does she do now ?

Maia Lee: Yeah I’m so proud of her! but she’s as eccentric as I am we’re the Addams family.
 
Tatoo all over body. Does she also tattoo on Neh neh and chow Cibei?
 
Hec: What made you decide to try for Singapore Idol ?

Maia Lee: haha Well I was singing with my first band at Hard Rock Café and I decided to sing for a living so Singapore Idol came (btw I don't watch TV so I didn't know much about AI) so I took part, thinking that it would give me more exposure so that I could command a higher fee in the future and that I'll have more gigs I knew I would be in the finals but I also know I will not win I just wanted to be there...didn't know so much shit and blessings in disguises would happen

Hec: Did you ever feel out place with all the different themes they placed on the show?

Maia Lee: Nope, I'm always cool I liked my shit though the rest didn't and btw I clicked with NONE of them except for Sly after he started wooing me I was hated way back then because I don't talk

Hec: The week you went home did you expect it

Maia Lee: yeah I expected it because I chucked a shit the week before

Hec: So you don’t keep in contact with any of them

Maia Lee: No. I don't talk to people who are not intellectual and who just dwell on bitching I screamed and cursed and threatened to beat another cunt on Disco night while we were filming the pre-recorded adverts

Hec: lol Why ?

Maia Lee: because she bitched about me and I forgave her and then she loved to kiss ass and the main reason was she had, for the previous weeks, liked my style (dressing, choreography, make-up) and had asked me for permission to request from the stylists to make her look like me and the previous two weeks I was fine with it until that week she just had to piss me off by picking the top that I had chose but didn't wear (we all got to choose 2 sets of clothes). So I got mad cuz whatever I chose was MY fucking style so why must she copy me? we were at the boutique at the same time back then so she should have stuck to her own fucking j i b y e (Chinese curse) choice of clothes so after she came off stage I was at the TV theatre glaring at her and I shouted vulgarities and told her to fucking go change out of her clothes

Hec: I love the ji bye sayings

Maia Lee: hahahhahaha

Hec: camera caught u?

1263085-1127001-thumbnail.jpgMaia Lee: nope but all the producers and relevant big shots were there but I don't give a shit anyway that cunt went back to change her clothes I'm not saying it's because of this that I got booted but more or less you know, I'm entitled to have my doubts since the 'spin doctor' was ass-kissed by her and her family is influential her mom even complained and said that the stylists liked me more and made me look prettier but the fact is, if you're born to look like shit All my make up and hair were dictated by myself and not the stylists. dumb ppl. ok I'm so worked up cuz I still see her fuck face once in a while. Ok, ok back to interview

Hec: How did you feel about Season 2? Did you watch this season? Did you identify with what they went through?

Maia Lee: no I didn't watch season 2 I wouldn't waste my time on a bunch of jokers since I have been through all the SI crap and I know what rubbish it is

Hec: did you want to win the whole thing or did you see the bullshit and was glad to go?

Maia Lee: I was fucking glad to go because I cannot stand being around people who haven't got much intellectual stuff to talk about and backstab each other being their main source of survival for those who watch idol, they all notice that I was the only one whom nobody came to hug when I was voted out I'm that 'Queen'.

Hec: What intellectual topics do you like to focus on

Maia Lee: I like to talk about social issues nature, debates, sex, not music though cuz it's pretty subjective and there's no1263085-1127003-thumbnail.jpg end to it and maybe, travel , yeah. I mean, I've seen more than the average Singaporean my generation has ever seen I think I'd fit well if this were the 70s blood, violence, death, abuse, pedophiles, I've experienced them all

Hec: I always see you with a guitar in your arms how long have u been playing? Do you play any other instruments?

Maia Lee: I suck at the guitar I hate it I play the Pipa, which is a Chinese lute I've played that really well since I was 13

Hec: Seriously? Why so many poses with the guitar

Maia Lee: photographer made me do it hahahahha nah, some of it was taken when I was playing at a bar

Hec: lol what about when you were on stage with it

Maia Lee: I strum very dead patterns and piss my guitarist off, that's all. Hahahha I love him, he's a nice chap

Hec: lol that is sick you’re funny

Maia Lee: anyway guitars look huge on me and they suffocate my best friends so I prefer not having it mic suits me better since it resembles a.......... Dick

Hec: yeah we don’t want your twins hidden anyway LOL

Maia Lee: BWAHAHHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hec: LOL

Hec: you spoke of all the stuff you've experience What would you say is the most valuable experience or lesson that you picked up on the road ?

