Megan Fox: "I Regret" Lying in Interviews

Megan Fox is wigging out!

In a new photo spread for Interview magazine, the 24-year-old actress is barely recognizable: wearing a retro bob wig, she poses suggestively with a lookalike mannequin. The article even notes that Fox asked to keep the doppelganger mannequin's head as a souvenir at the end of the photo shoot.

"I don't want to open my mouth or speak anymore," Fox tells interviewer/actor Zach Galifianakis. "Everything I say becomes scandalous."

Despite her ubiquitous presence (thanks to the first two Transformers films), Fox explains, "I'm one of those people who fiercely guards their privacy, so I hate doing interviews."

She admits, in fact, to lying during interviews to protect herself.

"I have said some things to throw people off the scent of what's really going on in my life. So I have sort of aided the media in printing these misconceptions, which I regret."

Mets Apologize to Jerry Seinfeld About Lady Gaga's One-Finger Salute

Lady Gaga caused quite a stir yesterday when she flashed a one-finger salute to fans and cameras at the New York Mets game. Turns out, she was sitting in Jerry Seinfeld's vacant luxury box when she did it. Oops!

EOnline reports that Lady Gaga asked to be relocated from her seats right behind home plate, saying she was feeling camera shy. The Mets PR team put her in an empty VIP box-which just happened to be owned by Seinfeld. Within minutes of being settling in to the nicer digs, the underwear-clad singer starting giving the finger.

The Mets are pretty embarrassed about the whole incident and issued an apology to Seinfeld. The statement said, "We deeply regret that Jerry Seinfeld has been associated with this matter and have apologized to him. The use of Jerry Seinfeld's suite was unauthorized and unknown to him at the time. We made a quick decision to place Lady Gaga and her group in a private suite because of issues related to her visit."

Seinfeld showed he wasn't too upset when his spokesperson told RadarOnline, "The Seinfelds take an optimistic view of Lady Gaga's gesture as a sign that she wants the Mets to be in first place as badly as they do."

Droid Xtreme Hands-On

The Motorola handsets keep getting leaked! Starting with a phone lost in a gym, now we’re all the way up to the handset getting some major hands-on time, where it manages to stay still long enough to take some pretty nice still photos. The Motorola Droid Xtreme, or Droid X if you prefer, is obviously a real thing, and with this set of photos, we finally get some “confirmed” specs. They may not be confirmed by Motorola yet, but that has to be soon.


The Motorola Droid Xtreme is supposedly one of two devices Motorola is primed to launch next month. While the Droid 2 has already been photographed, the Droid Xtreme has taken a bit more of a blurry cam approach to the Internet so far. Not this time. Thanks to our fine friends at Gadget University, we finally get to see what the Droid Xtreme looks like, up close and personal (with no blurriness). How are the specs looking? Something like this: A 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen, Android 2.1, a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, and a new version of MOTOBLUR. And, on the back, while we can’t say for certain, it sure does look like there’s an 8MP camera there.

HTC EVO 4G subjected to harrowing barrage of scratch tests, holds its own


The thought of marring the EVO 4G's glorious 4.3-inch display sends shivers down our spine, but just remember: this is all in the name of science, and it's for the greater good. An Android Forums member was due to return his defective EVO to Sprint anyhow, so he figured he'd take the opportunity to run the lame duck unit through some torturous scratch tests including keys, a screw, a penny, and -- of course -- a razor blade. After everything was said and done, the EVO emerged victorious, so you shouldn't feel too bad about sticking it in your pocket with spare change knocking around (actually, yes, you still should feel bad about that). Then again, the camera lens didn't do as well, so the lesson is to use common sense and... you know, just handle your multi-hundred-dollar gadgets with care. Follow the break for all the harrowing test footage.

It’s an Empire State of Mind with the Wonder Girls and 2PM

Most New Yorkers sought air-conditioned refuge from the scorching heat and hair-frizzing humidity as temperatures climbed into the 90s this past Sunday. Wonder Girls and 2PM fans, however, bravely lined 34th Street for blocks as they awaited the 8:00 p.m. concert as early as 9 o’clock that morning. If you can’t call that dedication, I don’t know what is.


