The sudden cheering really shows a lot in the short, few seconds. I watched it over after you mentioned that, and did you see Gillian's sudden expression change as well? She was blushing and slightly giggling when the crowd started cheering, and as she looked over at Charlene, she quickly hid her smile. Wonder if it's because of the expression Charlene returned to her? whistle.gif I've also noticed that as the hosts asked about how the contestants sang or what they should be cautious about, Gillian was the one who actually gave tips on singing; she told the first group to be cautious about hitting the right notes and told the second group to look into their respiration. Charlene, who just spoke first, commented that the first group had keys that were similar and the second group used good emotions, but when Gillian expressed her thoughts, she went along to agreeing. rolleyes.gif

Yeah, that's why I think Stephy sounds better when she's in a duet with someone rather than solo. Alex's voice sounds like it could suit many female artistes since it's so standard. Standard voices can easily blend in with different voices, ranging from high to low. It's like how Alex is able to blend with Stephy's high voice down to Theresa's low voice. An Alex+Gillian duet would be great; I wonder how Alex blends with a versatile voice like Gillian's?

No kidding; when I read her response, that's what I was thinking. Is she claiming that she and her friends are just as beautiful as Gillian? I don't understand; this person just has a tendency of butting in on everything that concerns Gillian. This person is always there whenever there's a topic posted with Gillian's name in the title. It's as if she's afraid that people are going to forget Charlene or what not, so she just has to be there to plant negative thoughts in. It's so amusing to see Gillian tugging on these haters' noses through every little small pieces of information that leaks out about her. whistle.gif
Yeah, Gillian's smile disappeared and her bubbly eyes quickly switched to being serious. Gillian is too cute when she blushes and giggles. This crowd was quite supportive of Gillian and may have embarrassed Sa a bit because no one really cheered for her except for one of the hosts I believe who made that Wohoo sound since it was so distinctive. Even though this crowd clearly cheered for only Gillian before and after the live performance, this is still far from what Sa fans have down to Gillian. n_thumbdown.gif Hm, at least Gillian was being honest and provided some helpful tips because these girls were quite horrible to be frank but I guess Sa chose to be lenient on them but only after Gillian broke the bubble of reality, she chose to go along. whistle.gif I'm glad Gillian doesn't try to impress anyone by covering up mistakes here and there, she's honest and that's what people need. Gillian's tips weren't rude either, they were simply well informed and shows how much Gillian actually understands music, obviously, Gillian isn't slow at all with her responses, quite original may I add. whistle.gif

Yeah, I would love to hear Alex-Gillian and of course, another round of Alan-Gillian but a full version next time.

Yeap, these Sa fans constantly have to steal the spotlight for their idol but it's okay, if they're that desperate, we Gillian fans are generous enough to share a sprinkle of spotlight with them but just ask nicely and admit it instead of pulling every irrational reason into the picture, it just makes things worse. wacko.gif

Just a random expression, but did anyone read in the News Section that Joey is inviting Alan to be her guest at her mini concert?! Wouldn't it be great if Joey could invite Gillian as well? Then Gillian could do a duet with Alan again, or maybe even a duet with Joey! Anyway, there's my wishful thinking, but I highly doubt it would happen. If anything, it'd be have to be Twins but not just Gillian, and mini concerts rarely have more than one guest. down.gif
I read that piece of news as well. I'm so excited. Hopefully, I pray that Gillian or Twins for that fact will be featured as guest stars. I don't mind hearing another Alan-Sa duet as long as Alan-Gillian also performs one too. Um, why Show/Alan out of all people? That's just ironic so hopefully EEG has heard of the Alan-Gillian duet and is considering on surprising us with more duets? Me and my wishful thinking too but it doesn't hurt right? Go Alan-Gillian!

Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

I could just say that since Gillian has eyes, ears, a nose, and a mouth, and since I do too, that I'm just as beautiful as Gillian, and that I may be mixed too. dry.gif Besides, if Charlene really did say that Gillian was mixed, then it could be true. There have been many people asking if Gillian was mixed, and I saw in an interview that Joey herself said that Gillian looks like she could be mixed. So if her close friends say that, then there's a possibility of that being true. And maybe we never knew it was true or not because Gillian just never talked about it, but that doesn't mean that it can't be true.

Here's some funny pictures that I found...
This was last year, during the 'Trainee Cupid' promotion, they went on a variety show, and Twins were suppose to act a small skit, and here's a funny part when Gillian was acting.

It would be alright if Alan had separate duets with Gillian and Charlene, but I just don't want it to be a Twins+Alan duet. Not to be pessimistic or anything, but neither one of Alan nor Gillian have the enthusiasm to be battling with Charlene on-stage, so I could just see a Twins+Alan duet coming out horrible. smilie.GIF It is ironic that Alan's being invited by EEG to come be a guest for Joey just as we've been getting into discussions about him. laugh.gif Hopefully, EEG does have a surprise for us. If so, I do hope it's either just Gillian, or separate duets between Charlene and Gillian. Wishful thinking can't hurt; sometimes wishful thinking is good for making you feel better. If we start talking about wishful thinking, I bet we Gillian fans have a long list of wishful thinking that we hope EEG could accomplish, but it just probably won't happen. dry.gif

Thanks for sharing. Nic and Gillian would make a cute pair physically but in reality, remaining friends is good. blush.gif They're so cute together. Nic seems pretty relaxed around Gillian; he's always laughing or doing something around Gillian, can't help but think perhaps there are some special feelings here and there too but not too serious, just a small crush since Nic does have a big heart to share. loool.gif

Righ, it's ironic. Has Show/Alan and Joey ever interacted before? I wish Show/Alan would invite Gillian as one of his special guests in his upcoming concert with Rainie here at Las Vegas this August. sweat.gif I would love to see chemistry fly between Alan-Gillian. Hm, I have to admit, moving along from Edison-Gillian to Kenny-Gillian, and now, I love Alan-Gillian the most lol. They're just so compatible. Alan is quite a dare devil but also sweet and knows his boundaries, he's perfect for Gillian. Oh, he's pretty handsome too. clapping.gif

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that. If the mini concert has a time restraint, it will most likely turn into an Alan-Twins duet instead, which would ruin my mood. dry.gif Because we all know what happens when there is a special guest onstage with Twins. whistle.gif It's never a pretty scene. innocent.gif

Yup, there are so many things on my Wishful list but oh well, a lot of them have been answered despite the unanswered ones. n_tt2.gif Hm, that reminds me, would we have to wait forever for the Kenny-Gillian live duet?

Yeah, that's the Xiao S who praised the Alan-Gillian duet. Hm, I only have like 4 pictures of Nic-Gillian but I'm too lazy to find them in my saved away CDs, perhaps someone can help? There are quite a few Nic-Gillian fans entering back and forth too. sweat.gif

Alan and Joey have interacted before in a film that was made a few years ago back. The chemistry between Alan's and Gillian's voices strike me as well, but I'm still hanging on with my wish of seeing how Kenny's and Gillian's voices blend live. The voices probably don't blend as well as Alan's and Gillian's do, given KG's CD version versus AG's live singing, but Kenny's and Gillian's voices are still compatible. blush.gif I still love the KG pairing; they're just so cute in the MVs they did together! infatuated.gif I do hope Alan and Gillian get a chance to do an official collaboration live because the atmosphere with their previous duet was a little weird; it wasn't on official performing grounds, Gillian was a little nervous at first, and the two of them didn't have much interaction. Even though their voices summed everything up, I think their performance together will be even better if given a second chance during this upcoming concert because 1. It will be officially on-stage with just the two of them there. 2. Gillian won't be as nervous this time because she would already be sure that she and Alan do have chemistry with their voices, and this would be her second time round of singing with him. 3. Perhaps they could hold hands this time? blush.gif

Unless they only invited Gillian to the concert. whistle.gif Wishful thinking again, but that would be the best thing that could happen in this situation. It might not be that bad if it's Alan who's the special guest with Twins because he's bold enough to show how he feels towards things and is clear enough on his behalf not to play favourites. innocent.gif I still don't want to hear an Alan+Twins duet; that definitely won't turn out pretty.

Yep, the Kenny+Gillian live duet being released is one of the top things on my wishful list right now. Please don't tell me we have to wait three months before it's released just like the MV. n_thumbdown.gif

Which movie were they on? I don't think Gillian will be nervous since Gillian have so many live preformence experience. We all know eeg won't allow Gillian to attend the concert alone unless charlene filming a movie. And that would be great if Alan does attent twins concert as guest star. We just have to wait for it to release on tvb or something.

Gillian got her curls back! But at least at some function she's showing more skin. Though it might be a good thing, but this brown see through shirt over her black tube top does not match.

