chuckwoww Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 BANGKOK (Reuters Life!) - Five beauties, questionable singing abilities, great dance moves and the skimpiest of outfits: "Venus Flytrap" fits the girl band cliche in every respect but one. Bobo, Taya, Gina, Amy and Nok are ladyboys brought together by music firm Sony BMG to create a girl group with a twist. Stylish and articulate, they want to sweep aside the common image of ladyboys as cabaret queens or tourist curiosities and join the mainstream of international pop. They have quite a way to go as the girls still flog the nightclub circuit in Bangkok, but the band is hoping a newly-released album, "Visa for Love" and a risque video will propel them to stardom. In preparation, they're already behaving like celebrities, making a dramatic, breathy entrance into the boardroom at Sony BMG's Bangkok office and flinging themselves on chairs amid much posing, pouting and flicking of hair. http://www.myspace.com/venusflytrapfan http://in.today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=entertainmentNews&storyID=2007-02-15T171415Z_01_NOOTR_RTRJONC_0_India-287854-1.xml&archived=False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dali Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Don't know if they'll actually sell a lot of music, but I gotta admit they look hot, regardless of what they were born with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