A bad sunburn and 11 hours later, wilted (but quickly re-energized) fans were finally ushered into the Hammerstein Ballroom by groups of 10 or so. With many tours under its belt, JYPE obviously knew crowd control would be on red alert with a ”first come first serve” standing room concert that day. But as soon as fans reached the entrance doors, I felt like Simba, who watched in terror as Pride Land’s entire population of wildebeest charged towards his little body in the gorge. But replace wildebeest with fan girls and Simba with older/slower bystander (me) and you get the picture.

Jay Chou sings "come back to me" directed towards Jolin Tsai?


Jay has been carefully building his masterpiece, "The Era" album, for several years. Every word in the lyrics have been analyzed, and the fans are not willing to let goof any chances and clues to get closer to the King of the World (Jay Chou). The fifth song of this new album "Long time no see", was published after rumors were spread online written by Jolin Tsai, which include that Jay and Jolin reconciled.

According to the detailed lyrics, it offers some evidence, such as: "Has your puppy grown up?", "Cold wars are no longer popular", and "Hurry up and come back to my side". It looks as if he really knows what he is doing. According to one weekly publication, Jolin Tsai's agent responded that bloggers have such a big imagination, both Jay and Jolin are still friends.

HTC’s patent complaint against Apple moves forward


HTC’s patent-related legal action against Apple took a huge step forward today, as the ITC announced it will formally investigate the claims made by HTC. At the heart of the matter are five patents which HTC alleges Apple is using without permission. The patents include personalized software phone dialers, a phone dialer with memory access, and power-management technology. HTC, which filed the complaint in response to Apple’s very own patent lawsuit against HTC, is asking that the ITC block the U.S. importation of iPhones iPads and iPods.

CNET is reporting that big-box retailer Walmart will be selling the fourth generation iPhone on its respective launch day.

‘Eclipse’ Engagement Ring Details Revealed!


Talk about eternity in the making! The engagement ring given to Bella by Edward in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, was a true labor of love, reports InStyle.com, requiring a prop master, five different jewelers, several samples and a multitude of research to finally get the glittering piece to perfection–and up to author Stephenie Meyer’s liking. The task of designing the antique engagement ring–described by Meyer in her Eclipse novel as a delicate piece “set with slanting rows of glittering round stones”–fell on prop master Grant Swain, who tirelessly researched Victorian-era jewelry before calling in samples and hiring four different designers to create various prototypes of the ring. But to no avail: Meyer, unimpressed with the model baubles, took it upon herself to draw up a rough sketch of the ring as she had envisioned it. The illustration was sent to Portland-based jeweler Rick Thurber, who used a computerized image of the drawing to create the end result — a stunning pave-diamond ring that was rushed to the set just hours before filming of the pivotal scene began! To get more details about this story, check out InStyle.com, where you can also see how experts envision Bella and Edward’s wedding day.

Adobe expects Flash on 250 million smartphones by end of 2012


While in the midst of fixing a unicorn-sized hole in the security of its desktop software, Adobe has been talking about its future in the mobile space. According to its rose-tinted forecasts, Flash Player will be featured in a quarter billion handsets by the end of 2012, including 53 percent of all smarphones shipped that year. Those are pretty strident words for a company that has yet to ship Flash Player 10.1 in even one new handset, but we're reminded that Android 2.2's leading position on the issue will be swiftly followed by BlackBerry OS, Symbian, webOS, and Windows Phone 7 supporting the full fat Flash experience. Whether all that momentum will be enough to produce an install base of 250 million, we don't know. What we do know, however, is that people want the blasted thing and Adobe had better start doing a bit more work on its mobile player and a little less talking about it -- that's what we're here for.