Just saw the performance of the HK 9 Ann. of the picture above, and their singing, you couldn't really tell because they had their CD playing in the background. But they was live singing. Also Gill was dancing not stiffly

I find it extremely rude that the audience only cheered for Gillian when SA performed just as well. You guys would be irritated too if it was the same thing in reverse. I can't believe "fans" sometimes. And I don't think Sa shot Gillian any "look" either. Uh. geeze. I don't care if people prefer Gillian - but at last be respectful to Sa too, yah? I feel that Sa fans should do the same for Gillian.

Since you guys criticised Sa's singing in some above posts, do you mind if I give my perspective on Gill's singing? Cause honestly I find it no better than Ah Sa's, singing wise, I find that they are equal. But this thread seems to be gushing with positive comments on Gill and negative on Ah Sa, I am not going to talk about ym feelings on Charlene cause it's rather useless...but do you mind if I give some constructive criticism on Gill's singing? You can disagree with me all you want. I don't care about that. I just don't think it's neccisarily BAD to get a different viewpoint. And please keep in mind I am not hear to bash Gillian. I am only going to talk about Gillian because this is Gillian's thread. If you want to read what I have to say about Sa's singing then skip on over to the Sa thread. Where I also will be giving out constrcutive criticism.

Okay..to start with the positives.

I think Gill's voice is sweet. very very sweet. And I enjoy listening to her sing in her natural voice. Her voice is also versitle, which I enjoy. And I am happy at her attempts at making vibrato although I hope they are NATURAL vibratos. because forced vibratos can ruin your vocal chords and I don't want her to ruin her pretty voice sad-smiley-065.gif It's hard for me to tell whether they are forced or not at this point because they are only a bit perceptable. You would have to be paying attention to hear them, they don't jump out at you like WOW. But perhaps that's a good thing. I think too much emphasis on vibrato can ruin a song anyway. A nice little vibrato to end a long, soft note is lovely, though smile.gif She also can protrude emotions well =D


And...the not-so-positives.



I think Gillian needs to work on her support. Her voice sounds so thin at times, to the point where it's airy and nasally. And she cannot sustain the pitch well with lack of support. I think Gill is relying on her head voice for her upper notes, which is why her notes have excellent clarity, but I think she needs to draw more support from her diaphram to give the note the little "oomph" they need to stay on pitch and not sound so thin.

She also needs to work on her slides, or transitions, between pitches. This is tricky for a lot of people. Gillian tends to go quite off pitch when doing these slides. They are hard though and require lots of practice to get it down well, and time isn't exactly something Gillian has a lot of.

And remembering her lyrics sometimes *laughs* It's okay though - she's cute when she messes up!





I hope no one get's angry at me for this. I have Gillian's best interests in mind too - I think some people forget here that I am a fan of both Twins hehe. I know I seem like I am being a brute but I am just trying to be realistic. I have seen comments about how "perfect" Gill's voice is, or how she hit every note...and....wellt hat is that persons opinion, i guess....and I just disagree with it completely. Neither Twin has giving a perfect performance so far. Good - yeah, but I feel perfect is pushing it. Both of them STILL need to work on their live singing before they venture solo. Twins are still known for their cutesy looks and "catchy" songs, they have a ways to go before they can really become respected singers.

---

About Gillian's ethnicity. Well...as far as anyone knows she is full chinese, right? I think she looks most decidely chinese. And it's rare but not uncommon for a full chinese gal to have sharp features. How about that model who was in Twins Effect 2 (and played the queen) named Qu Ying? She is full chinese but doesn't look it at all. But then agian it's quite possible she is mixed too. I don't see why it matters though - is it better to be mixed? Or some how percieved to be so? I don't see what all the fuss is about personally LOL. only that it would be an interesting fact...

--

And THANKS for the pictures of Gill as Ching Ling So (Did i get the name right? Ehh...it's late...XD) she looks so beautiful and I cannot WAIT for this to be released. I forget, is it going to be done in mando or canto? I actually am hoping for mandarin since I am taking a course in mandarin when Uni starts, and I could use the serial to help me as well as entertain me. Cause I could never get tired of looking at Gill's face. Although her singing isn't perfect to me, her face is as near to it as can be without being, well, boring (perfection is rather boring IMO. Quirks give more character, and more character is more beautiful.)

Now that you said it, I felt bad for encouraging it because I'm being a hypocrite(been one unconsciously too much unsure.gif ) I wasn't too pleased when the Charlene fans had done somethings much worse and rude to Gillian down.gif

And I am happy at her attempts at making vibrato although I hope they are NATURAL vibratos. because forced vibratos can ruin your vocal chords and I don't want her to ruin her pretty voice sad-smiley-065.gif It's hard for me to tell whether they are forced or not at this point because they are only a bit perceptable. You would have to be paying attention to hear them, they don't jump out at you like WOW. But perhaps that's a good thing. I think too much emphasis on vibrato can ruin a song anyway. A nice little vibrato to end a long, soft note is lovely, though smile.gif She also can protrude emotions well =D

And...the not-so-positives.
I think Gillian needs to work on her support. Her voice sounds so thin at times, to the point where it's airy and nasally. And she cannot sustain the pitch well with lack of support. I think Gill is relying on her head voice for her upper notes, which is why her notes have excellent clarity, but I think she needs to draw more support from her diaphram to give the note the little "oomph" they need to stay on pitch and not sound so thin. She also needs to work on her slides, or transitions, between pitches. This is tricky for a lot of people. Gillian tends to go quite off pitch when doing these slides. They are hard though and require lots of practice to get it down well, and time isn't exactly something Gillian has a lot of.

And remembering her lyrics sometimes *laughs* It's okay though - she's cute when she messes up!


From what I read, your criticisms are more general in terms of her singing ability.

Wow...your criticism is so "music talks" that I got confused. Since I've never took music listens, that's a whole lot to disgest blush.gif

For me, I compliment Gillian for what I observe so "musically" sometimes (or most of the time) it's going to be wrong and bias (if you want to say) because it's strictly opinion and observation. I've mention that before that I'm no expert innocent.gif Just to warn you when you read what I have to say. sweat.gif We do have criticisms on Gillian's singing but just (definitely) not as much as we praise her. Everybody does that laugh.gif

About expressing a lot of negativity on Charlene's part, well for me, that's what I hear from Twins' recent performances. Loud singing - now slowly getting softer in the recent new songs ( good improvement), breathing - even you agreed with it, notes - kind of unstable at high notes and sometimes crack/comes out really sharp to the ear (take the Alan-Charlene duet) but what you mean is for us to keep the negative comment of Charlene in the Gillian thread away right? sweat.gif

I hope no one get's angry at me for this. I have Gillian's best interests in mind too - I think some people forget here that I am a fan of both Twins hehe. I know I seem like I am being a brute but I am just trying to be realistic. I have seen comments about how "perfect" Gill's voice is, or how she hit every note...and....wellt hat is that persons opinion, i guess....and I just disagree with it completely. Neither Twin has giving a perfect performance so far. Good - yeah, but I feel perfect is pushing it. Both of them STILL need to work on their live singing before they venture solo. Twins are still known for their cutesy looks and "catchy" songs, they have a ways to go before they can really become respected singers.


Not angry. Just hope I don't give that perception in my post wacko.gif I think Gillian's voice is "perfect" because it's so sweet and soothing to the ear lmao.gif (I know that's not what you mean about "perfect" voice. I'm cheezy wacko.gif )

About Gillian's ethnicity. Well...as far as anyone knows she is full chinese, right? I think she looks most decidely chinese. And it's rare but not uncommon for a full chinese gal to have sharp features. How about that model who was in Twins Effect 2 (and played the queen) named Qu Ying? She is full chinese but doesn't look it at all. But then agian it's quite possible she is mixed too. I don't see why it matters though - is it better to be mixed? Or some how percieved to be so? I don't see what all the fuss is about personally LOL. only that it would be an interesting fact...


Did you mean a fuss in this thread? All I knew was talking about how a poster in another forum were making a fuss about it. I think it's an interesting fact though. Either way it's good on Gillian's part to have such nice features.

First time in a performace of "Around The World With 80 Dollars" that I saw Gillian do the robot move. Since the camera is always on Charlene since she is singing. Hm... Charlene looks tired doing one of the dance move. Oh well!

Poor Char! Usually I say Gill because she's wearing the long slevee but this time it's Char and its sweaty hot, and she's wearing longslevee

Thanks for the pictures and video.

