Busy Busy...



As both of my bosses are on vacation this week, work has become even more hectic and that's why I haven't found the time to blog think straight. It's always one thing after another at work, and I haven't even been able to go out to lunch much because I am seriously afraid that something oh-my-god-important might happen during that time. Ergh.

So people have asked me what I think about the Ronald-Charlene divorce-and-oh-by-the-way-we-got-married-4-years-ago fiasco. My response has been looking at the person blankly in his/her eyes followed by "Why is that any of my business?" First of all, I have never been a believer in anything the paparazzi churn out (although after this incident, I might need to give my practice a second thought). Secondly, I myself have been extremely divorced from the HK entertainment circle that I haven't watched any crap that TVB still doesn't feel ashamed to produce these days. So yeah, you can tell me Charmaine got married with Eric Tsang 10 years ago and they now have 4 toddlers tagging behind, and I will believe you. Lastly, as to Ronald and Charlene, well, like what I always say, you can't always have the best of both worlds. With fame comes loss of privacy. As much as marriage is a private matter, if, as a celebrity, you can't stand the thought of the public finding out about your marriage, then you obviously value your fame and celebrity status more than marriage. Then why bother? Marriage is a happy thing, and it's about the coming together of two individuals and their families. If you must hide the bliss of marriage to preserve your career and life, then you obviously don't have enough respect for the institution. I would advise that marriage is not ripe for you.

That's why I highly respect Matsushima Nanako. She is probably more successful and famous than Ronald and Charlene combined. And yet when she decided to get married, she made it known and she has never tried to hide her marriage life from the public. And look at her now. Not only is she respected as a successful actress, she is also loved by the public for her role as a wife and a loving mother.