Sprint to begin throttling data this summer? (update: not exactly)


You know the fine print of your EVO 4G contract that gives Sprint the right to limit throughput speeds without notice? Skipped past that part? Well, consider this your unofficial notice. If what we're reading above is accurate, then Sprint appears ready to introduce data throttling this summer. Where and how are the big questions. The image above received from a tipster appears to have been grabbed from Sprint's own "The Playbook," though we have no way of confirming that at this time. It certainly make sense though given T-Mobile USA's recent move away from overage charges in favor of throttling.

Jodie Foster Attacked Teen Boy?

Academy Award-winning actress Jodie Foster has been accused of battery by a 17-year-old boy after an incident in the parking lot of a Los Angeles-area shopping mall, according to RadarOnline.com. However, the actress's rep tells PEOPLE that the accusations are a "fabrication."

The incident occurred on May 29 at the Grove shopping complex. According to the police report, the boy spotted Foster in the valet parking area and approached her to take a picture. The police report was filed after the incident and officers did not report to the scene.

Describing the incident to Radar, the boy's father said, "Jodie pushed and shoved him leaving scratches and bruises on his arm ... She came after him, poked him in the chest and said, 'Do you even have a mother you slime ball?' He didn't mouth back at all and was scared of her."

However, the actress's rep tells another story. "This guy was most definitely a professional paparazzo," says the rep. "He had a large camera bag and 1000mm telephoto lens. He tailed Jodie and followed her all the way from the movie theater to the valet."

Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga: A Love-Fest

When Lady Gaga recently revealed she loves singing Taylor Swift's hit "You Belong with Me" at the top of her lungs, no one was more surprised – or excited – than the country singer herself.

"That absolutely made my day when I read that because I'm a huge fan of hers," Swift tells CMT Insider in an interview airing Saturday at 1:30 ET.

Gaga, 24, who said in an interview that she starts singing along to Swift's song "so loudly" when she hears it on the radio that she's "so embarrassed," had also praised the country star, 20, for being "a great songwriter."

"It's a great song!" Gaga told Show Studio. "I think it's just because it's very whimsical in a way that I'm not necessarily whimsical every day."

Chace Crawford Charged With Marijuana Possession

They weren’t kidding when they told you not to mess with Texas: Gossip Girl hottie Chace Crawford has been hit with a misdemeanor charge of possession of marijuana, stemming from a drug arrest in his hometown of Plano last Friday.

Crawford was arrested early Friday, June, 4, outside Ringo’s Pub with two ounces of pot tucked away in his pocket.

If convicted, Chance faces up to six months in jail and a $2,000 fine.

Law firm offers to defend 'Hurt Locker' sharers

The heat is being turned up on the company representing the producers of "The Hurt Locker" as it wages a wide-ranging litigation campaign against illegal file sharing.

In Arizona, a law firm called White Berberian recently began advertising on its site that it will defend those accused of illegal file sharing by Dunlap Grubb & Weaver. That is the firm, which also goes by the name U.S. Copyright Group, that is filing lawsuits on behalf of filmmakers who claim their movies were pirated by thousands of peer-to-peer users.

In addition to the Oscar-winning film "The Hurt Locker," Dunlap Grubb represents about a dozen movies, including "Far Cry" and "Call of the Wild 3D." The law firm has said that it will sue more than 50,000 alleged file sharers.

So far, it appears thousands of people have received settlement offers from Dunlap Grubb and many are confused about their rights. Typically, people learn about being accused of violating copyright law from their Internet service providers, which inform them that they have received a subpoena to turn over their identity to Dunlap Grubb.

Nintendo 3DS mockup suggests asymmetric screens

This, according to Kotaku’s mock-up artists, is what we should expect from the Nintendo 3DS when the 3D-capable gaming handheld makes its official debut at E3 next week. The design, based on a sketch by a Chinese blogger who apparently claims to have a 3DS development kit, certainly fits in with what we’ve seen before of Nintendo’s testing hardware; the upper display would be the glasses-free 3D panel believed to be sourced from Sharp, while the lower would be a touchscreen of the same aspect ratio as the current DSi.


