New pics of Angela's latest MV for the song Jay Chou wrote for her
- 'Qing Ai De, Na Bu Shi Ai' ['Darling, that isn't love]

The story in the MV is about a younger man in love with an older woman. frankly, I think Angela looks younger than this guy they picked for the MV
It turns out at the end of the MV that the older girl classmate was not really in love with him afterall, hence the title. I wish they had picked a better looking guy for this MV
The article comes with a vid - you can hear her new song playing in the background while they film the MV. from what I can hear, it's gonna be a hit!

Thanks for the latest 2 pics of album art from angnation.

Thanks for the news Angelun! This new song sounds sooo good! Chart-topper for sure! Anyway, is that Angela's album I see on the left? When she was being interviewed there was a man there raising something and then he turned it backwards for us to see the freebies. I wonder if it is....

Someone already posted the whole video of angela guesting in 100% ent. Here it is!

The rest of the video can be found under the same user.

eternity_ren Hi, Thanks for the link.
Wanted to catch it on channel U but I can't make it at 5 pm
Will watch it after tomorrow and I hope we can discuss it!
Between, I Love the earlier vid on Xiao Zhu and his cute face. Angela laughed so much at him

Here are some pics of Angela at the party of some French brand, I think. As usual, I can't read the name! It's 法国包款派对

[judyl1031]

thanks eternity!!! i love show and angela arguing over the smallest thing while xiao gua was like stop arguing!!! lol...i think they should do a comedy/drama together...it would be so funny! he's always provoking her.

Ann: the word you can't translate is probably the Chinese pronunciation of France Promax (the wall behind Angela) so not too impt to know

[cascada]

hi. a newcomer in this thread.
i quite like angela. she is really pretty both in long and short hair.
moreover, her singing skills are great and her acting skills are cutez too like in RP.
i am looking forward to her new album!!

[angelun]

thanks eternity!!! i love show and angela arguing over the smallest thing while xiao gua was like stop arguing!!! lol...i think they should do a comedy/drama together...it would be so funny! he's always provoking her.

Ann: the word you can't translate is probably the Chinese pronunciation of France Promax (the wall behind Angela) so not too impt to know

Hahah.. yeah it did cross my mind that the two chinese words were for Promax!
is this a famous brand? the article mentioned that many of the rich and famous were there!!

Hi Judy and eternity_ren
About the show:
I thought Show Luo was very funny but he did like to provoke Angela and they bickered about everything. I was so frightened they would really quarrel. Angela was definitely no pushover and poor thing, her voice did sound like she had a cough! I also thought Angela looked like she might consider a duet with Show. and yeah Judy, I think Angela would act well with Show - their bickering was kinda cute and Angela laughs a lot...she looks happy!!
Show's attempt at speaking english was hilarious - he really had a piggy voice but I'm sure he's just pretending!! I'm sure his english is pretty good. Is Show a friend of Angela's? I've seen him with other guests and he's not that 'provocative'!

[francesca]

Angela will be in at least 7 magazine covers this December namely : Bazaar, Beauty English, Citta Bella, TVBS, PC Home, Fans & Nana

here's the bazaar cover



someone @ angnation scanned & uploaded 6 of the magazine spread (except bazaar)..im gonna upload in AF gallery (maybe tomorrow, im sleepy) but here is the whole file in RAR (8mb)

Referer http://www.badongo.com/cfile/5472053
enjoy!

[angelun]

Ooooh cool pic!! Thanks francesca!
She looks really cute and her face looks fuller somehow
Her hair looks even shorter .. is it the curls or did she cut it again?
Hopefully she's gaining weight again!

Can I ask if I can get these magazines in Singapore?
Also if all these magazines are in English or Chinese?
Thanks, I would like to buy them if I can! I'm on holiday finally, with lots of time to read!

[x0chanelx0]

I absolutely adoreeee the Bazaar mag. cover,she looks stunning.Not so skinny and very mature like a young grown woman.WChun'd fall in love all over again.Haha.

[francesca]

all the mags in chinese. i dont know though if you can get them in singapore

here's the citta bella spread

[tammiest]

^^ I think you can probably find "Fans" in Singapore? Maybe. It's an idol magazine. So awesome! My dad's in Taiwan right now, so I can get a copy, too! Hehehe.

About the show:
I thought Show Luo was very funny but he did like to provoke Angela and they bickered about everything. I was so frightened they would really quarrel.

I also thought Angela looked like she might consider a duet with Show. and yeah Judy, I think Angela would act well with Show - their bickering was kinda cute and Angela laughs a lot...she looks happy!!

Oh, hehe... I was going to upload some of my favorite "lives" from that episode, but... if the whole thing is already available on YouTube...
I'm totally crazy about her performance of "Wo Lian Ai Le [I'm In Love]," the first one she did. It's because... watch carefully... she sings three full lines before taking a breath! And you can't even hear her taking a breath... although you can see it. Wowww, Angela can really sing superbly... especially live!
Honestly, I can only tell that she has a cold near the end of the episode (what I mean is, it's not like her singing was bad at all)... because she switched to falsetto... instead of belting out the high notes like usual.
And yeah, my mom was watching PART of the episode with me, and she was like, "Oh, Angela's laugh is really cute. It's so natural."

