Questionably adorkable style, unquestionably romantic dude
If the latest revelations are legit, Chairman Chou deserves all the adulation from his army of supporters, and then some.
Here’s what we’ve learnt: Our beloved Mandopop prince hasn’t had sex for well, as long as he’s been seeing Hannah Quinlivan.
Addressing the press at a packed promo junket for his latest album, Jay was curiously candid; drunk on love, perhaps?
Quizzed on Hannah’s assertion that she would remain “chaste” until her wedding, Jay was reported to have said: “That’s right. We have to learn from Will Liu.” Sidebar: Will Liu (劉畊宏) is an ex-boyband member who was famously celibate for four years.
Also confirmed: Yes, the hugely hyped proposal did take place in London, on old-school bent knee and finished off with fireworks.
Debunked: Rumours that said proposal was at Hyde Park. Pressed about the existence of photos of him on the garden grounds, Jay says nay: “I was chased by fans that day, and in the end, I took some photos with them. I didn’t expect them to post the photos. They thought that I had proposed there. There were so many people there. How could it be possible?”
Asked to describe future Mrs Chou’s reaction that day, Jay said: “Any sentimental person would cry.” Aww, sweet.
As if all this weren’t enough to cement Jay’s burgeoning rep as sweetest dude ever, get this: He’s yearning for children of his own to coddle: “I am the only son, and I feel lonely during Christmas. I want to have five kids to form a band. In future, Christmas will be very lively.”
Swoon. As per his new album’s title: Aiyo, Not bad (哎呦,不錯哦)!
