Last week three beautiful models Bae Noo Ri, Jang Min Byul and Jung Hyun Nam, were chosen for the LolliGirls contest. These three girls were chosen for Mnet’s survival program, I’m Your LolliGirl, where they searched for female models to promote the LG CYON Lollipop2 cellphones side-by-side with Big Bang. These girls recently took photos with the boys to endorse the new phone and now Mnet has released a backstage / behind the scenes video.
The lucky models not only had the opportunity to work with Big Bang, but they also received 10 million won (approximately $10,000). I’m not sure which prize the fan girls would want more after looking at this video… especially after you see the girls hug the members of Big Bang. Check out the video below.

Windows Phone 7

Microsoft has apparently revealed at a developer event in India that it intends to produce a "low-cost version" of Windows Phone 7 primarily targeting emerging markets that would come after the initial volley of higher-end devices schedule to launch at the tail end of this year. Little else is known at this point, but Sudeep Bharati -- director of India's Visual Studio group -- has mentioned that it will have a smaller screen, suggesting that this might be one and the same as the HVGA spec Microsoft mentioned back at MIX a few weeks ago. He went on to say that they're currently in talks with manufacturers to get feedback on the lower-end version, so it sounds like this isn't quite solidified yet -- but considering that the first WinPho 7 devices promise to be pretty pricey, we wouldn't mind seeing these things materialize, "emerging market" or otherwise.

Following the great amount of interests from Korean and international fans and netizens regarding some of the responses that So Nyeo Shi Dae Tiffany made during her interview with English gaming site Cubed3, the host site has taken down the interview content and announced that the interview came from an unknown and unauthentic source.
The site wrote, “It has come to the attention of Cubed3 that an unknown source has willingly attempted to portray themselves as Tiffany from Girls’ Generation in order to gain attention. “
Go under the cut for more information.

Many of the hardware requirements are already known, but there are quite a few other tidbits which shed some light on the inner workings of Microsoft’s latest smartphone OS. Just keep in mind when you’re reading this that all of the information is tentative and may change once Windows Phone 7 is officially released later this year. Hit the jump when you’re ready!

Apple has just updated its online store with a shipping date for the 3G-equipped variants of its iPad. As you can see, all varieties of the hallowed Apple tablet should be out and about by May 7th -- meaning that some deliveries could sneak out even earlier -- and you can expect AT&T will be ready and waiting for you to activate that $30 a month unlimited data plan. Just for the European record, that means the iPad will be out in full force for American consumers three days ahead of the announcement of specific international availability. Ah well, at least that gives the UK and others hope that they might see the 3G and WiFi-only slates coming out at the same time, which should be somewhere around the end of May.

Users of webOS and HTC Sense can skip ahead, you're already familiar with tight social networking integration on your handsets. Now Apple appears ready to join the social, so to speak. New evidence of low-level Facebook event and contacts integration has been revealed in iPhone OS 4 hinting at the possibility of unified Calendar and Contacts apps from Apple when the OS launches this summer on, um, this device. Web site Website Gunning for Safety says that Apple appears to have created a "separate type of contact" just for Facebook. On its own, the claim is suspect if only because the site's focus is related to nail gun safety. But we've grabbed copies of the associated .plist files from a jailbroken iPhone running OS 4 that seemingly back the claim. There's even mention of a generic "SocialKitInternal.framework" opening the door for integration with services like Twitter -- though we found no evidence for that. All this aligns nicely with a "Linked Contacts" feature discovered by AppleInsider last week. According to AI, multiple Linked Contacts can be associated to a single entry in the new iPhone OS 4 Contacts app. See some of the .plist evidence below.

Twins' "Everyone Bounces Up 2010" concert held its second show last night. Andy Hui and William So were the guests. The four of them sang "Kite and Wind - 風箏與風" together, Andy laughed and said that at first they were considering "Girl School Boy Classmate - 女校男生", but the song probably doesn't suit two men to sing. When Twins were singing, they noticed that Joey Yung was sitting below the stage and wanted her to come up to play with them on stage too. However, her throat was not feeling well, so she was only able to dance along with them and did not sing.
Kenny Kwan said that initially "Stubborn - 死性不改" was suppose to be a Boy'z song, but Twins stole it from them. But Boy'z did kneel down and thanked Ah Sa and Ah Gil for making the song popular. Ah Sa teased that Boy'z are now known as "Old Boy'z", Kenny refuted and said that their all about the same age, part of the 80s generation, still not old yet!

Zai Zai's return to Nanning caused Nanning fans to swoon once again. On April 11th, Taiwanese idol Vic Zhou (Zai Zai) appeared as the spokesperson for a certain personal care product line at Beijing's Hua Lian Jiangnan store. This was his second time to Nanning, his last visit being less than a year ago. For such a sought-after celebrity, the frequency of his visit to the same place is quite surprising, and for his fans there, it was like another paradise. One of the events involved Zai Zai acting as a last-minute photographer for his fans, which was quite interesting. If Zai Zai's visit to Nanning could be made into a book, it would definitely be full of lasting memories.

After 2PM’s former leader Jaebeom/Jay Park made a comeback of his own via Youtube and Project Korea III (in addition to the news of his upcoming movie Hype Nation), you would expect that fans would be happy at his return.
As we all know, fans can also stir up an angry mob like no other.
Earlier today, 2PM surprised anti-fans with the release of their comeback mini-album and music video Without U. In the hours after the release of both, Jay posted a bulletin on his Youtube that read,
“khuns rap part is fire. 2pm “without you” go check it out ! =)”
