^ I don't believe in horoscopes either but it's sort of fun to know in a way. I'm backing Tang Feng up all the way on that one with the hygiene too. I wouldn't even share with...okay...maybe just my sis, but the rest...ekkkk.

And yes, the letter Jacky read was from his mother since I managed to read that part (and heard the "Mama" part at the end of the letter) since the letter was actually scrolling up the screen. (Although I didn't understand all but managed to understand some.)

I think even QQ was tearing up too but she was trying to put her head down and not cry while Jacky was still reading it since it showed her like twice when Jacky was still reading. (Even if she made a comment about it being weird afterward.)

*
that was so humble of jacky to admit his wrong again. he was not resistant to admitting his mistakes time and time again and that makes him likeable amongst tv hosts . Even his bro James indirectly admitted jacky's mistakes by relating a bit of the incident. We can see more and more tv shows are willing to give jacky a chance of a comeback.

and lolz even the host can't bear to say the exact reason why jacky was absent from the entertainment industry for a year. he said jacky went overseas to study or something like that, so sweet, everyone is giving jacky the backup he needs.

I think jacky wanted to guess that man behind the screen was shaowei but changed his mind on seeing the nice and clean pair of white adidas shoes lolz! james looks too clean and neat to be mistaken as shaowei lolz

thanks for the links Tammiest I heard some rumours Jacky was on something else but couldnt find it on YouTube
I just watched parts 1, 6 & 7 and ill watch the other parts later i thought it was wonderful ! I want to try to find out more about the letter from his mother he reads out in a such a sincere voice, it was in a book that the compere handed him
i noticed no one was calling him Jake which is a relief LOLZZ I think Jacky is lucky to have such a responsible and caring big brother I think James has a very sweet face He is quite a lot shorter than Jacky

When they put up old photos of the boys together in Canada--some of the scenes had snow in them-it reminded me of when James went on SuperIdol in 2007 while Jacky was in rehab It's on the VJ thredd On this show I think they had them up when Jacky sang Yuan Liang Wo It has become the theme song of his recovery

i agree that in their quiet low key way Tangerine are finaly getting behind Jacky and supporting his comeback

Jacky updated his blog. I was happy reading English and then he switched back again so I had to guess, but something (activity/ event or something like that) going on on March 21st that I can't sound out.

Here goes:
http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/jackychu66/arti...1&next=5078

oh no oh no. he mentioned about some 'agency problem'! what could be the problem so big that he is confused and lost? Let's hope there is nothing seriously wrong. he just bounced back not too long ago.

Yea, I know what you mean. I hope it's just a misunderstanding or whatever - that they could sort out like...soon. I'm sure most of the fans are waiting for his comeback and a possibility of an upcoming album.

JT from my old work translated the Chinese part of JKs blog entry Here it is:

"Last week I went to play a crazy computer game in order to release my anger. It was sort of a wrestling game. Both my opponent and I were bit badly [?]. But I felt much better after the game. At the end of February, I did some volunteer work. I was happy to be able to help some people out. I hope you guys can join me next time.
I have got a clothing show on 21st March. I might sing on the show too. So come along!"

yeah, i was worried when i read that hed had a disagreement with tangerine He realy cant afford to antaganise any more management agencies Is it sorted out now, i wonder?

sighzz ..

I really hope Jacky is sensible enough to really make good of his comeback. He can't afford to antagonise Tangerine. Where else does he wants to go? There may be many agencies out there but if words go around that Jacky is a difficult person to manage, you can bet other agencies would be aware and stay clear of him no matter how good he is or how popular he would likely to be in future. Why would bosses need to take sh*t from their own staff?. If Jacky is back to his old self, talking back to and challenging his boss like he is indispensable then I really don't know what to say. I hope this is NOT THE CASE!

i was pleased to see even tho JK got angry he didnt go off the rails but decided to play a computer game And I had NEVER heard of him doing any volunteer work before

He didnt say on his blogg what the disagreement with Tangerine was. he really does seem to be acting in a more mature fashion than in the bad old days

I don't think we should jump in and assume the worst every time Jacky posts something "negative". Maybe we should just wait and see what will come then jump at him. (LOL)

Jacky updated his blog again. The show has been delayed/ postponed. So it will be in April now.

