Faye Wong & Li Yapeng: how to announce a divorce

How does one announce a divorce when you’re a celebrity with 16.8 million followers on Weibo, the Chinese Twitter? Write a one-liner and end it with a smiley face. All is well. At least that’s what Faye Wong did when she announced that she was separating from her husband of eight years, Li Yapeng.  …

Chow Yun-fat on HK’s MTR

This ought to be photo of the day, Chow Yun-fat taking the MTR in Hong Kong (photo via @TheGoldenRock, credit as tagged): It’s no big deal actually. In Hollywood, actors take the subway and buy their own coffee. It’s only in Asia that stars are somewhat pampered, driven around in chauffeured cars with bodyguards ready…

dammit, Roy Qiu, why you so pretty?!

(Roy Qiu…why you so hot part 20) Dammit, Roy Qiu/邱澤, why you so hot pretty?! That opening line by the way got me into a nasty fight with a Roy Qiu fan on Sina Weibo over a separate post (not in relation to these photos). The fan perhaps used Mr. Google Translate, which may have…

Roy Qiu, belated 生日快乐

(Roy Qiu…why you so hot part 9) Happy birthday Roy Qiu!!! Ah Ze is 30 years old… but why you so hot??? I suddenly had this urge to check out his 2003 drama with Rainie Yang, Original Scent of Summer. I can see the hotness already even back then despite the crooked teeth and I’m…

Golden Bell tolls for one idol each year

So another Golden Bell is over. Just as I suspected, an idol will win this year. And it’s Wilber Pan as best actor for Endless Love. Too bad Pan Shuai was not at the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall but he left this tearful photo and a message on his Weibo account @潘瑋柏: 昨晚拍了照但來不及謝謝大家 睡前也還是沒法回神…
