DYT really put in lots of effort to toned up his bod. I find his bod not bad n he is one of the male actor who have huge nipples.

Dai Xiang Yu set to make a splash in new Chinese idol drama

 

Dai Xiang Yu lands a plum role in "Dive", a new blockbuster Chinese idol drama set in the world of competitive diving, and talks about whether his new name has anything to do with it.

SHENZHEN, China: Singapore actor Dai Xiang Yu is set to appear in a blockbuster Chinese idol drama called “Dive”.

 

Dai will star alongside Shen Jian Hong, Li Mao, Hong Zi Lin and Cui Bao Yue in "Dive", which revolves around the lives and loves of a group of youths involved with a university diving team.

 

Interestingly, Dai won’t actually have to do any diving.

 

The director cancelled his diving scenes as he wanted to accentuate the differences between Dai's character, the rich, gentlemanly Gao Gong Ping, and his romantic rival, diving team captain Xia Wen Yi (Shen).

 

While it might seem like a good thing that he doesn't have to go diving into the pool all the time, Dai expressed that he is actually a little disappointed it turned out this way.

 

“I have been working out to make sure I have a good physique for the show.

 

"I am actually quite sad they cancelled my diving scenes,” said Dai.

 

Dai Xiang Yu was formerly known as Dai Yang Tian, until he decided to change his name back in July, in a bid to “improve all aspects of his life”.

 

Today, he has landed a plum role in a big Chinese production.

 

Could his name change have something to do with it?

 

“I still had to work hard,” said Dai, explaining that he actually auditioned for the part and discussed his character at length with the production team before getting the gig.

Yang Tian is a much manlier name. 又阳又天

 

Xiang Yu sounds a tad like Xiang Yun.

This DYT is so stupid to blab to the press about his new China role when he hasn't even started filming.

 

The working culture in Chinese production teams is not as straightforward as in Mediacorp.  Till the day you complete filming, there's no guarantee you would be playing the character.  And even then who knows what the editor might do to your scenes.

 

I hope the writer kills off the character, then DYT can go fly kite.

 

And he's such an attention whore, posting pics of his cannot-make-it body when he doesn't even need to strip.  Attention whore.

did dai yang tian totally break off with mediacorp already?

 

No point staying in mediacorp, its like working as a civil servant and no new blood in the whole organisation - zheng geping, xiang yun, chen liping, all overstayed, acting from young to current, and appears to be unable to change job.  Many failed to see that this is a creative industry and one needs to constantly have new blood to revitalise the scene.

 

Back to DYT or whatever.  Staying in Mediacorp is pointless becoz there is no future in Spore's entertainment circuit, its too small, and the pay is very stagnant. But it will be very competitive for him to be able to make it big too in China, where there are tonnes of talents, better acting skills than he is and better looking than he is.

To be honest, DYT or DXY is so one-dimensional.

Good thing that his role in Little Nyonya was brief because he may have the looks but definitely not the acting skill.

Unlike his fellow Tiong (715), he has not improved his English proficiency and be more media-savvy.

 

Getting a role as 男二 means that he is only a supporting actor.

The focus will still go to the main actor.

His role as a goodie-two shoes wont bring him the exposure he desires.

Furthermore, is that serial going to be shown NATION-WIDE or just a local station only.

 

Recently I had been seeing older excerpts of him including Shanghai.

All I can say is that DYT/DXY isnt a good host and he is VERY STIFF in front of the television.

He sounds as if he is merely reading the lines out of the script - lacks personal touch.

'Gulp' that was the picture. Thanks! Wow. I thought he was wearing grey briefs. Though never saw him in gay clubs, his cousin used to frequent Rascals in the 90s.

His cousin used to look like Raymond Lam Feng couples years of ago.

Now looks like Mak Bao, the fat uncle.

Been watching "Gonna Make it", and start to like it.

 

Very refreshing, new cast. A big deviation from the usual RE, JP, TPH, XYW etc.

 

What's interesting most is Xu Bin. Really good looking. And the guy knows how to act with his facial expressions. Bright future indeed as far as acting is concerned. Too bad, not hunky. Would be great if he can pack some pounds and muscles.

Xu bin indeed not bad looking n if he toned up, he will look very nice. So how old is he?

After its debut at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Zoe Tay's film "Mister John" has gone on mainstream release in the UK and Ireland recently.

 

It is also scheduled for the Hamptons International Film Festival in the United States.

 

Zoe Tay's subtle, nuanced performance as a scheming widow who hid the circumstances of her husband's death, has won the applause of many movie critics in Britain.

 

Do you think Zoe Tay can be elevated to an international star?

Just based on the trailer, Ms Tay is seen in almost bareback dresses and seducing the male lead..

What a stereotype.. about Asian actors breaking into the Western movie-world!

She's a SPG.

Am not a fan of Zoe.. however, I chanced upon a recent short drama screened recently on a Saturday on channel 8.. Zoe had indeed improved as she ages.. her expressions are better now.

 

I was wondering how she can still appeared in a number of movies with her kinda acting..but now I am more convinced of her acting..she really has improved.