What is the official English title for 百萬貧民?

i think the film he mentions on his blog is Slumdog Millionaire I can see why JK would like the film cos its full of ups and downs, luck, fate and romance!
I wonder who he went with to see the film? Is there any sign he is still sometimes seeing Doris Lai Wei Ru?
The show that was postponed to April is a fashion shoot, right? Hope he posts some photos on his blog I need some new wallpapers...LOLzz

^ Wallpapers? LOL! Resort to begging, he might notice it. (LOL)

Thank you for the info regarding the film he mentioned. Now that you mention it, it makes me wonder who he went with also. But talking about Jacky & Wei Ru, I need to go back and finish their fan fic. I'm stuck. I managed to finish one of his though, lol.

Edit:

I just grabbed my AQMFS DVD and went to watch some parts of Jacky again and finally found the place where he was speaking English and Canto right in one go. That was fun. :

Edit - 3/28/09 :

Was just browsing Ya Li's blog to see her latest work w/ Tang Feng . And then I saw this picture that I have to share.

Link: http://www.wretch.cc/blog/angelally722

Scroll down and you'll see the one she posted on Christmas with Tangerine celebrating together. Jacky's next to Joanne and Justine.

thanx for the link DTLCT
JK is wearing the same beanie that he wore at the keelung night market around Western New Year. Also he had on his blogg a pic of himself wearing that beanie and raindeer antlers I think it must be his favourite one LOLZZ
It goes very well with that hoody he has been wearing on variety shows--the black one with the black n white striped lining
Back to discussing attire...

Yes, we are back to discussing attire, lol. He and his beanie, lol. Talking about that, I'm so going to start on another fan fic, lol. This time, revolving around Tangerine artists only. Well, at least the main ones.

hey our boy has gone quiet again Any more news about the fashion shoot he mentioned on his blogg? Maybe he will sing too...

That thing he said hed tried for the first time in 7 years--on his blogg--It was the metro, right? The one in taipei is very good and fast in my opinion...

Okay - thanks Vanadia - found that Jacky updated his blog again. The fashion show is on the first of May. Don't ask me what the rest of the words are 'cause I'm still clueless half of the time. He get to perform aka sing? (Something like that, I think.)

Edit:

Jacky updated his blog again, putting up contact info.

oh woww finally some actions - 1 May . and having his own concert at the fashion show too, cool. i hope he is becoming wiser and getting along well with his agency .

Hi all^^

JK just write something in his blog

4/28 星期二 百萬大歌星

28 Aril bai wan da ge xing -- Is that mean he will be in that show??

Again? I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Sounds like hes going to be in it He was great on it last time I liked how the studio audience kinda ooh-ed and ahh-ed when he started to sing

we overseas fans will have to keep our eye on YouTube

JK seems to be getting a lot of work

Actually, this is good news, lol. So I can rip the segments and put it on my mp3 player. He better win this time! (JUST KIDDING)

I wonder who are the other guests along with him.

he updated his blogg again I asked my workmate EW to translate but would you believe i left the translation at work
But from what i remember i think he is going to sing two songs at the Rock Anthem thing and one of the songs is going to bring back fond memories, or somethin like that

I wonder if he means a song from his solo album?

I saw it too and nice going, V! LOL! Anyway, doesn't matter if it's one of the old songs or not. Still going to look forward to it.

hmmm woww things' looking up for Jacky; hope he continues to work hard and win back his agent's trust and support.

PS : I am sure he can write and give more info in English - 2 memorable songs? like he only has 2 after all these years? LOLZ and he says nothing about the Bai Wan show grrrrr .. more info please jacky, don't be lazy

i looked at the Rock Anthem website in the graphic that Jk posted on his blog and i think it must be about classic or immortal rock songs or whatever So when he hinted that the first song he'll sing will be one that brings back fond memories, he probably doesnt mean any of the songs from Gao Jie. He must mean some classic rock anthem Well he can sing R & B and harder edged stuff well Hope something turns up on YouTube
Sounds like Rock Anthem will be on MTV, right?

Forgot to reply earlier but that's cool.

Oh yeah, was surfing around and found these: http://www.udn.com/2009/4/16/NEWS/ENTERTAI...1/4850700.shtml
http://udn.com/NEWS/ENTERTAINMENT/ENT7/4856150.shtml

(Hmmmm.....the reporters are after him again... )

So was JK just showing Betty Huang Yi around Taipei? She is fronm Shanghai isnt she? He looked cool with the baseball cap and sunglasses. Perhaps the weather is becoming too warm for one of his famous beanies. Maybe the paparazzi are taking more notice of him now that hes getting quite a lot of work.

Has anything turned up on YouTube from any of the shows like Bai Wan Da Ge Xing he is meant to have recorded?

