‘Green Hornet’ star Jay Chou likes low Hollywood profile
Hollywood is usually the place to see and be seen, but for Taiwanese pop singer Jay Chou, star of the smash hit “The Green Hornet,” Tinseltown offers a welcome break from the paparazzi in Asia.
“As an artist, I need a lot of space which I cannot really get in many places in Asia,” Chou told reporters Monday ahead of the Chinese premiere of the superhero flick, which co-stars Seth Rogen.
“It felt like I was having a vacation in the United States – I took my mother to the production, and it felt really good to have some time for myself. I didn’t have that feeling of people surreptitiously taking my picture.”
“The Green Hornet” – the tale of a young playboy businessman who becomes a crime fighter – topped the box office in its opening weekend in North America, taking in US$34 million, according to industry data.
Chou, largely unknown in the United States but hugely popular in Asia, plays the role of Kato, sidekick to the Green Hornet played by Rogen.
You must go see ‘The Green Hornet’ if you haven’t already. It is abfab! Jay Chou and Seth Rogen are truly the Dynamic Duo!
Cameron Diaz is her usual hot stuff in this movie as well.
