Winter is fast approaching and gloomy days lie ahead but the weather this weekend was really great. Starting Friday, the indoor soccer tournament took off with a blast, with major impetus from two new sponsors. EXPO WP is destined to become "the destination" for indoor soccer leading up to the Soccer World Cup and beyond. It's needless to say that even though Capetonians are more laid-back than their northern cousins, but they are definitely more hyped up about the Soccer World Cup. Inside EXPO WP main hall and outside you can constantly hear the sounds of the vuvuselas being blown, at times it sounds like a vuvusela sound-off, with many shoppers strolling the isles, clothed in Bafana Bafana colours and I have even seen some with a plastic Soccer World Cup helmets on their heads.
Besides the indoor soccer, virtually every weekend is filled with entertainment, with numerous singers gracing the EXPO WP stage with melodious songs and music. Just last weekend, Gino and Kaashief from Tica the Salsa Band, blew everyone away with musica en Español but this Sunday it was Megan's turn, to wow the audience and she did a really good job at that. The applause was phenomenal which in my opinion was rightly deserved. Megan very closely mimicked Whitney's singing with the song she sang.
Megan is young, pretty and very talented, with a voice of an "angel". Ye' ye' you might say, what an exaggerated claim, but you don't have to take my word for it, lets rather just look at the facts since I'm not the only one of that opinion. Megan attended an audition and was unanimously selected by a panel of 5 judges to represent South Africa at the launch of the Soccer World Cup and to sing at the opening. She was selected as the solo finalist from amongst 77 participants, all of whom auditioned for the part, but Megan came out tops. What an achievement, no? Yep, now you have to agree with me about her "angelic" voice. Yes (airpunch)! Megan will be making regular visits to EXPO WP to entertain the crowd, so if you would like to hear an angel sing, do come along to EXPO WP every weekend. Should you see her on National Television then at least you can say that you already heard and saw her before at EXPO WP. Megan is going to be a sensation but even before she becomes famous, many a fan has already requested to have a photo taken with her.
Another singer who entertained the crowd at EXPO WP was young Cole. He is ten years old, sings like an adult with the moves of Michael Jackson and the songs to match. The first time I heard him, was when he sang "Ben" and he really did justice to the song. Apparently he sings numerous songs from various eras and Cole is a real joy to listen to. I've even heard a "lady at the EXPO" exclaiming "I want to take him home with me". That certainly has the makings of fame!
With all this excitement in the exhibition area, there was a Kareoke taking place in the food court, whilst shoppers were eating at their tables. Everyone was thrilled, and many a shopper part-took in the singing. EXPO WP really has it all, from GOOD FOOD to entertainment, to clothing, to photographs, to art, to curios and much, much more.