As for Show, I thought he was pretty funny... the way he'd announce her next songs... sooo poorly. Hahaha. But yeah, Angela seemed really annoyed (and who can blame her?) when he kept interrupting her story. I didn't think they knew each other, though?
(BTW, Show's English is actually notoriously bad. They always make fun of him for it.)

[YenkYenk]

She is beautiful with her new short hair !!

Just like a doll

I love it ..

[angelun]

x0chanelx0

Not so skinny and very mature like a young grown woman.

yeah, I agree! her recent pics are showing a more womanly side to her which is really lovely Just look at the Citta Bella pics! Very stunning and sexy in a sophisticated way! Her new look is just GREAT!

francesca
Thanks for the Huge scans of the Citta Bella article! I can actually read the words quite comfortably!
I'm going magazine hunting and if I can't buy the mags I'll have to rely on your scans! I'll try and translate the more interesting bits of what I can read. I'm really excited about all the news

Tammy

As for Show, I thought he was pretty funny... the way he'd announce her next songs... sooo poorly. Hahaha. But yeah, Angela seemed really annoyed (and who can blame her?) when he kept interrupting her story. I didn't think they knew each other, though?
(BTW, Show's English is actually notoriously bad. They always make fun of him for it.)

So that was actually how he speaks English?! He's cute though!
yeah he was really so corny ... the way he'd try to use the song titles in the conversation!
I agree with your mum, Angela's laugh was most attractive! It helped brighten the whole show!
I hope Angela makes other guest appearances on other shows - I'd like to see different facets of her personality!

[judyl1031]

Awww omg, THANK YOU FRANCESCA!!! Citta Bella spread...*falls over* I swear if I'm a guy...I would so fall for her. That girl is just gorgeous beyond words. That's who I wanna bring home to mom. lol...and yeah if you youtube old 100% Entertainment shows, Angela was the guest co-host w/ Show for a bit, I think during her Pandora days cuz I remember her chameleon necklace. They had good banter and would always bicker...to the point, like okay we need to cont. w/ the show! So I think those two are good friends.

yeah, sexy Ang w/ her new album and look...looking so mature and hot lately!

hey eternity_ren, the song words came out in funky symbols. so i'll translate the titles to Eng (best to my ability)

Songs from Ang 5.0

1. I Fell In Love
2. Don't Want to Understand
3. My Dear, That's Not Love (or My Love, That's Not Love)
4. Bedtime Story (or Bedside Story)
5. Top Honey (or Number One Sweetie) *really unsure*
6. Heavy Comes *okay, this I really dont' know*

hey everyone, I'm new to angela's thread : )

I noticed her because of Romantic Princess. have only watched the first episode yet, because I need to wait for subs, but it's really good ^^

I like her new hairstlye as well, though I like it better when she has side-bangs, but the normal bangs suit her as well ^^

and I read here in this thread that there's going to be a new album. does anyone know the exact release date? sorry if it has been mentioned before, I didn't have time to read the whole thread : P

and I see ChocoxJiro, so that's where you are, haha xD

Hi, there should be second editions of her album containing the MVs but I don't think BTS scenes will be included. The first edition of her allbum sold in Yesasia.com does not have the MVs.
Yes, her eyes are lovely!! She looks like the Manga figures with their huge eyes!

Rainie_Karen

and I read here in this thread that there's going to be a new album. does anyone know the exact release date?

Hi, welcome! Her fifth album will be launched on the 14 december this year. There are english subbed episodes of RP up to EP7 in Youtube!

Yup, the first edition of her CD comes with a set of 6 calendar magnets (?)... I think. I think they're supposed to be of her cartoon self? Not sure.
And the CD's coming out on the 14th, but YesAsia releases a week late I think it's because they have to get the CD's from their suppliers first, so they ask for an extra week.
I'm hoping waiting for the gai ban version! Want her MV's

Hi everyone,
finally finished translating the article so I've transfered the pic over to this post.

Title: 张韶涵展现优雅古典美 自爆小时被嘲唱歌难听(图)
Angela shows herself as an elegant classic beauty, reveals that she sang badly as a child
2007年12月13日 10:36 来源：中国新闻网

When she was young, Angela was often laughed at for singing badly. No one would have thought that she could become an award winning singer today. Indeed the ugly duckling has become a beautiful swan!

　Angela’s image at a photo shoot for a Taiwanese fashion magazine is elegant, showing off her classic beauty. Towards fashion products, Angela appreciates beautiful clothes that can enhance a woman’s beauty. She hopes one day to publish her own coffee table picture book; containing images of her in different styles and emotions eg cute, sad, rock and roll …etc Her favourite designer is John Galliano.

Talking about her work as a singer and actor, Angela reveals that in the past when she was a child, she was often laughed at and criticized for singing badly. She said: “My family often criticized me for singing badly and wanted me to stop.” She was often upset about this and felt depressed. Today, she has not only become a professional singer with her own albums and has had her own public concert; she has also won numerous prizes for her singing. This is something she could not have anticipated in the past.

