keep it up Jill~Lols xD I LOVE De Ra Go xD ... It's Spanish? It ... doesn't sound like it o.o Or maybe I'm just THAT bad in Spanish [and to think I've taken Spanish for two years ... pretty sad to think about this]
I love her new album ... I wish I can buy it though - I've only heard previews from the internet x.x;;
Lol I think her new album isn't that good.
Just listened to "Cocoa" yesterday and I didn't like it.
Maybe I'll try "De Ra Go" later.

Probably the worst thing about her new album [to me anyway] is that it only has 5 tracks ... I hate those short albums that rip you off crazily.
I just checked the lyrics for De Ra Go on musicfever.org and heck yeah, it's Spanish [LOLS] ...
I actually liked Cocoa though; at least I understand the Spanish in this one

I have downloaded a few songs of hers recently. At the moment I have Funny Jealousy, 可可, Get Out and Lonely.
Most of her songs contain english but I like it. Lonely is mostly all in english but I think it's okay. I think I'm beginning to like Jill a but more than Janice in singing but I still Janice!
So with that film. It's looks a bit like a horror or something
I'm confused about it. Someone help me out please

Thankx

I really like her Ep more than her album. I like how her Ep is more of a spanish/latin feel, I hope her next album would have more genres like that. It's great that her songs aren't the usual canto pop songs, I hope she continues to bring something new to the music industry.
Here are some pictures of Jill and some are with Janice too!

i think jill should have signed with the korean company instead ..
i think she would have been more popular there since koreans are into that hip hop style and jill fits in perfectly lols

shortyx33 I agree. They do like her sort of style more! But, she could still release a korean album. I heard Janice might be so Jill has a chance too! It's nice to hear different music to the type everyone else sings though. Hope she gets as far as Janice has in the short amount of time. But because she has a different style, not many may like it people or listen to it.
I liked the wings that she wore when she performed at Janice's concert. Jill is awesome!
I think she would have a chance in the Korean market too.
Jill is awesome!I think she would have a chance in the Korean market too.
i am a jill fan too! i like her better than janice! she appeared so sexy in janice's concert, shes so confident. hope she can hold her own concert soon!!
^^ Those pictures that she have the wings on, she doesnt look pretty at all. no offend.
Well, HK artists do wear weird costumes at concerts!

Jill Vidal Reveals her Crush on Edison Chen
Jill Vidal, who was interviewed on radio earlier, was asked to describe her dream lover. When hearing this, Jill immediately began praising Edison Chen by calling him handsome and cute. But as Edison already has a girlfriend, Vincy Yeung, Jill disclosed that she will not express her likings for him.
Despite being rumoured to be dating Kelvin Kwan, Jill did not hesitate to reveal her crush on Edison. She commented, "I like Edison. He is really cute!" Jill and Edison are under the same company and because of this, Jill met Edison at a celebration party earlier. Jill said, "I know he has a girlfriend, so I won't tell him... I will not pursue him because he has a girlfriend." Jill then expressed that she does not know who his girlfriend is and does not know who she is the daughter of.
When asked if she will now be embarrassed if she sees Edison, Jill laughed and replied, "I hope he doesn't listen to this interview. I'm not sure.... I'm really nervous! (Did you have a crush on him before you bumped into him?) I thought he was cute, just like a lot of other females."
Jill then revealed that her sister, Janice, also likes Edison. As both Jill and Edison perform the same genre of music, Jill was questioned if she hopes for a chance to work with him. She answered, "We both work on R&B and Hip Hop music, so I certainly hope for a chance to work with him. But I do not know if he wants to."

