    The controversial social setting of Inbound Troubles <老表,你好嘢!> has made the comedy television serial into one of the most-discussed dramas in town. Praised for its realistic social commentary, the drama reflects on the dramatic cultural differences between Hong Kongers and their mainlander cousins.

    With its highly successful ratings, Inbound Troubles also brought fame to several its main stars, including “Little Tiny” May Chan (陳嘉佳) and “Caucasian Girl” Corinna Chamberlain (陳明恩). Even Inbound Troubles young screenwriter, 22-year-old Mo Mo (吳沚默), is getting her fair share of headlines in the news.

    Corinna Chamberlain, a 31-year-old Hong Kong-born Caucasian actress, has used this rising opportunity to release her first Cantonese plug, “Different Species” <異種>. “White” on the surface but “yellow” at heart, Corinna sings about the struggles in living as a “different species” in a land of homogeneity.

    “Different Species” is written and produced by John Laudon (劉諾生), a regular collaborator with Janice Vidal (衛蘭) and Corinna’s Inbound Troubles costar, Wong Cho Lam (王祖藍). Cho Lam also helmed the lyrics for “Different Species.”

    Corinna graduated from the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts, where she studied musical theater and dance. Prior to joining TVB, Corinna worked as a backup vocalist for several Hong Kong singers. Corinna is also a choreographer and a dance teacher.

    Taste in women is a very personal thing; if you don't believe me, ask your father. -cool2

    I personally think she's overrated... It feels like she's this popular because she's non-Asian.

    I think she is very talented! She sings very well and she is also very pretty. Not sure if it's because she is a white girl who speaks Chinese lol.-lol

    She's good, not because she's white and can sing Chinese, but she does possess the singing skill (compare to those wannabe singers).

    With some good producers, she can easily have some hit singles.

    Perhaps becoming friends with Ivana in the Inbound Trouble series, Ivana can compose some music for her in the future.

    I guess the old saw about a fruit never falling far from the tree is correct.

    That's true! Becoming friends with Ivana might just be what she needs! Hopefully we can hear more from her in the near future.

    Really? Are you really 'sry' ?

    Everything I said was neutral, while every one of your comments to me was negative; if you really didn't want to start a flame war, then why continue? I suppose if I was the one commenting on your taste and calling it bad; then that's supposedly OK? Asking you to seek counsel from someone that presumably has more maturity, that you supposedly respect (like your father) and you're angry about that? Enough to then go and say that my father also "likes ugly women" ie. implying that my mother is ugly?

    Let me end this here. Having bad taste is probably a lot better than having bad manners. Note, I'm not saying that you have bad manners, but if you feel that the description fits, then by all means you're welcome to it. :rolleyes2:

    everything you said was very ambiguous (if you didn't realize yet, welcome to the internet), now now, don't act all innocent.

    but yes, let's leave it here.
