I bet this episode is going to be exciting, there’s only so little slots left for each of the judges, it’s gonna be tense. They will probably fill all the slots today! This episode, we start off with a s soothing song performance by the first contestant right at the start, without any gimmicks or whatsoever. The first 5 contestants’ performance are cut and compressed into 5 minutes.

It seems like it’s becoming a trend in the Chinese entertainment industry to remake some popular Hollywood films. I actually don’t mind watching such remakes especially when gorgeous ladies like Angelababy and Ni Ni are in it. These two have been busy promoting the Chinese remake of “Bride Wars” ever since the year started. These pretty women are now on the cover of Cosmopolitan China for its September issue shot by the famous celebrity photographer Chen Man.

The war is ON for these two!

Another Weibo round-up because why not? 😀 I tried to include the celebrities that I didn’t include during my last round-up while I couldn’t help but repeat some just because they’re so active in this wonderful microblogging site 😉

Everyone’s favorite Chinese supermodel is very happy with her bike! I’ve always thought that Liu Wen was my soulmate because we both don’t have enough life skills to survive (read: can’t swim, can’t bike, etc) but looks like my soulmate has already left me…. haha! This is all thanks to “We Are In Love” or China’s version of “We Got Married” which just recently concluded.

Episode 3 of the Voice of China fresh out of the oven! Another episode that I ‘live-recapped’, commenting as I watched for the first time. This time round, I cut down on descriptions (because english subs will be available here in one week or so) and added in more of my own opinions. Continue reading →

Finally here to do up the second half of Episode 2 of The Voice of China! Haven’t got time to catch up and I wouldn’t be here if not for the fact that my episode 3 recap is already up and ready to be posted after I’m done with episode 2’s recap. This part will be less detailed and mostly consist of highlights. It’s also the first time I’m watching with english subtitles. Without further ado, let’s get started!

As a C-entertainment fan who has a very limited knowledge of Chinese, I still go to Weibo everyday just because of the beautiful updates/photos posted by beautiful people here.