^ I'm checking the site this weekend also since BWDGX is like once a week. Yes, it seems like he's getting back into the spotlight again so...something to talk about.

I think I already mentioned not really being a fan of the beannie so...that's good that he's wearing a baseball cap, lol.

thanks DTLCT for news links.

good to know jacky is in the news - good signs phew - for once I like paparazzi . he looks dashing as. but I don't know who that Betty lady is; not that I know many female celebrities .. hmm let me count .. i could make do with 5 fingers

jia you jacky!

PS : After spending almost a year rooting for his comeback which he finally did and I was like literally exhausted; I have no more energy left and realised I could no longer take the slightest hint of anything negative about him, like the last time he got angry with his agent, regardless who was in the wrong.

Mystery solved, I found the BWDGX show he's supposed to be on already. It's the May 9th one. There's probably a version on YT but I'm dl-ing it to my comp (lol). Will get back to you guys later on it. Why is he wearing a hat? I want to see the hair! (Okay, now I sound like I'm obsessed with his hair. Not good, lol.)

And don't worry about the supposed "news" 'cause I don't think Betty Huang would want to get into another mess, lol.

I hate to admit this but i actually really like his beanies. I like the one he was wearing at the Tangerine Christmas thing where they all have presents, then hes wearing the same one around Western New Year with antlers on it. But the baseball cap is good too. Maybe he was trying to avoid the media coz he had those huge sunglasses on and the cap pulled well down. Here I am discussing attire again. LOL

If anyone finds the YouTube link to his last appearance on BWDGX would you pls post it. I often have trouble finding things on YouTube. Maybe i give up to soon! Does anyone know how far he got?

Okay, watched Jacky's part already on BWDGX. He died so early it's not even funny. (I don't get the part where they count 1-2-3 while you're singing. Is that part you're supposed to sing in a certain tone or style or whatever? Something new so I don't get it.) I sort of slide the video the later part just to see what's up and Jacky gets to sing with one of the contestants since that person choose him for a duet. Other than that, he sang one of Jacky Cheung's song again! Yay! Love that song! Anyway, about the hat thing, it was props for the Jacky Cheung song. Oh yeah, he's back in the style of 'Hi-Fly' days. It makes me want to go finish that series but then I don't want to see him get slapped again. I'll probably do caps later.

Edit:

Here goes the link: http://www.megavideo.com/?v=SBTWGFAX

If it doesn't work, it's because it's still converting it. But it should work several hours later.

If you only want to watch Jacky's parts:
- 2nd Round starts around 16:30 and ends at around 35:29
- Jacky, JR, NONO, and this one other guy did the showdown and sing the song (coincidentally another Jacky Cheung song) with her at around 1:20:00 (1 hr 20 mins)

I just slide the bar back to the Jacky Cheung song that Jacky sang and realized that he was singing in Cantonese! That was cool! (Here's Jacky Cheung's version if you want to check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_VShAURv74)

Like I said, caps will come later.

i just found the parts of his appearance on YouTube. Here's Part 4.

Bai Wan Da Ge Xing 2009-05-09


I think he got to level Four this time and am I right in thinking he made a mistake or some mistakes before the lyrics even ran out?

I thought the Jacky Cheung song he sang in Canto was really impressive. he really understands those songs with an R & B flavor--and he danced well too. I liked his shirt but I have always worried about those jeans with huge tears in then tho i guess they are fashionable at the moment.

Has anything turned up on YouTube from Rock Anthem? Was that a live show or did he only record it on Friday?

Resurrection time, lol!

Here goes:


Got it!


Getting hit by Harlem!


Singing with the hat. (That's the only one I have with the hat since he's dancing the rest of the time so it's hard to snap a decent one. )

If you want more caps:
http://s1.zetaboards.com/Hong_Ju_Zi_Fans/topic/1624760/
(NOT 'cause I want to show off, but 'cause I'm lazy to post it on here again.

damn! after waiting like forever to see him again he got bumped off so fast and that was it - I think he knew the lyrics but forgot how the tune goes coz he started to look 'unsure' after singing just a few words and the song just died and I didn't even realised it until the host appeared and he looked ??? LOLZ.

well, i know what you mean but when I went on YouTube his performance was at least across two segments--and he comes back later to sing a duet, right? And he made it to level 5 and last time he only went to level 6 or 7 so it wasn't that much worse.

