Thanks, you're right and sweet :thumb:

You are so welcome.

Anyone with eyes can easily tell what you're refering to.

Credibility is optional but taste is essential. :thumb:

Chen Liping used to be so versatile in the 90s. :thumb: :clap:

In The Web, she plays a bored and lonely housewife who surfs the Internet for solace, without realising she's become a prime suspect in a murder. :ph34r:

I missed the times when she was a young, svelte thing playing volleyball and acting as an endearing, village school teacher. I loved her dubbed voice too. LoL

Breaking news

Very mixed feelings wrt Quan's winning.

Happy, certainly, that she is representing sg.

Not really, because, if not for the fact that her foundation training were done in Taiwan, would her linguistic eloquence be the same as today?

Wait a minute, what kind of an award is this?

Are the participating TV stations comprising public TV stations or national TV stations, limited to only Chinese (not Cantonese) shows? Or any other criteria?

If so, there are few competitors and therefore it is not difficult for Mediacorp to win some awards.

From Baguatv Blog:

Organized by the Hong Kong Televisioners Association and China TV Production Committee, The Asia Rainbow TV Awards saw a total of 13 countries including China (Hong Kong and Taiwan inclusive), Japan, Korea and Singapore vying for awards in 24 categories.

Quan Yifeng won Asia's Best Host based on her hosting performance in MediaCorp Channel 8's Life Transformers 2 《心晴大动员2》(with Christopher Lee).

Her win is made even more credible by the fact that the panel of judges were from Hong Kong and China, not Singapore.

Her charges: Discreet encounter: S$3000

Overnight: S$12000

Even Julian Hee offering 10% of that for overnight encounter, I will have to think twice, might as well tell her to rob the bank!!!

Instead of cheapening herself like this, she should learn to hook a rich tycoon and get a free car, free hotel stays, free clothes from designer boutiques, etc. Just don't let the rich tycoon's wife know can already.

From Paul Chan's blog:

3 outstanding female artistes and 1 male lead will be selected to play the 3 most important songstresses roles and the musician role…

上世纪40年代,战火遍布,风雨飘摇。上海丽明歌舞团的两大台柱――于红、宋巧儿却在舞台上争得面红耳赤。宋巧儿视于红为眼中钉,誓要除之而后快。于红不愿被宋巧儿踩在脚下,竭力反抗。二人明争暗斗,势同水火。于红和宋巧儿的斗争随着南来愈显激烈,宋巧儿欲一举铲除于红,但于红不惜出卖肉体进行反击,终取代宋巧儿,升为剧团一把手,红遍全星洲。

青年音乐家莫理广从上海来到第二次大战爆发前夕的星洲,投靠远房亲戚。他是个书呆气很重的“文艺青年”,爱幻想,醉心音乐,对人情世故毫不敏感,常闹出不少笑话。他在南来的船上邂逅于红,对她一往情深。

刘九妹身世凄凉,从小被养母当成摇钱树,到处卖唱,后来还在新世界歌厅当“汽水妹”,饱受欺凌,但她生性乐观,更会苦中作乐,整天幻想自己有一日能在舞台上载歌载舞。她与莫理广患难与共,爱上了莫理广,但莫理广却心系于红,九妹只好把爱深藏心底。

于红邀请莫理广进剧团,并为被卖入妓院的九妹赎身。九妹视于红为救命恩人,对她充满感激,但于红却发现九妹的歌舞才华是对她的威胁,她想办法压制九妹,但事与愿违,九妹在宋巧儿刻意的督导下,歌舞突飞猛进,于红为保住自己的地位,欲除掉九妹,就像当年宋巧儿欲除掉她一样。

随着大战即将爆发,局势混乱,大家的命运又会如何?Before the start of World War 2, the war of the women already begins with 宋巧儿, 于红 and 刘九妹 entangling many other characters with them... including the likeable No.1 male lead role 莫理广.

This drama is going to be a big flop. The storyline is too similar to Memoirs Of A Geisha or that SBC drama 舞榭歌台, or even the HK drama No Regrets!

