《泳闯琴关》No Limits 故事大纲 Story Synopsis

WARNING! CONTAIN SPOILERS!



自7月7日起,每逢星期一至五,晚上9点 Starting 7 July 2010, Mon – Fri, 9pm

游泳欣人如其名,热爱游泳,父亲游山年轻时是飞鱼,因此她立志成为游泳国手,努力苦练,但比赛时她往往因紧张而游不出佳绩,屡战屡败,但乐观的她依旧勇往直前。泳欣两岁时,母亲忽不告而别,游山从此性情大变,过着招摇撞骗的生活。幸好泳欣有前队友夫妇欧英雄与白娜娜照顾,两人有一个当帆船教练的儿子欧耀阳,泳欣暗恋他,并视他为偶像崇拜。

泳欣偶遇拉大提琴的王宇乐,对音乐一窍不通的泳欣不禁陶醉在他的音乐当中。宇乐的父亲很支持儿子追求音乐的理想,但因母亲王若云是黑市夫人,所以在父亲猝逝后,母子便陷入困境,被逼住进三房式组屋,并和泳欣成了邻居。游山受不了宇乐练习大提琴时的干扰,与王若云不时斗气,而泳欣也无法忍受宇乐是个生活白痴,百忙中常抽空去帮他们做家务。

从国外回来的Fei加入泳队,Fei属天才型泳手,成绩斐然,泳欣因此鞭策自己更加努力。Fei有一个热爱帆船运动的弟弟陈方,而教练就是耀阳。Fei自视甚高,但和耀阳接触后,开始对他有了好感,主动接近。

Fei的母亲Yvonne在泳会出现,原来她就是泳欣失踪二十年的妈妈。Yvonne在接触泳欣的过程中,建立了感情。泳欣也发现Yvonne是自己的亲生母亲,Yvonne竟佯称当年是遭游山遗弃,造成泳欣对游山有所误解。英雄看不过眼,说出Yvonne抛夫弃女的所作所为,泳欣得知真相后,因感怀身世而变得无心训练。此时宇乐陪在泳欣身边,拉琴帮她排解压力,让泳欣重新站了起来。

宇乐开始融入组屋生活,但是女友许嘉宜却很不自在。这时好朋友Thunder从国外回来,Thunder在演奏界小有名气,让宇乐觉得自己成就不如他,因此更加日夜苦练。善于制造惊喜的Thunder,更是让嘉宜有些意乱情迷。宇乐不忍母亲辛苦赚钱养家,终放下尊严,到高级酒廊演奏,意志却逐渐消沉。泳欣发现宇乐的琴声似乎少了以往的感情,为了鼓励宇乐,说出自己永远都会是他的忠实听众,宇乐受到鼓舞,振作起来。

宇乐发现嘉宜移情别恋,横刀夺爱的是自己的好友Thunder,他一时无法接受事实,还因此意外导致暂时失聪。一连串的打击再度把宇乐击倒了。泳欣以自己的经历来勉励宇乐。游山和王若云也放下宿怨,一起帮助宇乐熬过难关。

耀阳和Fei日久生情,他竟想脚踏两船。得知耀阳背着自己和Fei交往,泳欣难以接受,失去动力,游泳成绩更加不理想,她开始考虑是否放弃自己最喜欢的游泳。Fei也不满耀阳对待感情不认真,提出分手,耀阳落得两头空。

Yvonne看中泳会的地皮,提出收购献议。董事们觉得泳会多年来栽培不出国手,同意卖地,英雄夫妇大力反对。Yvonne得知耀阳陷入商业失信罪,意图利用金钱诱使耀阳支持出让泳会,但耀阳不为所动。Fei痛心Yvonne的不择手段,不惜和她反目。泳欣对游泳的热忱再度被激起,她联合Fei,与董事们达成协议,只要在泳赛赢得锦标,泳会就获得保留。Yvonne百般阻挠,游山重出江湖,将自己的经验倾囊相授,泳欣和Fei是否能够排除万难,突破自己,争取佳绩,成功抢救泳会?

