BEIJING – Chinese pop diva Faye Wong has denied reports that claimed she was pregnant via her micro blog yesterday and said that she has merely put on some weight.
Rumours of Wong’s pregnancy began when she was photographed in Hong Kong, apparently trying to hide a small belly. They further intensified when Wong’s management company later said that they knew nothing of her alleged baby bump and refused to comment further about it.
However, Wong has since made a joke of these rumours by posting a witty response on her micro blog to clarify the matter.
“Alright … I admit that I am not pregnant, but it is true I have gained a little weight,” said Wong.
She accompanied her post with a photo that left netizens praising her offbeat sense of humour – Wong posted a photo of a fat seal, a reference to her own weight gain.
The 41-year-old singer is one of the biggest names in the Mandopop music industry today.
Wong took a break from showbiz in 2005 but has seen her popularity skyrocket since she made her comeback in 2010 with a series of sold-out concerts across Asia.
She is scheduled to perform in Singapore later this month. CHANNEL NEWSASIA
