So I don’t know if it was worth her stand but it’s her choice and whatever happens happens. C-actress Sun Li was filming a thriller C-drama Zhi Mi 執迷 or Obsession with Taiwan actor Chris Wu (Wu Kang Ren) earlier this month when she left the production which was reportedly due to her protesting Chris being the male lead after … Continue reading →
Zam, those hair horns really are ready for official debut lol. Xianxia C-drama Love Beyond the Grave is currently midway through filming but still managed to drum off the first official character posters for Tencent to showcase. Starring Dilraba Dilmurat, Chen Fei Yu, Wei Zhe Ming, and Sun Li, the drama seems so dark and dreary, a combination of the … Continue reading →
So this is like a High Noon standoff and I’m fascinated on the eventual outcome. Top C-actress Sun Li started filming a new thriller modern C-drama with award winning TW-actor Chris Wu (Wu Kang Ren) in his first foray into C-ent. She’s filmed for over two weeks but then went on strike (did not officially drop out of the drama) … Continue reading →
TW-actor Chris Wu (Wu Kang Ren) has been a fave of mind since he debuted nearly two decades ago and he’s become so established and award winning I would compare him to the TW-ent version of K-ent’s Namgoong Min. In those years he’s worked only in Taiwan but that’s changed now as he signed with a Mainland Chinese agency last … Continue reading →
There are SO MANY new and young acting stars in C-ent it’s actually made me drop off most of my C-drama watching because there are no true stars (yet) in that generation which captivate me like the group which launched the mid-aughts. This year Marie Claire China held a Women in Power evening night out that clearly had the dress … Continue reading →
The list is out and there are 17 names on it. The good news is that if a star’s name is on it that means said star is an A-lister and one of the top earners in C-ent. The bad news is that the stars on the list were just summoned by the Chinese tax authorities for a meeting and … Continue reading →
I love gorgeous stars and throwback fashion, and when the two are combined together it’s too pretty not to share. The Chinese actresses are still hewing closer to retaining their own individuality and unique beauty rather than converging towards a homogenized norm that is happening too much in K-ent, and with the different types comes more creativity in pictorials. I … Continue reading →
C-dramas has a new big hit on its hands and continues the legend of C-actress Sun Li popularity and savvy in picking projects. Her Legend of Zhen Huan remains an iconic work of the past decade in terms of court period dramas and two years ago she did the Legend of Mi Yue with also popular success. Now she’s back … Continue reading →
Chinese-speaking entertainments best and brightest stars were out in mega force this past Friday for the annual Bazaar Star Charity Night. There were so many pretty faces and fashionable attire it’s impossible to pick a post topper so I’ll go with the pregnant and glowing Ruby Lin in a flowing caftan Elie Saab red dress and her head shaved hubby … Continue reading →
C-netizens are buzzing about Feng Shao Feng‘s high profile current and ex-girlfriend being spotted in the same dress, which isn’t all that problematic but for the two ladies being visually very similar in goods and aura. A-list actress Ni Ni recently attended an awards ceremony in Gucci‘s long blue flower pattered dress, and the same recently appeared on rising young … Continue reading →
Oh what one breakout role in a breakout drama can do for an actor or actress, and this is especially true in Mainland China where the competition is fierce due to the sheer number of talented and gorgeous actors and actresses vying to shoot into superstardom. If 2011 started off with Yang Mi and Feng Shao Feng’s big break with … Continue reading →
After the blockbuster success of Painted Skin in 2008 (starring Chen Kun, Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei, Donny Yen, and Sun Li) the director is once again digging into the classic book of Chinese supernatural folktales from whence the Painted Skin story originated. His follow-up movie will premiere at the end of September 2011 – it is called Painted Wall (English title Mural), … Continue reading →
