Spotted in Shanghai:
    Canto-pop queen Anita Mui partying last night at Guandii. I was towards the front of the line at the club (hey, it's no secret, I'm no VIP) when she was escorted into the club with her posse after her big Shanghai concert. Dude, the woman is pushing 40, but was dressed in a baggy track suit with a beanie on her head, a pair of shades, and inch-thick caked on make-up. Blecch. It got more surreal inside later that night when she made her way out of the VIP lounge and onto the dance floor, grinding her crew of what looked like 17-year-old wannabee HK B-boys. She was wearing a David Beckham jersey (she's supposedly a huge fan), and just looked like she was in high school. It was pretty funny stuff, considering that I associate her with my aunts, who were fans of hers in the 80s. Personally, I've never seen the appeal. I don't like her music, or her movies, and she's not particularly attractive (many people think she looks like a guy). I'll take Teresa Teng any day!