Miriam + Jill Support Edison After his Conduct Warning
Miriam Yeung, when hearing that Edison Chen has been ordered to be careful about his behavior and fined after kicking a taxi, could not stop laughing. She then advised Edison to drink 'cooling tea' (涼茶) to cool himself down. As for Jill, who has publicly announced her crush on him, expressed that this incident has not affected Edison's perfect image in her heart.
Bad tempered Edison, was frustrated after being told to 'eat poo' and so, kicked a taxi. After trial on Friday, Edison was told by the judge that his behavior will be monitored and was also fined HK$1000. Miriam, who can be loosely classified as Edison's colleague, could not stop laughing when hearing about the incident at an event yesterday. Knowing that she had laughed too much, Miriam explained, "Sorry, but I do find this quite hilarious! Being so bad tempered, I think Edison should tell his assistant to make him some cooling tea. I have recently had dinner with him and he was fine. Maybe because he has been stressed lately after becoming a CEO. Of course, anyone would be angered if they were told to 'eat poo'. Although I would not have used any physical conduct, I would still have been very angry. But I have good self control, I would find some friends to let it out. I definitely would not do it in front of the person that offended me. Edison is a very straight forward person and being a child, he still has to develop his self control. This is a good chance for him to learn from."
Jill then supported Edison by saying, "It does not really matter, what he did was not bad. This will not change the way I see him. I like his music and our music genre is similar. This is why I admire him! (Will you call him?) I do not have his number and I am not familiar with him."

Jill Vidal Admits to Hair Loss Problem
Jill Vidal yesterday attended an event and was seen to be suffering from a hair loss problem. When asked about this issue, Jill admitted to being bothered by the problem, Jill commented, "Yes I am very worried, this has never happened before. Earlier, for the concert, I was constantly dying my hair. So my doctor has advised me to relax, sleep before 12pm, sleep earlier and wake up earlier, don't take any medication."
The singer then disclosed that because she is busy working with her album, that will be released in the summer holidays, she has not requested for a break from her company. Jill believes that there is no need to wear wigs at the moment but when asked if she had considered cutting her hair shorter, Jill immediately replied, "No way," when she saw Charles Ying shake his head in disapproval.

Jill as Guest @ Sammi's Concert
Jill was the guest on the 6th night of Sammi Cheng's Show Mi 2007 Concert. When Sammi invited Jill onstage, she didn't forget to hard-sell her concert T-shirt souvenir. Sammi said, "Each night a guest will wear it. The sales from my souvenirs will be donated. Everyone please support!" Afterwards she said to Jill, "Your skin is very good in person!" Jill said, "Yours too!" Sammi said, "I use SKII. Talking for so long, I want to praise the product I'm a spokesperson for!" Jill said she really likes her songs. Sammi said, "I know, because you want to cover 唉聲嘆氣 (Sighing) but the company has to follow procedures then it's possible!" After Sammi and Jill sang 問我 (Ask Me) together, Sammi went offstage. Jill continued to sing her House version of 傻女 (Silly Girl).

Jill Vidal Reveals Severity of Hair Loss Problem
Jill Vidal, Stephanie Cheng, Kenny Bee, Louis Cheng and Charles Ying performed at an event promoting healthy environment. Jill, who earlier disclosed that her hair loss problem was due stress, revealed the severity of the problem when a gust of wind blew her hair while she performed. Jill then expressed that she has stopped her dog from going into her room because of her asthma.
On the other hand, in consequence to dancing in stilettos to perform her new song '大女仔', Stephanie has shifted the position of her pelvis bone. She commented, "It was painful that I lost feeling in the that area. I'm very unhappy! But I can't do much about it now, hopefully my next plug song is a slow song."

Janice & Jill Vidal's Sell Out Macau Concert
Twin sisters, Janice and Jill Vidal held their ‘Janice and Jill Vidal Our First Macau Concert’ on Saturday night. The concert was a sell out as all the seats at the 4000 seat venue was filled. This concert is quite similar to Janice’s Hong Kong concerts but this time, Jill was able to perform more songs. In contrast to her sexy and revealing dress at the previous concert, Jill’s costumes for this concert were more conservative. Arrangements for dancers also differed as their management company thrived to bring a fresh feel to the Macau concert.
The sisters have received great feedback from the Macau crowd this time. Despite the two having a slight accent when speaking Cantonese, the audience roared with responses throughout the show. When Janice and Jill asked the crowd for some sight seeing tips, people immediately yelled out suggestions and advised the two to try some pork buns.

