Lin Chi-ling to Jerry Yan: Love cannot be recycled

Supermodel Lin Chi-ling responds to ex-lover Jerry Yan's love notes in his new photobook For the first time, Jerry Yan candidly discussed his closely-guarded personal life in a new photobook, and reminisced about his romance with Lin Chi-ling in a moving piece. Despite his outpouring display of affections, the supermodel has shut the door coldly in his face. In an intelligent yet almost painful answer while appearing at an environment awareness event, she said, "Love cannot be recycled." Before that, when asked if she would want Jerry back, Chi-ling had only said, "I will cherish all the good memories." The two were exposed as lovers in 2002 when their infamous bathrobe photos were stolen from Chi-ling's mobile phone when it was sent for repair. It is not known why they split but singer-actor Jerry mentioned in a talkshow last year he had written a letter of repentance for Chi-ling but never sent it. The opening chapter Love Fairytale of his new photobook 93...

Her character meets the president of a furniture design company played Japanese superstar Kimura Takuya, and gets a chance to become a model in Japan. Lin Chi-Ling was seen dressed as a village woman and crying hysterically on the ground for a particular scene. She and Kimura Takuya could only communicate in simple English, but he was a true gentleman despite the language barrier. The temperature was only 7 degrees on the day of the shoot, so he let her rest in the car that was originally brought in for him and costar Watanabe Ikkei, while the two men stood outside in the wind. Some on-lookers pointed out that Kimura Takuya was very polite to the staff, and had a smoke during his break. Although it is Lin Chi-Ling's first time working on a Japanese drama, she is rumored to be paid up to NT$840,000 per episode. Her pay check is only slightly lower than costars Shinohara Ry...

Chi Ling's entire outfit was handpicked by a stylist, whereas Jacquelin's was picked herself. "This proves that we all have similar tastes, good choice!" Jacquelin laughed. "Luckily it's not a boyfriend that we both picked the same one." Since your tastes are so similar, do you like Chi Ling's rumoured ex-flame, Jerry Yan? "No, because I like guys with the same mother tongue as me!" She further stated that although Jerry and Chi Ling are beautiful individuals, they don't have to necessarily be a couple --"The most important thing is to be in love and to have tolerance, beautiful girls can just as easily be paired with a wild animal!"
