Malaysian singer Gary Chaw and his two children Joe, 6, and Grace, 3, have joined the second season of China version reality show Dad, Where Are You Going? early this year. But his younger child will now be leaving the show as she bade farewell to co-stars and viewers in the preview of the next episode.

Grace was seen crying and saying goodbye to the other children, “Bye, I have to go.”

Hong Kong actor Francis Ng, one of the fathers on the show, hugged and consoled her, “Grace is my goddess.”

Gary’s management explained, “Gary respects his daughter’s decision and will not force her to do anything against her will.”

The production unit shared, “Grace will leave the show and will not participate in the last stop of Dad, Where Are We Going?”

In addition, the host of the show, Li Rui, published a book which included conflicts of the show. A portion mentioned how Francis got angered by Gary during their first meeting when the latter told him, “I grew up watching your movies,” and elaborated, “Including the ones with explicit content.”

When this was made public, Francis expressed regret over participating in the show as “he thought he only had to bring his child to the zoo. Now he has become a gorilla (laughing stock).”

Lady Gaga Delayed Having Kids Because of Tony Bennett, Says He Saved Her Life

Typically the choice to have children is that of the parents-to-be, but in Lady Gaga’s case, jazz legend Tony Bennett had a significant role in her decision not to reproduce right now. 

“I thought I did [want kids immediately], because I was feeling kind of finished with all of the chaos of my life,” she told Parade. “But then I started to spend a lot more time with Tony, and everything just became simpler, more pure, and more perfect. Now I think I’m going to take a lot more time before I have kids and settle down. I just want to sing.”

Gaga, 28, who has been dating Chicago Fire star Taylor Kinney since 2011, recently went through a rough patch in her career — namely, poor critical and commercial reception to her third studio album ARTPOP — and even considered giving up on music all together. 

“Six months ago I didn’t even want to sing anymore,” the “Applause” singer explained. “The other day, Tony said, ‘I’ve ­never once in my career not wanted to do this.’ It stung. Six months ago I didn’t feel that way. I tell Tony every day that he saved my life. I was so sad. I couldn’t sleep. I felt dead. And then I spent a lot of time with Tony. He wanted nothing but my friendship and my voice.”


Together the new duo, who call themselves Tony and Lady, are preparing for the release of their jazz album Cheek to Cheek, which is set to be released on Sept. 23. 


“I just love what she did on this album,” Bennett, 88, said. “She’s up there with Ella Fitzgerald, who was the greatest singer in the world.”

Jennifer Lawrence announced as co-host for Met Gala 2015

Jennifer Lawrence will co-host the Met Gala 2015, it has been announced.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art revealed the news, confirming that the event will take place in New York on May 4.

Cannes

The Oscar-winning actress will co-chair the annual fashion ball alongside Vogue editor Anna Wintour, Yahoo boss Marissa Mayer, Chinese actress Gong Li and Rupert Murdoch's former wife, businesswoman Wendi Deng Murdoch.

Held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Anna Wintour Costume Center, the theme of the 2015 gala and it's accompanying exhibition will be Chinese Whispers: Tales of the East in Art, Film and Fashion.

"Chinese Whispers will primarily examine how eastward-looking Westerners have understood, misunderstood and appropriated Chinese culture in an exchange that Bolton [Andrew, curator in the museum's Costume Institute] likens to a complicated game of telephone (which the British call 'Chinese whispers')," a Vogue description said.

Sarah Jessica Parker co-chaired this year's gala alongside Lawrence's Silver Linings Playbook co-star Bradley Cooper. 

The duo have reunited for new film Serena, for which a trailer premiered earlier this week.

Kanye West Demands Fan In Wheelchair Stand Up

Kanye West refused to continue his show on Friday night in Sydney, Australia until the entire audience was standing and dancing in physical Yeezus worship. Unfortunately for Kanye's self-esteem, one of the audience members had a prosthetic leg and another was wheel-chair bound.

One concertgoer told the Daily Mail that he addressed the crowd saying "I can't do this show until everybody stand up. Unless you got a handicap pass and you get special parking and s**t." The fan waved her leg in the air and Kanye so kindly continued the show, stopping again when he saw there remained a single seated fan.

According to the tabloid, he then halted performance of "Good Life," saying "'This is the longest I've had to wait to do a song, it's unbelievable," before sending over a body guard to check that the fan was differently abled.

'The crowd was also yelling that he was in a wheelchair but he waited for Pascal's confirmation,' the witness said, while others said the crowd made 'wheelchair motions' to alert the singer to his mistake.
'When he sent Pascal up there he said, 'He is in a wheelchair? It's fine!' the witness reported.

After Korean star Kim Soo Hyun rose to fame for his recent drama, You Who Came From The Star, he has been invited to several TV programmes in China, including Jiangsu TV’s popular variety show Super Brain.

Soo Hyun was said to have earned NT$15 million (approximately S$620,000) for his appearance.

At the recording of the show yesterday, another guest, Taiwanese host Matilda Tao, teased him with a question that drove the audience mad with screaming. “Why did you wear a towel when you were bathing in the drama?” she asked.

Faced with such a sensitive and awkward question, Soo Hyun blushed, and replied: “If I don’t wear it, the scene would not be broadcasted!”

Her embarrassing question enraged Soo Hyun’s fans, who called her names online, branding her as “indecent” and even expressed their hate for her.

In response to the criticisms, Matilda said that the producers had wanted her to interact with Soo Hyun during the programme. “My question is related to the drama, and I did not mean to ‘take advantage’ of him,” she said.

Yao Yuan Hao rebuked claims that his girlfriend has gone under the knife

Taiwanese singer Cyndi Wang sparked plastic surgery rumours when she posted a selfie on her microblog. Netizens commented that her jawline looks significantly sharper and smaller as compared to her past photos.

Her boyfriend, Yao Yuan Hao, declared at a sports brand’s press conference, “(she) really hasn’t gone under any plastic surgery!” sharing that he also looks significantly different from five years ago. “I’ve seen my female friends go under the knife and they always have wounds on their face. Plastic surgery requires a recovery period and her schedule is so full that she definitely has no time for it.”

Cyndi previously admitted that plastic surgery rumours affect her, with Yuan Hao admitting that she has been feeling rather low as of late. As a dutiful boyfriend, he has been consoling with her with his words, “They’re jealous that you’re too pretty and take too good care of yourself.”

He shared that he does not oppose girls going under the knife, as long as it gives them more confidence and does not affect their health. The two admitted to rekindling their romance in 2013 but Yuan Hao stressed that the two are putting the focus on their respective careers and that marriage is not yet on the cards.
