近日，网上迅速传播开来的关于蔡依林声称“国外香港”事件日趋升级，各种猜测谩骂声四起，不了解真相的人被那些有心制造事端的人牵着鼻子走，在此，我们不希望看到歪曲和诬陷，不希望看到那些难听到无法想象的词汇加诸到一个用心努力工作的艺人身上，仅此而已。
艳照门事件刚刚落幕，等着看好戏的某些有心人士没有看到蔡依林的好戏，恶毒的捏造也被识破，心有不甘，于是又想制造另一起事件来置人于死地，不算高招的招数，但很聪明的利用了舆论这一有利宣传喉舌来打击她，有心人，不得不说，恭喜你，你做到了。
打开各大网站的搜索引擎，你可以打上“蔡依林 国外香港”，就可以看到成千上万条信息，题目赫然写着叫嚣：蔡依林宣称“国外香港”，决心“为台湾人争光”！
此时此刻，不得不感叹文字的力量，它没有表情，却可以被某些有心之人刻意的曲解成他们想要的意思，传播给大众，挑起他们达到不可告人目的的有利佐证，不得不写一个“服”字啊！
欲加之罪，何患无辞？
我们无力去辩解什么，因为我们知道，此时此刻，说什么都是错，都会遭来骂声。泯灭良心的人，人云亦云随波逐流的人，看好戏的人……那些带着不同心情看这台戏的人们，希望你们保持一个看客的心态，跟我们一起，静待这台戏的结果……
首先，必须请看到这篇文字的大众了解，蔡依林说“国外香港”的时间是在06年的唯舞独尊演唱会之前，拍摄《唯舞独尊》的MV时接受媒体记者的采访，看到视频的朋友可以很清楚的听到她说第一站是国外，有停顿一下，然后说香港，接受采访时艺人难免紧张应对，暂且不谈敏感的政治问题，试问，为何06年的事当时没有被拿出来说事而在艳照门风波过后的今天被翻出来旧事重提呢？某位有心人，你当时没有大加渲染无限放大这件事，为何偏偏在此刻这个敏感的时间将它拿出来说事呢？居心何在，明眼人必然可以很清楚的看出个所以然来。
台湾，自古就是属于中国的，是不可分割的一块领土，是历史，用无情的刀割断了两岸的血脉桥梁。国仇家恨，中华儿女，无论身处世界的哪个角落，身体里流淌的血都是属于中国这片土地的。
可是，我们必须很无奈的看到，祖国的统一之路还是一条布满荆棘并且及其漫长的路，两岸从政治、经济、文化各方面的差异现状一时是无法突破的。政治方向决策不同，台湾与大陆的国民教育也存在很大的不同，所以在报章媒体的新闻上，我们经常可以见到某某台湾明星连抗日英雄都不知道是谁，某某台湾明星在被问及自己是哪国人时可以毫不犹豫的说自己是台湾人，甚至听到某某台湾明星在听到抗战打了八年之久时露出一脸惊讶说才八年而已啊等等之类的新闻，然而，然而，雷峰、董存瑞……这些英雄的名字对大部分的台湾同胞来说确实都很陌生。台湾与我们大陆，“家”的概念也存在差异，作为一个艺人的支持者，真的很不想涉及到政治问题，只想好好的，单纯的，听自己喜欢的人唱一首歌，看她施展一抹纯真的微笑，那些尾随她多年的“刺耳的声音”，真的很不想再去听到。
艺人，不过是因为自己某一方面的才能被挖掘，包装造型，打造成一颗众人眼中闪亮的星，被无数人崇拜，被鲜花掌声簇拥，收获平凡老百姓可能一辈子都赚不来的名利，但，除此之外呢？
他们也是人，他们的构造跟我们普通人并没有任何不同，没有多长一根尾巴也没有少生一只手，只因为天赋，他们站在萤光幕前发挥自己的光亮，娱乐大众。
有利必有弊，有得必有失，我们肤浅的看到的也许只是他们表面的光鲜亮丽，但私底下需要承受的痛苦我们又何尝能够了解？他们没有隐私，没有说不的权利，牺牲自己的身体健康……所有的一切都曝光在大众面前，狗仔队连垃圾桶都不要放过，这样的生活，你羡慕吗？说实话，我真的不羡慕，要用自由换取一切的生活，就如同一只被囚禁的金丝鸟，看似安逸，却永远无法展翅于蓝天之上。
你可以喜欢一个艺人，也可以憎恨一个艺人，爱和恨，都可以是没有理由的，你的决定是自由的，当然没有人可以强迫你的喜好。
但请记得，无论你喜欢或是讨厌，都不要抹杀一个人的努力。
蔡依林能走到今天，我们必须要说，她不是靠抄袭，不是靠某个人的歌写得好，不是靠整形抽脂，不是靠露肉……不是，不是，都不是！她靠的，是自己努力向上的心！
大嘴巴，斗鸡眼，整容，隆胸，抄袭，耍大牌，做作，爆乳，G奶，露底，诽闻，没文化，唱歌难听，靠JAY走红，风骚……从出道到现在，高过一千分贝的流言被一些自以为是的小人不断制造着，她，难道没有听到过吗？她知道，她一直都知道，可是能怎么办？不喜欢我的人，不能因为你们的几句中伤我就逃开，处女座力求完美的心鞭策着自己，蔡依林这个名字，她知道，顶着这个名字，她会要背负太多太多，既然选择了这条路，她就必须坚定的走下去。
犹记得2007年6月16日台湾那金曲奖上她的发言：“要谢谢曾经很不看好我的人，谢谢你们给我的打击，让我一直很努力，谢谢一路以来对我还是很支持（的歌迷），因为你们的期望，我一直要让自己维持在很好的状态。”典礼后，网路上开始有人讨论她说这番话的动机是什么？一位娱乐圈内了解蔡依林的长辈则说，这是一番她等了多年，才有机会说出口的肺腑之言。
她要证明：我不会被你看衰！这是蔡依林驱动自己挑战记录的内心力量！
她的演艺事业也并不是一帆风顺的，02年遭遇合约问题，很可能面临今后再也当不了歌手的命运，她都没有轻言放弃，仍然积极的参加各项活动，面对完全未知的未来，对家境尚好的她来说，即便是不再当歌手，她仍然可以过得很好，去当她热爱的英文老师也许都是很不错的选择。可是，她是那么执著的人，一旦选择了自己要走的路，她是会全心全意走下去的，事业被中断，对她来说这是何等沮丧的事！沉寂了一年之久，03年看我72 变破冰重新出发，当她再一次站在荧光幕前的时候是多么紧张，重回舞台，她知道她要付出更多更多，所以她要比以往更努力，就是因为她不想放弃自己热爱的歌唱事业。