The gaming site goes on to further run through the various rumors about the 3DS, discounting the possibility of an analog stick – they believe any such control would be done via the touchscreen – and mentioning that the Chinese source highlighted the 3DS’ MP3/AAC hardware decoding and onboard media playback. Meanwhile there’s also talk of a new, proprietary game cartridge, expected to be around the size of a CompactFlash card, as well as backward compatibility with DS games.

Fan Bingbing: Just trying to do her best, not to be an empress


Since the 7th Century, only the emperors of China could wear a longpao, a yellow robe stitched with dragons, symbolic of power and prosperity. So it was that conspires of coups forged their own dragon robes at home, only to be found and sentenced to death. So when Fan Bingbing appeared at the Cannes Festival in a dress fashioned after the dragon robes of the emperors, critics compared her with the emperor-wannabes, calling her move a sign of ambition. In an interview with Sina Entertainment (SE) translated by ixiedin@cfensi, Fan Bingbing says it is only her way of showing the world her culture. She also speaks of her ambitions, and attributes to her overfilled work schedule to her just trying to do her best.

Viter Fan madly pursues Alice Tseng after high-profile scandal

When Viter Fan doesn’t wear his face mask, his blabbering continues on. He has even mentioned pursuing his co-star on CTV’s idol drama [Scent of Love], Alice Tseng. The drama has already completed filming. However, Viter Fan has publicly announced his admiration for Alice. He has asked her out to dinner many times, but has always been rejected. When she heard this, Alice was a bit awkward and could only smile.

As for the aftermath of his “lost words”, Viter Fan said on the 3rd: “This is the last time I’m mentioning Cyndi Wang.” All the memories she left him were ended on April Fool’s Day when Viter posted pictures and comments on his Facebook. On June 3rd, Viter and Alice became one-day charity workers for the Huashan Social Welfare Foundation. That day, the two went to accompany a 75-year old man for the day.

On the other hand, during [Scent of Love] filming, Viter Fan did ask Alice Tseng to go out to eat. The two co-stars often had close interactions. Viter commented: “She never agrees to go out with me. I’m quite hurt.” He hopes to have a healthy relationship when dating with someone. As for women he admires, he hopes to have a chance to date them. However, Alice has not agreed and so he will continue persevering for his chance.

Batty Lady Gaga wears studded bra and knickers to the baseball

Jeans and a T-shirt would have sufficed, but that's just not Lady Gaga's style.

The singer wore a studded leather bra and a head scarf as she watched the San Diego Padres take on the New York Mets in New York last night.


Despite her eye-catching ensemble it appeared Gaga had hoped she would somehow blend into the crowd.

On noticing a sports photographer turn her way her good mood soured and she gave him the finger.

The singer was watching the game with friends at Citi Field in the Flushing neighbourhood of Queens.

'Transformers 3' will be in 3D

Former 3D cynic Michael Bay also releases plot details

The next instalment of the Transformers franchise will be released in 3D. Director Michael Bay had previously dismissed 3D as "a gimmick", and claimed “the way I shoot is far too aggressive for 3D cameras” - but appears to have changed his mind, following the new filmmaking technique's success.

Bay also revealed some plot details for the third instalment of the Transformers franchise, which includes a suggestion that the 1957 to 1975 space race between Russia and the US was influenced by giant robots.

The storyline will also involve less comedy and more drama involving Sam Witwicky’s (Shia LaBoeuf) transition from boy to man.

Megan Fox, who played Mikaela in the first two films, has been replaced as LaBoeuf’s love interest by Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

comScore Says Bing And Yahoo Gained Market Share In May. Or Have They?

Audience measurement firm comScore has released its May 2010 U.S. Search Data report, and it shows continued market share gains for Yahoo and Microsoft.

Yahoo and Bing/MSN each added approximately 60 bps and 30 bps to 18.3% and 12.1%, respectively. Google is down, claims comScore, declining approximately 70 bps for the second consecutive month to 63.7%.

