Hate Rui En? Don’t read on… 讨厌瑞恩的读者请不要读下去。。。

You are warned. This is strictly meant for Rui En’s fans. Some may call her MediaCorp’s ‘Ice Princess’, some reporters think she is very ‘haolian’ and still boycotting her today for not revealing her personal handphone number to them but Rui En is going to surprise everyone soon…

In the next new Channel 8 drama ’Happy Family 全家福’ , 瑞恩演林小冬 Rui En plays Lin Xiao Dong - a simple-minded 单纯 (not sure if this is very Rui En)、cheerful 乐观 (also not your typical Rui En as painted by the media)、persistent 锲而不舍 (maybe this is very Rui En) girl with super-memory 记忆力特强 (maybe this is also very Rui En?)。

When she was 4 years old, her mum left home with her after a break-up quarrel with her Dad. Her mum later died in a freak fire accident. She was adopted and grew up under the care of a stubborn and bad-tempered man played by Chen Shu Cheng. Very ‘pai-mia’ (bad life) but she did not grow up to be a negative person. 4岁时候,父母争吵,母亲带她离家出走,之后一场大火把妈妈给烧死了,顿时失去依靠。性格刚烈、脾气暴躁、不苟言笑的董建业(陈树承饰演)收养了她。

This ultra cheerful gal lives a life of happiness though she may not know a lot of things in life (know less worry less lor) 生性开朗,虽然懂得的东西不多,快乐却比别人多。从小母亲就要她背弟子规,她能将‘弟子规’背得滚瓜烂熟。Rui En works in a provision shop in Chinatown owned by Chen Shu Cheng在董建业牛车水的杂货店里帮忙。

She is that type of a gal that even though she might have fallen in love with the guy next store selling bras, she still sincerely helped him find his true love somewhere else with another gal.喜欢隔壁店铺卖胸罩的男生,男生一直只把她当妹妹看待,当他与女朋友感情出现问题,小冬非但没有落井下石,反而想办法让男生跟女朋友重修旧好…

When Chen Shu Cheng came down with a stroke one day, he disclosed to Rui En that his last wish was to take a reunion photo with his 2 sons and a daughter. Rui En makes it her ultimate aim to fulfill this last wish of his but things aren’t going to be easy for the ‘happy-go-lucky’ gal…突然中风的董建业向林小冬透露有二男一女,希望有生之年再跟孩子们拍全家福,小冬为完成董建业的心愿而。。。

I am glad to see Rui En taking on a role that is so not Rui En. A likeable role like this for Rui En may win over many new fans (even fans of other ‘Princesses’ may switch camp). But can Rui En pull it off?

I have confidence. You?

    Of course , I like Rui En because she is very cute when she smiles.

    By the way, Paul, do you know many overseas fans are angry with Medicorps for not allowing Ch8 dramas serial to be shown online at their countries?

    There are many Singaporeans who resides overseas due to work commitment , wish to watch Ch8 dramas , are disappointed that they cannot watch online Ch8 dramas.

    Meryl Streep’s role in the hollywood movie The Devil Wears Prada suits Zoe to perform in a drama.
    The story is about office politics, love and family…..so the plot can change abit here and there which suits our working personnel office life………

    Zoe can perform the mature role in a drama that follows the movie <> whereby Meryl Streep who acted as the ruthless and cynical Miranda Priestly and this role suits Zoe to play the same career minded woman boss but different version……. in terms of her age should not be a problem.

    Next, the load of crap about the interview and what-not is another bunch of bullshit inference from you again. But of course I knew about the 1003 radio station CALL-IN discussion that had alot of people laughing about it. 0% credibility if you ask me.

    Oh and if you wish for me to break it down for you and let you see the light behind the tunnel, and totally embarrass you at the same time (refer below),

    “steve (23:41:06) :

    then I’m open to doing it. Just simply direct any comment at me and I will spend about 3 mins to insult you with facts, not with “pple not stupid, ppl will get very very angry” kinda crap-ped up logic.