宇乐终了解到学习音乐,最重要的是享受过程,放下压力的他心情变得放松,与此同时他却接获知名乐团的邀请函,终于当上演奏家。正当泳欣和宇乐有所发展之际,嘉宜和Thunder的感情游戏也宣告终止,嘉宜想要重投宇乐怀抱...

泳欣再度跳下泳池,因为只有游泳能让自己无拘无束,摆脱一切的烦恼...,Fei和耀阳再次相遇,两人是否能够重续旧缘...!

You Yongxin, as her name suggests, is an avid swimmer. She is determined to become a national swimmer like her father, You Shan, who was helmed as the "flying fish" in his swimming days. Yet, no matter how hard Yongxin trains, she still underperforms at competitions due to nervousness. Despite numerous failures, the ever-optimistic Yongxin remains steadfast in achieving her dream.

When Yongxin was two years old, her mother walked out on the family. Since then, You Shan became a changed man - he began to lead the life of a conman. Fortunately, You Shan's former teammate, Ou Yingxiong and his wife, Bai Nana, took Yongxin under their wing. The couple has a son, Ou Yaoyang, who is a sailing coach. Yongxin not only idolizes Yaoyang but is also secretly in love with him.

Meeting cellist Wang Yule in a chanced encounter left Yongxin, who knows nothing about music, completely mesmerized by his music. Yule's father was very supportive of his music career but when his father passed away suddenly, he and his mother were plunged into financial difficulties as his mother, Wang Ruoyun, was his father's mistress. They were forced to move into a 3-room HDB flat and thus, became neighbors with Yongxin. Disturbed by Yule's cello practices, You Shan often finds himself at loggerheads with Wang Ruoyun. In spite of her hectic schedule, Yongxin takes time off to help the Wangs with their housework as Yule knows nothing about it.

Fei has just returned from abroad and joins the swimming team. Naturally gifted, Fei chalks up impressive results in the pool, which made Yongxin train herself even harder. Fei's younger brother, Chen Fang, is a sailing enthusiast who trains under Yaoyang. Fei, who thinks highly of herself, finds herself attracted to Yaoyang and takes the initiative to get close to him.

Fei's mother, Yvonne, shows up at the swimming club. She is Yongxin's biological mother who had vanished 20 years ago. After coming into contact with Yongxin, Yvonne developed kindred feeling towards her. When Yongxin realizes that Yvonne is her mother, the latter claims she was abandoned by You Shan. As a result, Yongxin gets the wrong idea about her father. Yingxiong sets the record straight by pointing out that it was Yvonne who walked out on them instead. Troubled by her family background, Yongxin is not able to concentrate on her training. Yule helped Yongxin to get back on her feet by playing the cello for her and staying by her side.

Yule adapts to living in a HDB flat but his girlfriend, Xu Jiayi, feels out of place. Yule's good friend, Thunder, returns from overseas, having made a name for himself as a music conductor. Not wanting to be outshined by Thunder's success, Yule trains even harder. Jiayi gradually finds herself attracted to Thunder as the latter is full of surprises. Seeing how hard his mother works for the family, Yule decided to put aside his pride and performs at a high-class lounge to ease his mother's burden. However, he soon becomes despondent. Yongxin noticed that Yule's cello playing has become emotionally detached. To encourage him, Yongxin reveals that she will always be his devoted listener. Heartened, Yule braces up.

Yule discovers that Jiayi has shifted her affections to another man and that man is none other than Thunder, his good friend. As a result of his inability to accept the truth, Yule loses his hearing temporarily. Yule collapses after being dealt with one blow after another. Yongxin relates her own experience to motivate Yule. Even their parents, You Shan and Wang Ruoyun, put aside their differences to help Yule tide over the crisis.

