previous few episodes. This time around, the featured TVB artiste is Nancy Wu 胡定欣
who
has come over to Malaysia TNT Kickboxing centre to film the “Muay Thai” themed episode of “星级健康2”.
In
the recent years, Thai style kickboxing has become the latest trend. It is not
as rough as we imagined. In fact, it is a very good sport for women to keep
their bodies fit. In order to become the host for this episode, Nancy has trained for quite some time
in kickboxing. Apart from training, Nancy was also arranged to have a friendly
match with Malaysia famous fighter Ella
Tang 陈佩彬!
This
friendly match is a three-round match with Ella
Tang陈佩彬. The judge for the match is
the international fighter champion Master
Khoo. In order to perform well, Nancy has come over to the centre earlier
to get some advice from Master Khoo
and she has undergone some training prior to the match. Worth-mentioning is,
Nancy and Master Khoo will also demonstrate and teach the audience about the
basics on how to do self-defense during her episode of the show.
Besides,
Thai Kickboxing is a sport which emphasizes a lot on being muscular for the
advantage in fights. Thus, during this episode of “星级健康2” , Nancy will also be
cooperating with professional dietician in sharing the tips on how to gain
muscles and how to reduce fats for the body.
“星级健康2”is a
health programme show which combines the elements of many sports and involves

311) and Astro 至尊HD (CH 310)
simultaneously.
Media Q&A with Nancy Wu:
During
the filming, we media members were given the opportunity to interview Nancy,
What do you think about hosting the thai
kickboxing themed episode?
Every
artistes involved were to pick up a sports which they felt more related with.
Somehow I was automatically being tasked for this theme due to my previous
involvement in 拳王“Gloves Come Off”. I
haven’t been training for quite some time until a few days before the filming
today. This time is a bit different from the past because previously it was
just acting. This time around, the friendly match felt like a real match.
However, it is a good way to test my ownself on my endurance and would also be
a good experience for me.
Are you interested in fighting movies?
Actually
I am always interested in fighting genre. It’s actually a big challenge for me
since “Gloves Comes Off” because Thai kickboxing does not have much of gears.
Thus, it was quite difficult for me at first. However, since I could overcome
the challenge in the past, I wouldn’t mind if opportunity is given to me in the
future in other style of fighting.
Do you think kissing a girl in your “The
Ultimate Addiction 点金胜手” a challenge too?
I
think it is more like a psychological test. This type of scene is not common in
usual drama. However, the intention of the kissing is not a romantic intention,
it is just a test to see whether Kate’s character was really lesbian in the
drama. It is a memorable acting experience for both her and Kate.
What do you think of the stopping of “The
Ultimate Addiction 点金胜手” airing in China mainland?
Well,
actually after a while we realized that there were really some minor elements
which might be a bit sensitive in a few seconds of the scene. However, the
appearance of the element was really very brief and not really intentional. It
is such a waste because I heard that the viewership was quite good in China
mainland before it was stopped from airing. Hopefully when it is being aired
again, the viewership would be that high again. Bosco and I really wished to
have the chance to go to China Mainland to promote the drama. “The Ultimate Addiction 点金胜手” finale
will be aired this week. I hope that the rating would be high for the finale of
the show in HK.
What’s your current plan in acting?
Before
I came here to Malaysia, I just finished filming a drama for the past three
months. It have been quite hectic too to promote “The Ultimate Addiction 点金胜手”. Following this, I
would be taking part in the movie version of “Triumph In The Skies 衝上雲宵”. I haven’t told the HK
audience yet about this.
HK media reported that you have planned
to take half-a-year break?
I
have responded to those media for many times in a year. Actually it is not true
because I am putting my work as a priority first. I have no plan to get married or have
children at the moment. Currently, I felt that I am at another stage of my
career. So I will try to take the chances and do my best in career first.
Recently you have taken photographs of Myolie
in swimsuits, do you plan to release a photobook?
I
would be keen to do so. Actually the photos taken that day could be used to
make a photobook I think. (laughter)
Myolie
loves to be captured in photographs to keep as memories while young. But I
personally don’t like to be photographed. So usually I would just become the
photographer for them.
Your character in “The Ultimate Addiction 点金胜手”
has received many positive feedback from the audience. Do you think you could
win any awards with that character?
Honestly,
I think the feedback was a little bit unexpected. I have never expected that
the audience would like the character. I also wished to know how the Malaysian
audiences think of the character. Hope that Malaysian fans will love our drama.
About
winning awards, I think it’s still too early to think about it because there
will be more dramas and characters in the next half of the year. I have tried
my best and I am already quite satisfied with the reception now. It all depends
on fate then. But I do hope my character could be nominated though.
That’s
all for the media Q&A session.
