Lately, people have been asking me "What's Up with my Chinese name?" So I figured I'd better send out this message in an attempt to clear the air.
From when I was born to all of my life up until now, my Chinese name has been 吴 振 宇 Wu Zhen Yu. However, since I entered the entertainment industry in Asia almost nine years ago, people have always had a good laugh wit...Read more
Recently, my friend and fellow CAL alum Holman Chin asked me if I was interested in doing a photoshoot for his new magazine entitled The Playeur Journal. I asked him what was the subject matter of the publication, and he summed it up as "Playboy meets Maxim."

Coming to Prague was definitely a major highlight for me. It was my first time in Eastern Europe, and I couldn't stop marveling at all the history and culture. Too bad for the teams, production crew, and me, we wouldn't have enough time to really explore this truly spectacular place, and I would love to come back one day on my own time.

In fact, most of the cameramen and so...Read more
First and foremost, I'd like to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas this holiday season. For me, I almost didn't have the opportunity to spend my Christmas with my family and friends due to work commitments in China, but I was able to make it back in time.

Episode Four was a tough leg for all of us. Right after we waited late into the wee hours for Brett and Kinar to arrive at the previous pit stop, my host crew had to race off to Rotorua to prepare for the arrival of the eight remaining teams. We didn't get any sleep at all and went straight to work. I was having a difficult time remembering my lines, and we were wondering how much mor...Read more
