No, ugly does not = shallow, because if someone is shallow that does not necessarily mean they are ugly. Therefore you don't make any sh.itworth of sense. And, most people didn't say he looks hot, can't you read? [sarcasm] people are just saying he's got nice songs and how talented he is and not how handsome he looks.

The reason that many individuals here, myself included, are disagreeing with that other girl's comment is because
Why say 'no offense' when there is offense. Can I just say "No offense. You're UGGGGLLLLLLLLLYYY"? and you'll just be like "OH ITS ALL GOOD MATE!" rolleyes.gif How are we supposed to praise her coughretarded comment if it is?

And if she is right saying that about Jay, why can't I do the same? Rhetorical question~
Ok, what is your definition of shallow then? Because what she said was a prime example.. it should be published in a dictionary, instead with correct grammar of course.


Because she's actually seen Jay so she has a basis to judge on his looks on, while you on the other hand have never seen her, so your comment seems more like an attack. I know it was a rhetorical question, but I just had to say that.


But let's not make this thread hostile. I like Jay, he's talented, I like his rapping, though his singing isn't the best (in my opinion). I personally don't think he's hot. I mean there are way hotter people than him, but he's talented. There are a lot of good looking cpop entertainers (i refuse to call them singers), and many of them are crossovers from acting, but no matter how much better looking than Jay, they just don't possess that extra "omph" in their music. JAy isn't butt ugly, but he is no where near HOT, but his talent is what seperates him from other cpop singers. This is one reason I listen to Jay and not many other Cpop singers.

I admit though I do get kind of annoyed by his mumbling and some of his repetitive songs, along with his pissy attitude, but I still like some of his music. He's def. one of better cpop singers.

no offense. he's UGGGGLLLLLLLLLLLYYY.

but hes a great composer and has a nice voice... but still.. hes.. UGLY.


I don't see how this comment is shallow. She just said he was ugly, but still acknowledged that he composed well. Being shallow would be saying "He's ugly that's why I don't like his music," or "He's ugly and therefore he is a bad composer." Just stating your opinion on a star's looks doesn't mean your shallow, but if you attribute their talent to their looks, that's shallow.

"But this, like all journeys should be, was also a journey of the self, and I ultimately learned some intangible qualities of the human soul. A musical thread connects us, consistently from civilization to civilization. And that thread runs through you just as it does me. What patterns, and colors it will weave as the course of history plays out is only limited by our imagination and ability to dream." - Wang Leehom

Well, if she/he thinks Jay is so ugly and if she/he really does look better wouldn't she put up her photo just to prove to all of us? So it's quite obvious she/he isn't. And no, I wasn't attacking her. We were all just expressing our opinions about how shallow she is.

Take note of the structure of his/her words. She's restating the fact that she/he thinks he's ugly and exaggerating the words, which is completely unnecessary. Just like StarryEyeSurprise said, her friend said something like "He's funny and cool.. but really ugly and fat", that's not shallow? Stating how the guy is cool but that he's ugly too.

If what she/he said isn't shallow then what is it? A compliment?

I'm not arguing, just replying to the replies directed at me.

I think she should have a right to say Jay is ugly without being to prove that she is better looking. I mean what if she were ugly? Would that not give her the right to have an opinion that Jay was ugly? Does she have to be better-looking than Jay to call him ugly? And why does she have to prove to that she's good looking, just becuase she has an opinion that differs from his fans? If I think he dresses bad should I post up my wardrobe and prove that my wardrobe is better than his? Some people think Jay is hot, other's think he is ugly, I don't think people should take it so strongly because Jay isn't known for his looks anyways. I guess I would understand your annoyance if he was actually popular for his looks, but Jay is known for his music more so than his looks, so it's not like she's dissing his music, and that's all that matters in the end right? Looks fade, good art doesn't.

Just because someone is funny doesn't mean they can't be ugly and fat. I don't get how that's shallow. Rubben Studdard is a good singer, but he's fat. If I don't like Rubben Studdard BECAUSE he is fat then that would be shallow.

I don't know how it's shallow to DESCRIBE someone's physical appearance. It was not a compliment, it was what she thought he looks like. She thinks he's ugly. But she still aknowledges he's talented. So she is obviously "un-shallow" enough to see through his "ugliness".

Like someone said "Beauty in the eye of the beholder" So someone can think he is hot and another can think is ugly. But I think we are all gathered in this thread to describe our admiration for Jay music, not to argue how "hot" or "ugly" he is. You have your opinion, and I think she has a right to have her opinion without having to be called shallow.


Anyway...back on subject:
What do you guys think about Jay's new demo from November Chopin?

Ok, you are continually repeating your sentences/words. I get the point you are trying to express though.. sleep.gif

Yes, if you think someone else looks bad (and they look better than you), you shouldn't say they're ugly. Because that shows how shallow you are and that you sound extremely foolish because you're uglier. Clothes have nothing to do with it.

It IS her own opinion, but the way she said it was really shallow.

I would say more but I have to go now...

Yeah, I was repeating it so I could get my point across. I guess I did since you said you get the point I was trying to express smile.gif

I'm just using clothes as an example, becuase I really see no point for her to prove herself to be able to call Jay ugly. Jay is a public figure, so getting commented on his looks isn't something new.

I understand that your annoyed by the way she added the extra "but he's ugly". But I just felt that it didn't warrant her to prove her own physical beauty just because she felt he was ugly.

But it was a nice convo with you biggrin.gif

No hard feelings though, we're all fan of Jay's music when it comes down to it right?

Yea, we all just thought that her comment was really ignorant and superficial. Maybe superficial is a better word people would all agree on then, it's just the word that's causing so many disagreements..