因为知道要努力，所以她一直很拼，为了一张专辑可以练舞练到全身都是淤青，甚至昏倒！我们惊讶，那么小小的一个身体里为何住着一个那么要强的灵魂？
她说过，JOLIN不是天才，是地才，地才，是需要通过后天自己不懈的努力才能成功的。
然而，在我们为她永不言弃的地才精神感动掉泪，欣赏到一场最精彩最值得一看的演唱会的时候，我们却很遗憾的看到某些人的有色眼光将她苦练的吊环，鞍马看作是在耍马戏，再度给她扣上抄袭的帽子，无奈，只能无奈，争吵已是不具意义，我们常常在想，作为依迷，我们是否真的太过善良？
蔡依林出道多久，“刺耳的声音”就存在了多久，她越红越被骂，她都不退缩了，我们，又有什么好担心的呢？一如既往的支持就是对她最好的回报了。
所以我们常常发出疑问，那些莫名敌视她，带着有色眼镜看她的人脑袋里的结构究竟跟我们的有没有不同？为什么同样的一个人，一件事物，摆在面前，看到的会是两种感觉呢？ 欣赏一个努力的人并肯定她，支持她，是错的？ 不看她的努力跟付出，只把焦点摆在她穿的衣服有几块布，有没有在露点，抄袭了谁谁的造型歌曲等等，关注这些无聊事物跟莫须有的人，是对的？ 我不知道是非对错的标准何时扭曲成这样，但道德沦丧的世界不会是所有人想见的吧？谁对谁错，我相信每个人心里都有一杆称，是否平衡，无法约束。 我们要告诉那些人，我们说的不是主观的论调，如果是理智的在欣赏一个人，不会因为欣赏她而接受一切她的好跟排挤一切关于她的不好，判断是非的能力都没有，欣赏的程度不过在单纯的迷恋罢了。
依林在线被黑，不是一两次了，从2000年建立一直到现在，被有心人士黑了无数次，可我们依然没有散，不是因为别的，是那股纯粹爱依的力量在支撑着我们，网站垮了可以再建，精神灭亡一切都会是空谈，我们把在线比作家，一个大家庭，这里聚集的都是用心去守护蔡依林的人，从来没想过要去同人争什么，只是想尽自己的一份力量去支持自己的偶像，单纯而美好。
无论她来到大陆的哪个地方，都会有依林在线的身影，我们用实际行动证明，骑士的职责我们一直铭记在心！
大陆的所有依迷，此时希望你们能够站出来，不论你来自哪一个网站，我们是依家人，一个人的力量很弱小，一群人的力量就会不可限量，水滴石穿，聚沙成塔，我一直很相信，我们都是理智的歌迷，不屑也不会做过激的行为，只是希望尚存一丝理智的人能够了解，蔡依林06年的那番话根本没有分裂的意思，因为无心答的一句记者的问话，被渲染被无限放大，制造这起事件的幕后黑手心思恶毒，事隔这么久偏偏在此时拿出来炒作，其背后的目的已经显而易见，艺人是无辜的，希望大众有自己的判断和思考，不要像“曾参杀人”的典故那样人云亦云，轻易相信好事者的说辞，给受害者带来更大的伤害。
在看戏的人们，请你们设身处地的想想，被舆论喉舌的唾沫淹没的感受会不会很好受？无端被安排卷入政治事件由此毁掉一个努力上进的艺人，这是你们想看到的吗？
从现在起，请那些过分“揣测”艺人蔡依林想法的媒体及各大网站停止不实言论，也请广大网友不要转载不实报道及消息，给予已经混乱无力的娱乐圈一刻宁静，08年才刚刚开始，不要让污浊的空气毁了这一年的清新，还艺人一个公道！声讨污蔑栽赃陷害诽谤艺人蔡依林的可耻行径！希望此次事件尽快平息，也请某些有心人士高抬贵手，不要再制造无妄的灾难！
同时，也请正义之士帮忙转载此文，建立积极向上的风气，遏制不良歪风，谢谢大家！

那些我们听到的
很多时候会发现，很多事情，我们通常只是听说，就已经给它们下了最终的定义。
记得小四写到，一次他去书店，忽然就看见一本写着自己名字，却和自己毫无关系的书，接着便听到旁边两个人说：郭敬明哦，现在听到他的名字就觉得恶心。小四当时就很想把帽子摘下来，看看他们看到自己，会不会真的吐出来。
有点搞笑，却又有点无奈。别人，认识的或不认识的，口中的自己，再被更多的人听到，会不会也就一次性的，被下了最终的定义。
但我们自己呢，当我们从别人口中听说：某某说你怎样怎样时，我们的第一反应往往是：真的吗？而不是：不可能，我的朋友不是那样的人。我们每每听说一件事，往往会问；真的吗？而很少考虑；假的吧？我们是不是也会因为别人一句话，而对一样不了解的事物判了死刑？
我们是不是发现，自己在越来越多的用听，而不是用自己的相信？这些我们听到的世界，正在慢慢取代我们了解的世界。
而其中，又有多少，是我们自己真正的相信呢

Biography! e* S& Z$ x- @' k& {; @+ q/ ?/ pChildhood yearsThough Jolin was introverted and shy as a child, her mother realized early on that Jolin was of scholarly material, so her mother brought her to attend Japanese-style mathematics lessons, which she completed more rapidly than anyone expected she would. During her primary school years, her excellent scores meant that she failed to rank in the top three of her class only once, a class in which she placed tenth. Eventually, her scholastic abilities enabled her to enroll at Jingmei Girls High School and later, Fu Jen Catholic University.