Jay Chou has had his share of rumors, but he has always kept his lips sealed on his personal life. He has admitted to his previous relationship with newly-engaged Patty Hou, but has denied allegations that Taiwanese pop star Jolin Tsai is also his ex-girlfriend.
A few days ago he and Chi-ling Lin went onto “Shen Chun Hua Life Show”, where he was asked if he had had “countless” relationships. Not wanting to appear cocky by the media, Jay hastily replied, “Actually, I have only been in two relationships,” finally confirming his past connections with Patty Hou and Jolin Tsai. However, he still denied any relations with his current “J-Girl”, Jessie Chiang.

When Host Shen Chun Hua asked him which two relationships he had been in, he played dumb, asking “Oh? Did I say that? Well let everyone go home and watch the replay then.” He then proceeded to avoid the question, asking the host to talk about Chi-ling’s love life instead.

Although Jay stubbornly refused to reveal with which two people he has had relationships with, he once said that “a girlfriend is someone I can put my arm around.” Interestingly enough, in 2005 he was photographed with his arm around Patty Hou on the streets of Japan, exposing their relationship. They dated for about a year before breaking it off.

The media began circulating with reports of a relationship
between Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai in 2003. Jolin, after years of relentless questioning by the press, publically admitted their former relationship, but until now Jay still denied the “Double J” romance. Since the Chou-Hou relationship was revealed by photos from the paparazzi on their excursion to Japan, Jolin was the last to know and it ultimately created tension between the two former lovers. Jay Chou finally loosened his lips and by admitting to having two past relationships, indirectly admitted to the “Double J” relationship.

However, regarding his supposed current flame Jessie Chiang, Jay brushed aside the accusations, commenting, “The media takes a picture of something and calls it something else.”

“I haven’t been photographed by them for the past 2 years because my paparazzi-dodging skills have vastly improved,” Jay managed to joke, “but in all seriousness I do eat dinner with other people too.” However, he and Chiang have been spotted not only eating dinner, but playing basketball and riding motorcycles together. She even has a copy of Jay Chou’s garage key. But he remains tight-lipped about the situation, continuing to say that she’s just “one of the guys.”

He also doesn’t hesitate to suggest a possible romance with his “Treasure Hunter” co-start Chi-Ling Lin. He and Chi-ling are now close friends who often talked about very personal issues. What kind of personal issues? That’s the “Secret” they can’t tell you.

In “The Treasure Hunter” Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling’s greeting towards each other was unexpectedly a poke in the belly! The two went onto “Kang Xi Lai Le” for promotion, Xiao S forced Jay Chou to answer the question about whether she was prettier or Lin Chi Ling, and she also asked which photo book he would buy of the two? Jay Chou cleverly answered: “I will buy yours! Because Lin Chi Ling is a very uptight person, there’s nothing to see in her photo book, but you are different.”

As soon as Jay Chou got on “Kang Xi Lai Le” he said to Xiao S: “I often yell while watching this show, some people talk nonsense, and I think it’s about me.” Once Will Liu was on “Kang Xi Lai Le”, he said Jay Chou snores when he sleeps, every time they flew Jay Chou would ask him “If I fall asleep and snore, remember to wake me up.” Jay Chou admitted to this, sometimes before getting on a plane, he would ask workers to wake him up if he snores.

Xiao S pressed Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling about whether or not they called each other during filming? The two admitted they had each other’s number, if anything happened to either of them they would send texts of concern, Jay Chou even revealed: “I’ve once poked her belly”. Lin Chi Ling admitted having a good feeling towards Jay Chou, she said: “I think you must have a good feeling towards someone you work with, otherwise how will you film a scene together?”

Something interesting happened when Jay Chou filmed “The Treasure Hunter”, in one fight scene he got poked in the eye and it really hurt, he was alarmed as his vision became more and more blurred, he thought he was going blind! It was because his contacts fell out!

On the 25th of December, the movie “The Treasure Hunter” held its premiere in Taipei, the male and female leads Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling arrived holding hands. But perhaps it was due to not wanting to start any rumours, when the two went onstage the interaction between them seem a bit cold.

