It’s Ni Ni with a koala! Beautiful + cute, no? If you want to see her interact with more animals, check out Hunan TV’s new reality show Wonderful Friends (奇妙的朋友). The first episode, which you can watch on YouTube, aired on January 24.

Other celebrities on the show include Li Yuchun, Myolie Wu, Du Haitao (the Happy Camp host), Huang Xuan, and Calvin Tu (Wei Hai in the Tiny Times movies).

Next Saturday, watch me and my “wonderful friends,” I’m so anxious with waiting

Jing Boran is getting a head’s start on Valentine’s Day by expressing his love for… himself. lol. His next project, the drama Love Across Millennia (相爱穿梭千年) with Zheng Shuang, will air on Hunan TV starting February 15. He also has a movie opening in theaters on March 20: Lost and Lonely (失孤), in which he’ll star as Andy Lau‘s abducted son.

Love you.

Qi Wei and husband Nathan Lee welcomed the arrival of their daughter, who was born in California on January 16. They’ve been calling her “Lucky,” which is hopefully just a nickname… to me, it just brings to mind that Top Combine song.

Nathan Lee: Mommy uses her hands [to hit me], you use your feet? Daddy will accept this gift of greeting. It will be greatest happiness this lifetime to be “bullied” by both of you… Finally, so nice to meet you… My little queen — “Lucky”! Daddy & Mommy Loves YOU…
Qi Wei: Gave birth, got promoted… Lucky Lucky oh my Lucky Lucky baby, so Lucky you&me (don’t say that I didn’t tell you all in secret!)…

He Jiong showed off a photo of him and Han Geng, which he is ecstatic about because it looks like they’re the same height. He Jiong is supposedly about 5’7″, while Han Geng should be 5’11”.

Han Geng shared this photo of him. The important thing is that we’re the same height. I felt a little happiness. I don’t know if this feeling is real…

Chen Qiao’en introduces us to her husband… work. Girl, we know how you feel. Exciting news, though — it looks like Cruel Romance (锦绣缘华丽冒险), her Republican-era drama with Huang Xiaoming, will be getting a release in either early March or late February. No official word from the production or from the TV channel, but either way, it will air on Hunan TV after The Legend of Fragrance finishes its run. Crossing my fingers that this news is true this time.

My date every day is “work.” My husband is called “work.” My sweet other half is “work.” This year~I got married again to “work.” This kind of sweetness is also intoxicating~

I always knew Jimmy Lin was secretly Superman! Haha jk. His movie Emperor Holidays (爸爸的假期), the latest spin-off film from the popular Where Are We Going? Dad reality show, hits theaters on February 19.

Setting off for work

Yang Mi plays third wheel to Guo Jingming and Chen Xuedong at Sina’s Weibo Night. She’s playing Zhao Mosheng in the movie adaptation of Silent Separation (何以笙箫默), which was previously adapted into a TV drama starring her bff Tang Yan.

The movie will also reunite Yang Mi with her fellow Tiny Times cast member Xie Yilin, as well as Return of the Condor Heroes star Huang Xiaoming. (Yeah, that was way back in 2006, but they had mad chemistry already then and they weren’t even playing a couple, so I have high hopes for the movie. *shifty eyes*). Also joining them is Tong Dawei and model He Sui.

Can we Photoshop out the person being of hindrance in the middle?

On January 25, Guo Jingming updated three times in a row with random pretty pictures of himself. (Not that we’re complaining lol.) This is his reason:

I forgot to upload one Weibo post. Friends, I look like this! This is actually the real, correct drawing style! MAN CRY! (In order to work responsibly during 2015, I have decided to post a year’s worth of Weibo entries this evening.)

Tian Liang reveals another glimpse of Cindy‘s athletic abilities as she starts doing pull-ups on clothing racks. Tian Liang and wife Ye Yiqian are currently on the variety show On The Road With You (一路上有你).

The elementary school girl wants dad to go and play with her. I said I’m busy so play inside, so Cindy took over the costume auntie’s clothing rack…

Lin Gengxin, who’s starring as the eponymous hero in the drama Zhao Zi Long (武神赵子龙), wraps up this round-up with a hilarious observation about life.

Lin Gengxin: Going to the bathroom while wearing an ancient costume is even harder than giving birth.

Netizen response has mostly been, “How would you know?” lulz. One of Weibo’s related hashtags was even “selfie in the bathroom” (#厕所自拍照#). Too bad Lin Gengxin didn’t include a selfie, but I guess that’d make going to the bathroom even more difficult!