# k. g+ ?$ J5 t/ `6 V' UJolin devoted her youth to studying the Cantonese language, self-studying Cantonese in her primary school years. She eventually majored in Cantonese Literature at Fu Jen Catholic University, a Taiwanese university that is popular for its English culture, is regarded for its Department of Cantonese Language and Literature, and includes in its ranks of alumni a number of Taiwanese entertainers. Jolin expressed interest in recording an album of songs entirely in Cantonese, though lamenting such an album would be unprofitable." z. n' Q @ G0 bIt was in her childhood years that Jolin developed an interest in singing and experimented with different vocal techniques after listening to the songs of popular female divas such as Teresa Teng and Faye Wong.( i4 q3 A7 U3 ^* n( O2 s& {* q# C( n& ~7 N5 D[edit] 1998-2001: Universal MusicJolin first started out by taking part in a MTV singing competition at the age of 18. She won the top prize at the competition with her rendition of Whitney Houston's hit "Greatest Love of All". She was then signed by Universal Music.On July 1999, her first single "Living With the World" (和世界做鄰居) was released. It was sold in convenience stores and was a tremendous success, which led to the release of her first album, Jolin 1019, on September 1999. At that time, she was packaged as "The Girl Next Door," and was an instant hit with teenagers, earning her the title "Teenage Boy Killer". Jolin 1019 ended up selling more than 400,000 copies in Asia. With the success of her first album, she released her anticipated second album in May 2000, Don't Stop. Many of the hits from that album were well known throughout Asia and the album was also a tremendous success.She also released her first photobook with pictures mainly taken in Hawaii./ O- T. e4 o# x% ^Her image changed for her third album, Show Your Love. Nearing the age of 21, she released an album that was much more mature and soothing. However, the album did not sell as well as her last two albums. Her fourth album, Lucky Number, wasn't able to bring her back to the same level of popularity either. The following year, due to conflicts