NINA ON ASIA UNCUT (STARWORLD CHANNEL) ON MAY 8, 2009

Be sure to catch the 9th episode this Friday 11.30pm SE Asia, 10pm Phillipines and 11pm Middle East on Star World, and if you cant make that, the repeat is on Sunday!

Six months and 25,000 kilometres around the world on a 1200cc BMW 25,000 kilometres, scottish adventurer Mike McCabe talks to Jon on his upcoming trip from Singapore to his homeland in Scotland. 

Philippines chart-topping Soul Siren of love songs Nina Girado croons a stirring number while Jon does a Diane Warren's love songs massacre - will there still be lovely singing ladies on Asia Uncut after this?

Tonight's cocktail on the house is an Asia Uncut: Flaming Viper. Watch Mixologist and the No. 2 bartender in the world Brian Van Flandern shake up that swine (reads: sweet & fine) intoxication with Jon Julio in his dodgy sombrero. 

Touted as the Beatles of today, Kaiser Chiefs from Leeds in the UK, talk to rapping guru Sheikh Haikel about the origins of their chiefdom and shows him what true rock star attitude is all about. 

Watch the mysticism and beauty of Bharatanatyam, unveiled by Kavita, Ajit and Shahrin, turn into a twisted Disney-Hollywood tale under Jon. 

Finally, direct from Lebanon in the Middle East, Jon catches up with composer-musician Guy Manoukian who talks about scoring with Shakira and playing ball with his '2-million-dollar' hands.