I like Gillian's hairstyle and I like Gillian's outfit (from how much I could see). The last picture, when I looked at it, I was like, "What happened to Gillian's hair?" lolx...then I look closely and I think there's a person behind her....Oh..Gillian got flowers!

I find it extremely rude that the audience only cheered for Gillian when SA performed just as well. You guys would be irritated too if it was the same thing in reverse. I can't believe "fans" sometimes. And I don't think Sa shot Gillian any "look" either. Uh. geeze. I don't care if people prefer Gillian - but at last be respectful to Sa too, yah? I feel that Sa fans should do the same for Gillian.

Well, you are right on that one. It is rude to do so, but we were just peeved of the incident of a Charlene fan expressing her dislike towards Gillian and support towards Charlene during the autograph session. You are completely correct on how fans should respect other idols, but it's so unfortunate that it rarely happens.
QUOTE(Alexa @ Jul 2 2006 2 22 AM) [snapback]2607452[/snapback]

Since you guys criticised Sa's singing in some above posts, do you mind if I give my perspective on Gill's singing? Cause honestly I find it no better than Ah Sa's, singing wise, I find that they are equal. But this thread seems to be gushing with positive comments on Gill and negative on Ah Sa, I am not going to talk about ym feelings on Charlene cause it's rather useless...but do you mind if I give some constructive criticism on Gill's singing? You can disagree with me all you want. I don't care about that. I just don't think it's neccisarily BAD to get a different viewpoint. And please keep in mind I am not hear to bash Gillian. I am only going to talk about Gillian because this is Gillian's thread. If you want to read what I have to say about Sa's singing then skip on over to the Sa thread. Where I also will be giving out constrcutive criticism.

Definitely no anger will happen for your perspectives. It's a good thing that you're speaking out about your thoughts; that's what this thread is for, constructive discussion. We really should be discussing on both negatives and positives of Gillian here, but I guess our passion for Gillian just takes over from time to time. sweat.gif When dealing with an idol, don't positives usually magnify themselves? As bluehearts said, all fans are hypocrites in some way; I don't deny that I'm a hypocrite either, but it really depends on to what point is a person hypocritic, towards which things, and when one is hypocritic. Don't mind if I say that sometimes people do get overboard with it.

I agree of how you mentioned that Gillian should get her voice to be more solid. We've been discussing about that earlier, of how we noticed that Gillian hasn't been letting her voice expand fully, which makes it sound thin. I'm quite satisfied with her respiration though; she has a good control of her breathing. I actually feel that she doesn't gather her voice up from her throat, but it does come from down in the stomach. Their mandarin song performances are good though, both of them. I'd say they must have been practicing those especially for these moments, but they are good. sweat.gif On the side, it's still the same request that we've been asking for for a long time; more challenging songs are needed. You've mentioned about the slides, transitions, and between pitches that Gillian should work on, but are there that many places in Twins songs that she can do that in? Twins songs are very simplified and are merely catchy. We're definite that neither of them are able to rely on the cuteness or catchy songs forever, so I still think that letting them have more challenges is more practical to their singing skills.

And THANKS for the pictures of Gill as Ching Ling So (Did i get the name right? Ehh...it's late...XD) she looks so beautiful and I cannot WAIT for this to be released. I forget, is it going to be done in mando or canto? I actually am hoping for mandarin since I am taking a course in mandarin when Uni starts, and I could use the serial to help me as well as entertain me. Cause I could never get tired of looking at Gill's face. Although her singing isn't perfect to me, her face is as near to it as can be without being, well, boring (perfection is rather boring IMO. Quirks give more character, and more character is more beautiful.)

It's just an interesting fact, and since we don't know for sure about it, it's an amusing topic for us to discuss before we get clarification. It's not necessarily a big fuss. sweat.gif

The serial is going to be dual language; the cast from HK spoke Cantonese while filming as the cast from Mainland spoke Mandarin during filming. There will be two versions of the serial released, one Cantonese and one Mandarin. Depending on where it's being aired, the voices will be dubbed to the preferred language, but some will remain original if it's already in that language.

I am not going reply indvidually because I don't have the time smile.gif I never meant to say to not discuss the negative aspects about Sa's singing. They rarely do in the Sa thread anyway so I am being a bit of a hypocrite too =D Skipping through this thread (I don't have the time to read it all! You guys are crazy - but in a good way smile.gif) I didn't see much other then praise. You mentioned that you had expressed the not so positives on Gill's voice, I just must not have read it, sorry XD It was just something on my mind for awhile regaurding both Twins. I get a bit frustrated when I want to say what I really think but don't cause people might view it as being mean. I don't intend to be mean and actually, I dislike confrontation for the most part =D

And bluehearts, your explanation of what you meant by perfect was right on, thank you. I misunderstood because I took it to mean perfect as in technical-wise smile.gif

And I didn't mean the fuss on this thread! I mean the fuss about being mixed in general. LOL I see it all over the place. Whenever there is a topic on a pretty girl I usually see the question, and often more than once, "Is she mixed?" LOL. And there seems to be a perception that mixed people are always good looking. I just don't understand it, to be honest. *shrugs*

And thanks for telling me about the dual language release thing. That's a pretty good idea though I kind of despise dubbing =D Maybe I'll watch both versions since the mando one will have gillian dubbed sad-smiley-065.gif

Gillian injured her throat during the filming of House Of Fury, someone accidently kicked her in the throat resulting in painful internal bleeding. Hm, ironically, I don't remember reading news about it either or perhaps I missed it? blink.gif Little_Purple_Bell informed us a while ago, which made perfect sense because Gillian does sound quite different from earlier live performances before the accident. And what is most funny is, news this serious, any type of internal bleeding is life threatening, never got majorly publicized or made into reasonable excuses why Gillian couldn't sing decently for a period of time. Everyone sympathized for Sa and her surgeries but does anyone else know except for the fans that visit this thread that Gillian went through hell as well, afraid she may never fully recover, especially her voice box, the most essential part, the main powerhouse of her career? And what did Mani and the rest of EEG do afterwards? They just simply brushed it aside and continued stacking up projects for Gillian without much rest. dry.gif Yet Gillian never really announced her complaints or overwhelming pressure. I mean, here Gillian is scared to death about her health yet she still has to hop onstage, face the audience and sing, sing with half the energy and abilities she used to have. On top of that, because Gillian didn't make a huge deal out of it, the audience had no idea what fears were attacking Gillian and only criticized her more and more that she couldn't sing period, which was not the case at all. I admire Gillian. Now she is the strongest one of all and quite humble. down.gif


Wow, how can someone just accidently kicked someone oh the throat? It's probably during one of those fighting scene then. I can't believe they would do that. I mean, it's true what you said. When Charlene's sick or something happens to her news fly everywhere but Gillian--nothing.
I agree with you, Gillian is the strongest one and very humble to have continue on with everything knowing she was injured badly. Knowing that now I admire her even more and praise her more because of the courage she has in her. I know that most singer who have just been through that tremendous injury would likely be resting and not sing for awhile and yet Gillian didn't. She probably didn't complain about anything because that's who she is. She's dedicated to her career and her job which really amaze me even more because of how well she handles everything. It just proves what kind of person Gillian is.

Gillian got her curls back! But at least at some function she's showing more skin. Though it might be a good thing, but this brown see through shirt over her black tube top does not match.

IPB Image

Just saw the performance of the HK 9 Ann. of the picture above, and their singing, you couldn't really tell because they had their CD playing in the background. But they was live singing. Also Gill was dancing not stiffly


Oh, so pretty. It's good to see her show a little skin. I don't really care if it doesn't match but she's showing. Just little more improvement that's all. Still every glamourous.

I've taken music classes for the last 12 years and you're right Gillian does need improvement, too. But I have to disagree on you with when you said that she needs support from her diaphram. Like Little_Purple_Bell said, she's singing from the diaphram. You can tell if someone's not singing from the diaphram or not. If they weren't singing from there it would sound all nasally and I don't think Gillian does that. She does her singing really well although she still needs improvement but she'll get there same goes with Charlene. They both need improvement.

I think these tv serials should start having english subtitles, universal language, instead of putting on their respective language subtitles that the actors already speaking or have both on it. thumbsup.gif Makes it less difficult for people (like us).

I'd say don't get yourself frustrated of holding something that you want to say in; we don't all have to agree on things in a thread. If you notice anything that you'd like to express, just go ahead and express it. I'm sure the things you say will have reasons to go along with it. smile.gif Differed opinions are good in a thread because that's where we get discussions started. It would get dull if one person says something, and everyone else just agrees to it. I understand of how Charlene fans most likely won't like it when we criticize Charlene on things because Gillian fans most likely wouldn't like it either vice versa. It's just the things with fans to their idols. Now that I think of it, hm, I thought we did say that we were going to try to lay off on the excess comments on Charlene? sweat.gif But it's just hard to keep it in since they do perform together. sweat.gif

Oh, I see what you mean about the fuss now! I suppose it's just stereotyped that mixed people are 'always' beautiful? Oh boy, there are bad mixes though. It probably really sums down to the genes in the end instead of blood mixing. Blood mixing may have some kind of factor, but it's not the whole part of it.

