Kenji Wu - then and now

Kenji Wu Ke Qun [吳克羣] made front page e-news in Taiwan today after he performed topless at the countdown concert. He was the first performer at the Taipei countdown. As he was about to start singing 沒關係 he took of his jacket and had a wifebeater on. By the end of the song he tore off his wifebeater and was singing topless in the cold.

On my last trip to Taipei in November I saw him performing at the flora expo concert (minus the exposed chest). How he has changed over the years. He was even voted the top most changed celeb in a Taiwan TV program.

The first time I saw him in person was back in 2005 when he was here for a promotional tour of his third album 大頑家. I've never seen such a small crowd at a signing session. I was given VIP pass cos the organizer couldn't find enough fans to fill up the area haha. And signing took less than 10 minutes cos there were so few people o_O

so kenji is tracing marky mark career in reverse, done the acting bit and now shedding his dignity by taking his shirt off while singing.
