Jessie Chung Performs in Sexy Dress at Ximending, Taiwan

Ximending Taipei, 12 November, 2016: Jessie Chung’s brand new album There You Are has recently gone gold in Taiwan, leading to a series of promotional events to reach toward a wider audience. Not only did she get her album endorsed at the album release press conference on October 24^th, Jessie Chung also performed at the Taiwan Ximending Launching Show on October 30^th, donning a sexy, ebony, see-through dress embroidered with gold. With her full-flowing, lush, golden hair, no wonder the press hailed her as a “Bond girl” look-alike.

Performing four songs at her launching show in Taiwan, she sincerely opened with “There You Are”, a touching ballad, and subsequently drove the crowd wild with “Drive My Heart”, an explosive rock anthem. Her showing off of her new dance moves and the fantastic interaction between her and her male dancers induced the screams and shouts of the Taiwanese fans below the stage. 

Her husband Joshua stayed below the stage to accompany her and take pictures of her, causing her much embarrassment when her team of dancers picked her up on stage, but she kept her composure as she beamed a shy smile. Jessie Chung spent more than a year in Australia to prepare for this album; under the plans devised by her Australian record company, she took on the so-called “Bond girl” style, despite her initial fears of the radical change. Changing her hairstyle from blunt bangs to side-swept fringe caused her significant insecurity, and she’s still getting used to it.

Jessie Chung reveals that “There You Are” is dedicated to the two most important men in her life, the memory of her father, and her husband Joshua. She recalls that her father passed away while she was promoting her previous album. Not being able to see her father at his deathbed, Jessie Chung wanted to use this song to thank him. The song is also dedicated to her husband for being besides her at all times. “Spend enough time to appreciate the people around us, that will save us a lot of regret when the final goodbye comes,” she says emotionally when asked about the past.

Besides performing her new songs, Jessie Chung also had great interaction with her fans, giving away James Bond-esque aviator sunglasses and heaps of exclusive heart shaped pillows to give her fans a great experience. While signing autographs, many enthusiastic fans gave Jessie and her team their praises, they were all satisfied by the electrifying event. She states that her first time in Taiwan was an unforgettable experience, and she looks forward to party again with her fans next time. Jessie Chung also reveals that her tight schedule in Taiwan has prevented her from tasting Taiwanese delicacies. She plans to wander through the night market with her husband upon completing the launching show and have an authentic taste of Taiwanese cuisine. 

After changing her gender identity, Jessie Chung has received a fair amount of cyber-bullying. Even till this day, ignorant netizens still attempt to verbally abuse her, such as questioning her singing talents. Regarding these criticisms, Jessie has shrugged them off and said, “The fact that whether or not I sing well is decided by my fans; as long as my fans like it, that’s enough for me; as long as they like it, that makes me happy and content.”  Jessie Chung states, “Although I feel hurt, these harsh criticisms only make me stronger and allow me to stand up and prove my motivation.” She’s very optimistic, and believes that words of encouragement and constructive criticisms alike are all helpful to her, as long as the words are spoken with sincerity.

Jessie Chung Meets Fans at Straits Quay Penang Hand Turns Numb from Signing Autographs

Penang, 21 October 2016: Jessie Chung reaches Penang Island to perform at her launching show, while long lines of fans had Jessie signing autographs for nearly two hours! She revealed that this was the first time an autograph session gave her a numb hand!

Immediately after completing the last Moonlight stage play at the Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (KLPAC), Jessie Chung showed up at Penang once again. This time, she wasn’t acting on stage at the Performing Arts Centre of Penang (penangpac) but rather she was performing on stage at an explosive launching show!

As the launching show started, Jessie Chung opened with her single “Someplace Honest”. Next, she performed “There You Are”, her album’s lead single, while thanking God for bestowing upon her life and allowing her to live healthily to this day. At the same time, she also exhorts her fans to look after their own health by drinking enough fluids and getting enough sleep and adequate exercise. She also took the opportunity to wish all “Penangers” good health. On the psychological side of health, she encouraged everyone to keep their heads up high at all times and never give up, because every person is unique. Upon saying these words, the beat to the song “Drive My Heart” began to blast through the amps, sending searing waves of excitement through the crowd!

All three new singles were performed, but fans were still shouting encore, and three songs didn’t seem to satisfy them. After a bit of commotion, Jessie Chung returned to the stage once again to perform her song “Moonlight”, which is also the theme song of her stage play of the same name. She expresses that time has gone by so quickly in the recent months; ten shows of the stage play have been completed in a flash. She passionately recited the lines “I want the moon, I don’t want spiders.” As she recalled the tragedy of the plotline, she had to hold back the tears in her eyes, causing her to pause sporadically throughout the song.

At the end of the show, Jessie threw many tiny love-shaped pillows into the crowd, while her fans frantically fumbled for them. Luckily security officers and other personnel came to the scene to form a wall between the stage and the crowd to maintain order, preventing injuries from occurring again. Finally, Jessie sang her hit song Starry Sky, an upbeat dance track, to wrap up her Penang launching show.