    Hi Paul,
    It’s definitely interesting update about Rui En! Definitely no sense of hatred …haha! (cos hating ppl is tiring) :D
    She is definitely one of the 8 princesses (plus Aunty Lucy) that can really act well. With her different challenging roles which left deep impression, she has the Ah Jie status in years to come if more roles are given to her. As her attitudes is more defined and known to the public who does not “put on a fake look.”
    I’m looking forward to this drama, hope to see more updates!

I think that the princesses really bring out all that they have to stand out. The competition is still on and it is burning hot!

    Errrr? What is wrong with going under plastic surgery? All of these started because of Desmond Koh. If he could keep his mouth shut, none of these would have started. I hate Desmond Koh so much now! He will never manage to get any Awards next year at the Star Awards I believe. Felicia Chin on the other hand will very like get the Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes Award. To Steve, I think Callista’s prediction list is more convincing than yours. It is very true that 5 of the Princesses will make it for that Award. Errrr.. Michelle Chia when she does not have any products up to now? With that alone, she can’t be nominated for that Award. She will be like Ivy Lee and Vivian Lai. Kym Ng might make it because Vivian Lai is going to step out of the list. But people.. Eelyn Kok? x.x I’m not sure about that but maybe she might really get that Award through “Together”. I am very sure that “Together” is going to be like “The Little Nyonya” which is a nice thing. Anyway, I’m really amazed by the transformation done of Rui En and I wish her a very successful filming for this show to pull off in her role. All the best Princesses (Especially Felicia, Jeanette and Rui En)! (: (Especially Felicia, Jeanette and Rui En.)

    After reading the wanbao featuring felicia on plastic surgery, the truth is in fact almost all the artistes did something to enhance their looks, one famous surgeon said that. Strangely it seems that the focus is more on the ladies, but we viewers know that actually the males including the 当红ones also did something to their faces(shaping the face to made it more chiselled, lift up & shaping the nose to made it look sharper and higher, flattening the teeth, made the lips look thinner, botox, remove wrinkles etc). The sad truth is technology has become so advanced that it is very difficult to find someone who is naturally beautiful.

    For me, Rui En is one of the princess who has become more and more likeable besides Jeanette and Jessica.
    They have proven to us that they’re very true, original, humble, sweet and willing to work hard.

    For FC, it’s her right if she wud like to improve her looks, either thru traditional way or PS.
    So many people asking her this PS question because the changes in her looks is really amazing.
    By they way, she looks a bit nervous or it’s her habit, during C tea break she keeps touching her hair countless of times during Q&A.

    For JP, just a bit comment to improve for the better. On the photo with JA during TLN’s dinner recently, her face looks so oily. I feel as an artist she really has to pay attention on this matter, as so many people will look at her.

    I’m confident about RE’s acting but I am not so sure if the role of Lin Xiaodong would be well-developed. Scared of a repeat like My School Daze…

    And I wonder if RE would pen the lyrics for the songs?

    Ann Kok blogged about QJF in both her blogs…shall copy & paste her role’s description:

    “《全家福》里的董水星,17岁那年因不小心怀孕,爸爸很痛心就把水星给打瘸了,也和她断绝父女关系。父女之间的感情决裂后,17年来都不曾见面,也失去了联络。水星靠自己的双手,在家里帮人按摩,独自把女儿带大。”

    “in Happy Family, dong shuixing got pregnant at the age of 17, & was maimed & disowned by her heartbroken father. she became a cripple & did not keep in touch with her dad since then, for 17 years. shuixing depends on herself, provides massage service for clients at home, & reared her child.”

    Anyway, this drama not eligible for SA 2010 hor?

