  • Bibi on Rong Chen Blog

    A new interview with Bibi came out… yesterday!
    Or actually… two days ago considering they’re like 14hrs ahead of me~

    Bibi Zhou @ Rong Chen Blog

    Very cute interview, where they look back a bit on her singing…
    Bibi’s mom is also there! And she’s got dimples!!! LOL
    And Bibi doing celebrity impersonations~~~ xD – She is very good, if she weren’t singing, she’ll be doing that, I bet. Also pointing out the difference between herself singing, and doing impersonations.

    Sorry, no subs… but still fun to watch.

  • Another Sweet Bike~

    Call me crazy, but… do I seem to want to get a bike?
    Any of those would be out of the question here, but would
    love to get one for I dunno… San Francisco, or Vancouver~~~
    Taipei? Are there any good bike cities? Stockholm?
    Designed by Dominic Hargreaves, this bike really REALLY folds.

  • More Bibi PBs!

    :O

    ZOMG!
    a la Juri! DVD + Photobook!

    Mainland pop star Zhou Bichang (a.k.a. BiBi) turns movie director! Since signing with her new record company, the 2005 Super Girl first runner-up has directed three shorts that were first released on the Internet. They are now collected on DVD, allowing fans to witness her developing visual creativity and narrative flair. The first one, “Hide and Seek”, was highly popular in the 3rd Global Awards of Chinese New Media competition. BiBi plays an angel in the second chapter “Angel’s Corner”, which expresses her concern for various social issues, while the final piece “One Half Each Person” is more self-reflecting.The DVD comes with a 210-page full-color photobook, in which the bespectacled singer appears entirely without makeup. The book also includes photos she has taken around the world, as well as excerpts from her diaries written between April to December of 2008.

    Ooh la! Short films~~~

    Bibi Chow - Make Up Remover, Good to Be Myself

    Too bad it’s not subbed. But still, would be interested to see it.
    And it’s okay-priced. Would you consider? LOL


  • This is what’s happening~

    Everything I know or get from product photography, I “got” as a kid watching Discovery Kids when they showed a clip of how the photoshoot for a sandwich – complete with pinned-lettuce, strategically placed ketchup, soaking-wet cheese, raw-yet-well-done-cold burger and silicon-sprayed buns – and of course~ the ice-cream cup which was filled with silicon squares, and a some other squishy-plastic-like product… so the ice-cream wouldn’t melt, you know?

    I also did some “product shooting” in my school days, but really… wasn’t my thing.

    But look at this! It’s almost so SO real, except the fries… but still.
    O.O CRAZY!

    Is product shooting going extinct?


  • Carly Pope Thinks Vancouver is Awesome~

    me too, me too.
    though it’s always a love/hate relation with any city I stay in.

    I’m headed to bed early tonight. “big” day… er… today.
    let’s see how it goes~
    in the meantime~~~

    Here’s Carly Pope!

    Carly Pope by Shea Pollard

    What are your fondest memories growing up in the city?
    My parents used to always take us down to Granville Island on the weekends.  Kids Only market was my hotspot, no doubt.  We’d also take drives along the Seawall, and I would be nothing short of fascinated with the Girl In a Wetsuit Sculpture sitting out in the sea.  I tried (every time) to convince everyone she was actually the Little Mermaid…my version, anyway.

    I actually thought it was a mermaid too. LOL Granville Island pawns.

    What’s the most awesome restaurant in Vancouver?
    How do you choose?!  Vancouver’s seriously got the most awesome restos.  I’m practically a pundit for anything and everything Japanese. Hapa Izakaya, Kingyo, Miko, Bistro Sakana, Tojo’s (kind of preferred the days of old there though…something more unruffled about their former setup, but I get it), Shijo, Yuji’s, Yoshi’s, Daikichi (for takeout).  Asian fare, though, across the board, makes me a happy girl.

    Bolding, mine. ZOMG~ She’s so awesome. xD
    I’ve been to Hapa Izakaya once, it was pretty nice. Loads of people. Pretty nice food.
    But double ZOMG! Daikichi!!!
    I did most my Jap takeout from there since I lived right across the street. xD
    I did hang out with the Asian crowd. We went out to eat almost every weekend…

    Read the whole interview at Vancouver Is Awesome.


  • If You Don’t Love Maggie Cheung, You Will Now

    Woahhhh. She left my heart dokidoki~~~

    It’s a very VERY old interview Cheung did for the New York Times while promoting Clean at the Toronto International Film Festival (for which she won Best actress at Cannes).

    In case the whole thing disappears, I’m gonna paste the whole thing here~~~
    by the way, I do LURV the photo below the break, same photoshoot as the above…
    want a bigger version of the one below!!!

    Really, really do read this whole interview, even though it’s quite long. But it will make you adore Maggie Cheung~~~ it will make you love her, even though she doesn’t really want you to. LOL
