Life and career
[edit]1979–1994: Childhood, family, and early exposure to music
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2a/Kuala_Lipis_Boundary_Marker.png/260px-Kuala_Lipis_Boundary_Marker.png)
Siti was born on 11 January 1979 in Berek Polis, Kampung Awah in Temerloh, Pahang where she was the fifth child in a family of eight siblings to Tarudin Ismail, a police officer and Siti Salmah Bachik, a housewife.[17][18] She comes from a musically inclined family; her brother Saiful Bahri (Ayie), and her sisters Siti Norsaida and Siti Saerah are also singers.[19][20] Her grandfather, Bachik Abdul Rahman was a well-known local violinist,[21] and her mother was a local traditional singer.[17]
She first showcased her early singing talent at the age of six when she sang "Sirih Pinang",[22] a traditional Malay song, at her kindergarten's graduation ceremony.[17] When her family moved from Temerloh to Kuala Lipis,[20] she attended her primary school at Sekolah Rendah Kebangsaan Clifford and followed up her secondary education at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Clifford.[23] In 1991, when she was 12, she won one of her earliest singing competitions, with the song "Bahtera Merdeka" at a local patriotic song competition.[24][25] During her schooling years, she was actively involved with co-curricular activities and sports,[26] especially in netball[27] and hockey.[23] In 1994, at the age of 15, she was featured in Minda Pelajar, a news section for teens by Berita Harian after her group performance at school was spotted by Tamrin Anuar, a news reporter for Berita Harian at that time.[23] In 2014, she recalled the interview as her first exposure to the entertainment industry.[23] She commented, "[Being featured in] The news in Minda Pelajar was like a sign to me to pursue a career in the entertainment industry although I was dreaming of becoming a police officer."[23][a] She also once played a minor role for a TV drama alongside Zizie Ezette when she was in Form Four.[28]
Coming from a poor family,[25][29] at the age of nine,[30] Siti sometimes had to wake up at 4:00 am to help her mother make and sell various homemade kuih in her neighbourhood[30] and school.[23] On occasions, she also had to carry a makeshift table down three flights of stairs to the main road to set up a small stall.[31] She commented that all the hardships have not only helped her to be more frugal when spending,[29] but also to be more confident when communicating with the public.[30] She also jokingly said that the whole experience has helped to improve her vocal skills as she has to shout to call for customers.[32] Apart from actively participating in various local singing competitions,[23] she also used to follow her uncle, Abdul Rahim Bachik with his band, Family Group to invitational shows like wedding ceremonies and dinner parties which have helped to expose her to performing live.[33][34]
1995–1998: Bintang HMI, "Jerat Percintaan", and rise to prominence
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Angkasapuri%2C_Kuala_Lumpur.jpg/260px-Angkasapuri%2C_Kuala_Lumpur.jpg)
Since her childhood, she actively joined various singing competitions around Kuala Lipis.[23] At 14, she auditioned for Asia Bagus but did not make the cut.[35] Two years later in 1995, her sister-in-law, Rozi Abdul Razak persuaded Siti's brother, Ayie to bring Siti to Kuala Lumpur to audition for Bintang HMI at Auditorium P. Ramlee, Angkasapuri.[36] Although they arrived close to closing time, Siti was given a chance to sing "Kaulah Segalanya" by Ruth Sahanaya and she made through the audition stage.[36] During the semifinal, she sang "Kemelut di Muara Kasih" by Ziana Zain, and Adnan Abu Hassan who was then Suria Records' general manager took notice of her talent and instructed his staff to reach out to Siti.[2] On 23 December 1995, she was crowned as the champion of Bintang HMI after singing "Camar Yang Pulang" by Aishah.[37] She was approached by four recording companies after the result announcement, including Suria Records, Sony Music, BMG Music, and Warner Music.[37] Although she did not immediately sign any contract, she ultimately chose Suria Records as her recording label.[38]
"I had my future all planned out. Though I love singing, I wanted to be a police officer, like my father. But now that I have won the Juara Lagu 1996, that might all change. I might try a career in showbiz instead."