And 1930s and 1940s music is a totally different thing from pop music altogether. If MCS wants to do such a historic show, show some bloody respect and realism by adding 夜上海 etc. Don't waste money creating new songs that would not get anyway near those days.

Paul said 3 outstanding female artistes

Someone suggest that old toad to be the main songstresses.

He must be out of his mind. :wacko:

I know what you're talking about. I read this comment on Paul's blog promoting her for the role of 宋巧儿 due to her "sexy low voice". *smacks forehead* :rolleyes:

It's a songstress, not a howling demoness in a horror movie.

Give it to her and it's another show ruined.

looking at the scipt, i hope they select actresses who can sing and dance. not just able to look good.

At least throw them to intensive training to horn their singing skills

Fully agree, such roles shouldn't be given to actresses who are popular or seemingly popular. They will only disgrace themselves if they can't perform up to mark.

Good acting is the first criteria, those who cannot act properly should be filtered out.

Next is the ability to sing and dance, those obviously sound like toad should know their limits. :thumb:

Those actresses who look too old or unsuitable for the roles of the Shanghainess songstresses or who look weird in cheongsam should also be excluded.

Look like drag queen also exclude.

It's a Shanghainess songstress role, not a gay host in a strip joint

Those with like to look like sluts also exclude.

Those who attempt to strip irrelevantly in a role.

It's not a brothel show on prostitutes, the songstress shouldn't look like a streetwalker or a old mamasan whore.

As long no Jeanette Aw can liao. I mean c'mon, they have featured her in 3 year-end blockbuster series consecutively.. Obviously favouritism is at play.

I hope they pick Ann Kok and Fann Wong as the 2 feuding singers, and Rui En as the jiu mei. Den Qi yuWu as the male lead. what do uall think of it?

The character Yu Hong is a slut who sold her body for fame.

The scriptwriter is so thoughtful, got a role for all types of actresses.

Based on a true story???

Maybe the scriptwriter already have a slut or whore in mind when he was writing the role? :unsure:

Totally agree. Not so concerned about favouritism but it's certainly very boring to watch her in 3 year end blockbuster consecutively, and in such period drama.

The above cast would be ideal 10 yrs ago.

The 2 senior songstress, at the prime should be around 25, at most. So, seriously, Fann & Ann will be too old to play even the 2 senior ones. Watching the 2 of them playing these roles will be like watching Zoe Tay playing Ye Yicen.

I would prefer Eelyn Kok to play the most senior, follow by Joanne Peh to play the other one.

For the youngest songstress, I would think that pingpong gal, Teresa Tseng would be an ideal choice. She still able to exude the innocence of a teenager, since she is about 20 yo.

For the guy, his character role is around 25 yo. So, the oldest male lead compatible to eelyn and jp should be Elvin. My concern is, any other younger guys such as ZZH, DYT etc, in mid 20s, might not be compatible with the 2 ladies.

The problem is that Eelyn is totally unconvincing as a senior competitor to someone like Joanne Peh. And the youngest role is obviously crafted for Jeanette Aw.

Eelyn has been undergroomed these yrs. She has the height and she will look fabulous in qipao. IMO, she is in same level with 7Ps, if not better. Alas, age factor is not really on her side anymore.

As for Ouxuan, I agreed that she would be a good choice 10 yrs ago, or even at least 5 yrs ago. But too bad, age is against her too. She simple doesnt have the aura of a teenager or even a young 20s anymore. Going ahead to cast her as the young songstress would be akin to the repeat of the joke of Zoe's Ye Yicen. My next concern is, given her height, would she be able to bring out the appeal of an qipao clad songstress.

Can somebody explain the hatred for superstar Zoe Tay? :unsure:

If she only has a few anti fans, it is understandable that some people are jealous.

But now it seems like people don't even bother to watch her show at all and everyone is getting more critical regarding her.

Need to explain meh?

Superstar, queen, no. 1 ah jie, my arse.

She's just one old overhyped talentless attention-seeking old hag with an unparalleled track record of flops and controversies since 2005.

Tell her to get lost, we don't want to see her any more!
