On 31st December 2019 (Tuesday), Neelofa served as a host for the popular weekly live television show “MeleTOP” for the very last time before officially stepping down.
Family members of the Kelantanese celebrity were in attendance. Not only that, several celebrity friends also came on as guests in the special episode, including Malaysian actor and current FINAS chairman Datuk Hans Isaac, much to her surprise.

According to co-MC Nabil Ahmad, fans have been demanding to see the “Laila Isabella” actor on the show for quite some time. “I kept on proposing for you to come to our show, even the internet crashed knowing that other people came instead of you,” the famed comedian jokingly told Datuk Hans. For those in the dark, both the “Lemak Kampung Santan” cast mates were rumoured to be dating in the past.
During the session, the “Jiwa & Lara” revealed that she has received a lot of calls from her colleagues when she announced the big news, including from the 48-year-old himself. “Among the things that I remembered was when Datuk Hans said that he knows that it’s a bit sad since the show means a lot to me. But once I have a clear picture on what I can achieve in the future, I will look back and say ‘I can do more things even without the show’,” said Neelofa.

When asked to share some cute anecdotes about Neelofa in conjunction with her final episode on “MeleTOP”, Datuk Hans said, “For me, Neelofa has done so much wonderful things in your life. I’ve always said that hosting “MeleTOP” could be seen as a good platform for her to expand her career to something bigger. Because she will usually plan accordingly, and will look at what will happen next.”
“She often told me ‘I want to do this so that I can help other people’. In this case, she will prioritise others first in managing her business. The second point would be her family, she is a bit extra when it comes to thinking about her family,” he further added. Neelofa interjected by asking, “Extra or extreme?”

Not only that, Datuk Hans also recalled back to the time during Neelofa’s earlier stint in acting. According to the “Cuci” film director, the former “Dewi Remaja” winner claimed that she could ride the motorcycle when in fact she couldn’t. “She was very determined in finishing the scene despite that she didn’t know how to handle the vehicle,” Datuk Hans told Neelofa and Nabil. That was a testament to Lofa’s determination.
He then concluded by saying, “Not everyone knows this but I’ve been a good friend with Neelofa for over 9 years, she doesn’t see things halfway. She travels around the world to represent Malaysia. She’s a true icon and inspiration to everyone out there.”

At the end of the show, the hijab businesswoman tearfully bid her final farewell to Nabil as well as her fans who came to the show. For those who don’t know, Neelofa has been the main anchor for the gossip and entertainment programme since its first episode back in 2012.
The video featuring Datuk Hans is currently trending at number 2 on YouTube as at time of writing. Check out the full clips here:
All the best to the Malaysian beauty 😉
