Exclaim on November 11th with Jay Chou

Jay Chou's upcoming album, "Exclamation Point", will be released on November 11th, 2011 through multiple outlets including TV, Youtube, and cellphones through SMS. To break through the traditional CD release, Jay will be releasing a USB edition that includes the album cover, the song book, and all the MVs at the price of NT$1,698 (~$57USD).

With his album set to come out, he has once again been in the midst of rumors and scandals including one with his new "J girl" Hannah Quinlivan, infuriating Jay once more. Thus, even though he is currently abroad, he has not neglected to ask friends to lead the paparazzi astray. He has even used the lyrics and MV to one of his new songs to metaphorically describe the relationship between him and the paparazzi -- and it's not too pretty.

Jay's "Exclamation Point" album is now available for preorder on YesAsia!

Calvin Chen wants to kiss Weng Tzymann?

Smile Weng Tzymann will soon be releasing her debut album titled, "Love Me". She was filming a MV for her new single, “It’s Okay”, at Yilan County yesterday. The MV is about a girl who has been dumped by her boyfriend but continues to be strong. She especially invited Calvin Chen, her co-host on “Apple Entertainment News”, to be her MV’s male lead. There were many scenes of the two affectionately gazing at each other, but it wasn’t enough for Calvin as he requested to the director to add a kissing scene, which gave Tzymann a shock.

Weng Tzymann arrived in Yilan at 7am to start preparing.

Tzymann has starred in Fahrenheit’s “Stay” MV before. And now that she and Calvin co-host NextTV’s entertainment news show together, they have developed a deeper friendship; Tzymann described themselves as “buddies”. As a result, Calvin agreed to film the MV at no charge. Tzymann expressed, “We had a lot of trouble deciding on whom we should ask to be the male lead of the MV. I couldn’t believe that after Calvin heard about it, he recommended himself.” As for whether there is any possibility for their friendship to turn into a “love relationship”, she answered like all other celebs do, “I haven’t thought about it much. We are only good friends right now.” Tzymann’s mom, who was accompanying her during the shoot, expressed that she did not know how to respond to that question, but complimented Calvin for being a nice guy.

Calvin was much more playful on the other hand and kept shouting on the set, “Let’s fall in love!” He also said to Tzymann affectionately, “I risked being bashed by the public and hunt down by the fan boys to film this MV, so you must go out to dinner with me!”

Khalil Fong to go to Taiwan by boat?

Hong Kong pop singer-songwriter Khalil Fong will be holding a concert at the Taipei Arena on December 17. However, getting to Taiwan will be the biggest obstacle as his doctor advised that he cannot ride in an airplane due to pneumothorax. Since there are no steamboats that carry passengers from Hong Kong to Taiwan, the concert organizers expressed, “If in the end, the doctor deems that he will not be able to adjust to the air pressure on the plane, we will make arrangements for him to come by boat.”

Since Khalil has not been able to ride in an airplane, for his performance in Beijing last Saturday, he rode in a car from Hong Kong to Shenzheng then took the train from there to Beijing; his ride to destination took over 24 hours. However, he commented, “You can enjoy the scenery while riding on the train and experience the different characteristics of each local area.” Knowing that he might need to go to Taiwan by boat, he expressed, “I’ll be able to feel the unrestrained and vastness of the sea.”

Khalil considers his guitar as his “wife”. For the concert, he revealed that he will perform with seven of his “wives”. He laughed, “I started learning how to play the guitar when I was 15, and it was the first instrument that I learned. I took my guitar lessons as if I was with my first love. My first love has become my wife now!” He further revealed that he won’t be doing anything fancy for the concert and won’t be changing his outfits often.

Apparently, the trio had indeed taken a vacation to Japan together!

According to the witness’ account, President Chou appeared reticent while maintaining his distance from Hannah on the streets of Japan.

Will Pan bashed for upset win at Golden Bell Awards

Will Pan was the biggest upset win at the Golden Bell Awards. He returned to Taiwan yesterday to hold a press conference; facing the media with mixed feelings, he took many deep breaths and even cried three times where he went back to the backstage to calm himself. Due to the enormous pressure of the award, his hair turned white overnight, which he had to get his hairstylist to help him dye it before the press con. Nonetheless, he still wanted to thank the public for their criticisms and expressed that he will work even harder.

Since there was not enough transparency with Golden Bell, many nominees who lost have been criticizing the award. Will Pan has even been called the darkest dark horse, who won best actor with his role in the idol drama, “Endless Love”. Although his career has just reached new heights, he has also been drowned with negative criticisms.

Will was supposed to be holding a press conference to celebrate his win, but he was hesitant to hold the award and even stepped backwards when the host presented it to him. When he was giving his speech, he became emotional and turned around to cry.

During the two rounds of voting for best actor, Will Pan led all the way, but many felt that his acting was not worthy of the award. Will commented, “I started out as an idol, but I don't want it to be my fate.” Thinking back at how he rose to fame from filming the TV series, “麻辣鮮師” (Spicy Teacher), he worked hard for the public to finally accept him as a singer, “Many people don’t have hope for me, but I will continue to work hard.”

There have been all sorts of criticisms, but even Will had to laugh when he heard someone comment that “even Wu Den-Yil could act better than him.” Regarding veteran actor Wu Peng-Feng saying that “even Jin Shi-Jye could win by just acting with his eyebrows,” Will agreed, “Even his hair can act better than me.” He added, “I really admire Teacher Jin (Jin Shi-Jye)’s great temperament.”

Will has only been in three dramas; when he starred in “Miss No Good” two years ago, he even felt that he was “retarded” as couldn’t do his scenes well with his costar Rainie Yang. He laughed, “She must have wanted to kill me back then.”

Wilber shocked, called Rainie and cried

Last night Wilber Pan performed in Zhengzhou, China and watched the Annual Golden Bell Awards via the internet where it was 10 seconds slower than Taiwan's broadcast. When he confirmed that he won, he felt dizzy, from happy to crying.

He received more than 300 congratulatory text message and 700 message through his Weibo. His entertainment friends Jolin, Show Luo, Elva, also congratulated him.

Netizens described the winning of Wilber as the most surprised, the most dumbfounded, the most upsetting award of the night, and some even said “He felt he don’t stand a chance therefore missed the ceremony," Wilber explained that he already agreed to attend the event in China and could not cancel therefore he was not able to attend the ceremony, and it is not what most think.

Wilber immediately called his father to share the happiness the former felt, he also personally call the two most important women in his drama career, Zhang Rong Rong and Rainie Yang, who were also touched and cried. When Rainie received a phone call from Wilber, he was in his serious tone and Rainie was shocked because he is different from the usual Wilber, who loves to joke around. Wilber said Rainie gave him a lot of tips when they were shooting for “Miss No Good”.

Wilber is very grateful to the recognition of the judges, but also felt sorry for the other finalists. He also admitted that the pressure will be greater in future, and hope that people will give him a chance to prove that he deserved the award.
