Hello and welcome to my blog! About myself:

I am an artiste because

I dare because

Have hope because

\"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden\".

When a girl meets her idol..

It was a pretty mundane night in a private club and there I was minding my own business, sipping champagne until I noticed a guy who didn't quite fit the dress code. He was in a white t-shirt, pants and white sports shoes. He wore a cap over his long grey and was awkwardly swimming in a jacket which was quite apparently put onto him by someone else who thinks that he was standing out just a tad too much.

It took me one whole minute to figure out who he was. I can't believe that because I've watched 40 of his movies and a few of them, over 30 times! When I realised who he was, I asked my friend to introduce us and guess what was the first stupid words that rolled out from my tongue?

" I've been watching your movies since I was 8 years old"

and he went,

" Don't say that, you make me feel so old" !

I was sort of wishing that the ground would miraculously split open and swallow me up at that moment. I mean after more than 10 years of wanting to tell him how much I love him as a legend, that's the best I could come up with? Oh well, I don't think he'll remember it anyway.

Maybe many would you have guessed correctly by now. Yes, he is no other that the ultimate king of comedy,

I was so proud when I saw this cover. You've got to love this Asian Hero.

So which is your favourite movie? I'll highlight mine in PINK. Warning: I might end up highlighting all!

Stephen Chow is excellent! I've lent out my "Shaolin Soccer" and "Kung Fu Hustle" DVDs to many of my friends here in the US and they have become fans of his too. I liked "CJ7" a lot and I've also seen "King of Comedy" and "God of Cookery".

yeah he wasn't in the first god of gamblers for sure.

anyway, if you haven't seen it yet, watch 'Fists of Fury 1991' and 'Love on Delivery', they're two of my favorites, but i think 'Back to Shanghai' is probably the best...

There are corrections you shoulda made in his filmography. He was not in "God of Gamblers" and he was not in "My Hero 2". "God of Gamblers" is the flick starring Chow Yun-Fat. Also, he was in the first "My Hero" film. Dicky Cheung took over for the sequel.

Lucky YOU! I, sadly, have only seen 5 of his films: 'Forbidden City Cop'; 'Gorgeous' (I didn't see him, though, just Jackie Chan & Shu Qi); 'Shaolin Soccer'; 'Kung Fu Hustle' & 'CJ7'. He is very funny, in any case, so I wish him all of the success he deserves for the Future. By the way, I made a quiz here: http://web.tickle.com/net/caq/result.html?id=13482563 with him and many other Asian stars. Give it a try, and tell me what YOU think! Finally, YOU look lovely in the pic with him, but he looks like he was hoping to remain incognito for the evening. lol Take care!

That's so great you got to meet your idol, and that he was so nice to you. Here in the US, we are just discovering Stephen Chow through his recent films. I've bought a few of his older films and there are many more I want to see and that I'll be ordering from Hong Kong (because they aren't for sale in the US). It would be fun to meet him someday, I think he's a genius. But I won't make him feel old because I'm a few years older than he is and didn't grow up watching his movies.:-)