    (Paul: Not eligible…)

    you know, metamorphosis is my ultimate favorite show amongst all shows rui en had acted in. i believe, given the synopsis you’ve written out, this is gonna be yet another break through role for rui en. it’s like a totally ‘spoil image’ role from who you usually are! like seriously how many actresses wouldn’t mind that? so far, i see rui en and joanne(the 180ep show). i wish her all the best, and i hope to see her sitting at the front row next year at star awards. not just a fantasy i hope ;)

    Ruien has been bubbly when she first started acting. she was like Felicia Chin, always cheerful and friendly. i dont know what happened to her. maybe she was violated by a guy and become a bung. or maybe Mediacorp wants her to be Ice Princess to gain publicity. whatever the reason is, this isnt the first time Ruien acting as a nice girl. her initial roles on tv are all goody girl until recently, she became hostile.

    anyway paul, your blog is getting boring. can you do something about it. update more? more juicy gossips? no gossips also make up some gossips?

    It will definitely be a breakthrough role for her! Totally not the usual ‘Ice Queen’ character, but an optimistic and cheerful girl!

    She’s totally cute even with the auntie-ish clothes, or perhaps even cuter? :D The imaging really brought out that simple-minded-ness of the character.

    And I’m really happy that she’ll be singing the theme and sub-theme song, I have the confidence in her acting & singing.

    This is going to be an impressive role I believe. The challenge amongst the princesses is really aggressive which I am so elated to say that. But Dawn Yeoh and Fiona Xie are definitely losing the challenge. For now, Felicia Chin and Jessica Liu are going to make it into the talk of the town. Followed by Jeanette Aw and Joanne Peh as the year reaches its end like last year. After that, Rui En is going on top. This may be enough to help the 5 princesses pull through the oncoming awards. “Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes” is going to be semi-covered by them. Followed by our unbeatable Xiang Yun. Yvonne Lim may earn herself the award this year again because of “Your Hands in Mine.” Patricia Mok definitely earned herself some fames this year through “Paris and Milan” and this might be one of her best chance to pull through the award. Also, not forgetting the strong contender, Quan Yi Fong. Hopefully, Vivian Lai might earn herself a role before the awards so that she can be nominated for the award. However again, Rui En might face some trouble to be the talk of the town because she will have to defeat the hype that both Jeanette and Joanne are going to create by the year-end. “Together” might be another product that may help to make Jeanette big. Once again, it will be an extremely competitive challenge again the double Js, Jeanette and Joanne. Voice out your comments on who will emerge as the queen! Zoe mama, do you mind stepping down?

    this drama didn’t quite appeal to me earlier, even though i’m a fan of rui en. but pics of her image in the drama made me take a second look, because it’s cute – sure, but more because it’s finally not a character with a cool-cool look. back to the cute-sweet sorta characters she portrayed earlier in her career. now i’m really looking forward to the drama! it’s great that she’s going to sing both the theme and subtheme songs, that’s a hugeeee bonus for us fans. i hope my favourite babe will enjoy the filming process as much as how much i know i’ll enjoy watching this drama!

    omg, thanks Paul for finally posting up something on Rui En’s new show. I really looking forward to her show as well as the songs that she will be singing for this show. Her character is so cute, so ‘auntie’ and blur blur-like.
    It will definitely be a breakthrough for her and hope that she can get nominated for best actress for this role.
    btw, Paul, will filming be done mostly in Chinatown?
    Anyway idea, where else could Rui En be filming at too?
    Thanks.

    (Paul: Not sure if will be filmed in Chinatown but I personally like roles given to artistes that are completely opposite of their real life character.

    Is this role even more outstanding then “Metamorphosis”?
    She changed alot,currently watching repeating “U Are The One”,so different from her “cool-cool” image…If she maintain that image,I believe she share the same image as felicia & Joanne(:
    But her “coolness” always rang ren liu xia ying xiang, agree wif Zoe!=D

    Sir, yes Sir! I have confident in Rui En. It’s the “bring-out-the-best-of-the-character” that matter the most to me no matter if an “Ice Princess” or “Thunder Princess” to play the role. Being able to etch into the memory of audiences is consider the best already. I am not picky. By the way, I like the MJ T-Shirt. haha…

    On the side note, what’s wrong with not giving phone number to reporters? Don’t they understand (read my lip) PRIVACY??
