Rock climbing in Shanghai!
Friday, Nov 13, 2009 1:05AM / Members only
I had to shoot an episode about rock climbing for the international channel the other day.
I only had 1,5 hours of sleep the night before becoz I attended an event in Xiamen and had to catch the first flight back to Shanghai the next day. I will blog about Xiamen next time, but first I would like to share some pictures of the rock climbing!
The TV show is called Shanghai A-Z and there are several hosts for this program.
This time I was paired up with Matt and we went to check out the indoor rock climbing stadium in Shanghai.
Here's one of the coaches showing the viewers how it's done!
Host Matt trying to show off!
This must be his imitation of Spiderman
The key to rock climbing is to use your legs for support as much as possible
Rock climbing is a fun way of toning up your body! A good session of rock climbing will really make you feel you worked out when the soreness hits in the day after.

Don't know what to wear for Halloween?
It's all about accessorizing............
Ladies in black
Bumped into a friend from Holland who dressed up as a crazy gorilla man
Even though I dislike smoking... a lot... I thought these costumes were quite creative!
"Can you spare me a ciggie?"

Wedding mania

Another busy weekend! I hosted a TV show for the international Channel.
Here I am with host Stephen looking for the best hotpot in Shanghai.
This is the northern style hotpot. I love the sesame paste that goes with it!
In this other hotpot place you get your own little hotpot so anyone can have their favorite soupbase.
Filming in the kitchen learning how to make squid balls.
It seems like October and November are very popular months for weddings!
On Saturday I attended the wedding celebration of my close friend Sunny.
It was held at the 4th tallest building in the world, the World Financial Center. The view from there is spectacular!
Sunny and her hubby Jason. Doesn't Sunny look gorgeous!
Every time I go to a wedding, they ask me to sing! Am always working!
This little boy was very serious about 干杯! ( ganbei)
Delicious wedding cake!
World Financial Center
After the wedding celebration some of us to another venue to continue partying!
With all of the choice that's out there, we manage to get either an Iphone or the Nokia E71...
Congrats dear Sunny & Jason!!!!
Sunday - Another wedding!
This time it's Sky & Selina!
Selina can literally kick ass, she is a gold medalist in Wushu!
Selina & Sky look so cute together!
The first thing they asked me as soon as I arrived: sing a song for us!!!
The wedding bands were in this balloon that Sky had to shoot.
Selina introduced me to some other ladies who were all national champions in wushu.

Musical Moments Hong Kong 2009

I don't have the official pictures yet, but here are pictures that I've collected from friends! Most of them are shot by GR Rodis. Just like last year, GR took countless pictures from the show and rehearsals. It's a great remembrance. Musical Moments is truly one of my highlights every year!
The Pig sacrifice
In the dressing room waiting for our call to get on stage!
We opened the show with "We Will Rock You" and I sang "Somebody To Love" straight after that.
Robert singing "Stars"
The amazingly talented Joanna
Marsha and Loren singing a cute duet
Me singing "Someone Like You"
Tomos Griffiths has played the title role of "The Phantom of the Opera" in the West End.
His rendition of "Music of the Night" was fantastic!!!
Last year Jessica sang a song as the innocent Sandy from "Grease", but this year she turned into a femme fatale for her solo: "All That Jazz"
Absolute perfection, Howard and Joanna singing "Somewhere"
You are the "Dancing Queen"!!! The most fun part was when we walked into the audience during the song!
A selection from the "Rat Pack"
Howard McCrary...no introduction necessary!
A song from the musical "Spamalot". This pose reminds me of the love duet in "Miss Saigon", one of the musicals that Joanna has played in.
Curtain call!
From left to right: Charmaine who came all the way from Las Vegas to watch the concert, Stanley, Marsha, me, Ariel, Joanna, Robert and Tricia.
The after party was held at Muse next to the Cultural Centre.
See ya'll next year!!!!

Preparation for Musical Moments 2009!
Monday, Oct 5, 2009 2:15PM / Members only
We had an amazing show last night at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre!
We worked with the Lifeline Express Charity foundation again and they were able to raise 2.2 million HKD this year!
This time we had very little rehearsals compared to previous years, but it all came together in the end! We had a great time rehearsing and getting to know the new members;Loren, Tomos and Chloe.
It's so great to return to HK and see our HK friends, Stanley & Mary, David & Jovita, Marsha, Jessica, Howard & Ivy and also the gorgeous Joanna who flew in all the way from London. It's such a great honor and pleasure doing this show with all of them.
I will post up some pictures of the rehearsals first! Can't wait to share the show pictures with all of you when I get them!
This is our first band rehearsal:
We also made a trip on the OOCL junk boat to Lamma Island with the cast for some delicious seafood:
Joanna and Loren singing their duet from "Spamalot" for the first time together.
I think Tomos and Marsha were making fun of eachother here!
Jessica going trough her dance routine
Joanna and Howard rehearsing their beautiful duet "Somewhere".
Robert blowing us away with his powerful voice.
We were able to have a dress rehearsal at the cultural centre one day before the show.
My sister Lily, Ida and Christina flew in from Shanghai to watch the concert!
Our mic packs
Producer David Quah checking the stage before the run through
Loren and me just goofing around
Alex passed by the rehearsal as well. There will come a day when people will say: No, I'm not on f&^#ing Alivenotdead!!!
Ater our run through we had a big meeting that lasted till after midnight at Dada in TST.
Show pictures will be up soon!!! Cheers!!!