Yaoyang and Fei developed feelings for each other over time. Yaoyang hopes to have his cake and eat it too by two-timing Fei and Yongxin. Yongxin loses her motivation to swim as she is unable to accept Yaoyang seeing Fei behind her back. You Shan is arrested by the police for fraud again. Mentally and physically exhausted, Yongxin loses her motivation to swim. In the face of her dismal results, Yongxin considers giving up swimming. Seeing how he treats matters of the heart so frivolously, Fei breaks up with Yaoyang, who ends up losing both girls.

Yvonne eyes the plot of land on which the swimming club stands and makes an offer for it. With not a single national swimmer produced after all these years, the board of directors agreed to the sale while Yingxiong and his wife vehemently opposed.

Yvonne sets Yaoyang up, causing him to commit criminal breach of trust. He is forced to convince his parents to support the sale of the land. Deeply hurt by her mother's unscrupulousness, Fei falls out with Yvonne. Yongxin's passion for swimming rekindled and together with Fei, they joined forces to save the swimming club. They made an agreement with the board - the swimming club will not be sold if the swimming club wins the championship title. With Yvonne setting up all kinds of obstacles in their way, will Yongxin and Fei be able to overcome and rise above the challenges to successfully save the swimming club?

Yule finally realized that enjoying the process of learning is the most important aspect of music. Having learnt to let go of the past, Yule becomes more relaxed. At the same time, he receives an invitation from a renowned orchestra and finally attains his goal of being a music conductor. Just as love is blossoming between Yule and Yongxin, Jiayi and Thunder ends their relationship. Jiayi hopes to return to Yule.

As only swimming can help her forget her troubles, Yongxin returns to the pool once again. Fei and Yaoyang bumps into each other, will they be able to re-kindle their romance?

陈靓瑄强调并非完全退出娱乐圈

陈靓瑄强调并非完全退出娱乐圈


陈靓瑄已获本地大学录取,将在8月正式报到攻读为期三年的商业行政系。(图/档案照)
6月底约满,陈靓瑄:“离开不代表陈靓瑄RIP”。

已获本地大学录取、将在8月正式报到攻读为期三年的商业行政系的陈靓瑄很快将卸下演员身份。离开的日子逼近,她说,自己带着轻松心情和美丽回忆离开。“其实也不是说离开就代表陈靓瑄RIP(安息,指完全退出),应该算是陈靓瑄人生的一个顿号。如果有好的作品或机会,或适合的亮相机会,我还是会参与。”

至于中国女富豪韩媛媛有意设立经纪公司,安排本地艺人到中国发展,外传陈靓瑄是被她相中的艺人之一。但,她说:“我也是从记者口中得知有这件事。”不论是传闻前后,对方没有找她谈过,至于以后,她表示,虽然机会要把握,但届时会不会为海外机会而放弃学业,现在真的很难说。

她前天出席最后一部作品《泳》的记者会,在新剧中“独战”黄俊雄和戴阳天两大当红小生。问她和谁比较来电,她婉转用两人的角色来回答:“和宇乐(戴阳天)比较有feel,可能因为我把自己投入角色,觉得擅长音乐的人比较有魅力。”

在《泳》中她扮演泳手,擅长游蝶、蛙与自由各式,她说,自己的蝶式游得不怎么样,因为练习时间不长。她幽自己一默,说:“希望到时观众看戏时,我的蝶泳不会像是苍蝇就好。”

Felicia Chin: Stronger and more confident now

As she packs her bags and gets ready to leave the hill—temporarily—for her books later this year, Felicia Chin throws a mini look back at her time spent on Caldecott Hill


Before she goes from being Caldecott Hill Princess to full-time book nerd in August, we catch up with Felicia Chin at her "final" press conference for upcoming Ch 8 drama series, No Limits.

Living up to her character's sporty persona in the series, Felicia was an effervescent confection of sunshine and roses at Changi Beach Club on Tuesday. Unlike her usual glam getups of party frocks and towering heels, she was clothed in sports gear and running shoes, basking in her new sun-kissed tan -- no thanks to the countless laps and hours spent under the unforgiving sun at the swimming pool.

