Nephand Posted April 18, 2004 at 07:41 PM Report Posted April 18, 2004 at 07:41 PM hparade: I agree, the only one I actually own of Will Young's is 'leave right now', his first album especially was just re-records and bland pop crap. Quote

bhchao Posted July 20, 2004 at 10:37 AM Report Posted July 20, 2004 at 10:37 AM That article is a satire. William Hung went to Berkeley, not Stanford. Quote
SassybutSweet Posted July 21, 2004 at 06:33 AM Report Posted July 21, 2004 at 06:33 AM How come when someone mentions the mockery William Hung is making of himself they always bring up BLACK PEOPLE?! I mean what dose BLACK have to do with an indvidual who is making a fool of hiself?! You said:"Why not make fun of some BLACK retard instead?!" Wht don't you wacth what you say?! Not all users are asian, some are BLACK!! It was a poor choice of words!! Exspeacialy since this really is not about race, William Hung is just what people see as a joke because he dose not mind making a mockery of himself!! He is proud to make fun of himself in the sense that he knows he can't sing but dose it publicly anyway!!! If you give people something to laugh at they will, no matter what race you are!!! When I look at William Hung I see a ridiculous person, not a ridiculous person who is representing a whole race!! How can you let someone you don't even know represent you?! If he is a joke he is a joke to himself, not to anyone else of his race!!! I don't see why some take it personal, if people want to jugde you by Hungs actions thats their problem not yours!! I personaly do not like him, I went to one of his sites and a fan wrote:"William Hung you rock!! When is your next concert?!" He was too stupid to understand it was a complament that he said:"At your house to bang your stupid mother!!" Now what was that?! I don't think that his brain can comprehend things very well!!! I find him a very strange and rude individual!!! Quote

keith Posted July 22, 2004 at 02:11 AM Report Posted July 22, 2004 at 02:11 AM I just checked out his website. I'm sorry to say this but... He's not even remotely good-looking! Poor Will - he's a laughing stock - and now everyone thinks all HK guys look like him... Quote
SassybutSweet Posted July 23, 2004 at 06:51 AM Report Posted July 23, 2004 at 06:51 AM He is pretty bad looking!!! He sounds as bad as he looks!! But I know that not all Hk guys look like that, they are goodlooking!!! He's just one that missed out on the looks!!! I feel sorry for him too!!! Quote
Lu Posted July 23, 2004 at 12:57 PM Report Posted July 23, 2004 at 12:57 PM As embarrassing to look at as most Idols candidates... I can't say I understand why he got famous. Quote
keith Posted July 24, 2004 at 06:53 PM Report Posted July 24, 2004 at 06:53 PM As embarrassing to look at as most Idols candidates... I can't say I understand why he got famous. Hmm, I think I will have to agree with the other people above - The American media is basically taking the mickey out of him, poor Will. And making a quick buck too. I think his "fans" are also either taking the mickey or they have been paid by the media to act as fans (just like that useless flop JUNO in HK whose Dad is mega-rich) But then again the British tabloids are pretty awful too Thankfully we still have world-class boradsheet like The Times, The DailyTelegraph, The Independent, The Guardian etc Quote

Ian_Lee Posted July 29, 2004 at 12:45 AM Author Report Posted July 29, 2004 at 12:45 AM Quest: C'mon.....What do you expect Will to act in the movie? Sun Yat Sen or Zhou Enlai? William never expected to be any kind of role model for Asian Americans as so many posters expected from him. And why should he be? Why shouldn't our posters themselves act as role models? He only desires fame and wealth. And in the American society, fame and wealth are linked. If Monica Lewinsky could shamelessly publish books about her affair with Clinton to gain fame, then why can't William Hung gain fame by his lousy dance and song as long as there is a demand in the market?

Quest Posted July 29, 2004 at 09:18 AM Report Posted July 29, 2004 at 09:18 AM haha chill Ian, he can do whatever he wants, but it is certainly not a good thing for the rest of us. not like I am yelling " go away Hung, stop that xxxx already!!" Quote
Ian_Lee Posted July 31, 2004 at 02:08 AM Author Report Posted July 31, 2004 at 02:08 AM Some more latest news about William Hung. He just went to Hong Kong to make his new movie. Thirty-plus reporters but not even one single fan greeted him at the airport. Read: http://hk.news.yahoo.com/040730/60/12zno.html On the other hand, his new album "Inspiration" circulation has exceeded 100,000 copies and its sales rank in Amazon.com is 1,688 (quite high).
