Alan Luo Is Very Fond of Nail Polish

  Obviously, not only females love to put on nail polish, young actor Alan Luo also loves this trend. Three years ago, the guy who according to rumors, is the lover of Selina of S.H.E, was influenced by Japanese trend to do manicure. He likes black, gold, and silver, but he doesn't dare to wear pink and purple on his fingers, only on his toes. One time, he was wearing thongs, went to the nearest shop, his colorful toenails was the center of attention, making him embarrassed.

Alan's best friends, Jolin and Selina, also love to have manicure. But Alan didn't tell stories about Selina who was rumored together with him, but talks about Jolin instead. When Jolin knew that he loves to have his nail polished, Jolin said, "So disgusting and girly!", but now Jolin seemed to accept his habit nicely. Alan said that he hopes that Taiwanese teenagers can follow this nail-polishing trend.

Loves his Limited Edition Shoes, Alan Carries it through rain

For the sake of his new album promotion, last 25th of October, Alan Luo went to Bing Dong and Tai Nan for an autograph session, and then went back to Taipei afterwards by car. When they reached Xin Zu, there was a very bad typhoon which caused Alan, who was asleep in the car with his crew, surprised.

When the typhoon calmed down a little, in the afternoon, Alan was going to the TV station for shooting "Yu Le Xin Wen" show. For these album promos, he spent quite some amount of money to buy a few pair of shoes for accessories. Every pair is a limited edition which priced thousands of NTD. The company promotion staffs was worried that his shoes will get wet because of the typhoon, so they reminded him not to go out wearing such an expensive shoes. Because he loves his shoes which priced around NTD 15,000 Alan was forced to change and wear a sandal instead, and after they reached the location, he changed back to his favorite sports shoes. So as not to lessen his "cool" aura, he purposely chose a pair of black Nike sandal. (SportyYetChic: Oh come on! even if he's just wearing a pair of slippers he still looks cool! haha!)

From Singapore Online Paper...

Mirror, mirror, I'm vainest of them all

HE introduced pop princess Jolin Tsai to the wonders of manicures, and sparked her craze for nail art that has since become her trademark.

He was also the one who introduced boy band Energy's Penny to the importance of skincare, and they now go for regular facials together.

Meet Alan Luo - arguably the vainest guy in Taiwanese showbiz.

The singer-host was in town over the Christmas weekend to promote his latest album and perform at the Affairs Of The Heart Charity Show.

At first impression, the 26-year-old looks just like any other male celebrity: Expertly-teased hair, baggy hip-hop clothes and just the slightest hint of foundation on his face.

Shake his hands, and you'll realize his nails are unusually shiny, well shaped, and, erm, pink.

Spreading his fingers and glancing at them with admiration, Alan said: 'I like how it makes my nails neat and clean, and how just a dab of colorless polish can make my nails so shiny.'

His beauty regime consists of twice-weekly manicures, pedicures, facials and visits to the spa.

Alan also carries around two mirrors with him at all times, so that he can 'check out my front and back at the same time'. He was also only too happy to pose in front of the mirror when asked.

Alan shrugged: 'I don't want to wait till I'm old, and then have to resort to plastic surgery.'

CAN'T SWAY JAY

He has been trying to get his celebrity friends to join him, but R&B prince Jay Chou refuses to cave in.

Alan said of Jay: 'He doesn't mind going shopping with me, dressing up and stuff, but draws the line at going for facials.

'I've told him many times that he needs to take care of his skin, but he 'da si dou bu qu' (even beating him to death can't make him go).'

Of course, Alan wasn't always that vain.

According to him, when he was a kid, he was so fat and pudgy that all the kids in school made fun of him.

'I was bullied because of my size. They would grab my schoolbag and throw it away. So I decided to lose weight, and started exercising and dieting.'

It's no surprise that most of Alan's best buddies in the business are girls, like Selina from girl group S.H.E, hosts Makiyo and Dee Hsu Hsi Ti.

While they have been linked to him in gossip columns, Alan maintains they're only good friends.

'I offer them a shoulder to cry on, and the best thing is, I'm good at keeping secrets.' And since all these girls are known to be vain pots themselves, who is the vainest of them all?

Alan pointed his thumb inwards with a smug expression.

'It can't be anyone else.'

·  Alan Luo's latest album, Professional Show, is out now.