Flanked by her two onscreen love interests, Dai Yang Tian and Elvin Ng, Felicia made her entrance together with fellow cast members Tracy Lee, Rebecca Lim, Yuan Shuai, Pan Ling Ling, Chen Tianwen, and Wang Yuqing.

With No Limits being Felicia's swansong project on the googlebox -- before she returns to university -- this perfectionist was apprehensive about her performance and confessed that she was afraid of being a letdown.


Plagued by bouts of throbbing headache throughout the drama's production period, Felicia revealed that she had difficulty vocalizing her lines and struggled to cope with it.

Speaking with a tinge of frustration during an interview with xinmsn, she said, "I am honestly afraid of disappointing the producer and storywriter with my role. My health condition wasn't in its best state and we were on really tight schedule for this show.

"I tried my best but I know I am capable of achieving better. That's why I'm feeling a little sorry about it," said the earnest starlet who was heartened by the outpour of warmth and encouragement shown by the production team and fellow cast mates.


No longer the ingénue rookie from yesteryears, Felicia's interview was punctuated with long pauses and careful reflections. It has been seven years since she first joined MediaCorp in 2003 after winning Star Search (the very same year), and it's not hard to see how much she has grown overtime from her candid confessions and self-depreciating comments.

Amidst the makeup techniques, photography tips and acting skills picked up from her time spent in MediaCorp, the 27-year-old reckons she has learnt how to be a better person from trials and tribulations that once stood in her path. That to her, is the most important lesson she'll walk away with.


With a relatively inconspicuous rise to fame after joining in 2003, this hard-work-pays-off princess had her fair share of flak last year when speculations were rife with her plastic surgery attempts. Stepping out of the negativity and soldiering on, the actress is glad that she did not lose herself in the process.

Looking back in retrospect, she said, "I may fall but I have the courage to stand up again. The most important is that I am stronger and have more confidence in myself now. I have also made the most important friends in my life here."

Smiling, albeit a little ruefully, she poignantly continued, "Some people may like me, some other may not like me -- and I have learnt how to love myself more from this. I can accept differing opinions from people and I thank them for noticing me instead of feeling angry. It makes things easier and happier."

Call the above statement a eulogy of sorts if you must, but we're just glad Felicia has got her mojo back.

Fans of the princess can take heart that the former-VJC student and soon-to-be undergrad still has that burning passion for acting within her.

We know this has been repeated like a broken tape recorder since news of her impending departure broke out, but putting Felicia's words in perspective, "This is not goodbye," folks.

陈靓瑄新戏扮泳手 惋惜两帅哥未秀身材

·陈靓瑄扮演泳手,背部长肉肩变阔。
·黄俊雄开朗大剌剌,戴阳天低调细心。


黄俊雄(左起)、陈靓瑄、戴阳天,在新剧有感情对手戏。

6月底约满新传媒的花旦陈靓瑄,已经被本地一所大学录取,8月正式报到,攻读为期三年的商业行政系。

陈靓瑄昨天出席在新传媒的最后一部电视剧《泳闯琴关》记者会,接受访问时,要求记者为她就读哪所大学保密,因为她希望开学初期,保持低调,等她感觉比较舒服后,或许才公开学校名称。

之前传中国女富豪韩媛媛有意设立经纪公司,安排本地艺人到中国发展,陈靓瑄是被她看好的其中一名艺人。对此,陈靓瑄说:“听到传言我是一头雾水,因为我从颜天发(明星发型师)那里知道这个人,但并不认识她,也没谈过那些事。”

王昱青变“大肚鱼” 陈天文跳水中芭蕾
当年凭同一类的游泳题材电视剧《小飞鱼》一炮而红的本地电视第一代男偶像王昱青,也参与《泳闯琴关》演出,扮演陈靓瑄的父亲,与扮演前妻的潘玲玲,有不少感情纠葛。