Wow..... I went to take a look there after reading what you wrote, and there definitely is a bit of a rage about us there. sweat.gif

As for my comments about Gillian's singing, I'd say I'm probably not very general with it either since I'm no expert. It's been a few years that I've put down my singing lessons because of the lack of time, so I'm basically only judging from a perspective of an outdated singer with vague memory. sweat.gif I basically only remember the basics, like respiration, volume, and usage of voice through differed notes. Anything further than that, I most likely won't notice much flaw. As you've stated, bluehearts, it's basically just what's audible. sweat.gif So yeah, I won't deny about anything of being biased with my comments.

TVB has started putting the option of subtitles on their DVDs; they have English subtitles with their serials. I was so amused with that when it just started. laugh.gif My family liked having the Chinese subtitles there, but I'd always switch it to English when I had the chance. Although it was a bit awkward watching an ancient serial with English words popping up on the screen.

I'm not sure about the airing times of a serial in Mainland. It most likely should be five episodes a week from Monday to Friday like in HK though. One episode a week is an absolute pain; a twenty episode serial would take five months. wacko.gif Think of Gillian's serial, it's forty episodes. duh.gif
asillysaint
I'll be heading off to summer break so I won't be in as much but hopefully you guys will keep the thread growing. sweat.gif

Just visited the Sa thread after all of the comments, it's a pity how Sa fans misread, misinterpret, or miss reading posts altogether that answer their inquiries. Just to clarify once more, Gillian fans on this thread have touched basis from bad to good, bias to fair, and tears to joy in regards to Gillian whether it be music, acting, or simply her personal life and relationships, please go back further into the thread for those posts because they're pretty scattered. Ironically, as much as Gillian fans praise Gillian, I see no discussion about Sa's flaws either in her thread so I see no point in why Sa fans have to feel so upset when we exchange opinions about Gillian's strengths more than weaknesses. Besides, there is already a Gillian Haters' Thread in the Critics Section, please, anyone who wishes to relieve their anger or hatreds towards Gillian and her flaws, share it over there not because we absolutely have nothing to pull up about Gillian's flaws but like I've mentioned before, there are so many pieces of news popping up daily, new live performances, new events rushing in and other neat things to chat about, we simply don't have room conversing about Gillian's flaws. Seriously, all of Gillian's most recent live performances have been nothing but amazing work. Honestly, I haven't visited the Sa thread for a while now because I'm pretty busy as it is, if anyone feels that the Gillian thread is too overwhelming then perhaps they should save themselves some sweat and not visit so often. Not to step on anyone's toes but frankly, Gillian fans do have a right to discuss issues in association to Gillian. I mean, afterall, this is the Gillian thread right? sweat.gif

I'm not going to dwell into music or acting because that apparently falls into preference so explaining won't make much difference. If Sa fans enjoy what they listen to in terms of Sa's voice in live performances and her perky film roles then I'm not going to bud into that.

Personally, I enjoy Gillian's voice; it's very versatile. And her different film roles but I don't intend to persuade anyone into believing what I admire, that's why the majority of Gillian discussions are kept at her thread and not elsewhere.

No one on this thread made a huge fuss about Gillian being mixed or not, it was a hardcore Sa fan from a Chinese forum that claimed to know more than Gillian herself that Gillian is absolutely not mixed, which Gillian hasn't even clarified anything yet. rolleyes.gif That was just odd and amusing. Gillian is still Gillian, mixed or not.

Just be glad that at least Gillian fans worldwide have never personally went up to Sa's face and humiliated her like what a few Sa fans have done to Gillian. Our petty discussions and observations about Twins in general are no where near that extreme of hate including that applaud from the audience. whistle.gif

Another clarification, no one ever mentioned that Sa's personality was detestable. There have been articles about Gillian hanging out with Yumiko and usually during functions, Gillian and Joey seem pretty close; Joey even made a joke out of it but nowhere near Sa's personality being rotten. We were just discussing how Twins may have friends outside of each other because news seem to show that way. And Gillian's personality is quite naive, sweet, and honest, even Mani stated so. That's all.

Anyway, not to offend anyone in any way either, just being honest like everyone has expressed.

Um, Gillian's recent outfits haven't been that covered up lately, that's good. Gillian needs a good tan. sweat.gif

Thank God, TVB has been investing in subtitles and I'm actually quite surprised, the subtitles make sense. loool.gif Um, but unfortunately, when I went searching for recent TVB serials with subtitles, there are none?

Anyway, Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

Well I am no singing expect either. LOL. I know some terms because I have been a quest to improve my vocals. I use to have a terrible, terrible voice. But through research and practice I don't think I am terrible now. Not great though. I wish i had a singing instructor, though. So I am not the best to asses Gill's qualities. I just listen carefully and judge based on my own musical knowledge and experiances. I ise to sing very nasally and not from my diaphram. But now I know better. For the most part I think Gill DOES sing from her diaphram. But when it comes to sustaining notes and especially the high, fluctuating notes, I felt that did tend to go a bit nasally.

I did stir up a little bit didn't I? Ah. Well. They are just frustrated a bit. It CAN be frustrating as a Sa fan in here at times, I know this ^^ I avoided this thread for awhile because of it (and as a result I am sooo lost, you guys have a LOT to say *grin*) I don't think they mean anything by it though - most of us respect the enthusiasm you have for Gillian ^^ It's admirable.

And ooohhhhhhh I remembering reading news on Gillians throat injury. She also injured her back a little didn't she during HoF? Cause I distinctly remember her standing in a funny way as a result of the injury ^^ And I do think it was a function she attended without Ah Sa, she hair her hair tied back tightly and a cute but slightly uncomfortable grin smile.gif

Aw, I've never seen this fan made music video starring Shawn Yue and Gillian Chung, so cute together as well. If only Edison and Gillian had a bit more sweet scenes like this, the audience would have gone berserk in support lol. infatuated.gif

All I have to say is that both Gillian and Charlene have their flaws that they need to work on. They're not perfect because if they are then they would be robots. They're humans so let it be.

Thanks for the pictures and video.

I like Gillian's hairstyle and I like Gillian's outfit (from how much I could see). The last picture, when I looked at it, I was like, "What happened to Gillian's hair?" lolx...then I look closely and I think there's a person behind her....Oh..Gillian got flowers!


Lol that's the same thing I thought when I saw that picture. I was like "Huh how come Gill only got on side of her hair braided?" And then I looked closer... "Ooo.." Lol

From what you said the thread doesn't sound soo good..but I'll take a look at it anyways.

Edited: I sooo argee with you gReenBuTTerfly, there are such big Hypocrites in there! Not you Alexa, because you stated Charlene good and bad points. But something I really didn't like about Charlene thread was because they used the excuse that how Gillian thread critize on Charlene, and that's why they don't come to this thread. Fine! I'm alright with that because that's the same reason I don't go over there because what they be talking about Gillian! But you know what? I'm not going say anything, nothing because I'm scared, because what's the point? They aren't going to get it through their head. Maybe they read one of our post singing Charlene sings loud and it's cracking.. whatever and they think we are bashing on Charlene..gosh....

TVB has started putting the option of subtitles on their DVDs; they have English subtitles with their serials. I was so amused with that when it just started. laugh.gif My family liked having the Chinese subtitles there, but I'd always switch it to English when I had the chance. Although it was a bit awkward watching an ancient serial with English words popping up on the screen.

I'm not sure about the airing times of a serial in Mainland. It most likely should be five episodes a week from Monday to Friday like in HK though. One episode a week is an absolute pain; a twenty episode serial would take five months. wacko.gif Think of Gillian's serial, it's forty episodes. duh.gif[/font][/color]


Oh really? That's nice much easier for other people if they dont know the language. I have no problem with it because I understand it but now I wish Taiwan and Mainland, China does the same loool.gif Mandarin is what I have struggles with.

