(Toggle) Taiwanese actress Joe Chen was arrested for drink-driving last month (Jan 4), when she ran a red light and was found to have an alcohol level of 0.67mg in her system.
Yesterday (Feb 7), it was announced that Joe has been sentenced to 60 hours of community service, which she is to complete over the next one and a half years. She might also be required to participate in future anti drink-driving campaigns to warn others of its dangers.
The sentence was decided in consideration that it was the actress’ first time committing a crime and that she was fully cooperative during her arrest.
After her arrest, the 38-year-old actress revealed that she was heading out to grab supper after having a drink at home, and was unaware that she had exceeded the alcohol limit.
Joe has since apologised for her actions on social media, and spent one month away from work to reflect on her mistakes.
On February 2, the actress’ company shared photos of her working behind the scenes. Upon seeing the photos, netizens were quick to point out that she had lost weight, claiming it was “heartbreaking” to see her this way.

‘The Return of the Pearl Princess’ Returns to Hunan TV, Again
Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.![]()
(CFI) A popular Chinese costume drama from the late ’90s is back on the small screen, igniting a wave of nostalgia and fresh commentary from millennial viewers who grew up with the show.
On Saturday, central China’s Hunan TV began rebroadcasting “Huanzhu Gege,” or “The Return of the Pearl Princess,” the hit comedy-drama series that made international stars of its young actresses, Zhao Wei, Ruby Lin, and Fan Bingbing.
Adapted from a novel by Taiwanese romance writer Chiung Yao, “Huanzhu Gege” tells the story of Xiaoyanzi, a vagrant orphan who accidentally becomes a princess after she is mistaken for Ziwei, the illegitimate daughter of the Qianlong Emperor. The show made its mainland debut on Hunan TV 20 years ago, and on Saturday, it again landed top ratings for a show airing on provincial television, Sina Entertainment reported.
Chen Jiali, a 31-year-old journalist based in Beijing, told Sixth Tone that she remembers how her family skipped the Spring Festival gala to watch the show during the Chinese New Year holiday in 1999. “The entire family watched it together,” Chen recalled. “Even my grandmother who was in her 70s watched the show with us.”
The television series became a thread of connection between young and old, Chen said, and even her elderly relatives could immediately recognize the stars when they appeared in other programs. “It’s not easy for them to remember the stars of our generation,” she said.
Reruns of “Huanzhu Gege” used to screen every summer and winter holiday until 2014, when Chiung Yao withdrew her screening rights from Hunan TV because of a plagiarism dispute over another show on the network, which in 2015 was ruled to have violated her copyright. On Saturday, Chiung explained that she had authorized the station again as part of her new Zen outlook. “Writing a book on life and death, I have nothing that I can’t let go of,” the 79-year-old author wrote on Facebook.
For millennial viewers like Chen, this year’s broadcast gives them an opportunity to re-evaluate an old favorite. “Back then I liked Ziwei, but now I feel like she’s a bit fake,” Chen said. “I find her too thoughtful and selfless, which isn’t realistic.”
These days, Chen said, she can’t help but think of what the actors are up to today. “For Xiaoyanzi [played by billionaire actress and investor Zhao Wei], I will think of her now being chubby and doing business,” Chen explained.
Shi Wenbo, 28, said he also views the show differently compared to when he watched it before. “As a child, I thought good people were only good, and bad people were just bad,” he said. “Now I feel that no one is a good person, and no one is a bad person.”
Though his favorite character was once Xiaoyanzi, Shi said now he looks forward to seeing Er Kang, Ziwei’s lover, who has become a source of memes because of his dramatic facial expressions. Chen agrees: “When Er Kang appears, it will be totally nuts.”
Despite his own affection for the show, Shi believes few people will watch the rebroadcast because of the poor image quality and outdated plot. But Ge Xiaohu, a postgraduate student in Shanghai, thinks it’s a savvy choice from the network.
“This rebroadcast produces a sense of nostalgia,” Ge told Sixth Tone, “while guaranteeing strong ratings during the Spring Festival period as families reunite, and as we recall the past and welcome the future.”

