Claire Kuo and Huang Yaliprove their friendship by having the same haircut.

Composed by JJ Lin and penned by Claire Kuo, “Wants you to smile” is a sweet and cute song fitting for Huang Yali. The recently released MV features Claire Kuo and Huang Yali entertaining passerbys with their Friendship Puppet Theater. “Wants you to smile” is the first released MV for Huang Yali’s second album with Linfair Records – “Ex-girlfriend 前任女友.” The new album does a so much better job of showing off her clear and youthful voice than that of her previous one. Although all the tracks are really good, my favoite is “Same city 同城,” which was by the composer of Angela Zhang’s Invisible Wings.

A-list Chinese pop singers and musicians gathered at the National Olympic Center on Friday night for the annual Beijing Pop Music Awards gala, one of the most influential events that honors excellence in the industry. Pop veteran Wang Leehom dominated this year’s ceremony by notching four awards, while veteran rocker Wang Feng followed with three wins. Jane Zhang won Best Female Artist for the fourth time in a row, which brought her to tears rarely seen from the singer, especially as she thought of how she missed her mom and how as a busy aspiring artist, she had few opportunities to see her and talk to her. Returning veteran Han Hong beat out Chris Li Yuchun for most popular female artist. Song Zuying, the queen of folk, made a special surprise appearance.

Winners below the cut, translation thanks to Nepheliad@ Cfensi Forums.

JJ Lin’s accompaniment, Andy Lau’s dance teacher, Madonna’s designer, and…Chris Lee?

Why not? On March 21, 2009, Chris Lee dance battled with JJ Lin, wore costumes by Tuleh’s Bryan Bradley and smiled at the sea of yellow.

How does she and her team do it? This started out as a companion piece to EE Media’s weaknesses (the He Jie article), but it’s also a celebration of Li Yuchun’s own strengths, which in fact, are EE Media’s own forte.

Let’s dance

Popularity by the numbers

February 28, 2009 | Posted in Hong Kong,Mainland China,Movies,Music,Taiwan,Television, Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

What’s the most fair way to count popularity?
Baidu, mainland’s biggest search engine, thinks it’s by search results.
On the 20th, Baidu held its 3rd annual Hunan TV-Baidu Search Awards at the Water Cube.
CFensi brings you some of the best performances and speeches from the H3O.

Vicki Zhao Wei – Most popular actress; upon viewing a video summary of her ten years as an actress:

My greatest reward is that I found the meaning to my life. I think living in this world, everyone has a purpose in their lives, be it the the feeling of parents to their child or a doctor to his patients. In these ten years, I found the value in my life. Although my purpose is not as amazing as that of a scientist, but I think my life was a worthwhile one.

Chen Kun – most popular male actor

Actually, I’m late to mature. I always thought that I should act in roles that I want to, like in Mei Lan Fang, but unfortuantely I missed it. I realized that in life, there are other roles we must act as. Thank you to everyone who has supported me to this day. Whether you’re a fan of my acting, singing, or you’re just someone who silently supports me, I hope you’ll continue to support me. I’ll do my best for you guys, because I learned to enjoy my profession now.

Vicki Zhao and Chen Kun’s acceptance speech, review of the past ten years, and meeting with four-generations of Vicki fans:

The fearless Jane Zhang

Thanks to Bluelily for making a new banner for January!

So this is a little late, but I tried to wait to see if I could find any videos of certain people I liked but that didn’t happen. Chinese people need to support Chinese artists and put up HQ videos. Seriously. I have little time on my hands so what I have here are mostly vids that others bothered to put up.

China is really way too big . There were too many choices this year. CCTV, the main national channel had its own New Years shindig targeted toward the elderly demographic. In addition to this Jiangsu, Hunan, Zhejiang, and Dragon TV were four of the bigger stations vying for the younger viewers. There were also lots of smaller stations. I feel sorry for Americans, who only have parades to watch for their big holidays.

Chinese Celebrities When They Were Young

I said I would do a special fun post in exchange for someone making my banner when site hit 10,000. Well, here it is as promised, although nobody ever made me a banner. :( This is still incomplete…I don’t have a few people in here, and I wanted to put an after pic of everyone, but I got way too tired of that so I only put some for some people I didn’t think people would know (like all the mainland guys apparently), but eventually I will update this and make it the most comprehensive Chinese celeb baby picture list ever.

Love or hate her, you’ve got to admit Liu Yifei was one of the most adorable children ever.

More of cute adorable children behind the cut. I think it’s really rare for Chinese people to do plastic surgery (as of now) so this won’t be one of those “spot the differences” posts. This took a lot of time and effort to put together, so PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND POST ANYWHERE ELSE, w/o permission.