I'll be heading off to summer break so I won't be in as much but hopefully you guys will keep the thread growing. sweat.gif

Just visited the Sa thread after all of the comments, it's a pity how Sa fans misread, misinterpret, or miss reading posts altogether that answer their inquiries. Just to clarify once more, Gillian fans on this thread have touched basis from bad to good, bias to fair, and tears to joy in regards to Gillian whether it be music, acting, or simply her personal life and relationships, please go back further into the thread for those posts because they're pretty scattered. Ironically, as much as Gillian fans praise Gillian, I see no discussion about Sa's flaws either in her thread so I see no point in why Sa fans have to feel so upset when we exchange opinions about Gillian's strengths more than weaknesses. Besides, there is already a Gillian Haters' Thread in the Critics Section, please, anyone who wishes to relieve their anger or hatreds towards Gillian and her flaws, share it over there not because we absolutely have nothing to pull up about Gillian's flaws but like I've mentioned before, there are so many pieces of news popping up daily, new live performances, new events rushing in and other neat things to chat about, we simply don't have room conversing about Gillian's flaws. Seriously, all of Gillian's most recent live performances have been nothing but amazing work. Honestly, I haven't visited the Sa thread for a while now because I'm pretty busy as it is, if anyone feels that the Gillian thread is too overwhelming then perhaps they should save themselves some sweat and not visit so often. Not to step on anyone's toes but frankly, Gillian fans do have a right to discuss issues in association to Gillian. I mean, afterall, this is the Gillian thread right? sweat.gif

Another clarification, no one ever mentioned that Sa's personality was detestable. There have been articles about Gillian hanging out with Yumiko and usually during functions, Gillian and Joey seem pretty close; Joey even made a joke out of it but nowhere near Sa's personality being rotten. We were just discussing how Twins may have friends outside of each other because news seem to show that way. And Gillian's personality is quite naive, sweet, and honest, even Mani stated so. That's all.



Oh..have fun wherever you are going! smile.gif

Yea, I notice how they "translates"/digest what they read from our thread shocked.gif I hate it when people tells someone else something they are not sure of but worse if they are totally not what had happened/said. That's how it leads to bigger misunderstandings wacko.gif

Anyways, I don't see a problem when we said that Gillian and Charlene don't hang out with the same people whistle.gif but I don't understand how they got the message that we said Charlene had a bad personality. shocked.gif It's amazing to know how human minds work lmao.gif

I think they are mad because we had been saying negative stuff of Charlene (and may I say, it's not out of hatred of any kind)....but I thought they said it's good to know some flaws of Charlene's shocked.gif Wouldn't this be it and we do not throw these negative comments for no reason so I think this is what they mean flaws. I guess it really depends on who is saying out the flaws, because if it's a Gillian fan, they would think it's an insult and with a Charlene fan, it's just "good criticisms" and vice versa. It's consciousness and perception of fans in general I guess. blush.gif

I agree. That must hurt a lot more. The applauding for Gillian just like the military guys choosing to take pictures with Charlene and left Gillian alone in the corner down.gif Actually, these are not that bad but just like Alexa said, a little rude.

wow long time no here and looks like I did miss out A LOT!!!!
________
talking about Gillian's voice, I don't know if this had been said before, but in the 我很想愛他 song, I heard that a bit at the end (around the third minute) when Twins went to upper note, you can actually hear Charlene kinda soften a bit and didn't hit onto the high note like Gillian's voice. I don'T know if it's just me, but I think her accident had somehow allow her voice to 'evolute' a bit. Even though now, she still can't always express all what she wants while singing, but it seems like her voice is stronger then before. I remember her solo long ago or when she sang alone, her voice wasn't as strong like now, also she used to go off key pretty often before.

Maybe it's because everyone made improvement, but Charlene seemed, maybe have improve more in acting since I remember this new saying she was gonna act for a scary movie (ahem....got scared of 49 days ¬.¬) so maybe, Charlene wasn't really focusing much on singing while Mani doesn't seem to make Gillian progressed...so I guess she can't do much more than sing.

Last thing, about the clip where Gillian chose Edison, can someone please reupload it for me PLEASE!!!!! I'm an EG fan and well I missed it ¬.¬

thanks a lot!

I am glad that you realize that this is a Gillian thread. Any discussion about Gillian Chung and association with her are welcome, but as a suggestion, to limit any negative feelings against the fans and non-Twin fans alike, any discussion about Charlene should be discussed in her thread, and if anyone wishes to discuss about Charlene’s flaws and express their discontent, hate, it is not hard to cruise on by to this thread:

http://asianfanatics.net/forum/index.php?s...7317&st=200

This thread is Gillian Chung’s thread, not Gillian Chung and 1/5 Charlene Choi thread, nor is it the Twins thread. There is a Twins thread at AF at this site:

If I don’t come here, then how would I be able to respond to it or were you looking for no response? sweat.gif I enjoy the discussions about Gillian’s achievements but not so much when it comes to the discussions that involve Charlene.

Living in the U.S of A, there's freedom of Speech--



Perhaps we’re not reading the same Charlene thread or perhaps you do not even go there at all, but I think I’ve read almost every post in that thread ever since I started posted, and I have not seen the bashing about Gillian you mentioned. Other than pictures of Gillian posted because Charlene is in the pictures, there are very, very few bashing and much less posts regarding Gillian. And even if there are posts, there are usually more praises on Gillian than bashing. Even in the last few ‘negative’ posts, there is only one bashing about Gillian herself (if you count it as bashing), but most are merely complaints on posts in this thread.

Actually, you are right, as a supporter of your idol, you can praise them all you want. No one said that you can’t. However, that topic was brought up in the Charlene thread because Alexa mentioned that fans should know the good and bad things about their idols in order for them to not look too foolish, and other members agreed in that thread. Of course you have a right to disagree, but since it has nothing to do with this thread, it would make more sense to reply to that thread and not this thread. blink.gif

You can only have one screen name at AF, if you find anyone that logs in with different screen names, please send me or higher mods a PM. Thanks.

You can have freedom of speech in the US, but since this is the AF forum and as an AF member, you should follow their guidelines as much as possible in these threads. Please respect other members’ opinions as other members respect your opinions. If you have time check out the guidelines page:

Flaws are much welcome in the critics thread I posted above. Feel free to discuss flaws and discontent there. There’s really no point to discuss Charlene’s flaws in a Gillian thread, other than you get other Gillian fans agreeing with you. What is the point of that?

What applauding for Gillian about military guys? Did something happen?

Anyhoo, I hope this post clears things up. To clear any further tension and disputes between fans and to be fair, it is suggested that any further discussion about Charlene should be in her thread, any discussion about flaws in the critics thread. If you are a fan of Charlene, then you are as welcome in the Charlene thread as in this thread. As I’ve said, there is no point discussing about Charlene in this thread. If Charlene needs to be discussed due to her association with Gillian, because they are in the same group, then they are consider ‘Twins’, and any further discussion about Twins should be in the Twins thread for you to discuss.

Thanks. I'm just cruising with my family to Canada so it really depends if there's connection to my laptop or not. down.gif

I feel the same way. If any comments in relation to Sa is shared from Gillian fans, they automatically switch on a defensive mode of some type even though the comments may not even contain such harsh content. The majority of comments on this thread directly correlate with one of Twins most recent events, not just based on who's prettier, who's cuter, or who's better at acting and singing. When we discuss about films, it's about the screentime, roles, and development of the storyline altogether. When we exchange opinions about music, we analyze based on what you said, what the human ears can hear and observe on. When we cheer on a pair whether it be EG, KG or Alan-G, we associate that couple to a recent piece of news/event or past news that never surfaced before.

Jadedreams27: Thank you for the suggestion but I find it a bit heavy on our side of the bargain. Of course, Gillian and Sa are two separate individuals who have two different threads and a main thread for Twins discussions but mainly our discussions involve Gillian, the only times we refer to Sa or Twins in general is when it visibly impacts Gillian. I don't want others to criticize me or other Gillian fans as being disruptive or trying to break Twins apart in the Twins thread. It's quite impossible not to mention Sa, Gillian, or Twins in either a Sa or Gillian thread so I don't see the necessity of drawing such a solid line in what to chat about in each thread. It's quite difficult to completely divide them apart like that when they're a pair, they do almost everything together. Personally, since I'm more of a Gillian fan, I choose to interact here rather than the Twins thread just like many of you Sa fans. Just to please everyone, Sa's name won't pop up as much but like I said, don't be surprised if it does sporadically because afterall Sa is a part of Gillian. whistle.gif

For example, I'm not going to enter the Twins thread and begin discussing how ridiculous some Sa fans were by humiliating Gillian that way. Why? Fans perceive them as Twins, some unbreakable bond or something, that's why I choose to ramble here and not there. See how impossible it is to exclude Sa's name out too?

Anyway, I read it with an open mind but at times, an open mind is not the issue but rather who one supports and favors over the other which is clearly shown no matter how open minded one may wish to be.