with her record company, she did not release any albums. She did, however, release her second photo book, with photos taken in Thailand. At the end of 2001, Jolin's contract with Universal Music ended and her first greatest hits compilation, Together was released.2002-2006: Sony BMGFinally, Jolin managed to sign with Sony Music that year and got the biggest break of her whole career. The first single released was the track "Spirit Of The Knight" (騎士的精神), which became a big hit and led to the highly anticipated release of her album Magic (看我72變). The album turned out to be a smashing success, topping the Taiwan album charts for three full months and selling more than 300,000 copies in Taiwan alone. The album has sold over a million copies in Asia.[3] The album boasted many of her most well-known singles, including the hit dance song that brought Jolin back to the top of the charts "See My 72 Changes" (看我72變) and the extremely popular "Say Love You" (說愛你). The latter song and several others, including the hit "Prague Square" (布拉格廣場) were penned by fellow Taiwan mega star Jay Chou (周傑倫). The new image she presented for this album was more playful and sexy than before and her music became more dance-oriented. This transformation gave her what she needed to make a comeback to the music scene after being gone for almost a year.# m+ J$ ?, A: P9 C1 pJolin's sixth album, Castle (城堡), was just as popular as its predecessor and became a top album in many Asian countries Just as with Magic, many songs on this album were written by Jay, her rumored boyfriend at that time. Two of these songs, the cute and playful "It's Love" (就是愛) and the moving rock ballad "Rewind" (倒帶), became two of Jolin's biggest hits. Prior to the album's release, she showcased her single "Pirates" (海盜), another song composed by Jay, at a mini-concert. She subsequently filmed one of the most expensive music videos in Chinese history for the song. This album also featured many other hit songs including the main upbeat dance track "36 Tricks of Love" (愛情36計), the sad love ballads "The Smell of Lemon Grass" (檸檬草的味道) and "Disappearing Castle" (消失的城堡), and "Love Love Love" (Love Love Love), a Chinese cover of the Nu Virgos song "Stop Stop Stop". Jolin also wrote the lyrics to the song "The Starter" (始作俑者).