—Siti after crowned as the 11th Anugerah Juara Lagu winner."[39]
As she was only 17 during the recording of her debut album with Suria Records,[38] her mother had to accompany her every time Siti was travelling from Kuala Lipis to Kuala Lumpur during weekends.[40] Albeit she was now a signed artist, she still had to focus on her studies as she had to sit for her Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) in the same year.[38] Under Suria Records, Adnan coached and trained Siti on how to sing properly in the studio.[41] During her early years, she sometimes will stay at Adnan's house and they will even ride a motorcycle together so he can send her to her performance venues.[42][43] The first song she ever recorded for her first album was "Jawapan di Persimpangan".[44] Her eponymous debut album, Siti Nurhaliza was released on 1 April 1996,[43][note 1] with "Jerat Percintaan" as the first single from the album.[45] Less than a year after the album was released, more than 50,000 units have been sold.[46] "Jerat Percintaan" was well received and helped to launch her career. It enabled her to join Muzik Muzik, where voted finalists will compete for the grand champion title of Anugerah Juara Lagu. She qualified for the semifinal of 1996 Muzik-Muzik, but as she was busy with the preparations for her SPM, Rozi and Ayie had to convince her to perform during the semifinal even though she only had one day to practice.[36] During the 1996 Anugerah Juara Lagu, she bagged the award for Best Ballad, Best Performance, and the overall champion of the 11th Anugerah Juara Lagu.[39] Her popularity rose exponentially in the same year as she would later go to win four popularity awards from 1996 Anugerah Bintang Popular, including Popular Teen Artist, Popular TV Entertainer, Popular Female Artist, and the overall Most Popular Artist category.[47]. In 1997, "Jerat Percintaan" helped her to win the Best Song and Best New Female Artist categories from 4th Anugerah Industri Muzik.[48]
To help launch the career of 2 By 2, a four-piece Malay boy band in 1996,[2] Adnan proposed for Siti and 2 By 2 to sing a duet cover of a classic song, "Mawarku".[2][49] The pairing of Siti and 2 By 2 on "Mawarku" was a great success. 2 By 2's debut album, Rindu was sold in excess of 150,000 units.[50] The success of "Mawarku" was also recognized in neighbouring Singapore. It was heralded as 1996's Most Popular Song and Siti was awarded Most Popular New Artist from Singapore's Anugerah Muzik Popular.[28] In 1997, they were paired again for two classic song covers, "Gubahanku" and "Tiga Malam" for 2 By 2's second album, Pak Pung Pak Mustafe.[51] The album too achieved similar success as more than 100,000 units were sold.[51] In the same year, Siti began the plan to expand her career to Indonesia. One of her earliest media appearances in Indonesia was as a cover girl for the April 1997 edition of Pos Kota.[52] Suria Records rereleased "Aku Cinta Padamu", the first single from her sophomore album Siti Nurhaliza into Bahasa Indonesia.[53] Known as "Betapa Kucinta Padamu",[53] the rerelease was a hit and the album sold more than 500,000 units in Indonesia.[54] She also became the first Malaysian artist to stage a live TV concert for Indosiar, Satu Jam Bersama Siti Nurhaliza.[55][56]
"Cindai is a beautiful, exquisite cloth that also serves as a useful weapon. When one is struck by a parang, the cloth is so durable it can be used as a shield. It’s a metaphor for a woman who can be lovely and graceful but strong and powerful at the same time."
— Pak Ngah, composer for "Cindai" explaining the meaning of the song."[57]
Back in Malaysia, her sophomore album sold in excess of 350,000 units.[58] She qualified to the 1997 Anugerah Juara Lagu and she won Best Performance and Best Ballad categories for the second time in a row.[59][60] She also won the popularity award from 1997 Anugerah Bintang Popular for Popular Female Artist award and the overall Most Popular Artist title for second year running.[47] Cindai, Siti's first traditional album was released on 17 November 1997, with single of the same name was released to promote it.[61] Cindai charted atop of Recording Industry Association of Malaysia's (RIM) local album chart[62] and later sold more than 400,000 copies in Malaysia and another 100,000 copies in Indonesia.[58] Cindai also topped the list of 1998 Malaysia's most influential albums by New Straits Times.[63] During the 1998 Commonwealth Games, she performed for both opening and closing ceremonies at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium.[28][64] She performed "Cindai" during the closing ceremony,[64] in front of Queen Elizabeth II and her consort, Price Philip, dignitaries and officials from 70 countries including those from the Commonwealth of Nations, and more than 100,000 people who were in attendance.[64][65]

Initially scheduled to perform in Brisbane for South Pacific International Song Contest, she was unable to make the trip due to problems faced by the organizer.[81] Instead, contestants outside of Australia were asked to submit their entries via recorded cassettes and CDs for judges to deliberate.[9] Her English rendition of "Satu Cinta Dua Jiwa", "We'll be As One" won Best Vocal Performance (Female) and Best Pop/Top 40 categories.[9] She also participated in Asia New Singer Competition held in Shanghai, and her performance of "Purnama Merindu" won herself the main prize of the competition, the Gold Award.[82] She was also later invited by the competition organizer as guest performing artist in 2000 and 2002.[83][84] Back in Malaysia, Adiwarna continued to bring her success at the 1999 Anugerah Industri Muzik.