Yes, zoe has become more subtle and understated in her nuances. She truly brings across the message that she coveys without doig it in your face. Captivating, when you pick out the litrle minute twitches of her eyelid, or even the tremor of her lips to the way she runs her fingers across the sets, see it to believe it

It's excruciatingly painful to hear zoe speak in engrish. I tried so hard to understand what she's speaking I forgot to see her act. Why does Mediacorp insist its actors can also sing and dance and do everything else when it is obvious they really can't?

Mcs want their artistes to follow other countries like taiwan n hk, can act, sing, dance n host.

Yeah right......

Why are Zoe's supporters behaving so dishonestly and sneakily?  Are you ashamed to be supporting Zoe?

Hello have a life and move on.. I am seriously not her fan, so how on earth am I going to support her either opening or discreeting???? Jus my observation when I happened to chanced upon her show that's all..

You must be that Male Aunty who like to bash her.. Let go of your hatred and you will feel better.. God bless :)

Neither very youthful looking nor old looking but very slim for his age.

寻U先锋 briefly talked about how adam chen started out his career in acting during the ex-SPH channel U days. I thought that was a part of history that was supposed to be under rug swept

LOL at your comment. haha

and yup, to think that Jeanette Aw and Eelyn Kok were also "discovered" via the same talent search too =)

adam has the looks and the built (WOW at how he looked during the 寻U先锋 show just now, despite having to put on the silly-looking swimming cap).

a pity for his height, thus he was never really given leading lead roles to shine.

(only as far as i can recall, he was the male lead opp Felicia Chin in the school students drama X years ago)

 

now relegated to doing supporting roles only... sigh

http://sg.entertainment.yahoo.com/blogs/singapore-showbiz/post-break-former-actress-wong-lilin-doing-just-164347786.html

 

Looks like local actress Wong Lilin has come to terms with her separation with former beau, Allan Wu.

 

That was the vibe we got when the 41-year-old former actress and local TV darling spoke to Yahoo Singapore about starting afresh, getting back into acting and enjoying time with her children.

 

Lilin, who rose to fame in 90s crime television series Triple Nine, has decided to return to acting after being away from the limelight during the better part of her nine-year marriage to her Chinese American hubby.

 

“I’ve been a full-time mom for the longest time… and I am excited to get back into acting,” said the mother of two, who sat calm and composed before a performance at a Raffles Hotel Arcade art gallery called, Chan Hampe Galleries.

 

The radiant-looking Lilin, boasting a toned physique in her body-hugging and sleeveless cotton black dress, recently moved back to Singapore with her kids after splitting with Wu.

 

The family had left for Shanghai, China, in order to pursue better career prospects for her model hubby and "Amazing Race Asia" host in 2011.

So what was the cause of split?

 

While rumor has it the family's move to China three years ago was the beginning of when things started to go wrong, Lilin was unwilling to divulge much.

Speculation around the previously happily married couple began after both were reportedly spotted attending a mediation session for divorce proceedings in early August.

 

Shortly after, the couple's artiste management company Fly Entertainment confirmed the couple "reached a mutual decision to get divorced".

Media attention surrounding the split was comparatively muted, compared to the buzz around fellow celeb couple Joanne Peh and Bobby Tonelli’s break-up.

 

But throughout the interview, she remained calmed and composed with no hint of bitterness, even praising Wu's fatherly qualities.

 

“The kids are coping just fine. I think they are very resilient. Allan is a very loving dad as I am a loving parent as well. In that sense, they are not short on that [love]. Of course they would ideally like both parents to be together, but that simply is not the truth,” said Lilin, who added Wu still visits the kids regularly whenever he was in town.

 

“They [children] are not stupid. They know that you can have a family where your parents are together, and they also know when things are not going right. For them, nothing is different apart from the fact that their father and mother are not living together,” said Lilin, adding that she was honest when explaining the split to her children Sage, 8, and Jonas,5.

 

But Lilin and her children seemed to have coped perfectly well with the split.

 

“With the kids now in school, they’ll come back and will have a chat and a healthy snack, which can be a crepe or thin pancakes that are low in gluten. I encourage my kids to go out and play in the pool…sometimes they go cycling,” Lilin said after describing that her current house, rumored to be in Sentosa Cove, now has a larger space for her children to play in and it also has a swimming pool.

 

Lilin, meanwhile, is wasting no time getting back into the saddle of juggling motherhood with a busy career.

 

One of the pioneers of the Pilates movement in Singapore, Lilin is also the founder of exercising tool Loopz Fitness band and has been busy promoting it at fitness conventions.

 

The public can also expect to see more of her now that she has started acting again – she performed in an arts performance piece called “Future/Perfect”, which took place soon after this interview.

 

“I’m excited to be a part of this project and working with Tara Subkoff, who is the director. As well as Elizabeth [Lazan], who is so young and passionate about producing this project,” she said, adding that she is open to working for any interesting media projects and shaking her head when asked about directing and producing.

 

One thing, though, has not changed, and that's her tendency to shy away from media publicity.

 

Appearing awkward and nervous as this reporter snapped shots of her with a smartphone, it's something she'll have to get used to again.

Welcome back to Singapore, Lilin.
