My Sassy Hubby (我老公唔生性) meet and greet (Charlene Choi and Ekin/Dior Cheng ,鄭伊健、蔡卓妍) - 29 Nov 2012

"My Wife is 18" made a rumble in HK box office back in 2002. What better way to milk more money from a cash cow than to plan for another sequel ? It's a long wait as it took producer James Yuen a decade before getting Ekin Cheng and Ah Sa to reprise their roles as 張十三 and Yoyo Ma. This is probably Ah Sa's first visit to Penang island. I'm totally baffled that Penang island instead of KL was selected for the movie premiere. Ah Sa was spunky and radiant (just don't ask her to speak...she still sucks in fans rapport). Soon-to-be groom, Ekin, is still in fantastic shape and ageing problem seems to elude him. The meet and greet is one of the shortest events I've attended. It lasted a miserable 15 mins which consists of almost nil interaction between stars and audience which was no fault of the artistes. The culprit is the lady emcee from 8TV. The emcee was grappling to get her act together. Can you imagine that Ekin felt the frustration and had to take charge?!!! Such unbecoming attitude from the emcee! After a brief introduction on their respective characters, the function ended after photo-taking and balloon bursting launch gesture.
