Recently much coverage was given to a former Taiwanese screen goddess who visited Hong Kong. The lady in question is Joey Wang who had retired from the entertainment circle for many years after having migrated to Canada. In her young days, Joey was an eye-catching beauty. Unfortunately, this time around the media hadn't been very kind on the way she looks. Even netizens were in on the game. They speculated that she had cosmetic surgery or botox at the very least. She was labelled as a faded beauty. Then there were her fans who posted more pleasing pictures of her and insisted that her beauty had never waned and she looked as youthful as ever.
Well, if you ask me, I think she looks more auntie than goddess now. Obviously she has gained some weight. Joey and her fans need to realise that she indeed has aged. If she did have any surgery done, then instead of remedying the toil the years have on her face, the work has made her look a bit weird.
Who am I to criticize her? Hey! I have of experience in this department. I have my friends, especially Haji Hasnin and Sahak telling me I look old. Now even, Yaya has been roped in to call me Opah Li Na (Grandma Li Na).
Below are some pictures taken of her and also a news article as well.
After immigrating to Vancouver for years, the 46 year old retired star Joey Wang Cho Yin recently appeared in Hong Kong and became the media target. She was accused of losing her looks and her past goddess image, as many online lamented how time has not been kind to her. Joey's friend immediately struck back and posted photos of her online in support of Joey and said that a goddess was a goddess. After a few short days in Hong Kong, Joey last night quickly left Hong Kong to avoid further coverage. She was afraid that she would be criticized again for "face change", thus she put on glasses and used her iPad to cover her face as she rushed to Customs. She appeared to be rather nervous; when airport personnel asked to her face to check with her passport, she finally showed her face. However, she still hid the right side of her side and had no expression. She seemed impatient with the press coverage. After the process she quickly left Customs and Hong Kong for Vancouver.
Here is a photo of Joey Wang when she was much younger.
