Sneak Peak into Square Enix Handheld Games

01:02PM by lan

IGN was ninja enough to go undercover (not really) and record footage of the upcoming handheld Square Enix games. Go DS and PSP! If you didn’t know, I’m a big Square Enix fan so I’m psyched to hear they’re pumping out a couple handheld games for the rest of the year. No more boring train rides!

Casting Process for Hana Yori Dango

12:00PM by lan

Earlier this month I reported about the famous Jdrama Hana Yori Dango was now coming to Korea. Well they’re still in the middle of casting which was supposed to end before August but they’ve extended it for another month. Just hurry up and grab a cute guy like Hero from DBSK and everything will be okay!

Preggers?

10:08PM by andrewlim

Oh no!!! For months I have been looking forward to the ever so talented and classy Asian diva Faye Wong to come out of her retirement and release some kickass album but now it will never happen since my girl is rumored to have been sperminated knocked up once again. Faye already has two girls. She and her husband Li Yapeng want them to have a little baby brother so they are giving it another shot.

You Go Girl!

03:00PM by andrewlim

The 2008 Mr. Hong Kong Pageant was held in Hong Kong this past Saturday. The title went to 23-year old Michael Tsu who is actually from the States (seriously, Hong Kong has run out of good looking guys). The event was hosted by veteran host Do Do Cheng, singer Miriam Yeung and actress Anna Yau. 12 men strutted their stuff infront of a sea of screaming cougars. These ladies must have mistaken this as The Chippendales show.  They just couldn’t hide their excitement (08-03-08_Mr_Hong_Kong_3.JPG, 08-03-08_Mr_Hong_Kong_4.JPG). One even went as far as checking out the winner’s package (08-03-08_Mr_Hong_Kong_5.JPG). I don’t blame her. I would too if I was this close to him. Too bad they didn’t allow men to be in the audience. Otherwise I, along with the entire gay population of Hong Kong, would be there.  TVB actress Christine Ng was among the screaming fans in the audience and joked that she brought along her own oxygen supply this year in case of emergency.

The Ultimate Asian Concert

02:37PM by lan

Finally someone caught on to the idea of bringing Japanese, Korean and Chinese artists together in one concert. Took them long enough! The concert will be featuring some of the most popular singers from the three nations like Chinese pop duo Yu Quan and trio F.I.R, Japanese Jazz group Ego-Wrappin and Korean songwriter Yi Sung Yol. Maybe Asian American artists will join the band wagon and it’ll really be the ultimate Asian concert.

Weekly Music Round Up August 1

10:00AM by lan

It’s August already! Can you believe it? School will be starting soon for all you suckers out there. Hahaha Excited? I can only imagine.

Well I know lately I’ve been slacking on the round up but here’s a fresh batch of mostly new songs. I don’t most of the artists either so it was fun to here something new and different.

Next week I’m going to do another theme round up but this time it’s going to be game music as in music featured in games. I’ve been playing Final Fantasy IV for DS since it only came out a few weeks ago so I’m in the gaming mood. I found a lot of cool songs that I wanted to share but there’s so many good ones I’m still debating. Ha!

America’s Best Dance Crew Episode 7

11:54PM by lan

This week on ABDC, the crews had to emulate a Missy Elliot video while putting in their own flavor. It started out with an opening act of all the crews to a performance by Missy Elliot. It wasn’t that great and I barely remember it all together except for the random magic tricks. If anything, it was better than the Janet Jackson opening. Missy Elliot was also a guest judge tonight.

You Have Been Served!

04:18PM by andrewlim

Back in May, some over-the-hill and shriveled up actress opened her big mouth and told the press that the earthquake in China was karma for China’s treatment of Tibet. A lot of people were offended by her comment. Some vowed to boycott her movies. Others burned their “Basic Instinct” posters and dvds. Me? I dropped her a fan letter.