王昱青自嘲演出本剧,当年竖立的偶像形象已经受损,因为身材不复标准的他,当年的“小飞鱼”称号,竟被工作人员戏称为“大肚鱼”、“老肥鱼”,还有人嘲弄他是“读南大”的(肚腩大)。

潘玲玲透露陈天文在剧中有一场惊人头下脚上的演出——水中芭蕾,令人意想不到。陈天文说,几年前他曾在一场电视慈善义演中表演同一个项目,就是那时学到的技术。

袁帅在本剧也有突破,原来他演面善心恶的反派,和戴阳天抢林慧玲,还和后者有吻戏和床戏,同时交出了荧幕初吻和床戏的第一次。林慧玲笑冒冷汗的他:“别看他酷酷的,演亲热戏特别害羞。”

The casts were dressed in their character costume, but sadly, there weren’t any bare-bodies or swimwear! hahaha.

However, even without those body hugging clothes they still look as gorgeous as before – Felicia Chin looking all energetic and sporty in her sports shorts and jacket, Dai yang Tian looking refined and charming in his dark coloured suit, Elvin Ng looking just like a 阳光男孩 in the white and grey combi, Tracy Lee glowing in her golden tanned skin, Rebecca Lim looking sweet and demure in her cream coloured top and white skirt, Yuan Shuai looking really cool in his all black suit with his shades…

I took a lot of photos, but I can’t possibly upload all of them up here. so, please go to our Facebook page for more photos!

Felicia Chin talks about Wang Yu Qing in No Limits (泳闯琴关)

王昱清为新戏露点 陈靓瑄赞他有魅力


王昱清为新戏露点,笑称自己是老肥鱼,剧中乖女儿陈靓瑄赞爸爸有魅力!

王昱清在新传媒8频道新戏《泳闯琴关》中,饰演不务正业、四处招摇撞骗的游山。不过,为了帮女儿泳儿(陈靓瑄饰)夺得泳赛冠军,他之后重出江湖当游泳教练。

相信许多读者都难忘20多年前本地第一代偶像王昱清在《小飞鱼》 的风采,他这次当然少不了必须下水一展泳姿,颇令人期待。不过,48岁的他对自己的身材,倒是不太满意。

王昱清日前乘拍戏空档接受xinmsn专访时自嘲:"他们不再叫我小飞鱼,而是老肥鱼!为了这部戏,我放下身段,露点给你们看,还顶着这个大肚腩。"

其实,王昱清最近在《想握你的手》中也露点,但牺牲没那么大。

他透露,当自己要求为一些游泳镜头安排替身时,剧组还无法置信,感叹20年前对小飞鱼的印象完全破灭了!王昱清解释,自己游看起来没那么威风,也不可能一人游一整天,各种游泳姿势也做不到。

问他是否想恢复以前的风范,他叹:"我很想很想!老实说,我看到他们的6粒,很羡慕,但无论我怎么练都不行,很辛苦。"

王昱清说,以前自己也是有6块腹肌的,无奈中年发福。此外,离开新传媒后,因为不用上电视而放纵,他比较少运动,一天甚至可以吃6餐。现在为了形象,他已经尽量少吃。

陈靓瑄:他身材保持得好

王昱清在剧中与陈靓瑄演父女,也是女儿的游泳教练,两人有不少对手戏。陈靓瑄也直言,在这部戏的演员中,和王昱清尬戏最有意思。

王昱清说,两人曾经合作过,但互动不多,所以这次刚开始时难免有些尴尬、拘谨。不过,到了后期,两人感情变好,父女的感觉就出来了。

"靓瑄真是一个好演员、很乖。我不舍得在戏里责备她,现实中也是一样。"


对于要在年轻女演员面前脱,王昱清显得颇不自在。他笑说,自己比女生还扭捏。而且,有一场跳舞的戏,自己肢体僵硬。

不过,乖女儿陈靓瑄倒是很捧爸爸的场:"他是有魅力的!身材keep得很好!"

