Taiwan-based Malaysian singer Gary Chaw reportedly hasn't moved on from ex-wife: 'Still in pain'
It's been nearly three years since Malaysian singer Gary Chaw divorced Taiwanese fashion blogger Wu Shuling, but it seems he hasn't fully moved on. The 46-year-old recently shared on Xiaohongshu (Red Note) a video of himself singing his 2019 song I'm Just A Fool – a ballad in which he confronts his shortcomings and expresses his unconditional devotion. The post quickly drew attention, with many netizens praising Chaw's soulful vocals, while others shared how the performance evoked a deep sense of nostalgia. According to China Press, Chaw also left two comments about Wu under his video. The former couple, who divorced in November 2022 after 14 years of marriage, share two children – Joe, 16, and Grace, 14. 'I still haven't forgotten Shuling,' read one of the comments. 'Actually, I'm still in pain,' he wrote in another. It's reported that Chaw later deleted both comments mentioning Wu. This isn't the first time the singer has shown that he's still struggling to move on. In July 2023, Chaw made a series of Instagram posts about his ex-wife and their children – including a throwback wedding photo of him and Wu smiling blissfully. 'I'm messed up... But I still love her,' he wrote at that time. A few months later, while performing his song Zhang Wen during a concert in Taipei, Chaw altered the original lyric 'There is no winning or losing' to 'There is no Shuling'. 'I still love her… Taking it one step at a time,' he said back then.

(Video) Pan Mei Chen Couldn't Perform In Malaysia For Years Because She Was Betrayed By Protégé
Over the weekend, Taiwanese singer Pan Mei Chen (潘美辰) performed at Arena of Stars, marking her long-awaited return to Malaysia. During the show, she candidly revealed why it took her nearly a decade to return for a performance. The Mandopop star performed at Arena of Stars on 2nd August 2025 (Saturday) as part of her 'Returning Home' World Tour. Since the show marks her first concert in Malaysia after eight years, the audience was mostly fans who had been waiting a long time to watch Pan Mei Chen perform live. While international stars have many reasons for not performing in a country, the singer said her reason for not returning to Malaysia was very personal. The singer revealed that she had signed a Malaysian singer to her agency many years ago and had planned to bring him to Taipei to debut. However, the singer secretly entered a singing competition without Pan Mei Chen's consent. Shockingly, the singer claimed not to know the Mandopop icon and even blocked her contact after winning the contest. Understandably, the experience of being betrayed by her beloved mentee traumatised Pan Mei Chen. The singer-songwriter said she couldn't set foot in Malaysia for many years because she felt betrayed by her former protégé. The singer never revealed what changed her mind. However, it's possible that her fans in Malaysia helped encourage Pan Mei Chen to return. During the concert, the star made sure to interact with her fans as much as possible, even walking amongst the audience to get closer to fans. Throughout the night, Pan Mei Chen performed all her classic hits, including her most popular track, 'I Want A Home'. As the concert came to an end, the star thanked all the fans who attended, as well as some special guests. She also expressed her heartfelt gratitude towards her fans in Malaysia, saying, 'You must remember that I, Pan Mei Chen, have never forgotten Malaysia. This is from the bottom of my heart.' Pan Mei Chen also promised to return to Malaysia more often, saying she won't take another eight years to perform here again. While we wait for the next concert, here are some videos from her show at Arena of Stars: Source: China Press

(Video) HK Star Law Kar Ying Exhausted His Savings After 4th Battle With Cancer
Hong Kong star Law Kar Ying (罗家英) has had an illustrious career in show business since the 70's. However, behind his success, the actor has been battling cancer for many years. After revealing his fourth cancer diagnosis, the 78-year-old shares the toll it has taken on his finances. The renowned opera singer recently appeared on a talk show where he talked about life after his fourth cancer diagnosis. Law Kar Ying revealed his diagnosis during an interview in May 2025. The actor was first diagnosed with stage three liver cancer in 2004, and later had part of his liver removed to save his life. Ten years later, doctors discovered a 2cm tumour in his liver during a routine medical checkup. Later in 2019, Law Kar Ying was diagnosed with prostate cancer. However, Law Kar Ying revealed on the talk show that his savings have depleted after years of battling cancer. During the interview, the 'A Chinese Odyssey' actor admitted to never having insurance because he doesn't believe in them. Therefore, all his medical expenses, including his surgeries to remove his tumours, were paid for with his savings. The show host also asked if his wife, renowned Hong Kong star Liza Wang (汪明荃), has provided him with any financial support throughout his many cancer battles. In response, the actor said, 'I have never asked my wife for help. I don't need her help. Don't ever tell her about it. She hasn't asked to help either because she knows I have savings.' However, Law Kar Ying quipped that he would be happy if his wife were willing to help with his medical expenses. During the interview, the star also candidly spoke about his plans to forgo chemotherapy and radiotherapy for his recent cancer diagnosis. He previously mentioned he won't undergo the treatments because of his old age. He said, 'The cancer is no longer controllable. What can I do? Eight years from now, I'll be in my eighties. After chemotherapy, I'll be half-human, half-ghost. What's the point of living like that?' In the comments, netizens praised Law Kar Ying's positive attitude toward his health issues. Many also extended well wishes for the actor, hoping he'll beat cancer for the fourth time. We also wish all the best for Law Kar Ying and his health.