Jill Vidal has lost 15 pound in weight
Picture: Jill has lost weight
Jill Vidal was promoting her new album the other day. She was wearing a very sexy outfit showing her shoulders and long legs in her promotion. Jill has just finished a new full-length album called Jillympics, which was released on the same day as the opening ceremony of Beijing Olympic 2008. That is why the album is called Jillympics.
Picture: Jill's new album
Jill has been on a diet and keeping fit. She has successfully lost 15 pounds in weight. Now she can afford to wear sexy clothes. She revealed when she was fat, she felt sick. Jill has been going to the gym twice a week. She also goes jogging to keep fit. Jill finds it difficult to get rid of the fat in her upper arm. Even though Jill has lost weight, her chest is fine. She would not want to have plastic surgery for beast enlargement though.
Asked if Leon noticed her changes, Jill said "he and the others said the photos are good. Everybody is happy. (Does Janice envy you?) No, she is busy try to lose weight too. We have our meals at home and we don't eat a lot of snacks. I know how to control myself. I don't need dieting."

‘Troublesome lovebird’ Kelvin Kwan and Jill Vidal were arrested in Japan with the possession of Marijuana, and was locked up. The both of them were once ambassadors asking youth not to take drugs, but were caught with possessions of drugs, and they were found to be staying in the same room, too much lies, no wonder everyone was disappointed and heartbroken.
Rumored couple, Kelvin and Jill, was touring at Japan Shibuya last Tuesday, when they were involved with the buying and possession of Marijuana, and were arrested by the police on the spot; this incident shocked the whole entertainment circle! According to Japan media, it turned out that the two of them planned to stay in Japan from 20th February to 27th February, and the two of them was spotted staying in the same room at some hotel, and was caught dating in Shibuya! Jill and Kelvin had been caught secretly dating a few times, and they weren’t afraid of gossips and turned up at function in a ‘couple’ way, but they claimed that they were good friends, but their lies were exposed because of this incident, and it was proven that they were a couple, and even progressed until the stage of staying in the same room, proving that their relationship isn’t that simple!
Talked big when asking people to avoid drugs, but disappointed people by being in possession of drugs
Frankly, Kelvin had always gave people the feel of being healthy, active and trendy, after joining the entertainment circle, he took part in a lot of charity activities, and also participated in the Eastern District "Say No to Drug" Fight Crime function. Kelvin and Jill sang on the <North District Fighting Crime> function in 2006 and 2008 respectively, and promoted the message of not touching drugs, Kelvin also said that taking drugs is not good, and Jill asked everyone not to be affected by bad friends and not to take drugs, thus when the both of them were caught with possession of drugs in Japan, other than having trouble, the public also think that these 2 young idols talk big, say one thing and did another thing! No wonder Kelvin’s senior, Alan Tam, and Jill’s boss, Leon Lai, are both heartbroken and disappointed.
Other than that, Kelvin had went to Japan for holiday a few times, and was praising the country. We (This newspaper) found on Kelvin’s blog, that during Chinese New Year last year, Kelvin and his good friend, Ivan Wang, went for a massive shopping trip in Japan, and praised that Ivan was an encyclopaedia for Japan. Kelvin also disclosed that although he had been to Japan a few times, he don’t feel that it’s boring, but rather attractive, no wonder he kept going back.

The both of them were once ambassadors asking youth not to take drugs, but were caught with possessions of drugs, and they were found to be staying in the same room, too much lies, no wonder everyone was disappointed and heartbroken.
Rumored couple, Kelvin and Jill, was touring at Japan Shibuya last Tuesday, when they were involved with the buying and possession of Marijuana, and were arrested by the police on the spot; this incident shocked the whole entertainment circle! According to Japan media, it turned out that the two of them planned to stay in Japan from 20th February to 27th February, and the two of them was spotted staying in the same room at some hotel, and was caught dating in Shibuya! Jill and Kelvin had been caught secretly dating a few times, and they weren’t afraid of gossips and turned up at function in a ‘couple’ way, but they claimed that they were good friends, but their lies were exposed because of this incident, and it was proven that they were a couple, and even progressed until the stage of staying in the same room, proving that their relationship isn’t that simple!
Talked big when asking people to avoid drugs, but disappointed people by being in possession of drugs
Frankly, Kelvin had always gave people the feel of being healthy, active and trendy, after joining the entertainment circle, he took part in a lot of charity activities, and also participated in the Eastern District "Say No to Drug" Fight Crime function. Kelvin and Jill sang on the <North District Fighting Crime> function in 2006 and 2008 respectively, and promoted the message of not touching drugs, Kelvin also said that taking drugs is not good, and Jill asked everyone not to be affected by bad friends and not to take drugs, thus when the both of them were caught with possession of drugs in Japan, other than having trouble, the public also think that these 2 young idols talk big, say one thing and did another thing! No wonder Kelvin’s senior, Alan Tam, and Jill’s boss, Leon Lai, are both heartbroken and disappointed.
Other than that, Kelvin had went to Japan for holiday a few times, and was praising the country. We (This newspaper) found on Kelvin’s blog, that during Chinese New Year last year, Kelvin and his good friend, Ivan Wang, went for a massive shopping trip in Japan, and praised that Ivan was an encyclopaedia for Japan. Kelvin also disclosed that although he had been to Japan a few times, he don’t feel that it’s boring, but rather attractive, no wonder he kept going back.