Well, it's kind of hard to totally abondon the other partner when they are in a group and attend things together especially in music. Mostly, when we give criticisms on Charlene is when it is directly related to Gillian at that event. Well, we can't really go to the Twins thread if most of our post is filled with Gillian, just like the Charlene fans doesn't go to the Twins thread when they include a little of Gillian in their post considering their posts are not that lengthy unsure.gif These things are really hard to measure.

And may I repeat, these criticisms of Charlene are not out of nowhere where we just suddenly felt like bashing her sweat.gif I just want to say that these negative comments weren't given purposely to make Charlene look bad but I guess it's not going to be taken well unless it's praises, right? blush.gif

If there were any huge critiques on Charlene's thread about Gillian, I think it would bring up a lot of discontent in this thread. Flaws are much welcome in the critics thread I posted above. Feel free to discuss flaws and discontent there. There’s really no point to discuss Charlene’s flaws in a Gillian thread, other than you get other Gillian fans agreeing with you. What is the point of that?

Anyhoo, I hope this post clears things up. To clear any further tension and disputes between fans and to be fair, it is suggested that any further discussion about Charlene should be in her thread, any discussion about flaws in the critics thread. If you are a fan of Charlene, then you are as welcome in the Charlene thread as in this thread. As I’ve said, there is no point discussing about Charlene in this thread. If Charlene needs to be discussed due to her association with Gillian, because they are in the same group, then they are consider ‘Twins’, and any further discussion about Twins should be in the Twins thread for you to discuss.


So, it's actually pretty normal to see this thread filled with praises for Gillian since you said these threads are for praising and the critic threads are for the flaws. No one should be feeling overwhelming then? wacko.gif

You know, we should do that. Charlene fans point out Gillian's flaws and Gillian fans point out Charlene's flaws (with good reasoning and proof) because as you can see we, as fans, can be really bias and unwilling to share our idol's flaws clapping.gif <--this sounds really much like a sacarasm but no, I seriously think it's a pretty good idea. innocent.gif But of course, it's still up to the fans to judge if it's an insult to their idol or not.

Anyways, I usually only make comments on Gillian so I would have no problem talking less about Charlene if that would make the Charlene fans more content with this thread. So you guys were just mad because we said her flaws in the Gillian thread instead of in the Charlene thread or the critic hangout blink.gif But what's the point in saying it in the critics hangout when the haters are just going to agree with it? unsure.gif (Man, I sound stupid for asking these questions laugh.gif )

The only thing I would suggest regarding this thread is working on the quotes. Try not to quote too much.


What's the problem with quoting each other. unsure.gif You mean the big paragraph quoting or just having a number of quotings? I guess it's just more specific and less confusing for the reader in general to quote our exact responses. Sometimes it gets confusing, like what is she/he perferring too sweat.gif

What applauding for Gillian about military guys? Did something happen?


Oops...just read my sentence. It's totally confusing even for me and I wrote it wacko.gif I meant the clip that was shared in this thread how the audience appluaded for Gillian after she sang and not when Charlene finished her verse. I'm just saying how this incident is just a little rude like the event, where the soldiers took pictures with Charlene and left Gillian by the corner, compared to the more humiliating things some Charlene fans had exposed to Gillian down.gif

I wonder if you would be reading this because you don't like coming to the Gillian thread anymore loool.gif
Beaa
Man, oh man. I been through both Gill and Char's thread, and some peoples just make me want topunch black and blue on their face i mean both girls had their weakness, they're human too, you know? No one is perfect. I'm more of Gill fan, so ofcourse it make really mad everytime other people say something bad about her, or point out something ridiculous and make it seem like bad. For instance, how peoples alway claim that Gill is fat, of course she look healthy stand next to Char, have you see that girl? i mean, everyone is chubby stand next to Char or Joey. I like my idol to look healthy and not skinny.
It's kind of normal for one fan point out the other's flaw, just don't bring it to their's thread. True that Gill's singing is kind of soft. What you expect from her, try to scream like Char? and then take big fat gulp of air, so notice. I mean, im not Chinese, but i can hear what on tune and off. You can sing out, as long your singing skill is good. You can hear how on and off note Char is 'cause she practicaly screaming like that. I'm not saying that Gill doesnt, but at least, she doesnt scream out her flaw. Everyone keep saying how chubby Gill is, why don't they see how skinny Char is. That not very healthy.

First of all, I would like to apologize for posting in here and interrupting the discussion about Gillian. This forum is suppose to be about Gillian herself, and I’ve posted very off-topic several times. This would be my last post regarding my suggestion. If you wish to discuss any further, please PM me instead. hug.gif

The critics hangout is for members to express opinions whether it be discussion about flaws, constructive criticism, or pure venting. Of course there would be haters who would agree, but there would also be defenders who are allowed to defend their idols. When you discuss about Charlene in here, how would other people know about it? I think it would be interesting to see other members’ viewpoints about it.

These forums are for discussions about a specific idol. The main point I brought up many times is that this forum should be about Gillian Chung as much as possible. If you feel that Charlene is associated with Gillian because they are in the same group, then there is a ‘Twins’ forum for you to discuss. If the majority of your discussion is about Gillian, then that is good, but any discussion about Charlene should be offered elsewhere.

Of course, if Charlene’s name is mentioned here and there because of ‘Twins’ or if it’s just one sentence, then it’s not a big deal. But any further discussions or comments about Charlene’s performances and works and complaints, criticisms, or sarcasm should be discussed elsewhere. For example, it’s inevitable to say that Gillian and Charlene appear at a function together or sing the same songs together, but posts that further dwell on Charlene’s performance, actions, or even criticisms should not be included in this forum. If you feel that it is wrong to post in the critics thread because you are a fan, then you are welcome to discuss in the Charlene thread but her flaws as well as comparisons need not be discussed here. Another thing is if the member have something to say against a post in the Charlene's thread, they should post in the Charlene thread and not in here. What is the point? cluebat.gif

In a way, perhaps one could think of it this way. It would not do justice for Gillian since this is solely her thread, to have to share the spotlight once again with Charlene (albeit through praises or criticisms about Char and however little) in her very own thread.

These threads should not only be filled with praises, but also discussions about Gill’s works, news, functions, and performances. And you are right, it is normal to fill the threads with praises of Gillian, but it is of my own opinion that I feel that some posts are overwhelming, especially when it includes comments on Charlene. For example, the discussions about Gillian’s role, Ching Ling So was interesting to read, but any comments about Charlene aren’t because they are overwhelming to me. However, that is just my opinion, and it does not mean other people will feel the same way.

Again, the part with the flaws had to do with a comment made by Alexa in the Charlene thread. If you feel a need to respond to that, you should respond there as it was brought up there.

I mean the whole paragraph quoting. You can quote of course, but it is suggested to narrow down the things to quote, as listed in the forum rules. It would be great if the quotes are narrowed so that more discussions can fill up on each page.

And I never did say that I don’t like this thread anymore. As much as I disagree with some viewpoints in this forum, I think Gillian is an awesome young actress and idol in her own right, and I am eager to learn more about her works and movies. clapping.gif I believe that a lot of other Charlene fans feel the same way even though they like Charlene more but feel that they are not welcome in this thread because Charlene is often seen in the negative light. Anyhow, past posts are past posts, so hopefully both threads will function with harmony in the future. cool.gif yeah.gif cool.gif

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ep-fowKUQCU&...Gillian%20Chung

This is a clip of which Gillian talks about her experiences and career in the ET industry.

Translation:

When I first came to work in the ET industry, well, I signed a contract, but I had no idea when I could actually become an artiste officially after signing the contract. I went through some training, a year of training. It was all part of waiting; during the time, I didn't exactly have much to do. Everyday was just basically learning, but at other times, it's as if I were doing nothing at all. The feeling is like I can't do anything to change that, so when I actually do receive jobs, I will try my best to grasp it. I would just hope that I will receive more chances to do more things.

The main reason of entering the ET industry for me is mainly wanting better living conditions for my family. I want them to be comfortable with themselves, so I do try my best to do my jobs properly. I am hoping that the people around me will take notice that I do give effort in the things I do, so they will give me more chances. I learn how to sing and how to dance because a person wouldn't know what kind of path he or she will be stepping onto in the future, so obviously you'd need to learn about various things. That way, when you actually come out into the light, you would be aware of what's going on. It's just a theory of how if you had no idea about anything, it's very easy for you to be eliminated.

