| He didn't give me sore lips... Fann Wong tells of "Very Nice" Moments with US actor PICKING up gongfu from Jackie Chan may be nice, but nothing beats smooching Owen Wilson of the sexy lips. When asked to describe her first Hollywood filming experience, Fann Wong giggled gleefully: "I'm very happy. I got to kiss Owen!" The Caldecott Princess landed the role of Chan's little sister, Chon Lin, in Shanghai Knights, a sequel to 200 Shanghai Noon. Knights also sees the return of American actor, Wilson, who plays the role of a gun-slinging cowboy. After about two months on the set in Prague, the capital Czech Republic, Fann was recently back to perform charity concert. "Owen's character is the kind of infatuated with me, but I had to initiate the kiss in the movie," she said, with a gleam in her eyes. It was a kiss for the hero because "he saved me from danger:. Aww ... Fann said she lost track of how many times they kissed. But remembered them as "very nice" moments. We had to do it again and again as different camera angles were needed. No tongues, of course! "No, I didn't have sore lips the next morning,: she said with a laugh. Sore lips? "Yes, I heard from my actress-colleagues that you can get sore lips from kissing too much!" she enthused. My,my, what precious information from Fann's rosebud lips. Her openness came as a surprise because she had apparently "acted coy" about kissing scene, when she was asked about it by a group of Asian journalists who had visited the set in Prague earlier. Perhaps, Fann was in a good mood when TODAY spoke to her. Or perhaps, Mum's cooking put that mood. "My mum prepared so many of my favourite dishes," she gushed. "Home is always the best place to be." But her "second home" in Prague, where she has since returned to, is not that bad, too. "Da ge (big brother referring to Chan) is a very nice and takes good care of us." And Wilson? "He's really a very shy, quiet guy. We chat occasionally." Oh, she got to play with his doggie, too. He brought his dog to the set and it loves to lick me!" Like owner, like doggie? by Elisa Chia |