The drug related arrest of Kelvin Kwan and Jill Vidal in Japan has raised the attention of Hong Kong society. The two were arrested on February 24, and are currently still being held in custody. Jill’s record company, A-Music, have started to take action yesterday. Boss Leon Lai, has sent representatives and lawyers to Japan to “rescue” Jill. Meanwhile, Jill’s twin sister, Janice Vidal, also appeared looking tired and worn out.
Yesterday morning, Leon met with Janice and her family behind closed doors. They discussed Jill’s current situation and future work arrangements. A-Music will hold a press conference today to discuss the situation. Leon has already sent manager Chan Sin Chi and a lawyer last night to Japan to “rescue” Jill.
A-Music Orders Artists to Not Discuss the Matter
Since the matter is currently in the midst the Japanese judicial process, Leon has informed his artists that it was not suitable to publicly discuss the matter. When Janice was surrounded by reporters yesterday, she appeared tired and from her puffy eyes, it appeared that she has been crying.
Universal Record Company Executive Duncan Wong
Duncan Wong, an executive at Kelvin’s record company, Unviersal, accepted an interview with CRHK yesterday. He revealed that he received a call from Kelvin’s father on Monday to inform him of Kelvin and Jill’s arrest in Japan. His first reaction was one of “sadness and disappointment.” Duncan supported Kelvin and said that he has always had a healthy image. However, this time, it is the truth that he made a mistake. “He definitely did not steal, but the possession of marijuana is true. He already admitted to it.” According to the legal procedure, Kelvin will be released next week the earliest. He believes that the incident will definitely affect Kelvin’s career development.
Peter Lam: If Jill Did Take Drugs, will Definitely Terminate Her Contract
As for the other artist involved in the incident, Jill, there has yet to be evidence that she possessed or had taken marijuana. The boss of East Asia Entertainment (Jill’s company), Peter Lam expressed that his company is still investigating the matter. However, he made it clear that they will not tolerate this type of behavior. If it is true that Jill has taken drugs, her contract will definitely be terminated. “If an individual is caught, he/she should receive punishment.” He said, if this incident really did happen, it would affect the entire industry and the singers. The company would have lost an artist, but the loss to the artist taking drugs is even bigger, “The loss of the artist would be bigger than anyone else, ruining his/her career and future.”
Miriam Yeung: Society’s Educational Material
Miriam Yeung, who is in the same record company as Jill, said, “Leon has already personally called me to explain the situation to me, and we have a mutual understanding that we won’t offer our public commentary.” Miriam expressed that people should not do things to harm their health, and the most important thing is that the young have learned and understood their lesson. “This incident has given society educational material. Currently, there are situations of drug abuse in middle and elementary schools.” When asked about Jill and Kelvin having served as anti-drug ambassadors, Miriam expressed to not mix the two things together. Asked if she felt that the younger singers do not treasure their opportunities and do not respect themselves? Miriam expressed that she will not comment, “While I’m in the same company as Jill, I don’t really know her. But I remember her to be a very punctual and hard working individual.”
Hacken Lee feels Hurt
Hacken Lee admitted to be half of an elder to Kelvin and has known him for 20 years. He watched Kelvin grow up. Hacken said, “When I first learned of the incident, I didn’t dare believe it to be true, and I felt that it was a pity. I don’t feel that Kelvin is this type of person. If it is true, his parents will be the ones that are hurt the most. As Kelvin’s elder, I feel hurt as well. I just hope now that both will come back to Hong Kong safely. Andy Hui feels that the situation not only affects the two of them, but affects people who like them as well. “Every move and action of artists will draw the attention and following of fans. I hope that people will not let this incident affect their image of other artists. People who think will not feel that because of this incident Hong Kong artists are not good and will set a bad example for the next generation.”
William Chan: Surprised that Kelvin is Involved
William Chan and Kelvin go to the same gym and so are rather familiar with each other. William said, “My perception of Kelvin, is that he does not drink or smoke. So when I heard this news, I was shocked. Originally, I wanted to call him but was scared that he’s waiting for more important calls. I won’t send him a SMS either.” While studying in Canada, Jade Kwan witnessed her classmates smoking marijuana and were even arrested. She said that she won’t do it, “There is a big price to pay for taking drugs. A lot of the youth believe that it is cool to do so, but I feel that not doing drugs is the coolest.”