Yesterday night Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling attended the premiere of “The Treasure Hunter”, there were a few hundred fans there nearly going crazy, the stage was about to burst with so many, they nearly lost control there. When the two walked on the red carpet, they held hands all the way, but when they go onstage, the interaction between them seem to be a bit cold, maybe it was because they didn’t want any rumours, when they were interviewed the director Zhu Yan Ping stood between them, maintaining “a safe distance apart”.

With this being their first time on the silver screen together, Jay Chou and Lin Chi Ling admitted that they knew each other beforehand, so it was very easy to gain a mutual understanding, they got into the movie very fast. For one scene in the desert where they drink alcohol and talk, Zhu Yan Ping especially let them drink real alcohol, they performed under a bit of intoxication to add even more flavour to their performance. For the last two days the two have been running around promoting “The Treasure Hunter”, but they both said that they felt the happiest returning home, they are also looking forward to audiences in Taiwan giving this big movie, that they put a lot of effort into, their passionate support. Jay Chou thinks that his role had action, friendship and love, it was very rich in content, his desire for acting was fully satisfied.

Lin Chi Ling is not just the female lead in “The Treasure Hunter”, she is also the lyricist and singer of the ending song, she especially asks audiences not to leave too early so they can have a listen to her first time singing.

After his ex-girlfriend was being pressurized by the media, Jay Chou doesn’t dare to fall in love again and even jokingly mentioned that his rumoured girlfriend Jiang Yu Chen is really unlucky!

Jay Chou and Lin Chi-ling, together with director Kevin Chu, arrived in Singapore two days ago to promote their latest movie The Treasure Hunter.

At the press conference, Jay was in a really good mood. During the interview, apart from answering to the questions posted, he even brought up his rumoured girlfriend, Jiang Yu Chen.

He mentioned that his character is similar to his role in The Treasure Hunter. When he is fond of someone, he will not make it clear to the person, instead, he will observe if the other party feels the same way as well.

However, at the same time, he too feels that love is about cherishing and when one meets the right person, they should grab the opportunity.

When probed if he had found the right girl, Jay replied, “(I’m) still searching. I’m afraid of rumours, thus I don’t dare to make female friends. Although I have quite a number of female friends, whenever we are out together, the media will take photos of us. Even when we are out in a big group, the media will say that we are dating!”

“My previous girlfriend was pressured by the media too much. Actually, it’s tough to be my girlfriend. Thus, I don’t have any intention of having a girlfriend for now, and being single is better. However, even when I’m single, the media still make up a lot of stories. I guess only after I’m married then will rumours stop!”

When asked if he was referring to Jiang Yu Chen, due to the recent “hotel photos” saga, he said, “Yu Chen is really unlucky… I’ve known her for very long already, but because during this period, I haven’t made new female friends, so rumours about us have continued.”

He laughingly said, “She used to have a lot of suitors! But luckily she’s now partnering Yuri (Chan) , so the media can switch to write about them!”

When asked if he will develop feelings for Chi-Ling, he said, “She is the type of girls that many guys will like. We have been friends for so long! Actually, she has a guard against people, especially guys, but because I’m acting with her in this movie, she feels more at ease.”

This year, every city hosting New Year concerts has invited many entertainers. Many artists must once again travel from one stage to another. This year’s busiest artist must be Wang Lee Hom who is going from Taipei, then Taoyuan and later Taichung. But the three performances in total will earn him nearly 550,000,000 TWD. As for Lin Chi-Ling who is currently promoting her new movie, she will be performing on the Taipei stage. Her performance will include dancing Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry”.

As for the dividing of performances between artists, A-mei and Stefanie Sun will not be included in the welcoming of 2010. Stefanie Sun is currently busy with her concert tour while A-mei does not accept schedules to New Year events. So Lin Chi-Ling will be this year’s ending performance. Although she has promotions with Jay Chou, she will reportedly perform the “Sorry Sorry” dance for low pay.

Mayday will bring their own orchestra for a special performance. During this New Year, they will not be rushing from stage to stage. Instead, the band has broken a new record of pay per performance: 250,000,000 TWD. Wang Lee Hom’s schedule makes him this New Year’s biggest earner. It seems that when spaces are made available, others hurriedly come to replace them. But it is also possible when different artists come to perform, new sparks will arise.