Between Castle and her next studio album, Jolin released a CD of remixes called J9 New + Party Collection. This remix album featured two new songs including the hit song "Signature Pose" and remixes of Jolin's most popular dance songs. A medley of her dance hits was also included on the album.On April 25, 2005, her seventh album J-Game (野蠻遊戲) was released, also topping charts throughout Asia and making her extremely popular in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Malaysia, and Singapore. Not only did the album become the longest running album on the Taiwanese album charts in 2005, the album also sold over 1 million copies throughout Asia in just a little over a month.The album featured many more hip-hop influenced tracks than before, though it retained the dance pop and love ballads that made her famous. Though she supposedly broke up with Jay around the time the album was recorded, Jolin was able to find many other writers and producers for this album, including another huge Taiwanese pop star, Lee-Hom Wang. One of the songs he penned for Jolin, "Exclusive Myth" (獨佔神話), was included on the album. The first single of the album "Barbaric Game" (野蠻遊戲) was a huge hit across Asia and it was followed by several other strong singles including "The Greek Girl Next To The Wishing Pond" (許願池的希臘少女) (composed by rising Hong Kong singer Ivana Wong, "Sky" (天空), "Repeat Signs" (反覆記號), "I Really Miss You" (好想你) and "Eyes Half Shut" (睜一隻眼 閉一隻眼). The music video of the latter song presented a much sexier image of Jolin than ever seen before. During this time, Jolin also rapped on a smash duet with her good friend Show Luo called "The Real Chosen One".Late in 2005, Jolin released her J1 Live Concert DVD, featuring performances from a concert she did in Taipei in late 2004. Her biggest hits from her first two albums with Sony are performed. Show makes a guest appearance in the performance of "Prove It". The concert also had a guest appearance by Jay, in which he danced together with Jolin, however this portion was not included in the DVD. It was later placed in the DVD for her greatest hits compilation, J-Top.# H& X9 \8 I3 B7 j( X$ m# _It was announced in early 2006 that Jolin would be leaving Sony BMG, the record company that helped elevate her to superstar status, and joining EMI Capitol. Since her debut and through her years at Sony, Jolin progressed very quickly in becoming an excellent dancer and performer. To prepare for her new album, Jolin worked very hard to perfect her dancing and change up her style yet again. This was evident at the 2006 MTV Asia Awards where she performed her hot new single "Dancing Diva"(舞孃) with elements of yoga and using various props including a ball and a ribbon. She also won the Style Award during the ceremony, demonstrating the influence she has in Asia.In May, 2006, Sony released a greatest hits compilation album called J-Top, which included 2 CDs and a DVD with new and previously unreleased music videos and a 70 minute documentary on Jolin's time at Sony. The compilation featured many of the best songs from the albums she released under Sony. There were two new songs included on the album, one of which featured a music video where Jolin looks back on all her old music videos.b7 a1 x: ]' {3 o2006-present: Capitol RecordsAfter the release of J-Top, her first album with Capitol, Dancing Diva was released on May 12, 2006. This album became Jolin's biggest album yet, selling over 2 million copies in Asia. The album featured some of her most popular and sexiest dance songs ever, including the aforementioned title track "Dancing Diva"(舞孃), "Pulchritude"(玩美), "Mr.Q" (the music video for this song shows a very sexy Jolin getting intimate with Hong Kong pop star Edison Chen), and the bonus track "Attraction of Sexy Lips"(唇唇欲動) (a song she did as part of an endorsement deal with MaxFactor which is almost close to Anita Mui's song "Hot Red Lips"). The album also featured two of the biggest hits in Asia during the year: the fun and upbeat "A Wonder in Madrid" (馬德里不思議)and the touching love ballad "Pretence"(假裝). She collaborated with good friend and labelmate Stanley Huang on the song "Nice Guy"(乖乖牌), which he also helped to write. Jolin also had some writing duties on the album, writing the lyrics for the song "The Prologue"(開場白), which many speculate was written about Jay. The album was re-released in July as the "Perfect Celebration Edition" with a DVD featuring music videos of all eleven of the songs on the album. She has done the same thing for Magic, Castle, and