听到女儿的赞赏,王昱清非常高兴,还笑说:"戴阳天、黄俊雄算什么!"

王昱清透露,在拍完这部戏后,打算开始锻炼:"不是说要比身材,而是为健康着想,年纪大了,应该要注意一下。"

他坦言,羡慕郑各评的身材,但对自己有信心,忍不住呛声:"接下来就是我了!郑各评,等着看!"

《泳闯琴关》将从7月7日起,每逢星期一至五晚上9时,通过8频道播出。

戴阳天自嘲拉琴声像砍树 欲在各国炒楼


戴阳天为新戏苦学大拉琴,他自嘲拉琴声音难听如砍树!他也透露,最近有意炒楼,新加坡、中国和日本的房产都在研究。

在新传媒8频道新戏《泳闯琴关》中,戴阳天饰演大提琴手王宇乐,他性格比较闷、不爱说话,起初家庭美满,但之后父亲过世,女友也移情别恋,所幸遇到了乐观的游泳儿(陈靓瑄饰)。

戴阳天小时候是管乐队成员,对弦类乐器不太熟悉,这次为了角色,特地上了约8堂课,学习拉琴的姿势和指法。

老师夸阳阳有拉琴天分

日前,戴阳天接受xinmsn专访时直言,大提琴应该是所有乐器中最难的,自己练习的时间也不够。

他说,专业的乐手一天通常练习6小时,但自己连正确的姿势都不懂,所以老师不建议他拉那么久。

不过,虽然每堂课才两小时,但已经令戴阳天觉得很恐怖。他说:"因为全神贯注去练习,太多技术要掌握,所以每次都很累。"因为必须维持姿势,他也得忍受肌肉的酸痛。

虽然大提琴老师对戴阳天赞赏有嘉,夸他是这方面的天才,但戴阳天自嘲:"我拉琴的声音实在太难听了,真的像砍树一样,所有人都受不了!在拍摄后面的阶段,因为我要跟着音乐拉,导演都会在我的琴上粘胶布。"

就算是把琴带回家练,为了不要吵到邻居,戴阳天也会骑着脚车到附近的山坡上去练习。

戴阳天带着歉意说,有些拉琴的特写镜头,必须借助于替身,但替身并不知道角色的心情,所以他对他们会有些要求,导致口气可能不是很好。

意外陈靓瑄要暂休 阳阳:她长大了

《泳闯琴关》是陈靓瑄离开新传媒去求学前的最后一部戏,戴阳天与她在戏中有感情戏。

对于好友的决定,戴阳天说:"其实,我觉得她长大了。她是我来之后认识的第一位朋友,在我的印象里,她没有这样的一种想法,这是让我很意外的。"

他表示,身为一个朋友,他不会去考虑陈靓瑄的决定是对还是错。他认为,有想法就是正确的,所以会支持她。

最近,戴阳天也与陈靓瑄聊到各自的未来计划:"她的想法是蛮鲜明的,而且知道自己要些什么,我蛮为她开心,我也相信她只是暂别。"

戴阳天透露,自己在拍完《泳闯琴关》后,7月份会回中国上两个星期的表演课,已经找了老师来进行一对一教学,8月才回来开拍《破天网》。

记者问他是否受到陈靓瑄的影响,戴阳天解释,自己一向来都有这个想法,只是一直没有时间配合。

戴阳天也会乘机在中国办妥手续,好让成为新加坡永久居民的申请能尽快被批准。

代言多赚够本 炒楼兴致勃勃

戴阳天是代言新天王,目前手上有5个代言,日前有报道指出,他觉得现在合租房子不划算,想要买房子。

记者向戴阳天求证,他即刻否认,表示并没有要搬家,和房东处得很好。不过,他倒是透露,自己对投资房产和股票非常有兴趣。

"房产是我在来新加坡以前就很关心的,我对金融方面一直很感兴趣,到每个城市,都会去多留意他们的房产和股票。"

