  1. I'd guess that Zhang Ziyi IS dating her former bf. :)

    That's too bad Cece is so worried and stressed out that she's eating so much. You do have to keep an eye on your husband when you marry a "bad boy".

    Even those Taiwanese animators know about Dan Synder? He's going to find out that without the support from the fans, he's going to running a sinking ship.

  2. Thing is, does Nic have a reputation for fooling around? Maybe it's Ceci projecting. Wasn't one of the reasons for having a second child because she was afraid of losing Nic? After all, there were those gossipy rumours that Lucas' father is really Edison? 80
