Unlike the other celebrity parents like Andie Chen and Kate Pang who sets up an Instagram account for their baby Aden, Fann Wong and Christopher Lee had only been posting pictures of baby Zed while he was sleeping. This is the first time baby Zed was "exposed" to the public as the power couple held a 1st month celebration on the 21st September. Many commented on instagram that baby Zed, who was born on National Day, look a lot like daddy Chris and one even joking asked if baby Zed's hair were styled by "Ah bu" David Gan. Photos from Fann Wong Facebook page.

Chanced upon a fellow blogger that chanced upon Carole Lin's Wedding News on Bridal Veil FB. Though Carole is no longer a full time actress in Mediacorp, I would still like to share the happiness with my fellow readers. Read the write-up by this blogger. Here's an interview with Carole on how she met her husband and planning the wedding.
I was attracted by her performance in 2013's blockbuster drama, The Journey, as Huang Zhen Niang. "Nya Nya" was my favourite character in the show. Hope she returns to screen in the near future. Photos were taken from Bridal Veil Facebook page. I'm not sure whether I should quote the word "EXCLUSIVE" from Toggle; cause the last I checked, Episode 1&2 are also available on Xin-First. Toggle users can just watch the whole series (13-epi) from Toggle. Here's a review from Xinmsn. P.S. Do you know the ending theme song were sung by Romeo Tan & Sheila Sim?
This would be the 3rd collaboration between Chris & Romeo after they played a May-December couple (with 7-8 years age difference) in 96 Cafe, and mother-and-son in upcoming Blockbuster drama, The Journey 2. Chris is known for pairing up with older males like Tay Ping Hui, Terence Cao and Thomas Ong, but in actual fact, Chris (31) is only 2 years older than Romeo (29). They again portray the younger-husband- older-wife in Good Luck (百岁大吉), though it wasn't specified how big is the age difference. Chris shares a witty text-conversation with Romeo: "Please stop calling me mother, please call me goddess!" and the latter cheekily replied " you are still my mother" About Shihui & Liu Xuan...Shihui (Chris Tong) has always been an independent, and a sensible girl who does not give trouble to her parents. An outstanding student both in conduct and studies, she joins the working world as an independent-thinking, modern woman. Opinionated and capable, she is savvy in seizing opportunities. She is employed in an auditor’s firm. Her excellent performance earns the boss’ trust. Shihui resents her father’s overbearing ways, which strains the relationship between father and daughter. Yunxiu constantly pesters Shihui to tie the knot, fearing that she will pass a marriageable age. This forces Shihui more than ever to evade the question. But all that changes when she meets Liu Xuan (Romeo Tan). Liu Xuan is good looking and charming, with an air of maturity. He can strike up a conversation with anyone and projects a mature demeanor. However, he is a boy at heart, and occasionally behaves in a way that raises eyebrows. Despite holding a Masters in Philosophy, he does not pursue fame and fortune. Full of passionate ideals, he gives up a well-paying job as a lecturer in an academy to teach in a Special Education school, helping children with learning disabilities. Liu Xuan meets Shihui and he finds out that she is a former volunteer at an orphanage. Deciding that she is the only girl he will ever marry, Liu Xuan woos her aggressively. In no time, Shihui and the younger Liu Xuan get together. Xiaohe vehemently opposes the relationship. The rebellious Shihui throws caution to the wind and enters into a “lightning” marriage with Liu Xuan. In marriage, both begin to notice each other’s differences. Shihui is subsequently awakened to the fact that the marriage is unstable and holding on to it tightly will only hurt both parties. In the end, she decides to part with Liu Xuan. But after the separation, both of them discover that they are unable to forget each other. Good Luck premiers 2nd February 2015, after You Can Be An Angel Too. Bonus: Romeo's abs at 18:55 (since I can't find a decent photo of them together)The Journey 2: Tumultuous Times (信约:动荡的年代) has launched its official homepage on Xinmsn. Blockbusters usually gets a pretty detailed homepage, do check it out for more behind the scene photos and their pre-production interviews. Tumultuous Times premiers 24 November 2014. Comments: Seems like there are a lot of politics involved in this drama, hope it doesn't get boring... I counted a total of 3-love-triangles: (Jeanette>Romeo>Felicia), (Romeo>Felicia>Andie)& (Carrie>Shaun>Jeanette) okay, lemme re-arrange: Carrie carries a torch for Shaun, who carries a torch for Jeanette, who marries Romeo, who carries a torch for Felicia, who loves Andie. confused? Main Casts profile:Hu Jia (originally called Zhang Jia), is an optimistic, loyal, street-smart and cunning child, is Tianying’s and Huiniang’s son. Not long after his parents passed away, he also got separated from his sister during a gang chase. Hu Jia (Shaun Chen) later stayed with Hu Weiren, hoping to avenge his father’s death. With Hu Weiren, he learnt many unorthodox tricks and became involved in secret societies and triads. He later became one of the leaders of a street gang, with loyal underlings. Although he is childhood sweethearts with Tang Shui Mei, his true love is actually Hong Ming Hui. Zhang Yan (Romeo Tan), a smart boy who always aced his studies, is the son of Tianpeng and Mingzhu. He is very self-confident, sometimes to the extent of sounding arrogant. He studied law in England, with