他表示,自己来新以后,即开了股票户口,也会常上一些金融方面的课程。

那想要投资本地房产吗?戴阳天笑说:"其实,最近吸引我的地方很多,所以我一直很矛盾。新加坡的地产都很稳定增长,中国的2、3线城市也上得很快,价位比较便宜。"

他继续滔滔不绝,表示真正要投资的人,对房子的要求非常高,要找到一间好房子,真的不是一件容易的事。

"如果有机会的话,当放假也好,当市场调查也好,我希望能到中国二、三线城市去看一看。也有朋友说,东京最近的房价掉得很厉害,所以很多地方都很有吸引力,一直在考虑之中。"

不过,戴阳天坦言目前资本不够,还没有经济能力去买本地房产,需要一定的机会去累积储蓄。

现在是他的参考阶段,会努力去学习各种相关知识。或许,戴阳天会因此想再接再厉接代言,往买楼目标迈进吧!

《泳闯琴关》将从7月7日起,每逢星期一至五晚上9时,通过8频道播出。

Dai Yang Tian talks about Felicia's departure from Mediacorp

Zhang Yaodong turns a new "Paige" in reel life


Actor bids farewell to screen partner and rumoured girlfriend Felicia Chin and talks about the new leading ladies in his life

It is official. On-screen couple and rumoured lovebirds Felicia Chin and Zhang Yaodong are bidding each other farewell.

After more than two years of being romantically-linked to Felicia Chin, the actor is now ready to move on to a new leading lady. The lady in question is actress Paige Chua as the duo pair up in new Channel 8 melodramatic thriller The Score.

In it, Yaodong plays a scion of a wealthy conglomerate, Luo Shun Bang, who falls head over heels in love with his company's employee, Zhou Tian Lan (played by Paige Chua).

Speaking to xinmsn at the lensing ceremony of The Score yesterday, the handsome actor admitted that he is looking forward to acting with the former model.

The drama also marks his first extensive collaboration with Paige, whom he only had a brief encounter with, in a supporting role in earlier 2008 drama Crime Busters x2.

Although Yaodong has yet to meet his co-star - who's holidaying in Australia currenty - he's looking forward to seeing her new image for the drama.

Besides Paige, Yaodong had also worked with fellow Malaysian actress Tracy Lee in The Best Things In Life.

Both were touted by local media as the up-and-coming artistes of Caldecott Hill.

When asked about his thoughts on the "new generation princesses", the 32-year-old appeared pensive and paused, before ditching out advice.

"I'd think the qualities a "princess" should possess would be humility, determination and diligence," he said.

The chiselled-faced hunk quipped, "Humility is the most important. After all, life is like a drama. You can only improve your acting skills when people around you share their experiences with you."

What about his alleged girlfriend, Felicia Chin's departure from acting, we asked. What are his thoughts on her decision?

"A turn in things might prove to be a blessing in disguise," was his terse reply.

The strapping 1.81m tall Yaodong added, "Who knows, perhaps some studying and time away would help her become more mature and aid in her acting when she returns."

The bubbly female champion of the Star Search 2003 talent competition had earlier announced that she would be hitting the books after her contract with MediaCorp ends this month.

So, would Yao Dong be preparing anything special for Felicia?

"If time allows, I might meet up with Felicia, together with a couple of celebrity friends like Dawn Yeoh and Jesseca Liu for a farewell party of some sorts. We are good friends," he said.

Baywatch at ECP!!!

It was a hot afternoon at the sailing club. I was there to take some photos of the hunk and babes in their sporty attire and hmm, may be even bare-bodied.



Her sweet smile :)



Plot: Felicia bring tea to the table but accidently spills them over.



Surely our princess manage to make the tea spill, she even broke the cup! We know it was an accident Felicia :D



Director: We shouldn’t give Felicia any pressure. We shouldn’t tell her that this is the last cup that we have!