Pop Singers Kelvin Kwan and Wei Si Held for Drugs in Japan
Hong Kong singing idols Kelvin Kwan Chor-yiu and Wei Si have been arrested in Tokyo for the alleged possession of marijuana.
The Cantopop couple were still being held by Japanese authorities last night, eight days after their arrest in the city's trendy Shibuya nightclub district.
Kwan and Wei Si have both taken part in government-backed anti-drug campaigns and their arrests - which were only made public yesterday - have reignited concerns over teenage drug abuse at a time when the government is trying to stamp it out.
Kwan's godfather, singer Alan Tam Wing-lung, and Wei Si's boss, singer/ actor Leon Lai Ming, said they are deeply disappointed over the report, and are checking the truth of the allegations.
According to reports in Japan, the couple entered the country on February 20 as tourists and were arrested around 1am on February 24.
Kwan and Wei Si - who is also known as Jill Vidal - are alleged to have been arguing with a shopkeeper in a 24-hour store when police were called. Marijuana was allegedly found in a cigarette they were carrying.
In an interview with police, Canadian citizen Kwan, 25, reportedly admitted the drug had been given to him by a friend in Hong Kong. Wei Si, 26, a British citizen, said she did not know it was marijuana.
Kwan's record company, Go East Entertainment, said Kwan has not been charged. His mother has flown to Japan.
Tam, president of the Hong Kong Performing Artistes Guild, said he would be very disappointed and heartbroken if the accusations are true.
"I would not tolerate such behavior, even though he's my godson. I will treat this matter in a strict and serious manner. It has affected the public's view of Hong Kong artistes," Tam said.
Lai, who is in charge of Wei Si's record company Amusic, said his company would not tolerate the possession of drugs. He said many youngsters imitate their idols and this incident could affect them.
A police spokesman in Hong Kong said they had heard nothing from the Japanese authorities. Kwan and Wei Si attended an anti-drug and crime campaign event in North District last November.
Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups supervisor Gary Tang Leung- shun said the allegations are regrettable, especially as concerns have been raised over drug abuse amongst youngsters.
Committee on Home-School Co- operation chairman Wong Po-choi said youngsters should not blindly follow their idols.
In 2007 a local gossip magazine reported two female singers often ordered drugs to be delivered to their homes. The identities of the singers were not disclosed. Many female celebrities denied involvement.
Under Japanese law, the importation of cannabis is punishable by a jail term of up to five years and/or a fine of up to 30 million yen (HK$2.4 million).
The penalty for possession of small amounts for personal use is punishable by a jail term of up to five years.

