    Musical talent, Wang Lee Hom, attended the Coca-Cola Open Happiness summer campaign's beach party held in Shanghai yesterday. He also performed the new campaign theme song, 'Open Happiness'. Lee Hom was very kind and gentle when he answering the reporter's interviews. Facing (yet again) the rumours of an American "boyfriend", he was very calm. He suggested everyone to learn from Michael Jackson's music, to understand and accept different lifestyles.

    Requests permission to use the bathroom

    Lee Hom's rode a speedboat, arriving at the party with a grand entrance. During the interview session, everyone thought Lee Hom would have acted a little "diva-like" and arrive late on purpose. However, everyone was surprised when he arrived right on time to ask the reporters for permission to use the bathroom first before the interview. "Excuse me, I have to use the toilet, please wait a little while." Without any delay, he rushed back three minutes later and kept apologizing, "Sorry for making you wait." During the interview, he didn't avoid sensitive questions at all and tried to answer properly. He even joked a little, all smiles on his face, he looked like he was in a good mood. The reporters said that such well-mannered artists are difficult to find nowadays.

    Suggests accepting different lifestyles

    Ever since his debut, rumors of him with various female celebrities like A-Mei and Shuqi had surfaced. However, his gay rumors are neverending. Lately, there has been another rumor spreading in the Web about his "boyfriend" in New York. When faced with his question yesterday, although the MC tried to interrupt the reporters, Lee Hom didn't show an unhappy face. He kept his smile and brought up his late senior, Michael Jackson. "Jackson and I had the same music teacher. I'm also very close with his sister, Janet. Jackson's music influenced me a lot, especially the songs he wrote for charity, teaching everyone to value life, to accept and understand different lifestyles."

    Plans to cover Jackson hits

    Lee Hom is currently preparing for his Music-Man concert tour around China. He mentioned last month during his promotions at Chongqin, he promised the fans there that he would bring a "superhero" to their home. "I will keep my promise. I must present the Chongqin audience with a gift." He added, "This time I want to shed my previous sophisticated and sunny image, put on a black leather jacket matched with metallic accessories, silver and blue metallic gel on my hair. I believe I'll give Chongqin fans a surprise." Lee Hom added he wants to perform Jackson's songs in his concert to remember his "senior".

    ^ I dunno, it would be a waste if he was gay but in the end... his music is great n hes a good artist so for me as a fan I dont really care as long as hes doing his job efficiently...

    & Dont get me wrong, I really like Leehom but... him covering MJ's songs... not too sure abt that....

    well he could be cos if he wasn't gay wouldn't he just reply saying that he was straight. then again he might be bi as he didn't answer. though his sexual orientation shouldn't rele affect his music in my opinion but i guess with the asian audience it could affect sales.

    i agree with u cheeks that i'm not sure about him singing mj's songs.