Artistry
[edit]Voice and timbre
[edit]Siti has been consistently praised and awarded for her vocals and it's capability. Her success and her vocal prowess have earned her various honorific nicknames from the media and public including "Voice of Asia",[7] "Asia's Celine Dion",[16] and "Malaysia's Number One Singer".[308] A coloratura mezzo-soprano,[344][345] she has received the Best Vocal Performance (Female) award from Anugerah Industri Muzik (AIM) thirteen times.[302] Adjie Esa Poetra, a vocal coach for Indonesian singers including Melly Goeslaw,[346] Nike Ardilla,[346] and Rossa,[346] reviewed Siti's vocals as "And in singing any songs, she will always sing with [a] relax but powerful [vocals] on top of possessing a vocal range of more than four octaves".[347][f] Pat H. Wilson of The Advertiser has called her timbre, "very pleasant".[344] Sameela Harris of The Barefoot Review reviewed Siti's vocals as, "They call her Asia’s Celine Dion, but one would argue that her timbre has a mellow superiority to that of the Canadian. Some say she sounds like honey; if so, only like the rich power of Manuka."[348]
Her voice has been a subject of admiration and appraisal from local and international singers. Singaporean-Malaysian singer and composer, M. Nasir once praised Siti as "The Voice".[349] He further commended Siti for experimenting with new music and songs and to play around with challenging vocal melisma.[349] English singer-songwriter Gareth Gates with whom she performed his song at MTV Asia Awards 2004 praised Siti as "She definitely has the looks and she certainly has the voice. If she continues to sing the way she does, she'll go really far."[350] Lea Salonga, Filipino singer and actress who covered Siti's song during her show in Malaysia expressed her admiration towards Siti and praised her voice.[351] Another Filipino singer, Gary Valenciano also expressed similar admiration and is open if Siti is interested to have him compose a song and sing a duet with her.[352] Similar admiration of praising Siti's vocals were echoed by American singer Babyface and British singer Sami Yusuf,[244][353] while Thai singer Tata Young called Siti, "Mariah Carey of Asia".[354]
Described as a coloratura mezzo-soprano, Siti’s voice ranges from middle to high pitch with lyrical elaborations. Stated simply, an amazing voice: brilliant, mellow and soothing, rich while smooth, sweet and enticing. Her voice qualities encompass far more than just vocal range, pitch control and volume, but also timbre, colour, and warmth. All of this she has mastered. Mellifluous, melodious, musical and robust.
—Jessica Byrne, Global Media Post[345]
Her live vocals have been the subject of positive reviews from both music critics and concert reviewers. Two of her Best Vocal Performance (Female) awards from AIM were from her live albums.[120][170] One reviewer from Utusan Malaysia in review of Siti's debut concert Konsert 'Live' Siti Nurhaliza wrote, "Siti used fully the advantages of her vocals for a solid and energetic performance."[355][g] She has also been praised for exhibiting great vocal control when singing vocally challenging songs.[343] In his review for Konsert Eksklusif Satu Datuk Siti Nurhaliza, Faridul Anwar Farinordin of New Straits Times highlighted Siti's performance of "Kurniaan Dalam Samaran", a song that she rarely performs live.[343] He wrote, "The Japanese-flavoured song required her to switch from her natural voice to falsetto in a hair-raising cadenza somewhere in the absurdly high range most women vocalists would cringe from. But she pulled it off effortlessly, sending shivers down my spine."[343] For the overall show, he also quipped, "Singing more than 30 songs, mostly in medley format, for more than two hours and without going off-key or out of breath, she deserves a gold medal for this musical marathon."[343]
Early in her career, she was known predominantly for singing pop and ballad songs.[356] In reviewing "Hati Kama" from Seri Balas, a traditional duet with Noraniza Idris, Kami of Berita Harian wrote her vocal type is not suitable to sing traditional Malay songs,[356] while Marina Abdul Ghani of Malay Mail echoed the same sentiment where she commented, "I must admit that I, and maybe the rest of her fans, prefer her singing "Cindai", or pop ballads like "Aku Cinta Padamu" or pop rock numbers such as "Bisikan Asmara"."[357] Siti agreed to the comments and commented, "[...] it is true that my voice sounds quite different in Cindai compared to my previous pop albums simply because I had to sing in a lower key for the asli songs"[358] and further added, "It is a learning process and I will do my best to perfect my rendition of asli numbers in future."[358] Siti showed improvement and mastery of singing traditional songs as her career progressed. Although Seri Balas won Best Album from 2000 Anugerah Industri Muzik, [89] it was only two years later she won her first Best Vocal Performance (Female) with a traditional album with Sahmura.[106] She further repeated her win for Best Vocal Performance (Female) award with her solo traditional albums with Sanggar Mustika and Lentera Timur with the latter also won the overall Best Album award in 2009.[134][213]

Growing up in a musically inclined family, her mother, Siti Salmah was a local traditional singer and her grandfather, Bachik Abdul Rahman was a famous local violinist.[17][21] Bachik used to play violin to traditional and classical Malay songs to entertain Siti and her family, while Siti Salmah used to sing old Malay songs.[22] She also used to follow her uncle, Abdul Rahim Bachik with his band, Family Group to invitational shows like wedding ceremonies and dinner parties which she has credited as helping her to gain more experience in performing live in public.[33][34] Her older brother, Saiful Bahri (Ayie) was a professional recording artist with two solo albums.[359] Seeing the success that her brother has achieved at that time, she was inspired to become a recording artist as well.[40] She named Malaysian singers Sudirman Arshad, P. Ramlee, and Saloma as her idols.[355][360] Siti has also credited popular singers including Barbra Streisand and Whitney Houston as her idols and sources of inspirations.[361][293] During her Dato' Siti Nurhaliza & Friends Concert in 2016, she performed "Memories" with Houston's prerecorded vocals.[293] She credited Houston and her songs for teaching her to sing with proper vocal techniques.[293] She also admires American singer Beyoncé for her confidence when she is performing on stage.[22]
She is well-known to be a big fan of Canadian singer Celine Dion.[362][363] She idolizes Dion's showmanship on stage and once commented, "I am truly a fan of Celine Dion and [I] make her as my idol in the singing industry. I try to absorb her energy when on stage so I can practice it when performing a show." [362][h] During her solo concert at Royal Albert Hall in 2005, her performance was drawn in comparison to Dion and she was dubbed as both Malaysia and Asia's Celine Dion by the British press.[16][161] When asked how she feels being compared to her idol, she answered, "I feel humble to be compared to Celine Dion. She's my idol. I have so much to learn and to improve on my stage performance. She will always be my inspiration and benchmark for excellence."[364] In 2008, she was given a chance to meet Dion personally during Dion's Taking Chances World Tour in Kuala Lumpur.[362] She recalled the experience as "exciting" and "unforgettable".[362] During the meeting, Siti gave Dion a signed copy of her album Hadiah Daripada Hati.[365]
Songwriting
