Blog Asian Artists

Triumph in the Skies II just finished shooting in Europe and the cast are now back in Hong Kong. However, Fala Chen was not only rumored with the married Chilam Cheung, but someone claiming to be a friend of a TVB makeup artist exposed on Weibo that "Miss C" was frequently late to work. Each day, at around 5:30am, "Miss C" has to get her makeup done, but she gets to work 2 hours later. The staff exposed: "Are you here for vacation or for work? You don't even understand the fundamental of being punctual!"

Once the comment was posted on Weibo, Netizens began discussing on who this "Miss C" might be. The only actress by the surname of Chan who went to France for TITS2 shooting was Fala Chen. One Netizen even criticized Fala, because she already has a wealthy boyfriend, so she "could careless about work"!

Yesterday afternoon, Fala got back to HK. She accepted a telephone interview with [The Sun], she admitted she had been late before, but there is a misunderstanding. She explained and emphasized that since shooting started, she follows the work schedule exactly, she said: "All along, I have only been late once or twice and each time it was 10 minutes late at most. I didn't affect the shooting progress at all." She explained there was miscommunication with the behind-the-scene staff: "The misunderstanding was caused by miscommunication within the staff, but this misunderstanding had already been resolved. This trip was tiring for us all, but we all had a good time with the crew, very good team work spirit and what makes me most unhappy was all the gossips created by the magazines."

On Weibo, Fala wrote: "Self Reflection: Don't assume others know me and understand me, sometimes that's how misunderstand arises. So, don't think its troublesome to communicate with others. Being considerate of others, taking the initiative and another step can probably save the work and render better outcomes. Additionally, sincerity, honesty and tolerance is the best solution. If I did it, I will admit it. If I didn't do something, then I will go find out if there is a misunderstanding. As a team member, I did a self-reflection on how I could be more considerate of others. Ultimately, there was an issue that arose. I'm still busy discussing with you all on how to respond the the public as a public figure and to protect this team. Turns out, I'm wrong. I was thinking too much!"

Nancy Wu & Producer Supports Fala's Professionalism

TITS2's producer (Au Koon Ying) accepted a telephone interview and defended Fala: "The filming schedule in France and England was very tight and the sunset is really early there too, so we have to start working at 4-5am every morning. The makeup artist said she didn't write that Weibo comment. She only vented to her friend before, but then she later realized it was just a misunderstanding. She explained to Fala already and her friend deleted that Weibo post."

Reporters checked the Weibo again and discovered the makeup artist's friend did indeed delete the "Miss C" comment and replaced it with an apology: "From today on, I will no longer say harmful things about people. Please all, start from doing your own part!"

Nancy Wu and Francis Ng are also part of the cast of TITS2 who went with Fala to Europe. Nancy supported Fala that she has a professional attitude: "I don't feel that she has a bad attitude at all, but actually she's very into her work. Every artist has their own makeup artist. Even in HK, artists may not appear at the same time as the makeup artist. This time, we were shooting overseas, perhaps its just miscommunication." It was said Fala is acting like a big shot, Francis expressed: "Fala usually does her own makeup, I am more worried about other people."
