The long Chinese national nightmare is over. Ok, I exaggerate but goodness was this a bizarre and embarrassment saga for everyone involved. Married C-stars Li Xiao Lu and Jia Nai Liang released the same statement today via their respective agencies that they are already divorced. This caps a two year long tabloid fixture starting when she was caught cavorting with … Continue reading →
Man, I have never seen a publicly more put upon husband than C-star Jia Nai Liang. His marriage is on the rocks again this weekend with the release of two videos showing his wife C-actress Li Xiao Lu with his former good friend rapper PG ONE, the two having been linked nearly two years ago in a cheating scandal complete … Continue reading →
2019 already has the highest profile Chinese speaking entertainment scandal with singer Andy Hui on wife Sammi Cheng with starlet Jacqueline Wong. That ended with tears, snot, regret, and a forgiving second change. In 2018 last year started off with the cheating scandal of C-actress Li Xiao Lu on husband Jia Nai Liang with rapper PG One. That one was … Continue reading →
The current cheating scandal in C-ent with married Li Xiao Lu hooking up with rising young rapper PG One is really one for the books on how blatant it is. C-ent is firmly 100% on the side of cuckholded husband Jia Nai Liang, but then also rather pitying him for getting himself into this situation in the first place. Turns … Continue reading →
Scandal is the flip coin of popularity and comes hand in hand in case folks argue that stars should expect privacy in their personal lives. C-ent has been gripped and atwitter over an adulterous cheating scandal that erupted on New Year’s Day. Married C-actress Li Xiao Lu was outed by a famous tabloid gossip column for being out the evening … Continue reading →
It’s the annual Chinese Drama Awards in Beijing and this year’s gala including plenty of popular and familiar faces of C-ent. 2016 was a decent year for C-dramas though nothing hooked me quite like Nirvana in Fire did in 2015 and Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms is doing right now to start off 2017. I’m checking out … Continue reading →
There was plenty of glitter across both sides of the strait this past week – Taiwan held its highest television honors with the Golden Bell Awards while the popular Chinese and Korean stars alighted for the Bazaar Star Charity Night in Beijing. I concur with commentators who have noticed that Chinese and Taiwanese actresses tend to be way more fashion conscious and edgy … Continue reading →
Not often does an upcoming drama stroll along that I actually want to watch because it looks terrible. The glossy C-drama Destined to Love You totally fits that bill because I’m curious if the actual drama will turn out to be as unintentionally hilarious as the previews suggests. Starring Chen Qiao En, Jia Nai Liang, Bosco Wong, and Zheng Shuang, … Continue reading →
After the smackdown C-writer Tong Hua delivered to sleazy idea-stealing C-producer Yu Zheng last summer over the concept of an early Republic era military academy drama, both sides simmered down and I didn’t hear anything else about it. That’s why I was totally surprised to come across early filming pictures this week from the drama set, making me realize that … Continue reading →
This drama has been done filming since last year and I dang forgot it hasn’t aired until now. I rather like letting upcoming dramas slip since I’m not anxiously waiting for it. The modern Tong Hua novel Secrets Hidden in Time (被時光掩埋的秘密 which I unabashedly shortened to SHiT) has been remade into the C-drama titled Best Time (最美的时光) starring Janine … Continue reading →
I usually embrace change readily but one thing I remain adamantly old school about are wuxia dramas. I don’t do fantasy wuxia or RPG wuxia because it’s like some weird hybrid of silliness without the epic depth. I’ve watched a few of Tangren’s takes such as Chinese Paladin, Chinese Paladin 3, and Xuan Yuan Sword and none of them were … Continue reading →
Despite starting filming after the drama adaptation of Da Mo Yao (Ballad of the Desert), the other Tong Hua novel Secrets Hidden in Time will hit the small screen next month in early January 2013 as the drama Best Time starring Wallace Chung, Janine Chang, Jia Nai Liang, and Han Xi Ting. I’ve written my novel review earlier this year, … Continue reading →
Hurray for fervent prayers being answered! The cast of Best Time (the drama title for the adaptation of Tong Hua’s modern novel Secrets Hidden in Time has been changed to 最美的时光) held an open media day recently and tons of goodies were revealed. The best tidbit came from the PD who said 3 different endings for the drama are being filmed (which … Continue reading →
