Andrew Lim Blog » BoA Wants To Make It Big In The U.S.

BoA is big in Asia. Somehow she thinks she can make it big in the U.S. too. Her management company has announced that this Asian pop diva plans to make her debut in the U.S. and will release an English album here soon. Bitch obviously did not learn from Coco Lee.

Juls Lee Blog » Xanadu!!

Music entertainment Giant, SM Entertainment has finally got their musical "Xanadu", starring two Super Junior members underway! If any of you are old enough, you might remember Xanadu from the 80's, the original musical starring Olivia Newton John. Xanadu is a story about Kira, the muse of music who comes to the human world and falls in love with sexy artist-wannabe Sonny (WELL, if Sonny is a Suju, whooo wouldn't? :D), and muses him up all skanky like (well, not really, but I gots to keeps this dramatik), while giving him inspiration.

Ningin Blog » Well, kids play 'Operation'...

If you thought Nyotaimori ('body sushi' or the practice of serving sushi on naked women) was weird, wait till you see this feast for the gastronoics! Oh, there's a male version of Nyotaimori as well called Nantaimori before anyone starts talking about objectification of women. Although, I must admit morality still doesn't come into play much here either. (Well... I *suppose* if it's a ridiculously good looking Korean male model with a Rain-esque body, then watcha gonna do right?)

Andrew Lim Blog » I Want A Copy Of This!

This past weekend I blogged about FHM Magazine and incited a few lively comments among the Ningin readers about how Asian women tend to be more sexualized than Asian men. Well, apparently some sexy Pinoys want to prove them wrong. Cosmopolitan magazine in the Philippines will feature 69 shirtless hunks in this month's issue of "Cosmopolitan Bachelor Bash 2008". Gracing the cover of the centerfold is Darak Ramsay, who's half-Pinoy/half-British. The list of all the names of the 69 models can be found here.

Elena Stevenson Blog » Arnel Pineda: The Pinoy Who Wouldn't Stop Believing

Somebody give me a lighter. Journey, the ultimate stadium-rock band, has just taken the stage. Oh, the guitar solos...the nostalgia. But these days, there’s a different face mixed in with the aging Frisco white guys. It’s the boyishly cute mug of Arnel Pineda, recently emigrated from the Philippines, who’s now the lead singer of the band. His story’s something of a rock-and-roll fairy tale.

Jason Linetsky Blog » With Anime Festivals Come Cosplay...

As the New York Anime Festival is approaching, I feel like it's time to dust off the old black cloaks, repaint the 6 foot tall broad swords, and once again bribe your brothers or sisters to cosplay the opposite gender so you can go as an Anime couple. With that said, what better way to kick off this blog than to dive into that fun, yet sometimes very disturbing, world of cosplay!

Lan Nguyen Blog » America's Best Dance Crew: Battle for the VMAs

Randy Jackson really knows how to milk ABDC for all it’s worth. Apparently ABDC didn’t just end with the 2nd season but now they’ve brought the first and second season crew together to battle for a performance spot at the Video Music Awards in addition to ,000 donated to their favorite charity. Surprisingly enough, this episode was actually worth watching in contrast to the 2nd season finale.

Andrew Lim Blog » Giving Straight Guys Nose Bleeds For 10 Straight Years

FHM (For Him Magazine) is best known for its sexy, and at times sleazy, pictorials that send the blood pressure of straight guys and gayelles around the world rising. You know it's a substitute for guys who are too embarrassed to pick up a copy of Playboy or Hustler from the newstand. Originated from the U.K., the magazine has a subscription base of 10 million horny dudes in 31 countries. In September, FHM will have provided these horndogs with numerous whack off materials for 10 straight years.

Lan Nguyen Blog » Rain Can’t Wash Away His Troubles

The Korean pop star, Rain (Bi), is finally being called to court by Click Entertainment for the abrupt cancellation of his Hawaiian concert in June 2007. Surprisingly I feel sorry for the mullet monkey especially since he's being sued for 4 million dollars. With that type of money he could learn English!

Andrew Lim Blog » Scream Rain Fans, Scream…

Your manly looking idol is going to release an album in October and take part in a comeback program with major Korean broadcaster MBC. After attempting to pursue an acting career in Hollywood and realizing that he doesn't have much of an acting talent, Rain has decided to return to his comfort zone, which is recording sub-standard songs and shaking his bon bon for his screaming fans. According to the Asian Michael Jackson, this will be an album made for all his Asian fans.
