He's the leading male role in La Robe De Mariee Des Cieux, it is also his first TV drama. He's with mixed blood of English, German, Japanese and Chinese. That's probably why he's cute. Anyways what would you rate him and what do you think of his acting skills?

he's a hottie...i think he did fine in La Robe. he and Cyndi have chemistry which is crucial for me liking an idol drama.

[earthgurl]

well i am not a fan of him...i think his acting skills arent dat good...well compared to the other male character..all i could remember of him from dat show was his smile....i thnk he can advertise for some toothpaste company..hey no offence!!!

Quote

?????? Then who's Li Wei Lian????????? CONFUSED??????????

Li Wei Lian is Leon Jay Williams.. both names are the same person, Li wei lian is the chinese name, leon jay williams is his english name.

BTW.. his acting in tian guo de jia yi wasn't as good as ming dao's I have to admit.. maybe he is lack the experience.. but nyeh.. his mandarin chinese doesnt sound native.. but well he's good enough.. his english is really good too..

[xosugarcrushox]

that's because he has more experience speaking in cantonese... i think he released his own cd..? but i couldn't find the songs anywhere..but if you look on yesasia you'll find it.. they're english songs. he's a model so La Robe de Mariage des Cieux was his first time acting. although his chinese wasn't great..i think he was a strong character but yea i like ming dao more, he's sexy.

[cookiemonster]

I think he's kinda cute.....kinda looks like Daniel Wu but older. It's funny that both of them have the same speaking problem. I wonder how he sounds like in cantonese.

[earthgurl]

if i am not mistaken i think he had a cameo in the hk movie, Driving Miss Wealthy. I think he did speak a little cantonese. He appeared at the job interview place when Lau Ching Wan had gone to applied for the job...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Agree that he did pretty well. He has potential and charisma. Hope he has a bright future in the entertainment career.

[JKH]

I've only ever seen pictures of him and one music video. He's so handsome! To me, he looked like Methos in the Highlander tv show (and I like him, too). Also, his english is good and his singing isn't bad either.
I really hope that I can see him in La Robe de Mariee Des Cieux!

[starrynitx2]

i think he is HOT!!! his lips remind me of daniel wu's who is also very HOT!!!...lol...um..does anyone know how old he is?

Hi smilanny,

Thanks for your update. I think you're the only one here who has lots of news referring to this series. So, how abt open a new thread for it at the Taiwanese Entertainment ? Then we can discuss more while waiting for it to come out

[dreamstar]

weird.. i dont see kido n weiru in the pics..
their name is in the characters..
and jiayu is the one with brown hair is it??? =O
looks like they're trying to orbit jiayu n kewei these days..

[littlemay]

He's very cute looking and pose very well, but he has a long way to go (imho). I think he too stiff as an actor. While Ming dao was very comfortable in his role as hui nao.... Leon was okay only 50% of the time...

[kitnlk325]

He is absolutely stunning! Mind me showing a few of his cutie pics here...

I fall for him after i saw one of his music video - Cant Smile Without You. He's so handsome and sexy! And he sings really well too! [url="http://spaces.msn.com/members/teextranochiquito/PersonalSpace.aspx?_c01_photoalbum=showdefault&_c=photoalbum"]Leon Jay Williams' Photos[/url]

[babiexd]

I love him from Le Robe De Mariage Des Ciuex. I think he's handsome and have the potential to be a good actor. ^^

[evelyim]

i think he's hot too. Is there like a profile of him? i'm currently watching Le Robe De Mariage Des Cieux on tv. does anyone know where i can purchase the dvd set online? I tried yesasia.com but they dont' have it. and there's this other site called fushionbeat.com but it's located in malaysia so i don't really trust their stuff and it's pretty far from the US.

[aggiesbaby]

Wei Lian's chinese has improved so much since Le Robe days. I've been watching him on WQYL and he's SOOO funny now! He doesn't go back and forth between English and Chinese now =). He looks really good in suits and I can't wait to see him in Green Forest, My Home!! He and Yan Yan match pretty well! He's WQYL's new 'Prince!'

[KyoSa]

I never noticed Leon Jay Williams until now. I watched the preview of Green Forres, My Home and I really want to watch this series. He looks mature and hot. Not bad on acting. Hope he'll film more series.

[smilanny]

i've watched Leon on WQYL and he's quite funny and talkative! his Chinese not that bad lol i'm not fluent in Mandarin but i can understand.
i'm downloading the 1st ep of Green Forest, My Home right now... can't wait to watch it!

[aggiesbaby]

yep..Leon's Chinese is pretty damn good granted he's mixed! a year and a half ago, i had to rely on the subs during Le Robe, but now i can totally understand him without assistance! episode 2 this weekend!!