(China Daily) Madame Tussauds Beijing in the historical Qianmen area recently unveiled a wax figure of Chinese award-winning actor Huang Bo. The wax work features Huang sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and waving his left hand.
A professional team flew from the United Kingdom to Beijing and spent about six hours taking measurements for Huang's wax replica. It took about six months to make the wax statue in the UK.
Huang said he is satisfied with the wax replica.
He posed for photos with the wax figure. And for one picture, he put a piece of tissue into the wax figure's hand and then sat on the ground, pretending he was crying.

(Toggle) It was a serious case of déjà vu as Jacky Cheung kicked off his first of three encore concerts in Singapore last night (Feb 9). Having brought the same tour to Singapore last February (we were in attendance for his 56th concert in the tour), he brought all the grandness back to our sunny shores once again.
For a first-time Jacky Cheung concert-goer, this writer chose to go in without watching any videos of his previous concerts, lest the element of surprise be spoiled. However, after entering the concert venue, we realised that the majority of the 10,000-strong audience were here for a second (or even third and fourth) time for ‘A Classic Tour’ alone.
The reason for their repeated attendance was clear once the lights dimmed at 8pm sharp (here’s a PSA for those who are attending the show tonight and/or tomorrow - the organisers have confirmed that all concerts will start on the dot, so being late means you’ll miss out on his opening act).
Making his appearance in a dapper suit complete with top hat, his baritone vocals were as on-point as ever. He, along with his team of 24 dancers (plus six acrobatic dancers) and 32-man orchestra, worked the four-sided stage like the professionals they are, ensuring that every corner of the Singapore Indoor Stadium would be captivated by their performance.
As the saying goes, the devil is in the details - and Jacky showed to us once again why he’s not just the ‘God of Songs’ (a title bestowed to him in Hong Kong), but also an amazing showman who knows how to keep his audiences coming back for more.
For example, there were 11 huge LCD screens that showed different views of the stage - the four bigger ones suspended high enough for those in the balcony to check out the close-up shots of Jacky, along with the seven smaller ones arranged in a heptagon closer to the stage which alternated between showing close-up shots, to top-down views, gave the audiences in the arena and terrace level a different experience altogether.

Chinese 'Queen of the suit' to debut new collection in NYFW
Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.![]()
(Xinhua) Chinese fashion designer Tao Wang, who has gained an international reputation among powerful, professional and modern women, is to debut the latest collection of her namesake brand Taoray Wang on Saturday at the New York Fashion Week (NYFW).
According to a press release issued Friday by Taoray Wang, the collection, inspired by Catherine the Great, Empress of Russia in the late 18th century, blends the classic and the modern, East and West in traditional military olive green and striking Russian red.
The Military uniform, often the symbol of men's power, is now brought back as armored grace with the feminine epaulet softening the bold lines which portrays a sense of freedom as portrayed by Taoray Wang's signature slogan -- Powerful, Sexy and Edgy, it said.
Wang, a graduate of East China Normal University, has grown from an aspiring designer to one of Asia's most successful female entrepreneurs. She is well-known for putting a feminine touch on masculine work attire.
She said that her brand is created for elite woman leaders, including lawyers, bankers, politicians and entrepreneurs, who "are not afraid of appearing feminine and attractive."
Her most famous U.S. customer is Tiffany Trump, the youngest daughter of President Donald Trump. She wore a Taoray Wang outfit at her father's inauguration in January, 2017.
"I couldn't be happier if she comes," Wang told Xinhua via WeChat on Friday when asked if Tiffany would grace her Saturday's runway show.
Tiffany was there to support Wang in the last two consecutive seasons. The first time Tiffany met Wang was at her Spring/Summer 2017 show on Sept. 12, 2016 in New York.
"Tiffany got to know me from her friend's lookbook and she canceled her flight to Los Angeles to come to my show that day," Wang, who first debuted her brand at NYFW in the fall of 2014, recalled.
Held in February and September of each year, NYFW is a semi-annual series of events. It is one of the four major fashion weeks in the world, collectively known as the "Big Four," along with those in Paris, London and Milan.
