The battle is fierce to be the 7th member of the exclusive Golden Eagle Goddess ranks, even if it means being decked out in enough gold, sparkles, and sequins to blind good taste. The biennial Golden Eagle Awards celebrates China’s top television shows, dramas, and acting, with the award having a Golden Eagle Goddess to open the proceedings starting in … Continue reading →
For the past few weeks there have been non-stop rumors that C-actress Zhao Li Ying is pregnant. It’s a pretty ridiculous and far fetched rumor to spread but strangely this one has legs and this week the pregnant murmurings added an additional layer of getting married which is when I decide to at least post about it. According to the … Continue reading →
Wax figures at Madame Tussauds isn’t the only way for stars to have their own dopplegangers, ever since the advent of cinema there have been body and face doubles during filming. I’m not sure if there’s as lucrative a business as being a famous person lookalike in China, i.e. earning money to attend parties and whatnot, but there’s certainly something … Continue reading →
I love self-deprecation especially in the entertainment industry since it can get too pompous and self-congratulatory. The 2017 C-star Awards were a blast to watch because it was just stars being sincerely thankful to be popular and having fun being a little bit silly. The winners all had to receive a prize that was either a vegetable or fruit, and … Continue reading →
Chinese actresses continue to stun and push boundaries of star red carpet and awards dressing and the latest event held by the video streaming portal iQiyi showcased four famous stars to their best and unique glory. Yang Mi went with black with gold accents and fun draping, bringing it all together with her adorable small screen son from the C-drama … Continue reading →
Filming has started for high profile 2019 period C-drama The Story of Ming Lan, with the mouthful Chinese title of 知否知否应是绿肥红瘦 (Zhi Fou Zhi Fou Ying Shi Lv Fei Hong Shou which means Don’t you know? The Green should be Plump and the Red Lean). It’s adapted from a popular novel much like many recent period C-dramas, and this one gets the … Continue reading →
When I made a comment about C-actress Guli Nazha being really beautiful but also really really thin at the Fendi Milan fashion show last week, I did not think she would get a run for her money immediately. Then came Dilraba Dilmurat also in Milan for Dolce & Gabbana and she is also model lithe, but neither can hold … Continue reading →
C-ent must’ve been thrilled to hear in recent months that popular stars Zhao Li Ying and Feng Shao Feng were cast as the leads in an upcoming time-travel period C-drama. The two filmed a movie last year and afterwards have been embroiled in dating rumors stemming from being seen together entering and exiting a residence parking garage in what appeared … Continue reading →
The Chinese-speaking glitterati was out in full force this weekend at the 15th annual Bazaar China charity event held in Beijing, with many reasons to check out ranging from couple sighting to once again C-stars showing that they do high fashion right. Married Taiwanese acting couple Ruby Lin and Wallace Huo stole the spotlight by making their first public appearance … Continue reading →
K-ent has been having too much fun with big star dating news this past week, time to share the buzz with China and it’s a doozy at that. Top Chinese stars Feng Shao Feng and Zhao Li Ying were spotted all masked and trying to look incognito while out on a date, but their cover was blown multiple ones. The … Continue reading →
It’s equal parts Chinese and Korean starlets when it comes to what the Chinese netizens think are the top echelons of Asian beauty. A Baidu poll this month voted by Chinese netizens ranking the Top 10 Asian Beauty is a rather surprising but not all that controversial list, with basically a who’s who of the ladies that are frequently mentioned … Continue reading →
New and dramatically sideways drama posters for upcoming big budget period C-drama Princess Agents has me mildly hopeful I can find a new C-drama worth watching. Can’t say I love either leads Zhao Li Ying or Lin Geng Xin but I don’t dislike either as well and have heard lots of buzz around this particular project since it was announced. … Continue reading →
This past weekend was the kick off red carpet of the 2017 Beijing International Film Festival, only in its 7th year since starting in 2011 and with plenty of catch up needed to rival the biggest Asian film festival granddaddy the Busan International Film Festival going on strong since 1996. Aside from the whole government approval thing, there is no … Continue reading →