Angela says she is not afraid of the pressures that come with fame but what she cannot tolerate is unprofessionalism. She says, “when facing a task, even if 10 people have failed in the past, I would want to be the 11th person that successfully completes it.”

The Chinese version is in the spoiler:

Hidden Text:

张韶涵小时候唱歌不好听，经常被嘲笑，想不到今天竟成为歌手，还夺得音乐方面的奖项，原来丑小鸭真的可变成天鹅！

据香港太阳报报道，张韶涵为台湾时尚杂志拍照，造型优雅，在镜头下充分展现出她的古典美。对于时尚品牌，张韶涵表示欣赏美丽的衣服，认为这可表现女性的美态，她希望有朝一日可以推出一本《关于张韶涵》的时尚杂志，里面放满她可爱、复古和摇滚等不同造型。由此可知为何她最爱的设计师是John Galliano了。
谈到目前歌手和艺人的工作，张韶涵透露自己以往歌喉甚差，小时候表演时经常被人嘲笑和嫌弃，她说：“家人一直嫌弃我唱得难听，要我别再唱了。”经常为此感到不开心，令她很沮丧。想不到今天能成为一个真正的歌手，不但推出个人唱片和开个人演唱会，还在颁奖礼中获得奖项，这些都是她意想不到的事情。

张韶涵称，不会担心成名后带来的压力，反而不能忍受工作上有人不专业，她说：“面对一件事，如果过去有十个人都做不好，我会更想成为那第十一个把任务完成的人。”

Thanks Judy and Cherrytea !! for translating the interview from NANA
The both of you did a Great job!!
Some thoughts on the interview:
That car she likes is exactly the one that Zhishu's mom drives in ISWAK - very 60s and hippie-ish!
It's the same van in 'Scooby Doo' cartoons too.
heheh! i share some of her likes and dislikes:
I hate and fear cockcroaches the most too! I usually jump on the nearest table or chair when I see one! Tony Leung is one of my fave actors - I've watched him as a child! I love cards too, they're my favourite presents!
Hmmm primary 5 is a bit young to have first love - must be a crush. Maybe the crush on her teacher she talked about in one of her previous interviews.
I hope she puts on weight too - sounds like she's trying hard!

thanks for the translation too! ^^
I didn't noe that she could not sing well when she was a kid! But look at her awesome voice now! she must have worked very hard! I heard that her mum owns a Karaoke Lounge so Angela always goes there to practise, and that's why she improved tremendously throughout the years...is that true?
really? the car is what Zhishu's mum drove? COOL!

[celsiusgirls]

i love angela's new style!

Angela looks so young and fresh on this photo and I prefer this look than the one she has now. She seems to have aged a lot. Prolly because she lost weight? Her eyes looked bigger and it's like her cheeks caved in, they look so hollow. Also, I noticed that her head looked so big in RP (maybe because she had big long hair back then). And with her new hairstyle, her face is not seen anymore. Maybe she should try to brush it up once in a while so we get to see her face more.

Hi, yeah, I recognised the car from the picture ... I am an ISWAK fan too! Angela should act with Joe Cheng one day - he will help make her relax and laugh!! But he's super tall ... taller than Chun.
Yup, it was a surprise to me as well that her voice wasn't so good as a child! She is one really very determined person to have improved so much!
I don't know anything about Angela's mom but the others should be able to answer your question.

Between, someone in Youtube has uploaded the full DVD of Angela live in Taipei. It's in 20 something parts. The user is Bickfreak and the link for the 21st part is
Angela live in Taipei
You can find the other parts by following this user.

[Rainie_Karen]

angelun thanks for telling me, so her album will be launched today : D
I know there are already more subs for RP on youtube, but I prefer to watch it on my laptop, better quality ^^

cherrytea thanks for translating the interview : )
wasn't there a time when she said she also wants to go to Vienna? that would have been cool, because I'm from Vienna ^^
may have been old news though

[francesca]

I've download the album!
I wish there were more songs like Jue Bu and Kong Zhi bu Liao

But I like the tracks 05. 頭號甜心 and Wo Lian Ai Le!
Too bad Jue Bu and Kong Zhi Bu Liao aren't on the album, anyone knows if they're sold as singles or something? (I haven't seen any singles from them )
Just Kong Zhi Bu Liao is on the Live @ Taipei DVD tour as a MV

Could anyone translate the tracks to pinyin? That would be great!

01. 我戀愛了 - Wo Lian Ai Le
02. 不想懂得
03. 親愛的，那不是愛情
04. 床邊故事
05. 頭號甜心
06. 重來
07. 能不能勇敢說愛 - Neng Bu Neng Yong Gan Shuo Ai
08. 失憶
09. 樂園- Le Yuan
10. 誰愛誰
11. 不想懂得 (鋼琴弦樂演奏版)
12. 樂園 (華爾滋弦樂演奏版)

Thanks a lot!
