Let's sing karaoke with Rosmah Mansor, in case if tomorrow never comes

Probably earned more than Sun Ho's album.

If you, like practically everyone else with normal eyes and ears, are befuddled by what exactly might be the pull and wealth of Rosmah Mansor, wonder no more.

The 66-year-old wife of former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak is said to have earned millions from her talent.

And what talent would that be, you may ask?

Well, it is her singing.

"Naturally gifted"

Rosmah's biography published in 2013 mentioned that she was a "naturally gifted accountant", and had released her own recording album, which apparently earned "millions".

As the album wasn't released to the public, it was bought by government ministers who were "big fans" of her talent.

Karaoke-style songs

To witness this "talent", you can see it for yourself.

Here's a video of Rosmah dedicating If Tomorrow Never Comes by Ronan Keating to her husband:

In 2005, she also released a duet with Akademi Fantasia 3 winner, Asmawi Ani.

The song, Lara Hati, which means "sorrowful souls" in Malay, was performed to campaign the Kedah Natural Disaster Relief Association.

But if contemporary songs aren't your cup of team, Rosmah can also be found leading a chorus to a Chinese New Year classic, Gong Xi Gong Xi.

And as icing on the cake, you can also watch this video of Rosmah performing a Bollywood dance:

Malaysians react

At least one Malaysian thought her music videos were "amazing".

Others, however, didn't think too highly of her singing.

And one Malaysian just thought it was karma for ridiculing Sun Ho.

Oh well.

Book launched by Mahathir

Snippets from Rosmah's biography was recently shared on May 22 by an Australian news site, in the wake of the incumbent-ousting May 9 Malaysia election.

Interestingly, a bit of digging reveals that Rosmah's book was launched by none other than Mahathir Mohamad in 2013, according to another report.

Back then, the current prime minister of Malaysia shared that he sympathised with Rosmah for "being unfairly targeted by certain quarters".

He even suggested for Rosmah Mansor’s biography to be distributed to schools as a guide for future generations “100 or 200 years from now”.
