The New Avatar

You may noticed that I changed my self-portrait illustration located in the index page of this weblog site. It’s almost naked and you might be confused with such a costume. Well, it’s a parody of Alex Tu(杜德偉), one of the most famous popular singers in the Chinese-Speaking regions.

Recently Alex Tu released his new musical album “Take Off”(脫掉), you can often hear this song in the radio channels and watch the video on the TV, it’s played everywhere in Taiwan. Alex Tu was also almost naked with just putting on a white and tiny underwear and tying some ribbons on his hands in the music video of the first hit song “Take Off”. In the ending of this video, he even took off everything. I read lots of comments of his costume, some said that Alex might try to imitate Jesus Christ, as some said he looks like a Japanese Samurai preparing to kill his self and some said it looks like a Sumo racer. However, I do not understand the meaning of such a costume much, I just feel it’s quite funny and fancy.

zonble + alex tu = ?

給中文讀者:話說杜德偉的這個造型,讓我想到詩人張健的一首詩:

〈瀑〉

你從髮到趾
是一片飛瀑

我縱躍其中
洗滌全身心

明晨轉醒時
我變成耶穌