Maia Lee: That you can only learn about living when you have no worries about death.

Hec: damn you are real literal you write your own music?

Maia Lee: yeah but they sound funny, at least, to me because I listen to a lot of Malay music so it comes out not 'Western' sounding hahahah mostly ballads which I hate but don't know why I can't get a fucking Aerosmith song

Hec: lol it will come

Maia Lee: hahaha I love classic rock!!!!!

Hec: me too

Maia Lee: I love the doors

Hec: Janis Joplin ?

Maia Lee: yeah!!!!

Hec: What other Asian artists influenced you?

Maia Lee: Amr Diab, Ning Baizura that's about all hahaha

Hec: You like Ning B!! really? Cool

Maia Lee: Yeah! You know her? She's hot

Hec: yeah sure do malay r&b i am into different music

Maia Lee: that's so cool I didn't know you'd know!

Hec: Her voice is awesome

Maia Lee: she got into a lot of trouble a couple of years back just because she's also straightforward and less conservative but now she's toned down I love all her songs I met her twice in person, when I was 15 and last year I was so star-struck I was grinning from ear to ear

Hec: yeah i know she was real controversial she got cheated out her money back in the day

Maia Lee: religion/culture/society kills a lot of beauty

Hec: I like her she talks sex g strings all that1263085-1127006-thumbnail.jpg

Maia Lee: Which is totally fine! Look at those who act holy and religious and go to church or mosque or temple they still bitch, rape all do all the other crimes not like they don't have sex.

Hec: I respect her being her cause malaysia is super muslim

Maia Lee: duh.

Hec: What asian artists are you listening to now?

Maia Lee: Siti Nurhaliza, JJ Chou, Jay Chou sorry hahhaha got his name wrong and MYSELF! that's all.

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: actually Jay chou only ONE song that I listen too

Hec: which one

Maia Lee: 一路向北 It means erm.. literally, on the road all the way to the north hahaha

Hec: What about artist from elsewhere in the world

Maia Lee: : yeah what about them, those I like or those I'm listening to recently?

Hec: both

Maia Lee: I like MJ, Toni Braxton, Def Leppard, Janis Joplin, Aerosmith, Queen, Deep Purple, Led Zepplin, Lifehouse, LeAnn Rimes, Tatu, Skid Row, Pink, Michael Bolton, Johnny Cash, Garbage, Elvis pelvis hahha DILANA!!!! Arcade Fire Alanis Morissette and Alice Cooper And I'm listening to Toto, Alanis Morissette, Lifehouse, Dishwalla, ACDC, Audioslave, Heart and Sex Pistols

Hec: You self manage? Why did you decide to go that route instead of getting a traditional one? Any negatives to being self managed

Maia Lee: Yes I do self-manage because no one remembers how to be sincere and not fake so they cannot deal with me I was managed for a while initially then I couldn’t' stand my managers and everything ceased. Well they want me to be something I'm not. I have zero respect for most of the so called 'celebs' here. Because #1, there are no celebrities or stars in Singapore & #2, most of all who have managers, can live with what is ordered for them to do just because they are so hungry for fame it's crap it's stupidity at its best they conform to everything and be some good upright citizen role model so that they'll have fans I know them all too well some even proposed sleeping with me and I go 'oh fuck you' just because they are the so-called heartthrobs of local scene it doesn't mean I think they're damn hot.