Jill Vidal and Kelvin Kwan will be in Detention for 2 weeks
February 24th of last week, Jill Vidal and Kelvin Kwan were caught possessing illegal drugs in Japan and were arrested. The two are currently in detention rooms in Tokyo's police station, Jill's manager made a special accommodation to go see Jill. Speaking to each other was prohibited, but Jill called her manager by his english name and may possibly be punished for that! There is news that revealed Jill and Kelvin will have to stay in Tokyo for another two weeks before returning to Hong Kong!
Although, Jill and her boyfriend Kelvin were arrested in Shibuya, but because the detention center there was full, so they were transferred to the detention center in the largest city in Japan, Tokyo. Each suspect can only bring three sets of clothing along with them and will be going to court the following day.
Besides their lawyer, they are not allowed to see anyone. The last few days, the two were trapped in their own independent rooms "facing the wall". As for Jill's manager, Joe Chan went to Tokyo and had special accommodations to see Jill, but during the time they were not allowed to speak, but when Jill came out with her "prisoner's outfit", wearing a one piece grey shirt, white socks and sandals, she accidentally shouted loudly of her manager's english name Joe, she surprisingly shouted: "Joe!" and was immediately stopped by the Police. Jill may be penalized for her violation.
Yesterday, Media chased after another case
Before there were rumors that the two will only be in detention for 15 days, but because Saturday is not a working day, it was calculated that the two will be detained on the 11th. As for another rumor, because the two were involved in possessing marijuana, so the time spent in detention has extended to 21 days, but according to a reliable source, it is believe that the two could come back to Hong Kong on the 14th. Yesterday reporters were waiting outside of the Tokyo detention center and waited until the business hours ended, but did not see two important "important figures" in sight, it is believed that Jill and Kelvin are still in detention. Although Tokyo's weather has been cold and rainy, but it still attracted many of the Hong Kong and local media to come watch. Turns out that the Japanese Media wanted to take pictures of other suspects on another case.
Because many Japanese police officers discovered recently that many local students are using marijuana, therefore Jill and Kevin possessing the same drugs have been quite nervous about it. But both of them expressed that the drugs were from Hong Kong and taken into Japan, more investigation will be taken. After investigation finishes, the Japanese police will contact their lawyers, if it is necessary for them to be bailed out, the two will have to pay the bailing fee, also they will probably have to stay in Japan for at least 2 months. They are required to report to Police in court to give evidence and if there is no real sentence for the two, they will be deported.
Promised before to work hard during New Years
Jill and her older sister Janice Vidal were filming a clip together to send New Year greets to their fans in January of this year. They also posted messages on their own personal websites, as for Jill, under the name of "Fighting" expressed that in the year of the Ox, she will work hard on her career, she even revealed a black bra and made many silly faces.
Also, reporters contacted Joe yesterday and he said that in the near future he will not be visiting Jill. He has not received any news from the lawyer on how the situation is and also does not know when Jill will be able to come back to Hong Kong, the most recent news is that he returned to Hong Kong this morning. As for Kelvin, the Vice President of Universal Music expressed: "There isn't any new development yet, I don't know when Kelvin will be returning."

Jill Vidal and boyfriend Kelvin Kwan were arrested in Japan last month for possessing Marijuana. Tomorrow (the 16th), the case will finally end with a decision, but yesterday the two's record company expressed that they received their urine reports and it was confirmed that the two did not only have Marijuana, but also something else.
Yesterday marks the 20th day that "Kwan Jill" were in detention. Last night, representative of Jill's record company Amusic, Ms. Sum suddenly announced to Reporters Jill's most recent development in Japan: "Just received the urine report from Japan and it said that besides having marijuana, Jill also had other stuff, the details will have be released tomorrow in court. ("other stuff", which is what?) Will have to wait for the report to come out first, it will be announced on Monday." Earlier AMusic terminated Jill's contract with them because she was involved with illegal drugs, Ms. Sum said: "Everything will have to wait until Monday when we discuss the report with the lawyer."
Afterwards, Reporters contacted Ms. Sum by phone, asked if Jill's contract with AMusic will be terminated? She said: "At this time, a decision has not been made, nor have this question been discussed. When Monday comes and we receive the report from the lawyer, a decision will be made. (Does Jill owe Amusic any money?) No, Jill had filmed commercials and her albums had been successful, she does not owe Amusic anything. (If the contract is terminated, will there be any fees she has to pay?) Will have to discuss this with the lawyer."
As for Kelvin Kwan who is apart of Universal Music, the Vice President Mr. Wong expressed that they have not any notice from his parents, and also defended Kelvin: "I really don't know, still haven't received notice from Kelvin's parents. (Will you call them to ask?) Not yet, his family is going through a tough time." 5 minutes later, Mr. Wong called Reporters and said: "Kelvin wants his father to confirm that he received the report from Japan, ha! It is as what you told me earlier (the urine report), it confirms that Kelvin did not only have marijuana in his body and that is all I know. "
(And all other questions asked to the VP, he answered that he didn't know.)
Also, last night at 8pm, Jill's older sister Janice just finished recording for JSG. When she left, the media surrounded her and asked if about Jill's results from the urine test. Janice only revealed a very painful look, as she left to go home.