The launching show was sponsored by Natural Health Farm, St Tiew Dental Group, and Pollywood Pte; the site was sponsored by Straits Quay, and the show was organized by Future Entertainment & Music Group. The organizer prepared a raffle to giveaway prizes valuing in 10,000 RM in total, allowing all the participants to bring home a variety of gifts. Since so many fans desired to meet and take pictures with Jessie, the autograph and photograph session took approximately two hours to complete. Although her hand had turned numb from signing autographs, amiable Jessie had no complaints as she takes delight in making all of her fans’ days.

“Music Box” Stage Play World Tour Jessie Chung Shares Stage with Ex Fiancé

SPAC, 19 October 2016: After touring the country with ten performances of the “Moonlight” stage play, Australia’s Future Entertainment & Music Group has decided to release a new stage play, “Music Box”, giving Jessie Chung the opportunity to play a blonde-haired lady!  Press conference have been conducted at 19 Oct 2016 at Shah Alam Performing Arts Center (SPAC).

A streak of ten Exquisite Chinese Orchestra Concerts and the tenth Moonlight stage play performance presented by the Malaysia Naturopathic Association finally ended yesterday, the two shows have garnered strong support and interest from the public throughout 2016. From this year’s March to October, all twenty shows brought in a total of RM300,000 for the Jessie Chung Cancer Fund.

Director Brian Choot stated that “Music Box” will be based on a true story, and hopes that it will enlighten the audience with fresh inspirations and reflections. “Music Box” will also feature Jessie’s new song, There You Are, as its theme song.

Besides Jessie Chung, the cast also includes Moonlight’s male leads Marcus Choot and Tylor Chen. In addition, NHF’s CEO Vernon Tee will also join the cast with a long hairstyle to fully support this charity event. Jessie revealed that one of the three male leads is her ex fiancé. “Music Box” brings out three separate stories, based on Jessie’s experiences with her ex fiancé, her husband Joshua Beh, and her father. Since the plot line is quite similar to Jessie’s love story, many expect that the actors would be able to immerse themselves within the story.

When asked about her husband’s feelings and whether he would be green with envy or not, Jessie stated that although her husband and her ex fiancé were enemies more than a decade ago, they’ve actually turned into good friends afterwards; from an exchange of blows friendship grows, after all. This time, Jessie will share the stage with her ex fiancé, and all eyes will be watching to see what this special combination will spark.

Right after signing a record deal with Future Entertainment & Music Group in Australia, the company began to organize a series of launching shows to promote her new album “There You Are”. The launching shows at Kuching Boulevard and Sunway Pyramid have been competed, and upcoming launching shows include locations such as Penang Straits Quay (October 21^st, 2016), Taiwan Ximending (October 31^st, 2016), Kota Kinabalu, Miri, Sibu, Bintulu, Ipoh, Seremban, Kluang, Johor Bahru, Kedah, and Gold Coast Australia.

Besides holding launching shows nationwide and around the world, Jessie Chung will also return to Australia in November to film her sixth MV. As of this time, her Australian label is wrapping up the production of her next album, and the MV Jessie will be filming is the final MV of her next album.

Jessie calls her MV director a wild adventurer, always requesting her to film scenes that involve dangerous situations, such as standing on the edge of a cliff, playing “Need for Speed” in real life, and getting soaked in freezing rain, etc. Jessie’s lucky if she comes out of a filming session with only a cut or a bruise. The MC at the press conference even jokingly likened her MV shoots to action movie stunts, it must have been difficult for her to endure all these hardships along the way.

As for her next MV, Jessie Chung has also expressed her fears and concern, because the director plans to bring her to a European, Age of Discovery-type sailboat to capture scenes, and he also intends for Jessie to sing on the top of the mast. However, her Australian label manager has been quite upset after hearing Jessie getting hurt multiple times for the stunts in her MV, so the final decision is still uncertain.

Since Jessie’s schedule for this year is already full, “Music Box” will begin on the last day of this year, December 31^st at the Shah Alam Performing Arts Centre. The second show will be few days fresh into 2017, on January 5^th at the same location. Afterwards, “Music Box” will be taken to KL PAC (February 25^th & 26^th, 2017), Penang PAC (March 4^th & 5^th, 2017), Kuching (April 2^nd, 2017) and later on to Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, Dongguan, Shanxi, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Sydney, Gold Coast, Melbourne, New York, Hawaii, London, and Japan.

Ticket Price：RM120 / RM80 / RM50 / RM30

Jessie Chung – There You Are
Verse 1
Sometimes I lose my breath
When I think of you
Now you're gone
You built a place in my heart
That we will always call home
And belong

Bridge
My heart collides with a memory
That somehow sounds like a song

Pre-Chorus
Your memory it sings to me
Like a precious lullaby
Your love that soars on eagles' wings
Is blessed and sanctified

CHORUS
'Cause where there is love
There you are
Where there is hope
In the ever after
Where there's a song
With you in my heart
There you are
Play your part
And live in me

Verse 2
Sometimes I see your face
In our last embrace
Now you're gone
I recollect my tears
And the finest years
In a song

Bridge
Pre-Chorus

MV Director Scares Jessie Chung to Tears Jessie Paralyses in the Freezing Rain

28 September 2016, Gold Coast,Australia: :Jessie Chung, who is currently immersed within her hectic MV shooting schedule, came face to face with a life-threatening incident once again!

