[2011.01.28] LOUIS KOO DOES NOT MIND CROSS DRESSING

Louis Koo Tin Lok in the Lunar New Year film ALL'S WELL ENDS WELL 2011 (JUI KEUNG HEI SI) played an effeminate make up artist. The rather masculine Goo Jai this time played effeminate for the first time, he honestly said that at first he was not used to it. During the shoot he maintained the effeminate tone on and off screen. He joked that at the time he was a guest at the Grasshoppers concert and he realized that when he went on stage he walked with an effeminate twist. Was he afraid of attracting some effeminate fans later? Goo Jai joked that in

his life he had such friends. He would not mind and could be friends with them.

Although in the film he played a make up artist, Goo Jai did not know about cosmetics and Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi even made fun of him for doing a bad job. In one scene Chapman To Man Jat had to dress like a woman, Goo Jai said that he has never done so. He did not mind and instead thought it would be rather fun. Donnie Yen Chi Tan in the film was also a make up artist. Goo Jai joked that his make up had a kung fu base.

Last year Goo Jai made five movies. He hoped to make less in the new year and take time off to recharge. He honestly said that he has always wanted to finish one movie before starting another, but sometimes due to production issues in the end they were shot simultaneously. He

would like to take one or two months off because he has not truly rested in years. Goo Jai said that when he visited overseas the first week was for sleeping. In Hong Kong he generally could not rest because he would go out when he got the call. However, Goo Jai pointed out that this year he already took five or five films. He believed the chance to take time off would be very hard.
