http://gallery.asianfanatics.net/index.php?act=image&pid=501044

Following the phenomenal success of the Taiwanese group F4, a new iconic group has been sweeping fans off their feet around Asia.

Fahrenheit, comprising Aaron Yan, Wu Zun, Calvin Chen and Jiro Wang, is currently one of the hottest Chinese acts in the entertainment scene and is known as the ‘super boy band of the new millennium’.

The boys released their self-titled debut album in September 2006, and have been enjoying a roller-coaster ride to stardom ever since, with award-winning albums, highly-rated television drama series, multi-million endorsements and upcoming movies.

They were the first new foreign boy band to win bronze (third placing) for Best Group at the Hong Kong TVB8 Awards and quickly conquered even the non-mainstream Chinese territories such as Indonesia, Thailand, Japan and Korea.

Fahrenheit became the second Taiwanese boy band, after its predecessors F4, to hold a concert in Indonesia with only just one album released. The boys have also held mini concerts in Medan, North Sumatra and in Hong Kong And even fans from as far away as North America and Europe are sitting up and taking notice.

Last year, Fahrenheit held two concerts, one in Hong Kong and the other in Guangzhou and now, they are coming to Malaysia.

Fahrenheit’s Fantasy World Tour Live in Malaysia 2008 is scheduled to kick off on Nov 15, 2008 at Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur. Organised by Big Events, a ticket pre-sale event will be held at Sungai Wang Plaza, Kuala Lumpur tomorrow.

Fans who buy tickets within the first three hours (1pm to 3pm) stand the chance to win a 3-day, 2-night trip to Hongkong in a lucky draw.

In addition, there will also be interactive games played on stage with concert tickets and other exciting prizes to be won

A radio station (988), would also be running contests, whereby prizes include concert tickets and the chance to meet the boys in person as well as a fully-paid trip to Hongkong to watch Fahrenheit’s concert there scheduled for Sept 26 and 27.

Fans attending Fahrenheit’s Malaysian concert, which will showcase their individual talents as well as in a group, can expect to be blown away as fun, fun and more fun are promised by the energetic foursome.

After the Malaysian date, Fahrenheit will commence its tour to Singapore before continuing to China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Thailand and Indonesia.

Ron Ng says Charmaine Sheh and Kevin Cheng look compatible; Will tease Charmaine about the rumours

http://gallery.asianfanatics.net/index.php?act=image&pid=500630

New TVB series "The Four" held a promotion event yesterday. The cast accepted fitness tests and Ron Ng performed the best. Even when Halina Tam and Lee Mei Wei sat on his body he was still able to do push ups. Later on he piggy backed Dominic Lam Ka Wah while running on the treadmill.

Will tease Charmaine about the rumours

Earlier Ron and Charmaine Sheh were rumored together. But recently the male lead suddenly changed to Kevin Cheng which allowed him to withdraw from the rumor. When the reported joked that his girlfriend was stolen from him, Ron immediately said "You cannot say stolen, unless the people who are rumored admit the rumors otherwise it's just a joke. When I read the magazine I just laughed. They couldn't even take pictures of them in the same car or of them coming out of the main door". (Do you feel freedom now?) " Hope so, I hope the magazine will forget and I will be forgotten". (Have you asked Charmaine about it?) "Didn't ask, when I see her I will joke about it and tease about that news report. If it is real I will congratulate her". (Do you think they are compatible?) "Its not for me to say, but as an artist, male and females need to look compatiable otherwise how can you act dating scene's when filming together".

Ticket sale for "Magic Live" not selling well

Leon Lai is organizing a 3 day charity concert called "Magic Live concert" in Star Hall with Janice (衛蘭) and Michael Wong in November. Ticket sales only started last week; it was reported in a magazine that the ticket sales were very bad.

Speaking to reporters about the rumor, Leo responded "Why are you reporters so eager to know about the ticket sales? It has only been a week since we started selling the tickets. We should wait for another few more weeks. This event is for charity, can't you people look at it from a charity point of view? Did you think this is an Olympic game ticket sales, which gets sold out in the first 3 hours? I am not happy because somebody told me someone from East Asia Record has been spreading this rumor." Leon is pointing his finger at Ivana Wong's company.

Fahrenheit celebrates "Hit FM" s 10th birthday; Chun & Calvin interview

Asia’s most influential music station “Hit FM” celebrated its 10th birthday yesterday. Fahrenheit members Wu Zun and Calvin Chen specially headed to the radio station in the morning to participate in the celebration. When asked about the recent rumours with his co-worker Charlene Choi, Chun smiled and said, “We have some feelings but no electricity, we are just good friends, the rumours are all created by the media.” And as for the rumours about Jiro Wang and Chun not getting along, they re-surfaced again due to their celebration schedule, but Chun clarified: “We get along fine, the schedule is arranged by our management company.”

Chun is currently very popular and every time he films a drama or movie, he will always spark rumours with the female lead. Chun said very straight out: “I won’t be affected by these rumours, sparking rumours actually means that everytime I film something, I always have a good relationship with the cast/crew, that’s why the media will create such rumours. When facing these rumours, I will not avoid or not reply, like this time with Charlene, when we see the reports and articles about us, we will laugh together, because we are really only good friends.”