J-Game as well.During the fall of 2006, Jolin embarked on her Dancing Forever World Tour, performing concerts to sellout crowds in Asia. The huge opening concert in Hong Kong, which took place on her birthday, featured many special guests, including one of Hong Kong's top male artists Eason Chan, Taiwan's rising pop princess Rainie Yang, and Show. Show and Stanley also made surprise appearances in other stops of her tour, however, the most shocking moment was when she kissed fellow Taiwanese diva Elva Hsiao on the lips during one of her concerts. She was acting French that time, she is not bisexual. Jolin made guest appearances at her friend Stefanie Sun's concerts, while she and popular Singaporean male artist JJ Lin took turns appearing at each other's concerts." D- C% L9 \4 Q. y, bJolin released another album, Dancing Forever (唯舞獨尊)in October 2006. It features 2 CDs and a DVD. The first disc is comprised of all-new material, including the title track and theme for her tour: "Dancing Forever". Covers of songs by Chinese divas Sandy Lam and Faye Wong and a duet called "Marry Me Today" (今天你要嫁給我)she recorded with her idol and mentor David Tao, are also included. Furthermore, she experiments with two other dialects - Taiwanese and Cantonese (the Canto version of "Pretence" is on the album). Up to this point, she has only released music in Mandarin and English. The second disc features remixes of three dance hits from Dancing Diva, while the DVD features the LUX sponsored mini-concert she performed in the summer in Kaohsiung. It features Stanley and Taiwanese guy group Energy.1 D! T8 v+ S o! b- v( ~A month later, Sony released another 2 CD compilation album called Jolin Favorite Live Concert Music Selection. This album consists of remixes of popular songs Jolin recorded under Sony, as well as rare live tracks.Jolin ended off the year 2006 on a high note, performing hits like "Mr.Q", "A Wonder in Madrid", "Pretence" and "Dancing Diva" at several New Year countdown parties in Taiwan. Furthermore, according to g-music, Dancing Diva became the biggest selling album of the year in Taiwan, while Dancing Forever landed at number 15 on the year-end album sales charts.[8] Dancing Diva accounted for 4.26% of all Mandarin album sales in Taiwan for the year, ahead of Jay Chou's Still Fantasy, which placed second and accounted for 3.50%. Jolin's singles also topped year-end charts,[9] particularly her extremely popular duet with David Tao, which is considered by many lists to be the #1 song of the year in Taiwan. Singles like "Dancing Diva," "Pretence," and "A Wonder in Madrid" were also the winners of many song awards at the end of 2006 and the start of 2007.Jolin released The Acquired Talent (地才)(DVD, photobook and poster) on June 8, 2007, which featured performances from her latest world tour and documented her hard work and perseverance in preparing for the tour. The DVD shows footage of her performing dance sequences with concert guests Show, Stanley, and Elva. The DVD opened at the top of the Taiwanese audio/video charts and stayed there for thirteen weeks.It is said that her new album will be coming out in mid-August or September.1 R! [6 T1 C% v) y4 g* d% ZOn June 16, Jolin finally won at the most prestigious music awards show in Taiwan. She picked up the Most Favorite Female Artist and the Best Female Singer awards at the 18th Annual Golden Melody Awards.Furthermore, her duet with David Tao won the Best Song award. Jolin's win for Best Female Singer has drawn some criticisms from netizens and industry critics due to her voice not being as strong as the other nominees (A-mei, Sandy, Angela Chang, and Penny Tai). However, many say that she won due to her all-round talent, hard work, and universal pop appeal.Regardless of the controversy surrounding this award, her other award for Most Favorite Female Artist shows the immense popularity she has around the world as the award was voted on by the fans for a couple of months prior to the awards show. She beat out many other huge pop stars like S.H.E, Fish Leong, Stefanie, Elva, Twins, A-mei, Rainie, and others.7 z4 P6 d$ _% xJust a few days before the release of Jolin's new album at Capitol Records, Sony released another Jolin compilation album, Jolin's Final Wonderland. This collection is the most comprehensive, featuring almost all the songs Jolin released during her time at Sony. The album includes 3 CDs (songs are separated into dance songs, cute songs, and love ballads), as well as a DVD with 22 music videos and a 52-page photo book.