[serenityendy]

ummm.....it stated that he is a singaporean.....but his english sound like american english

did he grow up in america or singapore?

if he grow up in america, how does he know malay? as far as i know, most singaporean do not know malay that well

if he grow up in singapore, where does the america accent come from?

blur....

do you guys think that maybe a look a little bit like wang lee hom younger version?

If i am not wrong he grew up in Singapore. But accents can be picked but anywhere, u need not be in the coutry to accquire that accent. He could have just picked it up from his enviroment etc.

[reflections]

wow you can't really tell that he has so much mixed blood in him...does anyone know if it is 1/4 of each..or just very little other german, japanese, and english blood?

i found that someitmes his english is great..and at other times it sounds sort of halting..at least fromt he first episode

[d_c1135]

I just watched Kang Xi Lai Le(康熙来了) and LeonJW and YanYan were in it.
If any one is still curious about his accent, he said that he grew up in Singapore and had the Singlish habit of speaking but then he had gone to Thailand and other countries to do modelling stints and got to mix around with alot of Americans there and got this American accent there.

LOL. I would not know that. But he speaks Malay (apprently) maybe he took malay in school and not chinese? (though it does seem weird if he did that considering he is still part chinese)

The bt is on Icefish. It is the Kang Xi Lai Le 2nd of November ep.
This is the IceFish web link http://bt.icefish.org/1.htm just gotta search under Kang Xi Lai Le (康熙来了) and you will be able to find the link to the torrent.

[fabbie]

Do Tailor-made roles STILL suit William?

He is spiffy suits are as famous as he is. So much so Singaporean model-turn-actor Leon Williams was once asked by fans wheher he sleeps in a suit :lol?: After all, the Taiwan-based heart-throb is rarely seen in anything else. When he once donned bermudas for a change; some of his co-workers stared at his lower body and teased: "Leon William, you do have legs!"

It has been more than 1 year since Leon, 29 achieved fame as a suit-clad fashion designer in the top-rated drama Heaven's Robe, but he has never quite stepped out of his characet. Now, reprises the jacketed image in his newly-launched drama, Green Green Forest, My Home.

His new role mirrors his life. Leon is a mixed parentage (German, Welsh, Japanese and Peranakan) His Price Charming character, William Spencer, has German, English, Chinese and American blood and speaks mostly in English. One girl in the drama calls him"Prince William" --- the nickname the Taiwanese media has given him. Some would say Leon is lucky to score another tailor-made role, but detractos are complaining of typecasting.

During a visit to a university campus in Taiwan to plug his new drama, he was asked by a curious fan if he would take on roles other than royalty. Before he could respond, someone in the crowd blurted out: "Tell him to play a tian qiao zai" Tian qiao zai is smiliar to the local Ah Beng. Leon gamely agreed --- prompting laughter. When someone finally explained the term, his face turn tomato red, but he said with a smile: "Actually i can do comdey very well too!" Maybe it's time for a change for his princey image has failed to work its magic this time.

The first few episodes of Green Green Forest, My Home drew only 2.4 per cent viewershio. The previous drama in the same time slot, The Prince Who Turn Into A Frog, had 7 per cent. Its producers Wang Li-ming told the Great Daily News that it will take time for fans to warm up to the drama. But some online detractos have pointed their fingers at Leon's acting and how his English-speaking character has alienated Taiwan's Manadarin-speaking majority. Leon stressed that he will work harder on his Mandarin to live up to audiences' expectations.

Meanwhile, he has a bigger problem on hand --- to prove his fashion sense after drawing flak for attending Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards in May in a copper shirt with pleated trimmings and high -waist black pants.

For Taiwan's TV and radio's Golden Bell Awards tomorrow, Leow reportedly stared shopping for clothes as early as last week. One wonders, will it be a suit again?

_____________________________________________________________________

if his chinese is so perfect.. i don't think anyone will notice him.. when he speak in chinese is really very cute and when he didnt even know how to say.. This really makes me laff and always been make fun by others.. Hmmm i still like him now.. like this.. no change hehehe.. wonder how he looks like when he is in shorts

Actually in the Green Green Forest there are 2 male leads, so i don't understand why they had to push the blame of the low viewership to Leon.
And besides, the average Idol drama is about 3 or smth like that right?
WangZiBianQingWa is a exception.

(ok, can anyone tell i am pissed? lol)


Someone uploaded a Variety programme in another forum, the programme has Leon and Ming Dao. It is really funny. It was flimed during the Heaven's Robe time. Here's the link to the webbie:
