This is one of the most foolish "news" I've ever read in history: Julia Perez admitted that she saw Nyai Roro Kidul's eye (on the painting) blinked to her when she entered the 308 (or something like that) room in a hotel I forgot the name (a famous hotel for having a specially dedicated room for the queen of southern ocean - the title of Nyai Roro Kidul, one of the most famous legend of Javanese - Mataram Javanese, especially those living in southern coastal areas). That was after this Julia did the rituals of showering with I don't know how many kinds of flowers and eating rose petals (or jasmine petals) like the late Suzanna, the legendary horror movie actress, did.
It is on Yahoo OMG id news. Wow. An insult to intellectuality indeed. This is 2012, and in Indonesia this is still considered a news. The TVs covered it. The gossips tabloids put it on headlines. The internet gossips pages too. I could not and would never been able to understand why she is even a news maker, and when will this country will move from its full of superstitions daily life which is fully exploited by the cheap news agencies? Somehow, I agreed with the communists: superstitions and fatalism are the pathogen of our society (sorry for improperly quoting).