Filming action scenes is laborious work, and it's easy to get hurt from it, but I think it's all part of your personal will. Just tell yourself that you can make it, you can pull it through. Even though you'll get hurt, just go to the doctor afterwards; it's not hard. The wounds will eventually heal. I am also able to learn many things each time I finish an action film. It may be because I used to take up running in school; while running, it's about the persistance. It's the moment of when you're near the finish line, you would start telling yourself that the finish line is coming, how you have to keep going, and just endure it for a bit more. The persistance is bound to be there. It's the same thing for an action film; as the scene is ending, just keep in mind that the action scene is almost finished, and if you're not able to complete this nicely, you'll have to do it all over again. Can you really do it all over again? I probably can't, so I will put more effort into it. I feel that the teenagers nowadays have many temptations around them. Perhaps their friends will be telling them to go hang out here and there, have fun before working, and there'll be plenty of time for work later. But for my personal view on this, I'd say there's also plenty of time for having fun afterwards; the serious matters should be dealt with first. Everyone is able to receive chances, but it just depends whether you're able to grasp them well enough or not.

True. You introduced an extremely good point. hug.gif I'm not going to join the anti-fans in the Critics section in threads that involve Twins because some people can be really ignorant and stubborn towards Twins. Occasionally, I would join in discussions that involve a real environment of ideas and opinions, not some short shout outs that Sa is ugly or Gillian is fake. There is no purpose of posting such long observations or critiques in those threads when anti-fans probably won't even care in the first place to read them nor answer to them but simply agreeing with statements like "Yeah, Charlene sucks, she's so annoying etc." As for the Sa thread, I think it would be awkward for me to enter discussing about Sa's flaws making other members feel uncomfortable. I mean, some Sa fans would feel interrogated to respond back and especially critiques from a Gillian fan is automatically labelled as biased, trying to make Gillian look better. I don't want Sa fans to disappear from that thread, feeling like I've interrupted their comfortable zone. I guess, the best thing would be, not to mention Sa as much anymore. And I think Bluehearts already explained why we choose to discuss here and not elsewhere is because even though Sa or Twins may pop up, the majority of information we're exchanging revolves around Gillian. As for the Gillian praises, there is absolutely no harm done so I don't see the urgent change. This thread will continue to discuss about Gillian whether they be praises, flaws, or just daily rambles and surely, Sa's name will be minimized but honestly, hopefully all members on this thread won't feel like we're always being surveillanced for errors because hm, incidences seem so. whistle.gif

Jadedreams27: About the quotes and our discussions, I think we're already doing a lot of discussion but the quotes are a guidance to all readers what the topic is about because viewers tend to catch the discussion at different points. But Thanks for clarifying things. You know, you're always welcomed here. sweat.gif

Anyway, continuing with our normal discussions:

Little_Purple_Bell: Thanks for translating; I haven't watched the clip yet. Gillian is one determined young lady. See, all Gillian wishes for are more opportunities but unfortunately, in Gillian's position, she's so limited and restricted. I say, since Gillian is already comfortable enough with bolder projects, there shouldn't be any reason left why Gillian is still stuck in that pure image. I loved the part when Gillian said that wounds will eventually heal; she's so cool. sweat.gif

Huge applaud to Gillian. After a month and her Mandarin solo: 今天星期几 (钟欣桐) still manages to stay on top at Baidu at 21st place while the rest of Twins songs have declined further down the list except for Around the World With 80 Dollars at 16th place. This totally calls for a group celebration. Wonder if Gillian knows how well her solo is being accepted? sweat.gif

Off topic rambling, the heat is killing me. I hate travelling in the hot weather. wacko.gif

Go Gillian~ yeah.gif

and i was also wondering if you guys know if she's planning on filming anything ? miss seeing her in movies and stuff. she's very talented in acting too and so adorable with edison and kenny and other actors too. even nicholas tse laugh.gif appreciate it if someone can answer. thank you
soiia
bebe_iNC is right, I miss Gillian in movies too, and I wonder what kind of movie she'll be acting in...we've seen her in romantic and cute one, action movie..and even thriller one blush.gif !

and I'd like to thank Little_Purple_Bell for translating the long text said by Gillian! I seriously find it really meaningful of Gillian to compare actions movie scenes to running because the logic is well made.

Looking up at some replies, I can see that there are still some minor problem between Sa's thread and Gillian's one...what can I say, I've once give out my opinion but some Sa's fan thought it was too offending...but I didn't even mention Sa's name in it wacko.gif but oh wel... and well as a Gillian Fan ( lmao.gif ) I must admit, it's pretty stupid of an excuse! Like Gill#1Fan had said, if they don't wanna come here so that's fine, but if they do, they should SERIOUSLY read everything we're writing here! It'S not because in one reply we said CHarlene sand louder than Gillian that the other had basically the same meaning! It is the same way about the comparision between Twins...I'm sure in this topic, there is no direct comparision since we can't judge anything, it depends on people's point of view. It's not because one personne said that Charlene is cuter that this is the thuth (which by the way, i'm not saying the opposite, just taking this as an exemple), so I don't get why Sa's topic will maybe 'occasionaly' made this kind of comparision...

I liek strawberries, so strawberries is the best fruit ever !! -- same kind of thing huh ? whistle.gif

Aiyayayaya, so now, Mani said Isabella can do as much as she wanted, as long as she is not nude. That means Isabella is actually living in the 21st century...as for Gillian, is Mani still thinking she's living in 1950?

(by the way, does anyone still have the clip with Gillian saying that she chose over Edison tongue.gif )

I was wondering what's going on with the whole ordeal with Andy Lau?
Does Gillian have a chance to star in a film with Andy or not?
I'm still anticipating on the live performance of Gillian and Kenny's duet. It's been so long already--all these wait is very agonizing.

It's amazing with what Gillian said. I'm glad she was able to express that. Hopefully, by her making a statment like that will make her company realize what they need to do and make some changes for Gillian because she deserve it. Her company probably doesn't even care at all. Knowing her company, they'll probably look one way and walk the other way-How Pathetic is that? I'm so happy for Gillian because she's become one heck of a strong lady and have progress from a girl to a woman. I say keep going and don't give up. Gillian knows what she's doing I have faith in her. worship.gif

Yes I was wondering too..the Andy and Gillian film. Did EEG put that into conderisation? I mean maybe they did discuss something about it and maybe it's going to be one of her film next year? Cause this year she only has one film not including 49 Days, so let's see if it's going to be a production in 2007 which isn't a long way...

I guess we are all waiting for Kenny and Gillian live performance...but I'm wondering did it actually happen? Or did the fan just make it up? Well hope it did happen

GO GILLIAN!
autumn_snow_genesis #23
i've not posted for quite some time now but i've covered up every post that i've missed out lately. i'm quite upset about all these nonsentical statements about where exactly our comments should ("must" for some others) be posted. It doesn't matter whether discussions about sa or gill or both Twins in general be placed. and by the way this is a GILLIAN thread where GILLIAN fans have a freedom of speech as long as it involves gillian. (everything in this world is linked or related,so there's no point in trying to draw borders between this and that )

in reality, there's not a single action/opinion that pleases everybody. sorry, it's not our fault that some people took our opinions into heart. (i know i've gotten off-topic, but sad to say it's the cruel fact of life)

getting back to gillian's topic (not 100% as some claimed it should be), i hope gillian's throat injury will heal soon. if i'm not mistaken, the filming of House of Fury which caused her injury was in late 2004? i find that before her injury,in the Twins-Magic album which was released around early 2004,in my opinion, her voice and singing standards are by far the best in her entire singing career. her voice was so solid and strong,especially when she used her deep tones. i'm not saying that her singing now is bad, but to me, something is lacking, but i don't know what. she still sounds wonderful, though, just not as solid as before. i like 'Double Lost Valentine' very much and i especially love Gillian's singing in that song.

people must be thinking that i'm really outdated because i only heard the songs in "Around the World with 80 Dollars" last week.i have some comments, though.(after thorough listening)

i don't really like the mandarin versions of 'Lifesaver' and 'One time Not Twice' because i'm just so used to the Cantonese versions that i find it rather uncomfortable listening to them in mandarin.

i 100% enjoy the rest of the songs. i like 'You are the Bravest' above all. i almost cried when gillian sang her verses (i am quite sentimental).i don't know why this song is so touching to me because i don't really understand the lyrics/what they are singing about (i know i'm mental saying that) i like 'I really want to Love Him' too, but i think that the song can reach higher levels. i find that it doesn't really test their vocals.anyway, gillian did such a good job. 'Transformation Party', 'Black Box', 'The Golden Swing' and 'Around the World in 80 Dollars' are good but all these Mandarin songs lack some really good rollercoasters.

i have a lot to say about sa's solo but i don't want to post them, even in the sa's thread(i don't want to offend some people). but i have to admit that the song is nice. about her singing, no comments HERE.

the best for last. GILLIAN'S SOLO. it's really a difficult song to sing and gillian did such a wonderful job (i wouldn't say it was perfect because first of all, the song wasn't that challenging on the vocals, so gillian can't show her full potential there) i don't find anything wrong with the 'Baddadapda..da..' part. it suits very well with the song. this song is soooo addictive (not only to me but also my elder brother who neither likes charlene or gillian or twins or other chinese artistes.he's more on the English side because like me, he doesn't understand chinese.in fact, he's a lot worst )

GO GILLIAN! SUPPORT YOU FOREVER!



jelly_bean
Newbie here, WOW!! you guy is so fast. i couldnt keep up!! But it seem like mainly problem we have here is Char's fan and Gill's fan attack each other. Well, if you want praise for Char, then go to Char's thread. If you want to praise for Gill, then come here. No need to come to other's peoples thread and start to talk sh*t.
Now, that is out.