This is what the crew did just to prevent another cup from breaking…



Tying her laces, preparing for a run



Elvin: Aiya! Tracy: Yes! Victory is mine!!



“Losing to a girl? NO WAY!”



This is the man that prespires A LOT!



Tired after a run yea?



Doesn’t Elvin look like an elder brother giving his younger sis (Tracy) a pat on her head after a super duper long run??



Watcha pointing at, Elvin?



He is really shy to show his 8 pacs…



Baywatch?



“Must I really do this now?”



He is kinda lucky to do this scene under a scorching hot sun.



Elvin threw his pants at us, but no one is strong enough to throw it back to him, so……



The expression when she saw Elvin took off his shorts…….. in the water. heh.





The last 2 pictures showed his really super hot body :)

So, not enough of these “seriously oh-so-hawt!” photos??

Then here’s a video for you!
(not to worry ladies and gentlemen, this is rated PG.)



All right, first it was charming DYT playing the cello and now we have hot bod Elvin Ng skinny-dipping…
Tell me, who do you prefer???

Felicia Chin soaps up for a raunchy car wash


SINGAPORE: "The car wash scene?" asked Felicia Chin absently when I quizzed her about a scene in her upcoming sports drama "No Limits", one that was rumoured to be pretty raunchy.

It was also a scene with her in it.

"It was like something you see in an MTV! There's cat calls and men looking at you, with beautiful sports cars, and you wearing so little ... washing the cars."

"I don't blame people for thinking too much. All the women were wearing very 'ideal clothes' (read: not very much at all) for the scene."

Was that how the title came about? "No Limits"?

Noting that it looked like a scene right off the pages of men's magazine FHM, the 26-year-old quipped that the writers must have done a lot of 'research' to get the scene looking like it did.

"I'm supposed to do some sexy moves for the scene. But [in the show] my character can't dance very well, so don't expect too huo la (hot) stuff from me," she said as she cracked up.

While it sounds like a shrewd move to guarantee high ratings (I think it probably will), Chin explained that the skin-baring scene actually served to flesh out her character.

The bubbly actress plays an aspiring competitive swimmer with the kindest heart, who would do anything to help the people she loves, including lathering up a sports car to help out her squeeze.

Sure it's not because she lost a bet in the show? The last time that happened was in 2004's "The Champion" and she was running in a bikini down Orchard Road.

"It's not because of a bet!" she said as she broke into laughter.

"It was really [about] her wanting to help the special guy in her life and this is the only thing she could do for him at that time," she said.

Chin's screen persona is stuck in a love triangle with Elvin Ng's sunny sailing instructor character and Dai Yang Tian's brooding cellist. So who will be the 'special guy' she mentioned?

Prince Brooding

While viewers will have to catch the show to find out who she ends up with, those of you who want to know which guy Chin would actually date in real life are in luck.

"I'd pick the moody broody kind," she said, giggling like a schoolgirl.

How odd. Why would Chin, who describes herself as "an athletic person" who "loved sports", pick a guy that would probably prefer to stay indoors and play his instrument than go jogging with her?

"I guess opposites attract ... that's something that is even more special to the relationship," she announced. "Music appeals to me in a different way."

"I actually like to exercise alone because I feel it is a good break whereby you can have more time for yourself ... be more in tune with yourself. I think everyone needs that.

"Sometimes you need a few personal moments."

So has she found her Prince Brooding?

Obviously, she can't be wanting for choice, men must be breaking down her door to date the pixie-faced actress!

"The only time I get to romance is in the drama," she sighed. "My door is still intact, very intact."

I commented that she must have really high standards to keep the riff raff out of her life, and she agreed.

"I have very strong doors," she said with a knowing nod.

"But I guess if you have the key you can open it anytime," said Chin with a wry smile.

"No Limits" debuts July 1, weekdays at 9pm, on Channel 8.