Since Jill Vidal's arrest for marijuana in Japan, she has been in detained for 42 days. Japanese Police found Heroin in her luggage and now is currently under investigation. It is believed that she will have to spend her 27th birthday on April 13th in Japan.
Yesterday, it was reported that Japanese police found Heroin in her luggage at the hotel she stayed in. Japanese police requested Hong Kong police to investigate Jill's background. As understood, Japanese police found 10 small packages of Heroin in her luggage, but the Japanese Police only informed Hong Kong police that they "arrested Jill". However, up until this day, they have not requested Hong Kong police to provide any kind of assistance. Police Official replied to the incident yesterday and described the issue: "Hong Kong police will follow with the development of the case."
Informed Hong Kong Police "Arrested Jill"
Amusic representative Ms. Sum was asked about the case that Jill had possession of heroin, is it the truth? She reveals that yesterday she contacted the Japanese representative lawyer, currently anything related to Jill's case should not be disclosed because the Japanese has not released any specific information. Also, Amusic has not receive any requests of the police wanting assistance on the investigation.
Earlier Jill's father and manager visited Jill in Japan, asked how the situation is like now? Ms. Sum said: "According to the Japanese representative lawyer, he expressed that on April 25th, it is Japan's national holiday and if there is any new information, it will have to wait until after the holiday. "
Spending 27th Birthday in Detention
The Japanese representative lawyer expressed that Jill's case is more severe than Kelvin Kwan's case. Originally it was estimated that Jill will only have to say for another half month and then return to Hong Kong to celebrate her 27th birthday, but from the looks of the situation now, it is not possible. She will have to "sit in prison for the full 60 days". As for older sister Janice Vidal, she is also in Hong Kong celebrating her birthday alone. Already been a week since Kelvin's return to Hong Kong, he has not stepped out his house for a few days, he also "lost his freedom".
Janice's eyes swollen
Yesterday, Janice often goes to recording studio at 4pm, although she had make-up on, but it was still hard to hide. Asked if she knows about her sister possessing more illegal drugs? Does she understand her sister's situation? How does Janice feel now? Janice calmly replied: "I'm sorry". After she finished recording, when she was leaving the studio, it was seen that her eyes were red swollen, as if she cried. Was it because of the song she was recording? Or is it because of her sister's situation that she is too worried about?

10 packs???
Is she insane??
What was she going to do? Sell it?
Wow she deserves whatever punishment there is.
I mean why would someone be so senseless to smuggle them internationally.

Singer Jill Vidal has been charged with the possession of illicit drugs and was given a 2 year suspended sentence plus a 3 year probation period. Jill admits to bringing 16 packets of heroin to Japan and in the past year has taken the drug over a hundred times.
Jill, who has been detained for 2 months already, has been charged with violating Japan's “Narcotics and Psychotropic Control Laws” and as a consequence, the case trial was held today. Jill traveled to the hearing in a police van at approximately 8am today and it began at 1.30pm local time. She could not stop crying inside the trial and was constantly looking at her father who traveled to Japan from Hong Kong just to attend this trial while she was crying.
The prosecutor stated that while Jill was staying at the Shinjuku Washington Hotel, 11 packets of heroin weighing 1.836 grams were found in her possession.
Jill admits to bringing 16 packets of heroin to Japan from Hong Kong and bought the drugs in Hong Kong by making a payment via ATM and then receiving the goods. She also admits that in the past year she has taken the drug over 100 times and explained that this was caused by pressure from her job and the negative reports from the media making her feel unhappy about life hence initiating her drug addiction.
Jill admits to the prosecutions while shedding tears in the trial. She apologises publicly during the trial emphasising that she’s sorry to all her friends, all the people in Hong Kong and all the people in Japan. Jill also expressed that the past 2 months was a horrifying experience and does not hope for this event to happen again. In addition she pointed out that she has cleared her drug addiction while she was detained and will stay far away from the drug. The judge expressed that they believed Jill does show signs of regret and made a request for Jill and her family to promise that she will never take drugs again. In the end she was sentenced to 2 years in jail with a 3 year suspension period and the hearing ended up taking 1 hour and 20 minutes.