Let get back to Gill. I don't think EEG will let her do movie with Andy, because some how they wont let her have kissing scence. C'mon, she is 25 for GOD SAKE, when do they going to let her kiss? when she is 35? They being really unfair for her. While Char can kiss whoever she want, Gillis forbid to do so. I bet if she did, they going to freeze Gill for sure.

I hate to said this, but some time i think Gill would do better in solo. At least, she got more oportunity to explore more.But, that just me ramble.

Hi everyone...

I just wanted to tap in and tell everyone how much i enjoy visiting this forum! i've been reading it everyday... and i havent really shared a lot, but i wanna say thanks for all the talks and news about Gill... i love her just like all of you do!

Seriously, this is the most dynamic and crazy forum i've ever seen... all the fighting about charlene and stuff, but thanks everyone for keeping cool and mature... im so sure Gill would be honored to know she has fans like u (especially asillysaint, little purple bell, and lil sleepyhead... haha i've noticed you three are the most outspoken Gillian fans..).

I'll try to share more often, but i know so little about Gill, i learn everything i know from reading what you write, and the more i learn, the more i appreciate who she is. I used to just like her because she was so cute and pretty, but you've all taught me she is so much more than that. She is mature, confident, caring, sweet, determined, and humble. Like all of you... i wish i could help her find more opportunities. Who knows... maybe someday one of us will be able to help her shine at her brightest.

Anyways... thanks everyone for keeping this forum HUGEMONGOUS! I love it... i'm so glad i discovered you all.

I brought the second verison of Around The World with 80 Dollars on Sunday, and I saw the DVD of the making of I Really Want to Love Him and the part where that guy kissed Gillian matched in the MV...they should took out Charlene crying part and put in the kissing part though it was a camera trick, but then it would match the MV even more cause after that he goes eating Charlene ice-cream..though the MV was done and it came out.

We really haven't heard any news on the supposed collaboration of Gillian and Andy; I just hope this request doesn't just fade out of the picture because of who knows what happened behind the scenes. dry.gif Either way, whether or not Gillian lands herself on a role in a film with Andy, I think 'Let's Steal Together' is going to be the only film for Gillian this year. After Gillian's hit with '49 Days', why would EEG let Gillian have another chance at shining again in the same year to deepen the good impression, in which a collaboration with Andy is a definite chance to shine for anyone, if Twins wasn't part of the deal as a whole? If anything at all for Gillian, it'd probably be at least next year; that is if she's given a chance or not.

I'm sure the Kenny+Gillian performance did happen. The fan couldn't have made it up because she's from Kenny's official fanclub, in which members actually know each other personally. There was no reason to lie either; no one expected the duet to be done, so when asked of which songs Kenny sang during Twins' concert, the fan wouldn't have said anything but the truth. She couldn't have lied either because there were other people there. One person may have lied, but other viewers would've protested to it if it were a fib.

I agree. Gillian's voice is very attracting. After a few times of listening to a solo song of hers, it's so easy to be addicted to it. The first impression of her solo wasn't that good for me, but I started getting addicted after a while.

Well, EEG said Gillian can kiss when she turns thirty. blink.gif That's so dumb though. Gillian should've been able to kiss on-screen way before the age she is now, twenty five. This restriction is really limiting her with her roles; it would be so stupid if the reason given for Gillian's rejection of the role is because she isn't allowed to kiss.

Sometimes I think Gillian would do better solo as well. Gillian just somehow gives her best performances while performing solo. It's a good thing that she's been given a few solo opportunities because it really has helped her notice what her flaws in singing are, and it led to her improvements, like how she is aware to stretch her ending notes out further and longer now instead of letting them go so soon as she used to. clapping.gif

Anyway, I can't wait to see the latest JSG! This episode of JSG is based on the FIFA World Cup with the singers singing songs in relation to the event, and they all dressed up in the jersey of the team that they supported, and they played games and competed as each of the two teams, France and Portugal. A fan from CCT mentioned that while Charlene was kicking the soccer ball, Gillian and Kenny were in the back goofing off with the scoreboard; they kept flipping the numbers sheets up, so their own team ended up 'winning 2 : 24'. loool.gif I heard it was really cute, so I want to see it! infatuated.gif Some fans also mentioned that Gillian and Charlene seemed to have been in some kind of dispute at the beginning, something about them not standing by each other and not even talking to each other; Gillian mostly hung around Yumiko while Charlene stood by Deep and Kenny. blink.gif Perhaps the fans were just a bit sensitive on that because another fan mentioned that Gillian and Charlene were talking to Wilfred Lau together in the end, and they stood by each other. sweat.gif

I just wanted to tap in and tell everyone how much i enjoy visiting this forum! i've been reading it everyday... and i havent really shared a lot, but i wanna say thanks for all the talks and news about Gill... i love her just like all of you do!

I'll try to share more often, but i know so little about Gill, i learn everything i know from reading what you write, and the more i learn, the more i appreciate who she is. I used to just like her because she was so cute and pretty, but you've all taught me she is so much more than that. She is mature, confident, caring, sweet, determined, and humble. Like all of you... i wish i could help her find more opportunities. Who knows... maybe someday one of us will be able to help her shine at her brightest.

Anyways... thanks everyone for keeping this forum HUGEMONGOUS! I love it... i'm so glad i discovered you all.

Ev

I'm glad you enjoy your stays here! hug.gif Do remember to speak out more often though; we'd love to see what you'd like to express about what we say here. There can never be too many discussions going on in a forum. It's great that we helped you learn more about Gillian, and it's great that we're able to find out more about her together!

We really haven't heard any news on the supposed collaboration of Gillian and Andy; I just hope this request doesn't just fade out of the picture because of who knows what happened behind the scenes. dry.gif Either way, whether or not Gillian lands herself on a role in a film with Andy, I think 'Let's Steal Together' is going to be the only film for Gillian this year. After Gillian's hit with '49 Days', why would EEG let Gillian have another chance at shining again in the same year to deepen the good impression, in which a collaboration with Andy is a definite chance to shine for anyone, if Twins wasn't part of the deal as a whole? If anything at all for Gillian, it'd probably be at least next year; that is if she's given a chance or not.

I'm sure the Kenny+Gillian performance did happen. The fan couldn't have made it up because she's from Kenny's official fanclub, in which members actually know each other personally. There was no reason to lie either; no one expected the duet to be done, so when asked of which songs Kenny sang during Twins' concert, the fan wouldn't have said anything but the truth. She couldn't have lied either because there were other people there. One person may have lied, but other viewers would've protested to it if it were a fib.



Well hope EEG did put that in their back of thier minds in they want to earn alot of $$$$. True, EEG wouldn't let Gillian have another shining spotlight.

Yeah true again, fans wouldn't lie to each other.

Yes I'm saving the pictures right now, and since my computer is slow it's going to take awhile to upload the pics. I don't think the Gillian+Charlene not talking is true. Because in the pics they were standing together. Gillian was standing next to Kenny,Don,Deep..etc (with boys only) and Charlene was standing next to Yumiko,Stephaine,Renee (girls only). Seem like Gill is with the boys and Charlene is with the girls. Which team were they on? Frace or Portugal? Since they was blue and the other team was yellow.

Aww that's soo cute! Gillian and Kenny changing their score to 24 right? Lol! Here's some pictures.

I don't think anything did happen, or if it did, it should be alright now. Some fans just got the impression that they didn't stick by each other very often during that function, and some claim that Gillian looked a little upset here and there, but Gillian did go over to start talking with Charlene near the end; they were fine towards the end of the function. So no worries needed. I just want to see this for myself and confirm whether it's just the fans being sensitive about things since we do know the obsession of CCT with Twins having to stick together 24/7, or if there was some tension among them.