But that’s not the whole story, and investors need to caution when interpreting the data as presented by comScore, say analysts.

Gleacher & Company’s Broadpoint.AmTech puts it this way:

While these numbers are correct on an apples-to-apples basis (in the sense that certain types of searches – e.g. contextual shortcuts and slide-shows – are being counted consistently across properties), the trending data for which we think comScore is most useful shows a different picture.

Windows Phone 7 trial apps detailed: better than iPhone & Android

Microsoft have been showing off their streamlined try-before-you-buy functionality in Windows Phone 7, and at first glance this is a far slicker system than what’s out there on the iPhone, Android or other platforms. Rather than developers producing two versions of their apps, free and paid, the new trial API will allow for in-app upgrades. istartedsomething has screenshots of the new UI.


As for what the trial versions will include, Microsoft is being admirably flexible on that, too. The API allows for everything from time-limited access to full applications through to cut-down or ad-supported trials with partial features. If the user is happy they can instantly unlock the software by paying in-app, without having to re-download a second version or jump out into the Windows Marketplace.

Here's The Most Popular Apps On Android, iPhone And BlackBerry

Here's an interesting set of charts from Nielsen analyzing the most popular apps on each smartphone platform.


As you can see, app usage is pretty uniform across the board. Smartphone users love Facebook, Maps, Pandora and the Weather Channel.

There's only one really glaring exception across the platforms. Apple's iPod and iTunes are huge on the iPhone. On BlackBerry and Android, music players aren't very hot.

This explains Google's purchase of Simplify Media to build a better music player and music experience for Android.

Mike Ho Exposed to be Picky Over Girls, Ruby Lin Show Sexy Shoulder


Romantic "spy-war" comedy "You Deserve to Be Single" has held its grand premiere in Beijing on 10 June, director Cai Xin together with main cast Angie Zhao husband and wife, Ruby Lin, Mike Ho, Ai Dai, Tao Hong, Gao Fei, Zhang Chao, Huang XiaoLei.etc turns up together. Ruby Lin, who appears in a gown which reveals both her pretty shoulder-lines and leg, and Mike Ho both express that they are currently single, but David Wu "teases" them, "Why single? Don't be too picky, because they aint satisfied, picking too much on their love ones!"

Mike Ho, was said to be too picky about girls. Ruby Lin rejects immediately

"Even when meeting the right person, I will also need a long time to determine that she's my true love, but sadly because of the hectic workload I do not have the time to go and determine this face, that's why I'm still single!" Mike He reveals the reason behind his singlehood, but David Wu teases him, "Being single is because he's difficult to satisfy, too picky!" David Wu won't give up, "If there's a spark, Xiaomei will definitely be the party which needs to be inspected on, because he isn't the trustworthy type." Mike He doesn't rebut but smiles and he listens on. David Wu starts laughing, "Actually everyone is picky in their own terms, because everyone has their own principles." "But", he continues, "I'm not that picky about my girl, as long as she is alive its alright."

Selina to be wed next year?

During S.H.E’s concert on the 29th of last month, Selina openly accepted boyfriend and lawyer Zhang Cheng Zhong’s declaration of love, revealing their love relationship - the two have been secreting dating for three years. Yesterday, Selina’s father’s mouth slipped and revealed that the big day is set to be next year and that his daughter is currently looking for a new place, “I hope that the engagement and marriage can be done at the same time. As for the date, we will respect the groom’s decision.” Selina’s record label HIM wishes the couple well and assures that S.H.E will not break up.

Ah Zhong (Zhang Cheng Zhong) and Selina first met during S.H.E’s 2006 concert, where he was invited to attend as his mom has been good friends with Selina’s mom. Last month, he bravely declared his love and he later said, “It must be fate,” because that night, he was sitting very close to where he had sat three years ago at the 2006 S.H.E concert.

Video Teaser of BoA’s Woo Weekend


A video teaser of BoA’s upcoming Japanese single Woo Weekend has been released. This single commemorates the 25th anniversary of “Disney On Ice” in Japan.

