It promises to be a show of some proportions. Super Kam and the League of Extraordinary Femmes is set to be unleashed next week, headlined by comedian, radio DJ and our very own MAHB: Sex columnist Joanne Kam. She is bringing a host of her friends with her, including Jo Kukathas, Joanna Bessey and Shamaine Othman. But we were interested in two particular comediennes, Maya Tan Abdullah and Daphne Iking, and wanted to know about their superhero alter-ego. So we asked them some basic super-heroe-y questions. Let's just say, they gave us plenty of crazy:

MAYA TAN ABDULLAH

ESQUIRE: What's your super-hero name?
MAYA TAN ABDULLAH: SuperKaraOkieDokie

ESQ: Superpower?
MTA: Ai kiru peeparu withu mai supa-karaoke pawa. Ai burekku eah duramu ando ai karaoke peeparu antiru dey foru anda da taberu. Ai emu kemhoru ando ai sutanu mai enemisu with mai SuperKara Fureshu Raito!
(Translation):  I slay with my super-karaoke powers, busting eardrums and singing people under the table. I am also a camwhore and have been known to stun my enemies with my Superkara Fureshu Right-O (Deadly Flash Light).

ESQ: If you had an arch-nemesis, it would be...
MTA: Rosumaru! Oops, ai minu da karaoke kuweenu ofu mareisya neh. Ai woodo menshang ha nemu batu ai dontu wanto dai an antaimeri defu. C4 dontu raiku.
(Translation): The Karaoke Queen of Malaysia. I would mention her name, but I don't want to die an untimely death. Me and C4 don't get along.

ESQ: Your superhero catchphrase?
MTA: Kurimu Mai Pantissu!!!
(Translation): Cream my panties!! (What? I'm a Japanese anime superhero.)

ESQ: If you could fix Malaysia, you would fix...
MTA: Pyu-biku heru. I wud meku eburibodi getu a brazirianu waxu- so datu eburiting wiru bi Bersih ando ressu fuzzy ando ressu hazy ando itsu importang foru a buraita kureara fucharu.
(Translation): Pubic hair. I would make everybody get a Brazilian wax so that everything becomes cleaner, less fuzzy and less hazy. It's important for a brighter, clearer future.

ESQ: And what can we expect for the Super Kam show?
MTA: Bigu bootisu bigu boobsu bigu pantissu biga rafus and bigassu party!
(Translation): Big booties, big boobs, big panties, bigger laughs and a bigass party!

* She added:
Ando ifu yeu paburishu an aguri pikcha ofu me, ai wiru kiku yoru assu!
(Translation) And if you publish an ugly picture of me I will kick your ass!

DAPHNE IKING

ESQUIRE: What's your super-hero name?
DAPHNE IKING: Wetdream Girl

ESQ: Superpower?
DI: Wetdream superpowers were meant to mend broken hearts, painful heartbreaks and to fix any form of relationships by entering into the dreams of those tormented to soothe and ease/fix their sadness – but as innocently as she tiptoes into their REM stage of sleep, she ends up giving them wet dreams. Because of that (after three months of unsuccessful attempts to reduce the amount of bedwetting of those she tried to save), Wetdream has realigned her skills to seduction – a skill to entice any person to remain enthralled and charmed. Basically, to seduce her way through negotiations and such.

ESQ: Your biggest weakness?
DI: My own reflection.

ESQ: Your superhero catchphrase?
DI: Last night I had the best dream of my life…and you were in it.

ESQ:  Why did you decide to be a part of the Super Kam laughfest?
DI: 'Cause I don’t want JoKam’s ass on my face.

ESQ: And what can we expect for the Super Kam show?
DI: A fun 2 hours or so of comedy with some bootilicious superheroines.

Super Kam & the League of Extraordinary Femmes will be showing from Thursday, June 28 to Sunday, July 1, at Black Box, MAP Publika at 8:30PM. Call 017 330 5776 for ticket enquiries and more information.