the ambition of going into politics when he comes back to Singapore. He eventually joined Lim Yew Hock’s government and held an important post. However, his arrogance led him astray. To fulfil his aims, he would resort to extreme means and he also fell out with his brother Hong Dang Yong. Zhang Yan loves Ming Hui, whom he grew up with, but his true love is actually Zhang Min. However, as Zhang Min is his cousin, though not related by blood, he is hesitant to confess his feelings. He eventually married Ming Hui, though it ended up as a rocky marriage. Hong Dang Yong (Andie Chen), a handsome and energetic young man, is the eldest son of Hong Shi and Ya Zi. Idealistic by nature, he is deeply concerned with revolutionist ideas, and eventually joined the leftist in their fight for the country’s independence. The rivalry between Zhang Yan and him intensified when, apart from having different ideals, the two fell out over Zhang Min. Dangyong even plotted to assassinate the latter. After his arrest, he realized his mistakes and worked hard to get a law degree. He also eventually believed in a meritocratic society, where hard work is rewarded. He is childhood sweethearts with Zhang Min, and they got married despite several obstacles. Ming Hui (Jeanette Aw), a nurse, is Dang Yong’s younger sister. Although she looks frail, she has a strong personality and her perseverance does not pale in comparison to men. Everyone thinks that she and Zhang Yan are a match made in Heaven, but she discovered Zhang Yan’s true nature after marriage, and was estranged from him. She only kept up with the marriage so as to not worry her parents. Zhang Min (Felicia Chin),a simple and pure girl, is a Mandarin teacher at a Chinese school. She blames herself greatly for being separated from her younger brother Zhang Jia (Hu Jia) when she was young. As she grew up with Dangyong, she share his ideals and participated actively in student protests. Though Zhang Yan carries a torch for her, she remains steadfast to Dangyong even when he was on the run. Bai Lan Xiang (Carrie Wong), more common known as Tang Shui Mei (糖水妹), has a tough personality and fiery temper despite her sweet looks. Although she is just a street vendor, she has many suitors asking for her hand, whom she all rejected, as she only has one man in mind – Hu Jia. Even though she often bickers with Hu Jia, she shares a strong bond with him.
Casts from Season 1:
About Tumultuous Times...In the wee hours of the morning on 8 Dec 1941, Japanese planes attacked Singapore by air under the cloak of the night. This is the beginning of the period of unrest in Singapore. With the death of Tianying and Huiniang during the Japanese occupation, Zhang Min and Zhang Jia planned to go to Ipoh to seek shelter at Hong Shi’s and his wife Yazi’s place. En route to Ipoh however, Zhang Min and Zhang Jia were separated and the latter was severely wounded. After being rescued by Hu Weiren, Zhang Jia acknowledged the latter as his father, with hope of seeking revenge for his father’s death. Growing up by Hu Weiren’s side, the intelligent and agile Hu Jia learnt much about triads and shady dealings, and came into his own within a matter of years. Anti-colonialism sentiments were high after World War II. Zhang Yan and Dangyong, who were once close as brothers, drifted apart as both had different opinions on how Singapore should achieve independence. Dangyong joined the leftists, while Zhang Yan on the other hand, chose to join Lim Yew Hock’s government, seeking to wrestle for political power in a peaceful manner. As Zhang Yan scaled the political ladder, he began to lose himself, starting to make merry with the powers that be, engaging in debauchery and taking bribes on the side. He was also in charge of revoking the license of the Association of Secondary Schools and taking action against students in Sep 1956. This pit Zhang Yan face-to-face against Dangyong and Hu Jia, and the tense situation is about to erupt any minute… Photo Gallery:Here's a list of the airing dates (subjected to changes) for the upcoming dramas:
Wrapped/ Soon-to-wrap Drama(s)Apparently, the March-drama (Life is Beautiful) has concluded their filming as the casts (minus Rui En) and crews attended the wrap-party that was organised last week. Many actors (and actresses) has also wrapped their scenes for Jan-drama, You Can Be An Angel Too, like Rebecca, Bryan, Zheng Ge Ping, Zoe Tay, Xiang Yun and Aloy Pang as seen from their Instagram posts. After 4 months of intense filming, the casts and crews of The Journey 2 has wrapped their scenes in Malaysia. Other than newbie actress, Carrie Wong, who has wrapped her final scenes in Singapore, her Instagram post indicates that the other casts has few more days to go. Not-yet-startedThere are no news regarding the filming of Feb-drama (Good Luck) after the imaging sessions. Filming-in-progress Drama3 Wishes, stated to air after Against the Tide, is currently filming in progress. This is no surprise since Wawa Production usually has 2-3 rounds of filming (filming-short break-filming) as their scripts are produced simultaneously while they are filming. (YAY! to filming in episode-sequence. BUT Note: Not to be confused with 118, where filming and telecast are 2 weeks apart) 3 Wishes is still considered a drama that is produced prior to airing date. It's just that post-production (editing) doesn't take a long time as Wawa is an independent company, thus, starting (and ending) the game late.
Oh, yes. That's Hayley Woo (beside Shane Pow in the 1st photo above), twin of Mediacorp actress Jayley Woo. She'll be portraying Pow's girlfriend in the drama. |