Hec: continue

Maia Lee: you have to behave and listen to them to managers I mean it's all a show, that's why it is called SHOWBIZ and I know I'm not cut out for it but I'm still around because they need someone to stir shit and that person is me I should start my own tabloid and spill all on those people damn That's why I don't like it when someone claims to be my 'fan', because I'm just a normal citizen who has a job that makes me easily recognizable but I'm not morally upright

Hec: elaborate

Maia Lee: ... not a role model and I curse and swear and flip my middle finger at people in public too I litter at times, I spit, I broke the law I am for same-sex marriage (which is such a no-no in Singapore)

Hec: Aren't the punishments in Singapore real harsh for that stuff

Maia Lee: Yeah, they slap you with fines, they make you sweep the roads and depending on what law you break, you get a fine, get locked up, go to jail get hanged yeah Singapore is a FINE city. Love it though, at least the streets are pretty much safe and the PM is handsome. Prime Minister hehe

Hec: lol

Maia Lee: I'm serious! I had a crush on him for years. Not because I want to be his wife or anything, he was just so handsome I love old men.HAHAHAHAHA

Hec: seriously ?!! how old is he

Maia Lee: 50 +

Hec: wow so I am too young for you

Maia Lee: Nah I just associate age with less shit they're gonna give me young, but not too young too young is 3 years older than me most of my boyfriends were a decade older

Hec: Have you dealt with any other asian celebs from other countries? Do u feel the same about them?

Maia Lee: Yeah I've dealt with some and I feel the same about them too

Hec: Does your music career ever affect you blogging job?

Maia Lee: nope, it doesn't. the blogging is flexible and the bosses are really understanding and I respect them a lot.

Hec: You are a single mom. How have you adjusted to raising your son and being a star. Does he know that Mommy is famous yet?

Maia Lee: Firstly, I'm not a star. And I don't need to adjust anything because it's only work and I'm pretty flexible and get to spend a lot of time with Tyrese. Anyway he's my top priority so work comes 2nd. Simply because I love him more than anything else. He's oblivious to it all, he couldn't even be bothered when I'm on TV or when my face is in the news spread and he hates it when people come up to me to take pictures he gets jealous and worse, if the people request for pictures with him, which happens really often, he'll get pissed off and storm off hahaha but he's a nice boy, he's just very shy

Hec: wow lol

Maia Lee: yeah.

Hec: he takes after mommy a little?

Maia Lee: not at all, except for the shy part

Hec: You have had some success with the Usual Suspects did you expect some of yours songs to be such an international hit

Maia Lee: nope I didn't, and when I found out, I was so happy. The Usual Suspects was a great band, I miss them and the music Too bad, in shitty commercialized Singapore, you cannot find radio stations to play dance music anymore so we disbanded everyone was into house, and then it became pop/emo rock shit, then it became hip hop and now I don't know what the hell it is. Jazz maybe? Can't appreciate those shit sorry. hahahahhaha

Hec: How has people’s reaction been to you compared to when you first came out and later when you announced that you consider yourself pansexual?

Maia Lee: well generally people have been kind though some think that I'm just out to get attention to keep myself in the limelight they should in fact, think I'm some Goddess because I am enlightening them; or a guru because I'm trying to teach them to use their brains. Guess you can tell I'm pretty fed up living here hahaha

Hec: I sure do

Maia Lee: but this is home and I don't run away.

Hec: I can tell you love the country but not the society

she ish the elite one...RGS.
Break record somemore!!!!

:p :o :p
 
Although academically inclined - she topped her class in the Express stream and was also a prefect and ECA leader - Maia cited a terrible form teacher who made her so disappointed that she totally lost interest in going to school.

.......................................
She also claims to like to pretend to be stupid, much as she does not like to lie. "That is the best way to make someone else feel better, rather than to tell them the fact." She says.

...............
Personal life

The sole breadwinner and single mother-of-two, determined not to miss out on family life, makes her children her top priority.

Sorry but with just the few para above, this person cannot make it in life despite what her justifications were.

1. Dropped out of school and ruin her education becos disappointed with 1 teacher ! 'Disappointed' meant that teacher did not live up to her expectation ? Need to give up her education becos of a teacher who may not be related to her? Even if related, there is no reason for a sane person to do the extreme.

2. Claim to be stupid to let others feel better ? Man, how stupid can you get ?

3. A single-mother-of 2 !!! Normally once bitten twice shy. This person is once bitten, like to be bitten more often. Where is her moral and I cannot imagine her children is only half-siblings. Better pay attention to their emotional effect when they learnt of the mother's prefernce to be single mother.

