Up, up and away
The mood was sombre at the press meet for Adrian Pang’s Ch 8 swansong With You in the aftermath of Felicia Chin bidding adieu at the Star Awards.

Chen Shucheng speaks up!
“It saddens me that some artistes cannot accept the terms on their contracts. But there needs to be some give and take – you don’t demand for too much. That’s why when I sign my contract, I’m in and out in five minutes. Of course, the company has to be fair too. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but I haven’t had an onscreen wife for the past four years and I’m always the single parent. And in With You, I’ve to advise my daughter-in-law (played by Rui En) about abortion. That doesn’t sound right, does it?”

With You
May 12, Wednesday, Channel 8, 9PM
A ‘remake’ of Fiona Xie’s Maggie & Me, this 20-parter is about a man (Adrian Pang in his swansong MediaCorp role) who’s a go-between between a wandering spirit (Chen Hanwei) and his wife (Rui En).

The many crying scenes in With You left her crazy, scared and sick

For the first time in her career, Rui En cried through many of her scenes in upcoming Channel 8 drama With You. If she wasn’t sobbing, chances are her character was still at least grieving.

And it took its toll.

The actress known for her frosty front revealed that filming for the show put her emotions into tailspin, creating an-almost split personality and made her sick.

After her wacky turn in the Chinese New Year drama Happy Family, Rui En will soon be seen as a mother-of-one who loses her husband (played by Chen Hanwei) to a road accident in With You.

In an interview with xinmsn, she said having to cry and maintain a sense of sorrow throughout much of the filming was exhausting and made her sick. The method thespian, who said she has never lost anyone dear to her, used shouting and wailing to get herself into character and even discussed extensively with the director how to refrain from bawling pointlessly.

“That feeling was simply too scary,” the ice queen said about reaching reel breaking point.

“I’ve never been like that. Also, after work I had to ensure I stopped being sad. It might not be very healthy,” she considered seriously.

Rui En played the gullible, good-natured Yang Xiaodong in Happy Family and has just started filming for cop drama Unriddle, in which she stars as a tough anti-hero, Hu Xiaoman.

With just about a month of rest in among the three vastly different roles, the 29-year-old reckons she’s almost schizophrenic, “Now I feel I’m going crazy! Physically I’m feeling a little tired too.”

The actress counts Academy Award-winning French diva Marion Cotillard as the person she looks up to. Although she feels she might never reach the skill level of the 34-year-old star of La Vie en Rose, Taxi and Nine, her With You co-stars might not agree.

At the press conference on Tuesday, Asian screen king Adrian Pang called her abilities “scary”, while Hanwei labeled her a “crying goddess”.

Veteran actor Chen Shucheng even named her in the company of acclaimed local actresses Huang Biren and Ivy Lee, all of whom, he said, could cry “beautifully” and reflect the demands of the scenes’ context.

With You debuts 12 May, 9pm on Channel 8.

Here’s a quick peek into the “With You” press conference held yesterday afternoon.

Only pictures at the moment but more videos will be uploaded soon!

All smiles!

Our 2 award-winning actors on their last drama together before Adrian leaves. Remember to catch them, the chemistry they have is amazing.

The always versatile, but sometimes underrated Brandon. Keep supporting him!

Rui En looking her best as the cool, biker chick.

Penny for your thoughts?

The ever pretty and talented May, who looks even more radiant after being a mother. Like Brandon, she’s incredibly versatile. Keep a lookout for her as she plays a housewife in this drama. It may seem like a simple role, but it’s definitely not easy.

Our veteran Chen Shucheng. He never fails to impress, and your heart will break when you see him in his role as a grieving father trying to keep his family together.

Nat and Rui En. Nat has really grown over the past few years, and this nice chap has done very well thus far.  Congrats on your recent win too!

Monkeying around?

Our last farewell to the talented Adrian. His role in “With You” is a must-watch. He brings to his role perfect comedic timing, with a touch of pathos.

Videos will be up soon!

Catch “With You”, 12 May, weekdays, only on Channel 8

Still can’t get enough of Star Awards 2010’s glamour and glitz? In the first part of our lookbook, we round up our pick of 10 starlets from the bevy of beauties who flaunted their stuff best at the award show.

xinmsn为你送上《红星大奖2010》十大最吸睛！

《红星大奖2010》颁奖礼前晚圆满落幕，除了各大奖项花落谁家，观众最在意的莫过于艺人们如何在红地毯和舞台上凭造型一较高低。毕竟，拿不到奖座，也能在媒体报道中拿个最佳服装奖自我安慰。

上周的《红星大奖2010亮闪八方》，郭舒贤的爆奶短裙、范文芳的深V礼服，和莫小玲的皮革紧身裙最夺目，这一周又有谁秀尽本钱，强力出击呢？xinmsn为你送上《红星大奖2010》十大最吸睛！

Rui En 瑞恩

Inspired by screen legend and fashion icon, Marlene Dietrich’s androgynous style, rock-chic babe Rui En shows up in old Hollywood glamour style spotting a high waisted trousers and a boxy coat from local designer, Verna Tan. Together with her side-swept 50s hairdo, scarlet lips and blood-red painted nails, the whole menswear combo evokes a stark contrast to the throng of feminine silhouettes at the awards show. Definitely one of our favourite looks for the night.

酷女瑞恩从不屈服于”露”的风潮，一向偏好帅气打扮。今年，她穿上本地设计师Verna Tan的西装，并将长卷发放下，刚中带柔。今年流行”boyfriend’s look”，复古垫肩也继续盛行，瑞恩做到以上潮流点，也难怪本地著名造型师李荣达（Addy Lee）会大赞她好有个性！

Fashion Police – Page 24

Black beauty… again: We know this sleek all-black Gucci get-up is right up Rui-en’s alley, but would it kill the princess to inject some colour into her wardrobe for once?

2. Star Awards Show 2

The Style Report Card – Page 38

Rui En’s Grade: C
What a drag: She claims to be channelling film siren Marlene Dietrich’s androgynous falir, but we can’t stop thinking about how Rui En ‘stole’ the undone bowtie off Christopher Lee’s neck (he wore something similar at this ROM ceremony).

3. What you didn’t get to see on TV – Page 45

Makan time: After they were done with their make-up, the stars relak one corner and grabbed a quick dinner. The menu: fried bee hoon or nasi lemak.
