Paul Chan's blog : Felicia Chin scored another biggie! 陈靓暄大件事啦!

Yes, Felicia Chin will be big in 2009. Besides starting the year off with ‘The Little Nyonya’ and a big role in ‘The Ultimatum’ blockbuster drama with Zoe and Fann in May, she has just scored another big TV project!

Yes, she will be the main host for Campus SuperStar 3!

This project will seal her status as the indisputable ‘Student’s Princess 学生公主’ as Campus SuperStar is a big hit with students of all ages. Even though Felicia hosted variety shows in the past, CSS3 will be the first time she is hosting a mega show ‘LIVE’.

With CSS3, Felicia will prove she is the Princess who can handle both – acting and hosting. I am sure CSS3 will be even more exciting with Felicia and Pornsak!

Campus SuperStar season 3 will audition in December and competition kicks off in 1st week of January 2009 with a whole new game plan on Channel U. There'll surely be a dedicated blog and everything about it soon..

Paul Chan's Blog : 2009 年 7 公主谁最抢眼 Which 7 Princesses dazzle most?

Judging from the 1st half a year release of the Ch 8’s upcoming dramas in 2009 (see i-Weekly, Ch 8 website and xin.sg for details), I checked out on titles with any of the 7 Princesses in them and presenting to you the updates:

Felicia Chin is doing very well starting the year with a short but important role in ‘The Little Nyonya’. After that, she will be in the super-mega-all-attention focused drama with Zoe Tay and Fann Wong - ‘The Ultimatum’ from May 2009. She will romance with newcomer Zhang Zhen Huan from Ch U's 'U Are the One' fame.

It’s only 1st half of 2009’s dramas, so for fans of 7 Princesses, there’s still chance to see your favorite Princess being cast… After 'The Ultimatum' starring Zoe and Fann in May, there are 6 more 9pm dramas to December 2009 (excluding the 2 dramas with no cast in April/May) which have yet to cast anyone... The above are correct at blog time. There maybe changes in cast or roles as these productions are still many months from now...will update when I hear about new changes..

7 Princesses' Rankings in "FHM 100 Sexiest Women In The World 2008" list

Felicia Chin ranks at No. 3 (last year's rank: 10... raised by 7 places)

An ex-FHM cover girl (bet you didn't realise that), Felicia Chin had moved on to greater things over the past few years, including product endorsements and blockbuster TV roles.

(Trivia: some of you may have recalled Felicia gracing the cover of FHM's January 2005 issue at the time of "The Champions". She is also one of 2 Princesses to have posed for FHM, the other being Rui En.)

The NG Takes Of Love Blossoms

七公主接力曝光 电视迷受不了

白薇秀、刘芷绚、姚懿珊、陈靓瑄、欧萱…然后，又是白薇秀、刘芷绚、姚懿珊、陈靓瑄。新传媒上半年电视剧，七公主“再循环”，接力演！　　

盘点今年上半年的新传媒电视剧，七公主“量”（亮）相最多。不论是7点档或9点档，只要扭开电视，至少会有一名公主与观众“形影不离”。　　

观众和网友看腻了公主演的戏，忍不住上网喊闷，除了电视剧讨论区外，连新传媒高层陈国明的博客也没被“幸免”，成了观众发牢骚的管道。　　

网友嘘声不断，批“too much of all the princess-es. boooo”。

也有指，公主“接力演”，但角色、剧情都没有深入民心，：“公主一部接一部，好像一直在看同一部剧集，很闷。”　　

先是刘芷绚及白薇秀、陈靓瑄分别在去年底起播的《手足II》和《黄金路》为7点和9点档打头阵。　　

《黄》一月中旬结束，紧接着姚懿珊马上接棒，分别在7点档的《美丽的气味》及9点档的《缘之烩》2部剧集坐稳2月电视霸主宝座。　　

3、4月份让观众换换口味，7点档迎来阿旺和野蛮奶奶，为每天的晚餐“加菜”。9点档则继续由公主坐阵，由谢婉谕在《一房半厅一水缸》“接力”。这也是到目前为止，谢婉谕在8频道的唯一作品。　　

进入4月份，公主“再循环”，又在9点档迎来白薇秀在《迷图》中独当一面。　　

5月份公主全面出击，陈靓瑄也“效仿”白薇秀，“撇”其他公主，在长寿剧《心花朵朵开》中轧一脚。9点档就较热闹，刘芷绚、欧萱和姚懿珊聚头在《变奏曲》中飙演技。　　

《绝对佳人》郑惠玉6月份登场，“加利谷山皇后”驾到，公主都得暂时回避。不过迎来7月，又在《球爱大战》中看刘芷绚、姚懿珊和白薇秀穿比基尼比身材。　

一场热辣激战后，欧萱也“不甘示弱”，在《沸腾冰点》里以裸舞吸引观众目光。　　

2008年上半年，除了3、4月7点档和6月份的9点档外，只要一扭开电视，皆能看到公主演戏。

向云也受牵连

七公主“再循环”，究竟是七公主当道，还是新传媒“江郎才尽”？　

前不久，因为陈靓瑄参加《小娘惹》而引起网友热烈讨论，她的曝光率太高。　　

眼光锐利的网友也借题发挥，比较了今年到目前为止播出的电视剧，发现，“演来演去都是七公主”，就连资深演员向云也受“牵连”，无辜被卷入争议中。

网友说，阿嫂角色都只有向云一个人选，不禁提出大问号：“新传媒是不是江郎才尽？”

芮恩谢婉谕产量少

芮恩和谢婉谕今年产量不多，少“量”相，支持她们的粉丝不禁为偶像声援：“谢婉谕和芮恩被遗忘了！”　　

网友是在新传媒高层陈国明的博客上讨论，比较其他公主，芮恩和谢婉谕的演出少得可怜。

网友认为，谢婉谕比陈靓瑄更有娘惹样，演起来会更有说服力，所以提出疑问：“为什么选陈靓瑄不选谢婉谕？”　　

另一方面，芮恩上半年虽然不见踪迹，但她目前与曹国辉合作，拍摄以爱滋病为主题的《终极守候》，相信下半年会和大家见面。　　

谢婉谕则“转换跑道”，过档5频道，搭档葛米星，参与环境喜剧《Calefare》的演出。此剧已在国庆日当晚首播，并会从19日开始，每逢星期二晚上8时播出。

圈内人：他们当红

公主出镜率过高，圈内人：“她们当红！”　　

七公主上半年“量”相过高，圈内人受询时访反问：“除了她们，还有谁能站在一线当主角？”　　

不是还有郑惠玉和范文芳吗？　　

圈内人一听，说：“人家要拍电影嘛！”　

他接着又说：“无线来来去去也都是那几个小生花旦啊！”　　

不过，他坦言，并非每名公主都有把握好良机，更上一层。他说：“有些公主有很多机会，可是他们还是不开窍，表现一直没有太大的跃进，还定格在以前的甜美角色中。”　　

他点名称赞欧萱：“请看欧萱在《小娘惹》的表现。她进步很多，连说话的语气都改掉了。”

此外，虽然新传媒一直有举办寻新节目挖掘新人才，但这名圈内人认为，他们仍不成气候，现在还需要时间“磨一磨”　

不过，他否认有公主受力捧或被冷藏之说。他解释：“其实选角是监制依据角色而定，并非刻意给谁特别机会或待遇。”
