  John Legend

  
  
  Thanks to the Alivenotdead team, I got to watch one of my favourite singers - John Legend in Macau. He was absolutely amazing, I was really disappointed at the small no. of people that went. I would've thought that he'd be more popular in Asia given his talent and abilities, so if you don't know him, check him out. He sings beautifully and with a lot of soul. After the concert, my friends and I went to the after party by the Venetian pool. Reggie was an awesome DJ, and a dance floor was built across the pool - how cool is that! A bunch of us ended up staying the night since we missed the boats, Cara, Jesper, Yalun and I ate dim sum at 6am at the Casino restaurant. I have to say, I'm getting way too old for these early morning dim sum gigs, nonetheless, they were good times!
  
  
  
  
  
  

  Bey Logan's Wedding

  
  

  Bey Logan is a wonderful man, and a wonderfully married man indeed :). I was honored to attend his wedding on the 7th of May and he is now officially married to wonder-woman Elizabeth! They were so adorably in love together. Elizabeth was beautiful as ever, Bey was nervous as ever (and sweet, especially when he sang 'you are always on my mind' and I met Australia's very own diva Kate Ceberano (Bey's sister). She is an amazing singer! Full of heart, feeling, emotion and greatness! I had so much fun.
  
  

  
  

  A rather embarrassing story from the event was when Bey told me to get up to sing Eternal Flame. How could I say no to the groom right? What I didn't realise was that Richie would be 'acting' it out! I was trying soooo hard not to look at him and laugh, when he yelled 'Celina' after I sung 'Say my name', I tripped over my own tongue thinking there was some emergency! I was totally caught off guard and now on youtube...  It was hilarious nonetheless.

  I also had the honors to sit next to Maggie Q, she is such a gorgeous woman and a very nice one indeed. She flew all the way to HK just to celebrate this big day with Bey and Elizabeth!

  
  

  

  
  

  Events

  
  

  Below are some events I went to recently, I've been to a lot more, but unfortunately didn't bring my camera with me. You see, it's really difficult to take photos, in my opinion. For one, I'm usually holding too small a handbag. Secondly, it's embarrassing to go shooting away. Thirdly, I'm usually with good company, and I enjoy talking to them! I just forget to take out my camera until it's too late! Oh well, the best memories are the ones in your head. Talking about events, I went to the Angels and Demons Premiere last night and surprisingly really enjoyed it. The book is still better but I forgot how wonderfully thought out the ending was. I love Dan Brown! (Sorry... forgot to bring my camera - maybe BC magazine caught a shot?)

  Arrogant Cat

  
  

  Thanks again to Alivenotdead, I have the most amazing clothes sponsor - Arrogant Cat. When I lived in London, I used to go to Arrogant Cat just down the road from me on Kings Road, I love their stuff, it's for women to feel like women. They accentuate your curves, make you feel confident, edgy and ready for anything that comes your way! Check them out at IFC. The leather jackets are amazing!!! All the nice dresses above are from Arrogant Cat!
  
  
  
  

  
  

  Boat Trip

  
  

  What's Hong Kong without going out to sea. Some friends invited me on a boat to go swimming, we had the best time. We went to Lamma Island for seafood in the afternoon and then dinner at Mijas in Stanley. We all sung American Pie, Blowing in the Wind and other classics - soooo much fun! Don't miss out on renting a junk this summer, it's only $3000 and if you get a group of 10 people together, it's absolutely affordable.

  
  
  
  

  Jillian's Graduation

  
  

  My most loved one, my younger sister - Jillian, finally graduated from high school. Yup, she's no longer baby, she's 18! And out of high school! Time flies! I went to her graduation ceremony and embarrassed the hell out of her when I scrambled in front of everyone to take a photo of her receiving her certificate on stage. Everyone broke out in laughter after I screamed 'OVERHERE!!! ONE TWO THREE' as I clumsily took her photo. My excuse later was, 'HEY! At least I got a photo! My graduation photos from LSE all came out blurry because Dad didn't SEIZE the moment!' hahaha So proud of her!
  
  
  

  
  

  My Beloved Cousin

  
  

  My wonderful cousin Greg came to visit us for a month. It was his first ever time in HK, and we took him everywhere! I wish I had a brother! I mean, a real blood brother, I have lots of wonderful guy friends who treat me like a little sister, but I still with I had a real brother, they're so much fun and so easily irritated hehehe. We took Greg for a very different experience - to release fish at north point ferry pier.  My grandmother was very ill at the time and had to undergo open heart quadruple bypass surgery. Luckily she made it through and is now getting better in rehab in the states.
  

  
  
  
  

  My latest development

  
  

  I've been doing a lot of song-writing lately, quite an inspirational time for me. I'm starting to collaborate with other song-writers and arrangers too!
  

  
  

  I also set up an official website for those who want to see my showreel/ information/ biography/ filmography and stuff. I made the site myself on my new mac, so please don't be too harsh on my skills! It's http://www.celina-jade.com

  
  

  Also, I have set up a youtube channel to keep in contact with friends/ fans. If you have any questions or would like to get in touch, I'd be happy to answer them on video for you when I have time. Check out he official CelinaJade channel! http://www.youtube.com/user/CELINAJADEvids
  
  Try not to laugh at me, it's really weird talking into a laptop camera.. kinda boring too... hahaha. I just wanted to be more accessible to my fans. If your questions are in English, I will reply in English, if they are in Chinese, I will reply in Chinese. :)