Retro is becoming a trend lately and this video will remind you of the 80’s. Check out the colorful teaser below.

HTC Liberty for AT&T revealed during routine testing video


Oh, AT&T -- you can't post up a video detailing the testing process for Android phones and not expect us to notice that your guys are waving around the heretofore unannounced HTC Liberty, which was leaked by Android Central on Sunday. Honestly, now. It's hard to tell much from the video apart from the fact that this thing is running Sense and has a flush face with capacitive buttons along the bottom, but the leak says the screen res is just 320 x 480, which is somewhat less than awesome. Of course, AT&T's Android lineup has been relatively low-end so far, so maybe we're not so surprised, but we're hoping this thing is a little more Desire than Legend, if you catch us. Video after the break.

Samsung Galaxy S taking UK pre-orders, Vodafone promises June 15 delivery


Were you looking forward to purchasing a 16GB smartphone with unique screen technology and an app-centric OS this month? Great, because the Galaxy S pre-order has now gone live in the UK, offering a delivery only four days away from now and prices that are pretty much par for the superphone course. If you want the Super AMOLED machine for free, minimum monthly cost will be steep, starting out at £35 ($51) a pop over 24 months or £40 ($58) over 18 lunar cycles. Both those deals furnish you with 900 minutes of talk time, unlimited texts, and 1GB of 3G data, but the latter works out to be the better value as it tallies up to £720 ($1,045) in total investment over the full term. Then again, most of what Vodafone has on tap compares favorably to the madness O2 is asking iPhone 4 buyers to pony up.

Apple Begins Urging Developers To Get Their iOS 4 Apps In For Launch

Today, Apple has begun emailing iPhone app developers to let them know they’re now accepting iOS 4-compatible apps in the App Store. Just as it does each time before a new OS launches (such as earlier this year with the iPad OS, which was iPhone OS 3.2 — yes, it’s a little confusing), Apple wants to make sure it has apps to show off when the new OS hits on June 21 (three days before the iPhone 4 launch).


And this launch is important because it brings the ability for third-party applications to run in the background for the first time. Earlier today, Pocket-lint noted that “massive delays” were expected for multitasking apps. But there were two major problems with this report. First, it seemed to suggest that the iPhone 4 was the key to multitasking. In fact, it is iOS 4 that brings the ability to multitask, and it brings it to the iPhone 3GS and latest generation iPod touch as well. More importantly, they noted that “in our initial testing, only Apple apps, like the Clock, Mail and Safari, can multitask. That’s it!” Um, that’s because there are no third-party apps available yet that have this built in. That’s exactly why Apple is sending out emails that they’re going to start accepting them now.

Ashley Greene Wants to be in a Bond Movie!

ASHLEY Greene wants to be a Bond girl!

The Twilight actress says she’s love to star alongside British actor Daniel Craig in a new 007 movie.

“I would love to be in a Bond movie,” says the 23-year-old actress. “I love action films because I have kind of dabbled in that a little bit now with Eclipse.

“I like the characters in the Bond movies. They are always really strong but have a little twist to them. They are just such cool characters to play.”

Greene recently admitted she has “definitely thought about” hooking up with her Twilight costar Kellan Lutz.

“He’s one of my best friends, but if we were going to be romantic, we would have done it years ago!” she said last month.

“I like having him to talk to about other guys to get that male perspective. I really cherish our relationship, so I wouldn’t want to mess that up by dating.”

Nokia N8’s music player and HDMI capabilities showcased on video

While we’re waiting for more details on that leaked Nokia C7 to show up, Nokia has posted another official video walkthrough of its first Symbian^3 smartphone – the N8 – this time presenting the handset’s music player, and its HDMI capabilities.


The N8’s music player looks OK, and it obviously works both in portrait and landscape mode. It seems that it does its job well when users want to search for songs, albums and artists, or scroll through playlists.