To film the MV for her single 【Someplace Honest】, Jessie Chung, her director, and other personnel rented a campervan to capture some scenes on the mountain. However, during the trip up the mountain, they approached a steep slope located on the edge of a cliff; the heavy campervan struggled to climb up, and the team got stuck halfway up the mountain.

Setbacks appeared, but the clock continues to tick, and the team couldn’t afford to lose another moment. Failure to arrive to the location before sunrise meant that they would lose the golden opportunity for an optimal shot. Knowing that, the director insisted to move forward, he had to get to the destination at all costs. As the campervan crept up the hill, it lost its balance and began to tilt towards the cliff. Luckily, some of the personnel were alert enough to get out and support the campervan, preventing a tragedy.

The close call literally scared Jessie to tears. “Everyone was shocked at that time. I was sitting in the cabin praying for our safety while climbing up the hill; the next second I knew, the campervan started shaking, and all personnel ran out of the campervan to help. I was sure that I was going to die in the valley this time, thank goodness nothing happened. Things could have been much worse.”

 In a short while, a car passed by, allowing Jessie Chung and her team to hitch hike their way up to the mountain.  

Paralyses in the Freezing Rain

To capture the atmosphere of the song, the director asked Jessie to sing in pouring rain. It was winter time in Australia, and the temperature was barely above ten degrees Celsius. Soaked wet by the freezing rain, Jessie shivered in the cold, but she held out. After enduring for more than ten minutes, her extremities began to turn bluish-purple, but the director was eager to get a few more precious shots. Towards the end, Jessie was so cold that she lost the ability to speak, and she sat paralysed in the rain. The director was frightened when he saw the situation, and he immediately carried her to somewhere warm.

“I felt the cold seething into my bones, and I was so cold that I couldn’t move, even my heart felt numb. The director asked if I was still alive, but I couldn’t answer him, because my mouth was cold and paralyzed too.” said Jessie emotionally, “Fortunately, I take good care of my health every day, otherwise I would have probably been dead.” Jessie also took the opportunity to warn all heart disease patients not to get soaked in cold rain.

Jessie Chung Marries Charming Caucasian in MV and Falls under a Spell a Once

GOLD COAST, 23 September 2016: Jessie Chung puts on the bridal gown once again, this time in Australia! Surprisingly, her bridegroom is a charming Caucasian!

Don’t get me wrong, that was just one of the scenes in Jessie Chung’s latest fairytale-like MV “Someplace Honest”. Director Elijah Cavanagh arranged for a dreamy wedding ceremony, delicately depicting a young girl’s eager heart waiting for the “big day”. An elegant bridal gown, traditional horse-drawn carriage, romantic garden, sweet-smelling corsages, and… a handsome Caucasian husband-to-be all placed Jessie under a dreamy spell!

“Australian men are so charismatic!” Jessie Chung stated during interview, bubbling up with anecdotes during MV shoot. She said that she felt like she was getting married again, but with a twist this time. To put on a bridal gown but not knowing who the bridegroom is caused her heart to go pit-a-pat.

Until the very moment she stepped on the red carpet, that was when she saw the actor from a distance. As she got closer and closer, Jessie said she felt like someone who is falling in love for the first time. Not knowing what to do, she was enraptured by Prince Charming. The actor gracefully took her tiny hand and smiled at her. “God, I was hypnotized by him! Thankfully I snapped out of my daydream when the director yelled ‘cut’,” said Jessie embarrassingly.

In the face of a formidable “rival”, her husband Joshua Beh was not going to play second fiddle; he maintained his prominence by looking after Jessie at all times. Wanting to capture the sentiment of thinking about a lover in the rain in one scene, the director asked Jessie to sing in the rain. With only thin clothing on, the freezing winter rain quickly penetrated Jessie, paralyzing every bit of her body.

 

After holding out for more than ten minutes, Joshua couldn’t stand it anymore. Before the director even yelled “cut”, he threw a blanket over Jessie and brought her on the car to get cozy. The director was taken aback by his actions. “No matter how romantic and dreamy this wedding is, I believe the person who loves me the most is my husband Joshua Beh,” said Jessie emotionally. Just like what the song expressed, he is the truest, dependable man.

Although the incident almost caused someone’s life, Jessie is nevertheless satisfied with the director’s work. She expressed her joy towards the MV, and stated that this MV is her favorite and the most enjoyable one to watch out of all her MVs. Both male and female audiences expressed their appraisals towards the final product, mainly because everyone longed for a picturesque wedding just like the one portrayed in it.

“Someplace Honest” describes a young girl’s desire, a longing for someone true to depend on. Following the current romantic wedding trend, Australia’s Future Entertainment & Music Group has decided to gift one lucky fan with an expensive Swiss-made Burberry diamond watch to wish everyone with a permanent and long-lasting love. The rules of the game are very simple, all the participant has to do is answer a short question to enter into the draw. Fans who are interested can go to Jessie’s Facebook page for more details.