Really amazing for someone to be able to talk proudly of her 'achievements' inspite of what the general community deem as opposite.
 
Lanjiao la. She's jus a chao ah lian who no even have O levels wor, still wanna talk about 'intellectual topics'! lol...

The fact is that this is SG where this type of thing is still frowned upon. Even in more liberal countries like say the US this is also not highly regarded. It's quite common over there but still there's nothing to be proud of.

Yet of course ppl are going to overlook that and the ppl that usually do tend to be males. I also wonder do u think there's a correlation between her supporters being males whom will overlook her shortcomings and the fact that she has huge boobs, small figure and gives the impression that she's easy? :rolleyes:
 
wow i love maia lee!
and actually she is one of those non-sinkie women...

Born and raised in Singapore, Maia Lee took a path not many would even think of - she did not finish secondary education. At 15, she was already backpacking solo right after she left Ngee Ann Secondary School.

Although academically inclined - she topped her class in the Express stream and was also a prefect and ECA leader - Maia cited a terrible form teacher who made her so disappointed that she totally lost interest in going to school.

Stepping into the society at an early age, Maia has had to deal with different issues and challenges and it has all added up to her life experiences, making her at times what her friends would describe as, ‘an old soul'.

Maia, a Hainanese, is multi-lingual, writing and speaking in Chinese, English and Malay, and basic Spanish. She also speaks a mixture of Hokkien and Teochew, picked up from her parents.

An introvert, Maia enjoys her personal space - an opposite of what she has been portrayed as in previous reports. The straight-talking singer-actress is no stranger to controversies as she has lived the past few years of her personal life under public scrutiny, ever since her claim to fame on a local reality TV show.

She also claims to like to pretend to be stupid, much as she does not like to lie. "That is the best way to make someone else feel better, rather than to tell them the fact." She says.

Achievements

Her bluntness and quick-wit landed her a gig with The New Paper from 2005 - 2006, interviewing both local and overseas celebrities and often grilling them. Later in 2006, Maia moved on to writing for Starblog on STOMP.

Maia has since released a solo album as well as 3 dance albums with the now-defunct local dance band, The Usual Suspects, scoring three #1 tracks with the latter.

Her music and work has brought her to places in 3 different continents and she continues to perform on stage and more recently, went into acting. Watch the trailer at http://www.thegang.ksp.sg

She has also fronted a few magazine covers and was voted #8 sexiest on a local lad mag in 2005.

Personal life

The sole breadwinner and single mother-of-two, determined not to miss out on family life, makes her children her top priority.

Admittedly paranoid, Maia never allows anyone to snap pictures of her children without her consent.

Once living her life publicly, Maia now keeps her private life the way it should be - private.

If i am not wrong, this attention seeker gave birth to 2 children with 2 different men out of wedlock. :rolleyes:

maia lee is a lowly educated, heavily tattooed, single mother of 2. :)

i wouldnt want to be anywhere near this woman much less buy any magazine with this sub o levels, heavily tattooed girl on it.

in my view, she would be the #39902040221 sexiest woman in singapore.
 
"Born and raised in Singapore, Maia Lee took a path not many would even think of - she did not finish secondary education. At 15, she was already backpacking solo right after she left Ngee Ann Secondary School."

Not even finishing seconday school is actually a path many if not most Singaporeans have taken. Lowly educated, no professional skills, single parenthood, illiteracy and poverty.

You see them at every coffeeshops and retail outlets all over singapore. they tend to speak in singlish or mandarin amongst themselves all the time!

their only skill is to yell " lai lai, what you want to eat"
 
Do u have a dick? Can you talk about 'intellectual topics'? Can u handle a broke nose or a bruised eye?

LOL !

On 2nd thoughts, i think one can be sceptical about her claims about digging 'intellectual topics' in her interview.

Look at the man she almost ROM - Sylvester Sim is the last person I would call 'intellectual'. Ditto for the angmo muay thai dude she fucked without protection. Intellectual ? Pui !

At least most lowly educated people are not so shameless to say they only chat on 'intellectual topics'! Knn dua kang yao siu!
