Vicki Zhao: It Will Be A Pity If I Don’t Perform

It's not for the money.

Or that's what Vicki Zhao claims.

The China-based actress had a brief stay in Singapore during her pregnancy - which was also where she gave birth to her daughter - to avoid media scrutiny.

After giving birth, the star was back in action, appearing at product launches and various events.

Due to this, rumours have been rife that Vicki has been working furiously as her husband, tycoon Huang You-long has dumped her.

Vicki was in Beijing as a product ambassador where she refuted the rumours.

"I'm not taking up any movie deals with Stephen Chow, neither am I filming Painted Skin 2. I do not wish to take on any more period movies."

For her future plans, Vicki revealed that she will be filming a new movie in two months' time and may be involved in movie directing in the future. She will also be on the panel of judges for the upcoming China Changchun Film Festival.

So is she doing all these for the moolah?

"I do not wish to waste my talent; it will be a pity if I don't perform. And I think that women should earn their own keep to prove their worth."

When asked about her daughter, Vicki said that she is in Singapore and like herself, her daughter has big eyes. She added that she still hasn't got used to being called 'mom'.

Beyond that, Vicki refused to provide more details, saying that she does not wish to discuss her personal affairs in public.

Translated by: KAY@kays-entertainment.blogspot.com

Vicki Zhao finally spoke up and expressed her feelings about pregnancy through a Mainland magazine:

Actually I don't haven't anything to hide. Everything I did is for my family to have a peaceful living environment. I thought it's just personal life and I don't need to share it with the public. Seems like you can't always do things you like once you're in the showbiz. Now my personal life is linked to another female star, this is scary hehe. It seems like I have lots of things to complain about.


Thank you everyone for your concern. It's not my habit to share my personal life with the public and steal the headline. Maybe I'm too low-key, that's why it attracted more unnecessary rumors, doubts, and imaginations. I want to let everyone know that I'm alright. My life now is peaceful, normal, and happy. I never let myself rest these years. Thank you all your care and concern. Wish everyone's tomorrow is another sunny and glittering day.