[edit]As a lyricist, many of the lyrics that she has penned revolve around the theme of love. However, she has explored other themes as well including female empowerment[366] and appreciation to her fans.[367] She first contributed lyrics to her own album with "Demi Kasih Kita" which was featured in her second album, Aku Cinta Padamu.[368] She has since written lyrics to few of her own hit singles including "Biarlah Rahsia", "Bukan Cinta Biasa", and "Percayalah".[166][368][369] Her ninth solo album E.M.A.S saw four songs with lyrics written by Siti including "Bukan Cinta Biasa".[369] As a music composer, she has written a number of songs including "Cahaya Cinta", "Hati Berbisik", "Intrig Cinta", and "Penghiburku".[370]
She has written the music and lyrics to a few of her songs to mark important moments in her life. During the release of "Biarlah Rahsia", Mohammad Arif Nizam Abdullah of Utusan Malaysia opined that the song as Siti's love story which describes her struggles of having her love recognized.[166] A sentiment which was agreed by Siti who had openly said during the release of the parent album, Transkripsi.[166] She was quoted, "[Try to] understand the lyrics of the song ["Biarlah Rahsia"] if [you] want to know about my love story."[i][166] She has also written "Cahaya Cinta", a song dedicated to her husband, Khalid Mohamad Jiwa whom she got married in 2006.[371] She first performed the song live during their wedding on 28 August 2006.[371] To commemorate the birth of her children, she composed the music for "Comel Pipi Merah" in 2018 and "Anakanda" in 2021 for her daughter, Siti Aafiyah and her son, Muhammad Afwa respectively.[372]
First nominated for the Most Promising Young Songwriter Award by Malaysia's Music Authors' Copyright Protection in 2002,[368] she won the award in 2004.[373]
Musical styles
[edit]Siti's discography spans pop, R&B, traditional Malay and folk music genres.[357]Cite error: The <ref>
tag has too many names (see the help page). Although earlier in her career she's primarily known for her pop numbers,[358] she was actually born and raised in a traditional music inclined-family. Throughout her career, she has since released four solo traditional albums – Cindai (1997), Sahmura (2000), Sanggar Mustika (2002) and Lentera Timur (2008) as well as her duet traditional album Seri Balas, a collaboration with Noraniza Idris.[187] In 2009, she released her first spiritual album Tahajjud Cinta and an album primarily composed of classic Malaysian nursery rhymes and folksongs, Legasi in 2021.[206][374]
While she almost exclusively releases Malaysian Malay songs, she has also released a full English album, All Your Love in 2011 and recorded songs in Mandarin and Arabic.[140][233] "Kurik Kundi", one of the songs featured in Sanggar Mustika had Siti singing in seven dialects of Malaysia Malay.[375]
Stage performances
[edit]![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Siti_Nurhaliza_-_AJL_24_%282010%29.jpg/250px-Siti_Nurhaliza_-_AJL_24_%282010%29.jpg)
Siti has received praise for her stage presence and live performances. Siti first staged her debut solo concert Konsert 'Live' Siti Nurhaliza, at the age of 20 at the Stadium Putra, to an audience of 10,000 people.[82] Her first concert was lauded by concert reviewers and critics.[376][377] Hafidah Samat of New Straits Times wrote, "The show was no mean feat. How many entertainers can hold an audience spellbound for two hours non-stop, let alone a relative newcomer like Siti?"[377] while Azman Ahmad of the Malay Mail commended, "MESMERISING - not a single boring moment at all"[376] and praised her live vocals that sounded "as if the songs were spun from her albums".[376] Both writers from Utusan Malaysia and Malay Mail noted that while Siti appeared to be timid when she's not on the stage, she became more talkative and even cracking jokes for her audience when she is performing.[355][376]
Her performances on the international stage have received positive comments as well. Her one-night performance at the OzAsia Festival in 2019 was commended by concert reviewers alike.[344][348][345] Sameela Harris of The Barefoot Review wrote, "She is a smooth professional at the peak of a sensational career. She is she. No one else." while Jessica Byrne of Global Media Post recalled the concert experience as, "The overwhelming feeling in the room was love and acceptance, completely inclusive, enveloped in warmth and a shared appreciation of the artistic presence."[345]
Siti is well-known for bringing different attractions to her performances. This includes using sign language with a group of deaf and mute children,[355] gliding into her stage with a tightrope suspension,[378] marching with an M16 and accompanied by 100 officers from Royal Malaysian Navy,[378] performing magic tricks,[378] using a blowpipe on stage,[379] and playing various musical instruments.[355][380]
Public image
[edit]Earlier in her career, her choice of wearing modest attire and refusal to be photographed with male celebrities as fodder for gossip was criticized by the media and the public.[381][382] She quipped, "I'm happy if my career as a singer is not associated with negative issues."[j][381] Siti's choice of personal image was later highlighted and praised by Utusan Malaysia who commended Siti for not baring her body unlike some of her contemporaries but still being able to have an illustrious career.[382][383] She commented, "I opt to be moderate in everything, including in my sartorial matter."[k] and "I want to show my talent and my God-gifted vocal ability without relying [on the image of] being sexy."[l][382] Her decision to keep a clean personal image was also supported by Suria Records, her record label at the time.[384] In 2001, she was voted second sexiest celebrity in Malaysia in the 2001 Durex Global Sex Survey.[385] Siti however was uncomfortable of being viewed as sexy and added that in her opinion, "Sexiness is subjective."[385]
