There was a slight blip in C-actress Tang Yan‘s meteoric second act rise this year when she didn’t win a major Best Actress award that she was the front runner for but she’s not letting it harsh her glow. She walked the runway for Le Défilé L’oréal this week in Paris and absolutely held her own. Sure the dress and cloak … Continue reading →
I would say it’s been a great year for TW-actress Chen Qiao En (Joe Chen) as she successfully transitioned to the elder stateswoman role of evil stepmom in hit C-drama The Double and also got married. She’s 45 years old so playing the mom/aunt role isn’t a stretch it’s just that most of us remember her as the fresh ingenue … Continue reading →
I love C-actor Xu Kai despite his myriad limitations as an actor, he’s always watchable for me and I think he’s super derpy in real life and love that contrast. He’s contract with his long time agency run by Yu Zheng is coming to an end this year and reportedly he will renew, which was not always guaranteed as stars … Continue reading →
I’m still wrapping my head around it being 2024 and netizens angry that their fave star got married at a marriageable age to a long standing relationship?!? I’m talking about Wu Jin Yan and her recent bombshell news but it could be any star and any era and it feels like the para-social standards haven’t change much. As such, it’s … Continue reading →
This is the week of Mid-Autumn which is all about family and celebration so it’s especially galling to see netizens acting so insane and negative. C-actress Wu Jin Yan announced earlier that she was married to actor Hong Yao and while it was a total shock the initial response appeared to be mostly positive. Well that’s changed as she just … Continue reading →
Like I said before, for celebs sometimes bad news can be good news in terms of results and such is the case for C-actress Zhao Lu Si. There has been a lot of online media coverage and netizen chatter about her looks having changed as a result of plastic surgery. Her agency has remained silent and it’s resulted in heightened … Continue reading →
So there is more industry gossip on the sudden announcement of marriage with C-stars Wu Jin Yan and Hong Yao. They likely dated for six years since filming The Story of Yanxi Palace in 2018 and the industry gossip from various well known tabloid bloggers is that she is currently 4 months pregnant hence the going public with a marriage … Continue reading →
Top C-drama actress Yang Mi celebrated her birthday this week on September 12th and many of her industry friends and her huge fandom were there to wish her well. She turned 38 which is putting her in veteran actress category but one can’t stay young forever. It’s wild to me that I remember her at 19 years old and fresh-faced … Continue reading →
So that neither is an A-list star but still leading role material makes this dating rumor and the longevity of it all the more sweet. This weekend C-stars Zhang Xin Cheng and Li Lan Di were spotted on a late night walk at the park after leaving Zhang Xin Cheng’s condo. These two have had dating rumors since 2018(!!!) which … Continue reading →
So I’ve made my own determination as to whether C-actress Zhao Lu Si recently has undergone tweaks to her appearance, i.e. plastic surgery or merely non-invasive cosmetic procedures. My personal take on this is do whatever makes you happy until it affects your job, so for actors and actresses the line is when the change(s) look distracting for the viewer. … Continue reading →
Trying to be a Taiwan star but also work in Mainland China has been a delicate dance for decades now but has only gotten harder in recent years with both sides culturally and politically growing further apart. TW-actress Ariel Lin this year has been venturing back into Mainland Chinese projects and did a variety program. This week she got into … Continue reading →
This may come as a relief for K-actor Yoo Ah In in that at least he knows what his future is for this uncertain legal issue. The Seoul district court today sentenced the disgraced actor to one year in jail for a host of illegal drug use charges that started a year and a half ago in February 2023. I … Continue reading →
So it feels disingenuous for K-ent to cover extensively BTS member Suga and his recent drunk driving (drunk riding) scandal and police investigation and not cover this way more serious case. Thankfully the K-media is all over this one as well and for good reason because the allegations if true are baaaaaaad. K-pop star Taeil (Moon Tae Il), a member … Continue reading →
