[Jolin Tsai] NEVER LOOK BACK in Jolin's 14th Thread!

[Linoa62]

Jolin is in Paris o_O

[AyuHamasaki01]

^ I wish she would come to Holland. Holland is a nice country too; we have tulips, cheese, mills, clogs ..... (okay, now don't think that all Dutch people walk on clogs every day, because we don't).

[Linoa62]

She posted a pic of the bridge that appears at the beginning of Agent J's MV. It's near the Seine River.

I received my photobook The Spirit of Knight & Don't Stop today!!!
The photobook contains a VCD with the song The Spirit of Knight & the photobook's making.
I took pics of the photobook with my cellphone, it has a lot of pages.

I thought in the first place that there were only pics in this but actually at the beginning you have like a 45-pages interview, with all you need to know about Jolin (her life, her career and so on). Of course it's written in Chinese so I can't read it -_- *cries*

There is a "thank you" page too, she wrote half Chinese half English messages to some people, here's what she wrote to Jay Chou, who composed for her The Spirit of Knight (I took a pic of that page, but it's kinda blurry):

"You"re the cutest and the more talented friend I've ever met. Actually I don't know how to thank you. Well, (something in Chinese)! Anyway, thank you for your great song. I really enjoy it. Thank you so much!

Those are great sales!
Big in Asia.

Jolin was nominated with Honey Trap MV at the 22nd Golden Melody Awards.
In the end she didn't win, HEBE did with 寂寞寂寞就好, MV below.

[AyUta]

^ I love them both, so I don't mind really .

[Corvina]

Hebe is a good choice.
The MV is better, at least it's deeper in meaning.^^

[Linoa62]

Jolin attended a friend's wedding yesterday, his name is Lee Yi and he's a Taiwanese actor.

First promo pic

[AyuHamasaki01]

^Ooh I like her dress!
She looks gorgeous.

[JackieRos]

she looks amazing.

[Linoa62]

pommy did a summary of the text included on Jolin's book preorder page:

Jolin will teach you to "eat, sleep, and still be skinny" tips for your daily life.
She talks about how her sister slimmed down 1 month after giving birth.
Jolin actually has a fat body, so she's not naturally slim. She had to work her hardest to get her body to where she wants it.
She will talk about her 20 tips to slim down.

It's already hard to find translations for her songs (I'm still searching for someone to translate Myself's songs -_-)... But don't give up lol

[AyUta]

^ Possibly...have you asked pommy?

If you're talking about the book, she said that she won't translate it XD
As for Myself lyrics, I already bother her with translations from time to time, I have to admit that I didn't dare to ask her yet :/