Her debut in Indonesia in 1997 with modest image was well received by the Indonesian audience.[386] Her popularity in Indonesia rivaled that of local singers and Adjie Esa Poetra who wrote for Indonesian Pikiran Rakyat even encouraged Indonesian artists and local managements to quickly compete and emulate Siti's success.[347] Indonesian Islamic preacher Abdullah Gymnastiar called her, "gift from God"[361] and praised Siti's decision of not baring her body to the public.[387] In 2008, Adhyaksa Dault, then Indonesia Minister of Youth and Sports cited Siti as an example that local singer Dewi Persik should follow, "Look at Siti Nurhaliza, she's not excessive, [she] does not wear sexy clothing or dance erotically, but she's well-known in her country and at the international stage."[m][388] Sofyan Djalil, then Indonesian Minister of Communication and Information Technology has also praised Siti as a Malaysian icon.[389]
During heightened tension between Malaysia and Indonesia in 2005, posters bearing her pictures were burnt in Yogyakarta by Indonesian protesters.[390] However, some of the right-wing nationalist protesters carried signs and chanted to "Ganyang Malaysia – Selamatkan Siti Norhaliza (sic)!" (Crush Malaysia – Save Siti Nurhaliza!) and "Siti Yes, Malaysia No!".[391] In 2011, Saiful Hadi, then editor-in-chief for Antara, Indonesian National News Agency and the Indonesian chief for Association of Malaysian and Indonesian Journalists proposed to have Siti as the "Cultural Ambassador" to help ease strained relationships between Malaysia and Indonesia.[392] Her image likeness was used as inspiration for Siti Malaysia, a cartoon character by Tourism Malaysia for advertising campaign to promote Malaysia to international visitors.[393]
From 2008 onwards she went through several phases of wearing a hijab.[242] In late 2007, she expressed her intention to adopt a new image of wearing headscarf upon returning from her hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia and adopted it by early 2008.[394][395] She commented, "If and when I do it, it will not be because of pressure from the media, or fans" and added "It will be purely out of my own free will and the calling from God."[394] She, however, received multiple negative criticisms for her choice of headscarves and for only wearing a full hijab for selected events.[396][397] In early 2013, at the age of 34, she decided to wear a full hijab even when she's performing on stage.[398][399]

Endorsements and partnerships
[edit]Siti's popularity and success have made her a popular choice in becoming an ambassador and spokesperson for various Malaysian and international brands and organizations. An author from Malay Mail once called her, "the holy grail of Malaysian advertising, promotions and sponsorship".[408] In December 1998, she signed a two-year contract with Maybelline as their ambassador, appeared in their television commercials, and promoted their cosmetics including their Wonder Curl mascara and Moisture Whip lipstick ranges.[409][410] In 1999, she signed up as spokesperson for Bleu mineral water and for Pepsi in 2000.[411][412] She also recorded Pepsi's theme song, "Ask for More" and appeared for their radio and television commercials.[412] In January 2000, Mitsubishi released 2,000 limited edition Trium Galaxy mobile phones bearing Siti's signature for RM788 each.[413] In 2001, she was chosen as spokesperson for Nippon Wiper Blade and led the parade of 2001 All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship race at the Sepang International Circuit.[414] In August 2002, she was revealed as TM Net's brand ambassador and was featured on their prepaid CD,[415] and in April 2003, she was selected to be the ambassador for Minolta.[416]

On 17 July 2006, Siti called for a press conference to announce her engagement and solemnization to Datuk Khalid Mohamad Jiwa on 21 August and their wedding on 28 August 2006.[426] During the press conference, she also explained her decision to marry Khalid and denied the accusations of being the cause of his divorce from his previous wife.[427] Attended by an estimated 200-250 members of the press, it was the first instance in Malaysian history for a celebrity to announce the details of their wedding via live television broadcast.[426][428] Zainul Ariffin of New Straits Times commented, "The last time I saw so many media people under one roof was at an international summit of global importance" while his counterpart Suraya Al-Attas wrote, "NO entertainment Press conference has seen anything like it. The turnout was nothing short of astounding".[429][430] Prior to his marriage to Siti, Khalid was married to Tengku Zawyah Tengku Izham for 20 years and have four sons together before their divorce on 1 February 2004.[431]
