BoA to make her Hollywood Film Debut in 2012

Listen to podcast:
BOA Hollywood film debut (110624) by CherriiPOP



BOA is set to make her Hollywood Film debut early next year - This is incredibly exciting new for BoA fans. She plays the female lead in the dance film COBU 3D. Her male lead is Derek Hough from US TV show Dancing with the stars.

The movie is directed by Duane Adler and produced by Robert Colt. I was reading a bit about the film, and it sounds like a Romeo and Juliet story. Basically their characters fall even though their families are enemies in the dancing world.

I love dance films, but sometimes they focus too much on the dancing and not enough on the storyline. I hope that this film has a good storyline because I know Boa and Derek and awesome dancers. They’ve got the dancing part nailed.

BoA is currently filming the movie in the States. She recently tweeted a photo on set. She looks really relaxed and happy. I can’t wait to see her film!

She follows the foot steps of Rain who has starred in 2 Hollywood films: Ninja Assassin and Speedracer. The Korean Wave is making a big impact in Hollywood.

Sandown Tet Festival Weekend (Saturday - 5th Feb 2011)

Happy Tet Everyone!! Hope you are enjoying all the New Year celebrations with your family and friends!

The largest TET festival in Melbourne held @Sandown Racecourse is on this weekend!! I went yesterday with my gal pal Skye and we had a blast!!

What I love about Tet Festivals is the lively and fun atmosphere! There were carnival games, rides, delicious Vietnamese food, exhibitions and Live entertainment!



Singer Y Phuong, entertaining the audience

One of the main attractions @ the festival is the live entertainment show! I thought it was cancelled this year because we couldn't find the stage. However, through the night we found it hidden on the other side of the grounds. Due to the heavy storms on Friday (which caused flooding in many areas in Melbourne), the organisers decided to move the show undercover! Usually the stage is in the main part of the grounds and the audience can sit in the stadium. When we got to the entertainment area we found out the main act was the beautiful Vietnamese singer Y Phuong. She is from Asia Productions. She wore this sparkly gold dress that really lit up the stage. The crowd absolutely love her!! They sung along with her and cheered loudly after every song.



Skye and I went on the carnival ride Skydiver, it looked pretty fun! Small children seemed to love the ride. So we went on, and it was frightening! It spun really fast and started to elevate really high! I was like practically crying! I was so scared and screaming like a maniac! haha. I was pretty disoriented after but it was pretty fun!

Here are pictures of other rides at the Tet festival



I love Tet festival food! This type of food you do not get in Vietnamese restaurants. So at festivals I eat a lot of food!! I was too busy eating and forgot to take photos of the food available! Well the food I ate included bot chien, banh khoc, nuoc mia hahaha mmmm...

Here are some of the cool displays at the TET festival! Quite amazing stuff









The Festival is also held on Sunday 6th February! It's worth checking out!! Have fun and Happy Tet!!