Anyway, let's all stop arguing over that random comment. If she wants to come back and defend herself then be it~

Oh and I must add quote "you are probably uglier than him anyway" end quote. I didn't say she is DEFINITELY uglier since I never saw her photo. It was an opinion.. so I didn't insult her physical appearance. Just to clear that up. =)

Yes, it was a nice conversation~

And yes, Jay's music is good. Theres a new guy making similar music to him now.. dry.gif He sounds similar but obviously not as good as the original. Here's the link to the singer: http://www.music98.net/htm/7062.htm

^Click on the blue and white arrows to listen, especially listen to the 2nd song.

^ Oooo November~ thanks for the info
Haha but you know, A LOT of girls think he's totally hot/cute/sexy. I think I used to, as well.



Yeah, after they heard his music right?
I used to think he was monkey butt ugly.
Then I heard his music and was amazed.

and here's jay's new song preview from his new album:
http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=27MTJFG...XC324S4HLXUHPCN

its pretty much confirmed that it's his new song but just in case it's not, dont blame me.


Sorry, I'm gonna have to ask you to take that link down. =X
It's not Angela Zhang either. It's Lara from NQMM.
Amazing voice eh?
But Alfa (Jay's Company) is asking it not to be spread around.

Wow! Duet with Angela Zhang? I like her.

Admittedly, I've been a pretty bad Jay fan lately. I haven't actually kept up with ANY of my favourite artists this entire year, so I'm looking forward to Jay's new stuff.


Not Angela Zhang.
Lara from NQMM.




STOP ARGUING WHETHER JAY IS UGLY OR NOT.
1). Everyone is beautiful in their own way. Some may think he's ugly, some may think he's an angel from heaven.

2). OPINIONS PEOPLE.

3). I think he's ugly, but his talent makes him hot.

4). This is more like a picture thread discussion isn't it?
JAY CHOU PICTURE THREAD
See, I even provided the link for you.

5). The End.

Yeah, hahah.

Btw - Jay has been composing for Xiao Zhu (Show) I heard the song he composed was really good. I'll upload it when I have the chance.

[13/10/05]周董自封詩人 想當蕭邦
[13/10/05] Poet Jay wants to be Chopin

周杰倫喜歡「鋼琴詩人」蕭邦到瘋狂程度,自喻音樂風格貼近蕭邦,談戀愛也跟蕭邦一樣是姊弟戀,新專輯名稱叫 做「11月的蕭邦」,連取別名也都效法蕭邦封號叫做「詩人」﹗

Jay Chou likes 'Piano Poet' Chopin to an extent and compared oneself's style to be similar to Chopin, even for love life. His new album was named 'November's Chopin' and his nickname is also 'Poet'.

周董的第六張專輯「11月的蕭邦」十一月一日推出,依循他以往推出專輯的慣例,一定會遠赴世界某一景點取景 拍照,繼他到泰緬邊界、布拉格、海參崴等地取景後,這次他趁著赴威尼斯影展之便到水都拍照,更身兼造型師, 大膽地弄亂自己的頭髮。

Jay's 6th album, November's Chopin, is slated to be released on the 1st of November. As a usual practice to go overseas to take pictures for his past albums, he went to Venice this time and took charge to be his own stylist and took up the dare to mess up his own hair.

從「葉惠美」專輯開始,周董就自己打理專輯造型,血拚買衣服更不看品牌和價錢,周董身上這件金色西裝外套, 就是他在香港血拚的成果,倘若蕭邦聽到粉絲周董出手這般闊綽,可能也讓窮苦潦倒的他為之氣結吧 ﹗

Ever since YHM album, Jay has been his own stylist. Price and brand is not a concern when he shopped. The gold suit he's wearing was bought in Hong Kong. (Refer to gallery) Perhaps Idol Chopin will be angry if he had heard about his fan, Jay Chou, being a spendthrift while he's having a hard life. (Just a joke. )

因為太迷戀蕭邦,周董給自己取了「詩人」的別名,在專輯內頁的署名中出現。自許詩人感覺如何?周董說,當公 司提出「11月的蕭邦」作為專輯名稱時,從小學古典鋼琴的他覺得很棒,不僅因蕭邦是他的偶像,也覺得自己的 音樂風格比較貼近蕭邦的隨興浪漫,而南拳媽媽的宇豪則像是李斯特,技巧性比較厲害。

Because of Chopin, Jay picked 'Poet' as his nickname for his album. So how does he feel about it? Jay said that when the company proposed to use 'November's Chopin' as the title of his album, he find it great as he had been learning classical piano since young and Chopin is his idol. He felt that his music style is like Chopin who emphasized on easy-going and romantic while NQMM's Yu Hao is like Liszt who emphazised on technique.

周董新專輯未推出,一首周董與南拳媽媽LARA對唱的未發行歌曲六十秒DEMO,竟然在各大周董粉絲網站上 供大眾試聽,阿爾發唱片總經理楊峻榮大為震驚之餘更下令徹查,找到元兇不排除採取法律行動。阿爾發也希望各 站長能站在保護藝人的立場,主動撤下這首歌曲。

Jay's new album had not been released but there's already a 60sec demo version of an unreleased song Jay sang with NQMM Lara being posted on Jay's websites. Alfa Music GM JR Yang was astonished at the news and had instructed to find out the source. He might intend to take legal charges towards the offender. Alfa Music had expressed that hoping all webmasters were to remove this song as to protect the artiste.

honestly, I have not heard to a single taiwanese artist that I would consider awesome...Jay's ok I won't die listening to him, but I actually do have a bit of a problem with his songs sounding the same. The man's talented, and I can understand wanting to keep his style...but it is possible to innovate within a style.

Just my opinion. He's still ok, but his fangirls have to quit screaming in my ear about how godly hot he is or I'm gonna start bludgeoning some asian teenyboppers in the face. >=[
