Keongomaniac Person of the Year
The Honorable President Barack Obama was already named the Keongomaniac Person of the Year on the day of the presidential elections in November 2008, i.e even before he was named President. This award is the most prestigious recognition in the Persons Category, usually reserved for important pioneering figures. In 2007 it was given to Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor, the first Malay to go to outer space. For 2008, it is without any doubt President Obama deserved the recognition, for being the revolutionay first non-White president of the United States of America.

Keongomaniac Male (Artiste) of the Year
The Keongomaniac Male of the Year award this time round caused a 'subtle panic' for its lack of contenders, as compared to Female of the Year, where the royal battle between two Queens were engaged. However eventually it is agreed that Sir Heath Ledger (knighted on Feb 2008 with The Sword and Shield of the High King by The Keongomaniac a month after his untimely demise in January) would receive the honour as the Keongomaniac Male of the Year for his role as The Joker in The Dark Knight. This is to be the first of many awards for The Dark Knight. Sir Heath's honourary blue tile is filled in black as a mark of respect.

Keongomaniac Female (Artiste) of the Year
The result is out, and with no clear winner the Battle of the Queens end with a peaceful draw! Both Queen Mariah and Queen Natalie are named co-winners of the Keongomaniac Female of the Year recognition. But can 2 Queens really reign at the same time? It seems Haz Wayne's World might just be big eno
ugh for both of them. Mariah Carey rules the singing arena, while Natalie Portman remains number 1 in the movies.
Queen Mariah makes a undisputed conquest with latest album E=MC2, cementing her royal status af
ter her previous comeback album The Emancipation of Mimi. She is set to win big this year at the Keongomania Awards, and has been tipped to win the most number of awards, which would officially rechristen year 2008 as "The Year of Mariah Carey". Other contenders are Sir Heath and The Dark Knight movie.
Queen Natalie became Queen onscreen again in 2008 in The Other Boleyn Girl, a historic movie which was given full Keongomaniac Fivestars. From Queen Amidala to the Queen of England, she also was the youngest member in the jury for the prestigious 61st Annual Cannes Film Festival in May. This has been a great honour and is a testament on how respected she is as an artiste within renowned circles.
2007 Keongomaniac Female (Artiste) of the Year: Megan Fox (Movie, Transformers)
Keongomaniac Newcomer of the Year
This is one of the new recognitions introduced in this 3rd Keongomania Awards. The Keongomaniac Newcomer of the Year is awarded to Blake Lively from the popular TV series Gossip Girl, where she is plays the hawt Serena van der Woodsen! Several critics have pointed that while the move to include a Newcomer of the Year is commendable, it makes Megan Fox, who was a newcomer in 2007 seem unworthy of taking the Keongomaniac Female of the Year title that year. The Keongomaniac nonetheless stand by the decision.
PERSONS CATEGORY: Characters
Keongomaniac Hero of the Year
In Haz Wayne's World where Superman is venerated, Batman tried to dethrone the Man of Steel with the highly-acclaimed movie The Dark Knight. This however proves to be of no avail as the honours goes to High King Peter (acted by William Moseley) in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, and yes surprisingly Clark Kent from the
Smallville TV series acted by Tom Welling. Superman again steals Hero of the Year!
Peter, the eldest of the royal siblings of Narnia, has always been The Keongomaniac's favourite character in the book series, and his character has been delivered extremely well by William Moseley in the latest Prince Caspian. On the sidelines, William Moseley has been joked to be receiving The Sword and Shield of the High King knighthood (the highest honour in Haz Wayne's World), given that he portrayed the High King himself.
2008 also saw the most number of purchase for the Smallville series DVD boxset, a groundbreaking complete Season 1 to 5, which is just a shy 2 seasons away from the entire series. This contributed to Clark Kent's win as the Keongomaniac Hero of the Year. In 2007 which was The Year of Harry Potter, Harry Potter won the Hero of the Year together with Superman.
2007 Keongomaniac Hero of the Year: Harry Potter, Superman
Keongomaniac Villain of the Year
Perhaps of no surprise to anyone at all, the late Sir Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker is named the Keongomaniac Villain of the Year. It is one of the early recognitions that was announced during the course of 2008. A second win for Sir Heath, and a first of many for The Dark Knight movie. Narnia gets another recognition too with a Special Mention for Italian actor Sergio Castellitto for his superb portrayal of King Miraz, the usurper uncle to the titular Prince Caspian.
2007 Keongomaniac Villain of the Year: Lord Voldemort