The new video talks more about the smartphone’s HDMI connectivity (and I hope that the converter cable shown is included in the N8’s standard package). A cool ability of Nokia N8 is that it allows you to use Bluetooth accessories (like keyboards) to control the content you see on your HD TV. Watch more about that in the official video:

Motorola Droid Xtreme To Be Called Droid X?


These impending Motorola Android phones are getting rather tricky, aren't they? So far we know the Droid 2 Shadow will be the successor to last year's Droid, with a slide-out keyboard. The Droid Xtreme is the keyboard-less phone which was found in a Verizon gym the other week, but is said (thanks to some spy-shots of Verizon's marketing system) to be called the Droid X.

Details gleaned from the system suggest that it has a 4.3-inch screen, and a "Safari" browser, which we're guessing is a mistake—unless Apple has got over its issues with Google and decided to license out its Safari browser. Oh look—a pig just flew past my window!

Foxconn Closing China Factories?


According to a Chinese news site, electronics manufacturer Foxconn is closing its China-based factories—including the Shenzhen location which has been scrutinized over rampant employee suicides. This could mean that up to 800,000 workers would lose their jobs

According to the yet-to-be-confirmed report by ON.CC, Foxconn is withdrawing from China because it intends to shift its focus onto factories in Taiwan, Vietnam, and India.

New PS3 models outed by FCC just days ahead of E3


With the big E3 Expo set to kick off in just four days, we must admit to being more than a little intrigued at finding a new PS3 model bumble its way out of the FCC test labs. PlayStation 3 models CECH-2501A and CECH-2501B are both certified for 802.11b/g WiFi and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR differing only in hard disk drive configurations. We're also seeing a pair of PS3 DECH-2500A and DECH-S2500A debugging stations -- interesting since a debug unit is typically only required when there's been a change in the chips on the motherboard. Feel free to speculate as we prepare for E3 to kick off on June 15th.

Janine Zhang's "Sunshine Day" breaks ice; no sparks with Mike He

Graduating does not equate to being jobless; female star Janine Zhang graduates from NCU Institute of Economics with her Masters, and following this, she will go to Xiamen to film her new drama "Bliss Most Sunshine". She is indeed very busy.

Janine Zhang acts as a Miss Multi-purpose in "Bliss Most Sunshine", getting married with the hotel's boss by accident. In the drama, she tries the housekeeping maid look for the first time, but without the reverie of nudity. In the past, she had the name of "Cool-Beauty". However, this time she films "Sunshine" and broke the ice with her cordial character. She expressed that she had fun working with the male lead Mike He, just that the both of them did not have 'sparks'. The producer Chen Yan Ping laughed: "The four leads in our drama are all from the earth signs/horoscopes, totally no sparks."

Mike He and her are/were both students, and when they were filming in Nantou, their common topic was studying. Every week, Mike had to take two days off, returning to Xing Wu to attend classes, and Janine Zhang also had to rush to write her report. Now that Janine Zhang has successfully graduated, she will not need to juggle both work and studies at the same time.

Next Time Dating, Jerry Yan: Would Make It Public

Away from Beijing for 5 years, Jerry Yan held a book signing for his photo album "9314 Man and Boy" in the city. He once dated Chi-ling Lin, a romantic relationship that the two couldn't make it public. Yesterday it was his first time talking about romance in the future: "If it's at a right situation, I would make it public to everyone."


As for qualities of his other half, he said: "Want to find a serious girl, although I got older, but I am not mature enough, need a exquisite girl to take care of me." He stressed relationship depends on fate, if that day really comes, he would tell everyone.

Jerry went to Australia to shoot photos for this photo album, he joked that the media should introduce girlfriends to him: "If I have a girlfriend, maybe I would bring her to Australia, open a farm there, and take care of little animals together. Although I'm not someone who knows how to make girls happy, but I would try to tell jokes everyday to make her laugh."

Joe Cheng denies popularity decrease; good friend with Ethan Ruan, not afraid of comparison

On the 9th of June, self-produced Drama Series "Welcome Love" announced that it is confirmed and will start production. They will be filming in Qing Dao for two months.