And during this FM celebration, Fahrenheit split up into 2 groups – Chun and Calvin, Jiro and Aaron. Chun and Calvin in the morning and Jiro and Aaron in the evening. Hence, this caused speculation that it is because Chun and Jiro do not get along, that is why the groups have been arranged like this. However, Chun clarified: “We get these rumours because of the media’s ‘help’, really, we get along fine, and it is our management company that arranges the groups and schedules.”

Chun, who is packed with work this year, and also being a boss himself, many people are curious about his earnings. He replied, “My earnings is not as much as people think, I don’t even have more than $10million. Although some work opportunities are very good, the earnings are not that much. Frankly speaking, if there is a good work opportunity, I will accept it even if it means losing money.” But what if the work opportunity is like Tony Leung’s “Lust, Caution”? Will Chun, with his amazing body, accept it? Chun modestly replied, “I won’t actually give myself any restrictions, but if it is something like Tony Leung filming ‘Lust, Caution’, then first of all, my acting must be as good as his, or my status is as high as his. Right now, I think that there is huge room for improvement in my acting, and also the concern raised with stripping is stereotyping.”

Although many are envious with Chun’s luck with work opportunities, Chun says that the entertainment circle is not his most important thing. He says: “The thing I am most interested in is fitness career. It’s not that I am not interested in the entertainment circle, but sometimes I will feel very unhappy because every year, I can only spend one month with my family. Often I can only keep in touch with them via phone and even on the phone, I will often feel very sad when talking to them.” Chun says that he has spoken with his management company and next year he will take a long holiday with no work to spend some quality time with his family. Calvin also nods and adds: “It has been 3 years since we entered the entertainment circle, but our holidays have never been longer than 5 days.”

In their upcoming concert, the 4 members of Fahrenheit have each planned solo dances and this caused curiosity about whether Fahrenheit will split up. Calvin expressed that Fahrenheit will not split up, but each of them will develop in different areas, like himself, when he saw Selina’s hosting success, he is also interested in trying out hosting. As for Chun, he hopes that he can get the chance to release his own book, because he himself really enjoys reading. However, although he has a good body, he is not planning on releasing a pictorial book but rather considering about sharing his own opinions in his book. Also, as he loves food, he hopes he has the chance to accept a food show. He believes that has very good persuasion skills when it comes to food.

And in response to S.H.E’s earlier comments about all wanting to marry at 30, Calvin smiled and said, “If I was a girl, I will also want to marry before 30!” As he is still currently single, Calvin has his own hopes when it comes to relationships but he will not force anything. His planed marriage age has also shifted to 32 years, instead of 30, due to work. As for Chun, he says that even his fans are worried for him and hoping that he will get a girlfriend soon. He himself wishes to marry before 35, because he loves children and hopes to become a father as soon as possible. He also caringly said: “Also, if she is the same age as me, then having to be a old mother is also not fair on her.”

Jiro's leg crippled, went to see Orthopedics. Another injured member in Fahrenheit.

Jiro's leg crippled, went to see Orthopedics.
Another injured member in Fahrenheit

Everyone in Fahrenheit is injured, but because tickets for the 2 hongkong concerts are already all sold out, they can only go all out

There are only 9 days left to Fahrenheit's asia tour first stop, Hong Kong. However, problems arose concerning Jiro's knee ligament,and these influenced his dancing. Yesterday, he was accompanied by staff members [工作人员] to Tai Da[台大] hospital for examinations. After inspection, it was discovered to be semilunar cartilage separation. [半月软骨剥离]. Yet, because the concerts are coming really soon, Jiro can only depend on painkillers for now. He is the second member to have injuries on his leg after Arron Yan.

Yesterday morning, Jiro wore casual clothing and purposely kept on low profile, arriving at Tai da hospital. Since the Orthopedics section was filled up with elderly patients, Jiro got eyed by them because he was dressed fashionably. It is reported that lately, while practicing for Fahrenheit's concert, Jiro often had tumbling movements and so on. His knee has been hurt for many days and it was of no help when he went to the osteopath for massage. This was why Jiro went to the hospital to examine his knee. The doctor advised him not to do strenuous exercise, and the best is to stay at the hospital and plan for operation. However after the operation, he needs to rest for 1 month and to him, it is considered mission impossible. The orthopedics doctor in charge 吴基铨 of Lin Kou Cheng Geng Hospital[林口长庚医院] said that semilunar cartilage links the thigh and calf, increases the bone contacted area and reduces the pressure spot. This injury is often seen, but whether surgery is needed or not depends on the seriousness of it.

Besides Jiro, Arron who previously operated on his right knee ligament is still recovering. Tall and skinny Calvin Chen keeps having digestive problems. Also, Chun needs to wear contacts constantly and these caused the contracts to crack in his right eye. Therefore, his right eye is dry easily. We can only say that everyone in Fahrenheit is injured, but tickets for the hong kong concerts are already all sold out, so they have to go all out for it.
