In town for the second time in just a short span of 2 months, Angela Chang’s schedule was jam packed with media interviews and public appearances during the 3 days she spent on our sunny isle, from May 5th to 7th which also saw her make a special guest appearance on the Thye Hua Kwan Charity Show.

Looking much more mature and sophisticated, Angela is ostensibly changing with the vagaries of the entertainment industry.

Having just released her fourth album titled, Flower In Wonderland. Angela’s shedding off the chrysalis of her once-conservative image to present a whole new Angela that’s sexier.

In fact, amidst all that syrupy pouting and hip-strutting that is evident in Angela’s music videos, there’s a latent sensuality that lurks beneath.

However, one thing still remains an intrinsic part of Angela: her veritably strong vocals that take her aficionados hostage, and bestowing her performance with full of nuance and emotion.

Well, after having met the singer up-close and personal, I can safely say that the media frenzy surrounding the Taiwanese singer’s puny physique is nothing apocryphal. In person, Angela is so stick thin that her skeletal frame begs for a cheeseburger.

Skinny or not though, the Bambi-eyed, gamine lass oozes so much “kawaii-ness” (cuteness) and honeyed charm in person, so much so that it’s hardly a contrivance.

And at the autograph session held at the alfresco area of Bishan Junction 8’s Level 3, she greeted and waved to fans with alacrity, as she cavorted on stage with unbridled pizzazz.

Angela was a picture of sartorial elegance in a light mood gothic warm grey and gold tank top from Ed Hardy, paired off with a suspender jumpsuit with chunky buckles and a stylish wide-belt at empire line.

Looking absolutely refreshed and radiant in a pompadour hairdo, the dervish Energizer bunny seemed to possess a colossal amount of energy, albeit displaying a good sense of camaraderie. On stage, she was an abundance of frenzied energy, chatting effortlessly with her fans, all the while maintaining an unwavering, perennially-smiling expression.

Angela revealed that she had trouble acclimating herself to the hot, sultry weather of tropical Singapore. She also admitted to being afraid of the sun, as she doesn’t want to be too tanned.

The nubile nymph continued to ply fans with easy banter in between performances. At one point, when fans asked her what sport she enjoyed playing, she teased, ‘Basketball. Does anyone here want to play with me?” And, then single handedly brought down the hopes of thousands of screaming hordes of fans by adding, ‘But, that would be impossible!” before breaking into peals of laughter.

Flower In Wonderland is in stores now.