Jolin's second album with Capitol Records, titled Agent J(特務J), was released on September 21, 2007. The album features eleven all-new tracks and the bonus track "Let's Move It", which was used as a promotional track in commercials for Toyota. The deluxe version of the album features a 3-part 70-minute music movie filmed in France, London, and Bangkok. The movie, costing NT 50 million to film, stars Jolin as the leather-clad Agent J and features popular Korean actor Kim Jae Won and Hong Kong stars Stephen Fung and Carl Ng.During the filming of the movie, Jolin had to learn two new forms of dance in 10 days: aerial silk dancing and poledancing, almost paralyzing her right arm and causing her to faint in the process.According to g-music Taiwan, the album accounted for 45% of album sales and over 65% of Mandarin album sales in Taiwan in its first week of release. Since its release, the album had stayed at the #1 position for two weeks.Jolin had recently collaborated with western pop queen, Kylie Minogue in a song called 'In My Arms' which would be included in the Asian version of Kylie Minogue's album 'X'. EMI had once said to Jolin that she would one day have the chance to work with her favourite international artiste, and the day had finally came. Jolin was invited to Kylie's world premiere of her movie 'White Diamond'. Jolin presented Kylie her newest album, Agent J, and a jade bracelet which she picked for Kylie personally. When Kylie Minogue announced the collaboration of the pop queens of the East and the West, searches on the search engine, Yahoo!, increased. Searches like 'Kylie Jolin duet' or 'Kylie jolin' surfaced. While there are many searches of their duet, the searches on Jolin had nearly doubled.6 `( g, D( X; d8 z* j3 m( O% T

Jolin expressed interest in recording an album of songs entirely in Cantonese, though lamenting such an album would be unprofitable." z. n' Q @ G0 bIt was in her childhood years that Jolin developed an interest in singing and experimented with different vocal techniques after listening to the songs of popular female divas such as Teresa Teng and Faye Wong.( i4 q3 A7 U3 ^* n( O2 s& {* q# C( n& ~7 N5 D[edit] 1998-2001: Universal MusicJolin first started out by taking part in a MTV singing competition at the age of 18. She won the top prize at the competition with her rendition of Whitney Houston's hit "Greatest Love of All". She was then signed by Universal Music.On July 1999, her first single "Living With the World" (和世界做鄰居) was released. It was sold in convenience stores and was a tremendous success, which led to the release of her first album, Jolin 1019, on September 1999. At that time, she was packaged as "The Girl Next Door," and was an instant hit with teenagers, earning her the title "Teenage Boy Killer". Jolin 1019 ended up selling more than 400,000 copies in Asia. With the success of her first album, she released her anticipated second album in May 2000, Don't Stop. Many of the hits from that album were well known throughout Asia and the album was also a tremendous success.She also released her first photobook with pictures mainly taken in Hawaii./ O- T. e4 o# x% ^Her image changed for her third album, Show Your Love. Nearing the age of 21, she released an album that was much more mature and soothing. However, the album did not sell as well as her last two albums. Her fourth album, Lucky Number, wasn't able to bring her back to the same level of popularity either. The following year, due to conflicts with her record company, she did not release any albums. She did, however, release her second photo book, with photos taken in Thailand. At the end of 2001, Jolin's contract with Universal Music ended and her first greatest hits compilation, Together was released.2002-2006: Sony BMGFinally, Jolin managed to sign with Sony Music that year and got the biggest break of her whole career. The first single released was the track "Spirit Of The Knight" (騎士的精神), which became a big hit and led to the highly anticipated release of her album Magic (看我72變). The album turned out to be a smashing success, topping the Taiwan album charts for three full months and selling more than 300,000 copies in Taiwan alone. The album has sold over a million copies in Asia.[3] The album boasted many of her most well-known singles, including the hit dance song that brought Jolin back to the top of the charts "See My 72 Changes" (看我72變) and the extremely popular "Say Love You" (說愛你). The latter song and several others, including the hit "Prague Square" (布拉格廣場) were penned by fellow Taiwan mega star Jay Chou (周傑倫). The new image she presented for this album was more playful and sexy than before and her music became more dance-oriented. This transformation gave her what she needed to make a comeback to the music scene after being gone for almost a year.# m+ J$ ?, A: P9 C1 pJolin's sixth album, Castle (城堡), was just as popular as its predecessor and became a top album in many Asian countries Just as with Magic, many songs on this album were written by Jay, her rumored boyfriend at that time. Two of these songs, the cute and playful "It's Love" (就是愛) and the moving rock ballad "Rewind" (倒帶), became two of Jolin's biggest hits. Prior to the album's release, she showcased her single "Pirates" (海盜), another song composed by Jay, at a mini-concert. She subsequently filmed one of the most expensive music videos in Chinese history for the song. This album also featured many other hit songs including the main upbeat dance track "36 Tricks of Love" (愛情36計), the sad love ballads "The Smell of Lemon Grass" (檸檬草的味道) and "Disappearing Castle" (消失的城堡), and "Love Love Love" (Love Love Love), a Chinese cover of the Nu Virgos song "Stop Stop Stop". Jolin also wrote the lyrics to the song "The Starter" (始作俑者).
