Leehom Wang Not Suprised At Receiving Only 1 Nomination

Leehom Wang held a celebration autograph signing for his album "The 18 Martial Arts" yesterday. Talked about this year's Golden Horse Awards, his "Love in Disguise," the first film he directed, received only 1 nomination---"Best Original Film Song," he expressed it's as expected and it's more important that the audience like the film. "Just disappointed that Chen Han Dian didn't get nominated," he sighed.

Xiao S Asks About Rumor, Leehom Wang Lies on the Floor, Pretending to be Dead

Leehom Wang banned "Kangxi Lai Le" because of Shu Qi for 3 years. Now the rumor faded away, because Chen Han Dian*, Leehom went to the show again to promote for new movie "Love in Disguise."

Three years ago, Leehom was rumored with Shu Qi. He was questioned by Xiao S about his rumors in the show. Although he didn't say anything, but made a funny face. In the end this scene was captured and showed it as promotion clip. Plus it titled "Leehom Wang indirectly admits Shu Qi." That's why he refused to go to "Kangxi" for 3 years.

In order to promote new movie "Love in Disguise" and his new album <<十八般武藝>>, he started his break the ice journal. His first appearance to variety show is "enemy" Show Luo's "Entertainment 100%," then he went to "Kangxi" yesterday.

In the end, in order to avoid rumors, he lay on the floor. Xiao S did the same even when she was wearing a mini skirt, and asked: "Your movie premier, would you invite A-Mei, Shu Qi to go?" Leehom lay on the floor and didn't respond. He finished off by singing his new song in the end.

Leehom admitted that indeed he wasn't happy about "Kangxi" in the past. This time he came again is because of Chen Han Dian [who also starred Leehom's new movie and thus teased by Xiao S and Kang Yong that he is becoming a big star and forget about Kangxi].

Because of this reason, Xiao S and Cai Kang Yong kept "humiliating" Han Dian, even wanted to leave the filming studio; it was a funny moment.

In fact Xiao S has a pretty good friendship with Leehom, but she is afraid he might get mad again so she didn't ask directly. She disclosed Leehom likes girls like Vivian Hsu, and asked him: "How long haven't you hold a girl to sleep?" Leehom started to stutter and sweat. Cai Kang Yong also asked with good skill; because the character Leehom played in the movie is doubted by outsiders that whether he likes guys or girls, whether it reflects the reality? Leehom said it's a funny point, plus he now he won't sweat for these types of question.

*For those who have been watch "Kangxi Lai Le," which is a Taiwanese variety talk show, you should be familiar with Chen Han Dian. He is the person/assistant who always stand and dress up as different characters depending on the topic. He's dry if he has to host by himself, but is a pretty funny point to watch when Xiao S and Kang Yong ge join him.
