Ekin Cheng and Lin Chi-ling named Worst Actors
2 Jul – Hong Kong actor Ekin Cheng and Taiwanese model-actress Lin Chi-ling have recently been named the Worst Actor and Actress of the first half of 2013, according to Yes Entertainment. A Mainland China site recently conducted a survey for the 10 worst Chinese films of the first half of the year. Movies that were listed include Julian Cheung's "Natural Born Lovers", Michelle Chen's "Badges Of Fury", and Ko Chen-Tung's "Tiny Times". An unexpected entry in the list was Wong Kar-wai's "The Grandmaster", which came in fifth, while the most unsurprising winner of the Worst Film was Andy Lau's "Switch", with many claimed to make no sense, what with the absurd action sequences. Lin Chi-ling, who had high hopes for "Switch" as her shot to fame, received almost 2000 votes in favour of her as the Worst Actress, with comments saying that even her beauty was not able to save the bad movies she participated in
