Lynn Xiong Straddles Traditional and Edgy Bridal Couture in Cosmo Bride Spread

With seemingly never aging HK-star Aaron Kwok in the gossip news recently after confirming his new relationship with a much much younger new starlet, all eyes are also trained on his ex-girlfriend model-actress Lynn Xiong (Lynn Hung). I’m glad Lynn’s not wallowing in misery or crying into a cup that Aaron has moved on, because she’s also moved on with … Continue reading →

Kris and Zhao Li Ying Crowned King and Queen of the 2016 Weibo Awards in Beijing

Nothing looks as good as having a hottie doting fiancee by one side, and the star couple of Chen Xiao and Michelle Chen were definitely the major standout at the just held Weibo Awards in China. I feel like K-ent holds its awards at year end whereas C-ent holds it in January, before the lunar new year end. Weibo is … Continue reading →

A Look at the Spectacular Fashion in Material Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 28, 2011 by ockoalaDecember 19, 2011

I make no excuses for raving about Material Queen when it first premiered, waxing in recap after recap about its merits both superficial (its breathtakingly gorgeous) and substantive (tightly plotted story with exhilarating character development). So when it hit a huge plot ditch in episodes 10-11, I took a break from recapping it hoping it would regain its footing and … Continue reading →

Lynn Xiong Hits Shi Ta Night Market to Promote Material Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 22, 2011 by ockoalaJuly 22, 2011

Our Material Queen Lin Chu Man isn’t so material anymore. Lead actress Lynn Xiong returned to Taiwan this week for additional promotional rounds for her drama Material Queen with Vanness Wu. At this point if Lynn does one MQ promo event, Vanness does another. They are like oil and vinegar, but I’m the happy bread soaking up their chemistry onscreen. … Continue reading →

First Impressions Look at Material Queen with Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 19, 2011 by ockoalaJuly 8, 2011

I am human, not a super-hero Koala or even a Koala who has discovered the means to bend space and time. With that said, I really am “my heart wants but my body cannot do” (a Chinese proverb for desiring to do something that you are physically incapable of) with respect to Material Queen. I watched episode 1 of the … Continue reading →

CTS Releases 25 Minute Preview for Material Queen with Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 11, 2011 by ockoalaJune 11, 2011

GUH. *Incoherent spazzing* I need. I want. I must have. CTS released a 25-minute preview for the upcoming TW-drama Material Queen, starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong. I watched it with stars in my eyes, totally entranced by the story and the indescribably beautiful cinematography. MQ is helmed by the PD who did one of the prettiest TW-dramas in the … Continue reading →

Material Queen Releases More Trailers and Vanness Wu’s Theme Song for the Drama

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 1, 2011 by ockoalaJune 1, 2011

We’re just two and a half weeks away from the premiere of the TW-drama Material Queen, and this is one drama where every single promo, still, and trailer gets me more excited about it, where initially I had zero interest. Unlike in Autumn’s Concerto, lead actor Vanness Wu gets to showcase his singer roots and grew-up-in-the-US crossover appeal by singing the theme … Continue reading →

NTV Releases BTS and Third Trailer for Material Queen and Interview with Designer Patricia Field

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 15, 2011 by ockoalaMay 15, 2011

This is it, folks. I’m officially sold. Do you accept credit cards, oh production of Material Queen? The upcoming TW-drama held a press conference this week with Lynn Xiong and Daniel Chan (Vanness Wu couldn’t make it due to scheduling conflicts) as the promotional train continues. While the more I watch the first trailer the more I love the trailer … Continue reading →

Material Queen Releases Official Stills and Second Trailer

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 13, 2011 by ockoalaMay 13, 2011

I can’t deny that I am extremely curious about Material Queen, the upcoming TW-drama starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong, which was filmed on location in Paris, styled by Patricia Fields, and helmed by the PD who directed the unbelievably beautiful Autumn’s Concerto. While the story doesn’t appeal to me right off the bat (hur, what do I know about … Continue reading →

Vanness Wu Tweets Confirmation that Material Queen Finally Completes Filming

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 2, 2011 by ockoalaApril 2, 2011

After filming intermittently for the past 6 months, which is quite long for a TW-idol drama (typical filming length is 3 months), Vanness Wu just tweeted today (accompanied by the sepia-tinted picture below) that filming has finally wrapped for Material Queen, which co-stars supermodel-actress Lynn Xiong. MQ has been plagued with production woes, notably its two stars being quite upset … Continue reading →

Update and New Stills From the Filming of Material Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 4, 2011 by ockoalaApril 2, 2011

It’s been awhile since there has been any news about the ongoing filming of upcoming TW-drama Material Queen 拜金女王, starring Vanness Wu and Lynn Xiong (model-actress-girlfriend of Aaron Kwok). The production has been filming for the past four months, and may be getting a Spring air date on SETTV. It’s from the same writer-PD combo that brought 2009’s surprise hit … Continue reading →

First Stills From Material Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 8, 2010 by ockoalaApril 2, 2011

I wasn’t planning on following or posting about the upcoming TW-drama Material Queen, but the first stills were released yesterday and I found them quite pretty. Mind you, the cast and story are still not all that enticing to me, but these stills are too visual eye-candy not to share.
