The actress revealed that her family influenced her to take better care of her health
Faced with irregular working hours and a lack of sleep, actress Jesseca Liu found herself falling sick easily. However, a health tip from her nutritionist sister has left her feeling "healthier".
"I've abstain from meat for the past one-and-a-half years," Jesseca shared at a press conference on May 8. The spokesperson for 1 DAY ACUVUE DEFINE added, "My diet is primarily vegetables and fish [seafood] now".
At the press conference, the 33-year-old also candidly shared her childhood stories, revealing that she was "the first to start wearing spectacles in class," and was nicknamed "four-eye girl" by her classmates.
Being short-sighted, Jesseca could not see well once she removes her spectacles and it became a hassle whenever she exercises. "It is very inconvenient to wear spectacles," shared the actress who was an active high jumper.
At the recent Star Awards 2012, the actress and regular screen partner Christopher Lee, lost out on the Favourite On-Screen Couple award. Jesseca revealed that she will be paired with the 40-year-old once again in June for a new drama.
When asked about the award show, the actress expressed her regret for not being able to be part of the second show as she is no longer a MediaCorp artiste. 'I miss the feeling [of being nervous while waiting for the results], but am glad that I will not be experiencing the stress again,' the actress let on.
When asked if she will consider signing a special contract, similar to Thomas Ong's, which gives more freedom for the artiste, with MediaCorp, Jesseca revealed that she only wished to 'concentrate on the ..... (article cut to save bandwidth)
The talented singer-songwriter did not get any nominations for Golden Melody Awards this year
Singapore singer, JJ Lin, failed to get any nominations for this year's Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, leading many to question the ceremony's credibility.
JJ expressed his disappointment at not receiving a nomination on his microblog yesterday. The singer added that he "respects the judges' decisions" and believed that "it is more important if everyone accepts my music."
"There's no need to console me [for not getting nominated] because I know I still have a long way, and many more good songs to write. I believe that in the music scene, good music will be the music that can be accepted by everyone," the 31-year-old continued in the post on his microblog.
JJ's statement received support from netizens and the singer's "goddess", S.H.E. member Hebe Tien reposted his message for the first time, adding that JJ is "very good! I acknowledge your work!"
This caused a buzz on the Internet as netizens urged the pair to "get together" and joked with JJ that "Hebe's encouragement is better than received a Golden Melody Award."
Fellow S.H.E. member, JJ's good friend Ella Chen even teased the singer, "This time round, you are on cloud nine!!"

In the latest TVB costume series House of Harmony and Vengeance, Sire Ma and William Chak develop a relationship and have created lots of romantic sparks! In the series, Sire plays a dancer and has a crush on her image adviser William. "Because William and JJ [Jia] also have a relationship, and at the time my role thought he liked JJ's type of girls. So I always had to be like JJ, put on heavy makeup and wear sexy clothing. I created a lot of trouble!"
Sire also praised William's diligence in real life and that he knows how to look after the people around him. She said: "I remember we had a scene, where I had to jump into the hot spring. The hot spring had disinfectant added into it, so when I was immersed into the water, it made my throat feel uncomfortable and I felt like coughing. But because the scene was about me passing out, William knew to give me a little shake when he carried me out and that helped blur my appearance on camera, otherwise we would have had to retake the scene several times!"
William frankly expressed they are both under the same manager, so they know each other well in private. He also praised Sire is a good actress and she has an easy to get along personality. In the series, William plays ..... (article cut to save bandwidth)

Yesterday Linda Chung, Jason Chan, Oscar Leung, Lin Xiawei and Cilla Kung attended the costume fitting for TVB new series Ferris Wheel Happiness. When the 23 year old TVB female artist rape case was mentioned, Oscar expressed: "I feel the Heaven is helping me clarify the previous rumor that I was involved in a rape case." In regards to the earlier rumor that he was involved in another rape case of a female artist, he expressed its a story created out of nothing, but the rumor has affected him because after the report came out, the public misunderstood he violated the law. It was also rumored he paid a 'shut up fee' to escape the issue. In reality, if there is a case, the police will handle it and nobody can stop the news or privately settle it themselves. Oscar now feels relieved, but he doesn't know who the female artist victim is nor does he know the person. He hopes she'll win her justice back soon.
Linda Chung has also taken a photo with Lee Ming Ho (person accused of rape) before, she expressed she has taken photos with too many people before and does not have an impression on him. She will have to ask the other staff if she knows Lee Ming Ho. It turns out when she released her debut album, she went to his recording studio before and have also rehearsed for JSG there. However, she does not know Lee because she didn't have ..... (article cut to save bandwidth)

As rumor says, Selena Li is pursued by many, that's not surprising. That is related to her appearance. Selena majored in accounting, perhaps she is well qualified in HK's Central, but the place she works at is called TVB City, who isn't beautiful there? That is related to attitude. Selena initially came from a wealthy family, but her father eventually went bankrupted. When she participated in Miss Hong Kong, she won Miss Photogenic, but in the end she didn't even make it in the top five. She opened a beauty makeup school, but gets involved in a pyamind scheme scandal. All of that was worth drinking to forget the trouble, chug down two glasses of whiskey and vomit all over the floor, is what local young girls are likely to do. Selena wipes off her sweat and said: "For anything, should look a bit further, then you will realize there's a lot of the so-called misfortune in life, but actually that is a gift. The misfortune allows you to be stronger when greater future challenges come before you." Such an optimistic and active person, it's rare in this world.
It's a pity that Selena is said to only like second generation wealthy guys or even wealthy first generations, making the oridinary people take a step back. "I had a boyfriend, named Patrick Tang. We were together for 5 years."
At age 6, Selena moved to Toronto with her mother. They lived in a ..... (article cut to save bandwidth)