And I really think he sang that Jacky Cheung song sensationally well He realy has a feel for R & B

oh lolz. thanks vanadia. I watched the 'youtube' you posted and seeing jacky 'died' so quickly i just shut off the program without continuing to see the rest .

yeah, he was in Part 3 and he sings the Jacky Cheung song with the hat in Part 4 (the link I posted) and then according to DTLCT i think someone invites him up to sing a duet later on but i havent found that part yet
Hes certainly singing very well at the moment

Vanadia, I thought you already watch that part, lol. It was as awesome.

Hidden Text:

Harlem was yelling for Jacky but NONO jumped out so JR and this other guy also came out. That was how they end up doing the showdown, which the lady chooses Jacky in the end anyway, lol. That was still funny though. Then Jacky got carried away and sang another sentence into the song that almost cost him some more beating from Harlem! LOL!

EDIT:

Put it in spoiler so if those who haven't watched wouldn't kill me for it.

Ok, Ive found that parts on YouTube. So without giving away the details of what happens in case someone hasnt seen it yet, jacky sings a duet--very, very well--in Part 9. Heres the link:

BWDGX 2009-05-09

And heres the YouTube link of one of the songs from the Rock Anthem concert on May 15. Guess what? He did sing Gao Jie.Jacky Rock Anthem Gao Jie

Here's the link to some pix of Jacky and James (his brother) at the after party of the Rock Anthem concert. It's the Taiwan MTV site. Rock Anthem party May 09

I thought this thread would be more active by now, lol. Like discussing his latest.

Anyway, here's the link to his next event: http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/jackychu66/arti...1&next=5324

This might be good public exposure for him? *shrugs*

jk updated his blog again--twice. I could see that he sang Gao Jie again at the HK final of the Asiin Street Dance Competition. There's a low quality clip of part of it on YouTube:
Jacky Gao Jie HK Street Dance Final 2009/06/14

At last he is certainly getting a lot of work!

I'm sick of Gao Jie. (No, wait. I already said that like many times already, right?) We know that's like his 'signature' song, but could he sing another one? (LOL)

Getting work is good...(I guess)

yeah good that he is getting work but i am sure tangerine can do better than that for him - things are moving a little slow. Can't he be in some dramas or something i wonder?

anyway, as usual, jacky looks very good and stylish in those pics he took at the Dance event .

PS : I wish he would sing Zhen Ai one day - it's his and mingdao's song and mingdao has been singing this song on his own in various tv programs poor guy .

Regarding dramas, maybe they're working on it? Or maybe they are not because I think Jacky said that he prefers singing to acting so they're just working to get him singing gigs right now. (Oh yeah, or maybe the screen is not ready for him yet. It'll be like people are pointing, "Oh look, there's the guy that used to...." and then there you go. Okay, I'm being paranoid now. But that's usually what happens when you got caught and the others don't so you get all the stares. )

I totely agree DTLCT I like Gao Jie It is a powerful ballad with sentimental lyrics and Jacky is singing it beautifully at the moment--better than in the past, I think. His voice is very strong and focussed. But I have several versions of it already. I've heard it a million times. I also think that he needs to do something with a faster tempo at those big arena concerts.

But his singing was well received. I think he is trying to get back in touch with his solo career and Gao Jie is indeed his signature song. And he's getting a lot of singing work.
I must try to get the rest of his latest blogg post translated. I only could read part of it--enough to look Gao Jie up on YouTube.

I was skimming last time and I think it was about how received it was and glad that people came to support him, etc? (Don't take my word for it since my Chinese is broken, lol.)

Oh yeah, I forgot to say it last time. But I thought he would sing something like 'Hong Jiu' to make it more lively at the arena? *shrugs* Since it's upbeat and all.

i asked a friend not one of my usual translators and he thinks JKs latest blog entry is about asking about a change to his blog--something about nameless or anonymous--would his local friends be able to access it easier or not? He then asks for opinions.

sorry, the first part about nameless or anonymous is not very clear. Help, anyone?

^^ I'll translate it Very short, hehe.

Jacky says,
"If I switch over to a Wretch (that's what 無名小站 is, BTW) blog, will it then be easier for (our) friends in the Mainland to access? Are there any other suggestions?"

I guess tw.yahoo sites are sometimes blocked in Mainland China. Makes sense. But I'm not sure that Wretch will work, either? Just because it's also based in Taiwan, as far as I know. He should probably get a Sina blog, then maintain both that one and the current one... updating both with the same messages. A lot of artists do that. And Ehlo has a Sina blog, I think? so I'm sure he can ask him for help