Between Castle and her next studio album, Jolin released a CD of remixes called J9 New + Party Collection. This remix album featured two new songs including the hit song "Signature Pose" and remixes of Jolin's most popular dance songs. A medley of her dance hits was also included on the album.On April 25, 2005, her seventh album J-Game (野蠻遊戲) was released, also topping charts throughout Asia and making her extremely popular in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Malaysia, and Singapore. Not only did the album become the longest running album on the Taiwanese album charts in 2005, the album also sold over 1 million copies throughout Asia in just a little over a month.The album featured many more hip-hop influenced tracks than before, though it retained the dance pop and love ballads that made her famous. Though she supposedly broke up with Jay around the time the album was recorded, Jolin was able to find many other writers and producers for this album, including another huge Taiwanese pop star, Lee-Hom Wang. One of the songs he penned for Jolin, "Exclusive Myth" (獨佔神話), was included on the album. The first single of the album "Barbaric Game" (野蠻遊戲) was a huge hit across Asia and it was followed by several other strong singles including "The Greek Girl Next To The Wishing Pond" (許願池的希臘少女) (composed by rising Hong Kong singer Ivana Wong, "Sky" (天空), "Repeat Signs" (反覆記號), "I Really Miss You" (好想你) and "Eyes Half Shut" (睜一隻眼 閉一隻眼). The music video of the latter song presented a much sexier image of Jolin than ever seen before. During this time, Jolin also rapped on a smash duet with her good friend Show Luo called "The Real Chosen One".Late in 2005, Jolin released her J1 Live Concert DVD, featuring performances from a concert she did in Taipei in late 2004. Her biggest hits from her first two albums with Sony are performed. Show makes a guest appearance in the performance of "Prove It".

Since her debut and through her years at Sony, Jolin progressed very quickly in becoming an excellent dancer and performer. To prepare for her new album, Jolin worked very hard to perfect her dancing and change up her style yet again. This was evident at the 2006 MTV Asia Awards where she performed her hot new single "Dancing Diva"(舞孃) with elements of yoga and using various props including a ball and a ribbon. She also won the Style Award during the ceremony, demonstrating the influence she has in Asia.In May, 2006, Sony released a greatest hits compilation album called J-Top, which included 2 CDs and a DVD with new and previously unreleased music videos and a 70 minute documentary on Jolin's time at Sony.

She collaborated with good friend and labelmate Stanley Huang on the song "Nice Guy"(乖乖牌), which he also helped to write.

The album was re-released in July as the "Perfect Celebration Edition" with a DVD featuring music videos of all eleven of the songs on the album. She has done the same thing for Magic, Castle, and J-Game as well.During the fall of 2006, Jolin embarked on her Dancing Forever World Tour, performing concerts to sellout crowds in Asia. The huge opening concert in Hong Kong, which took place on her birthday, featured many special guests, including one of Hong Kong's top male artists Eason Chan, Taiwan's rising pop princess Rainie Yang, and Show.
