Rainie Yang Submerges Herself in Water at Hong Kong Concert
Multi-talented Taiwanese artist, Rainie Yang (楊丞琳), performed at Hong Kong Coliseum for the first time. Rainie’s “Love Voyage Tour” was packed with a full house last night. Throughout the concert, Rainie displayed her strong stage presence, musical talent, and dancing skills. The show also came to a stunning finale when Rainie plunged underwater.
At the beginning of the show, Rainie was lifted to the stage with wires, and greeted her fans in almost perfect Cantonese. Moments later, she was airlifted off the stage, performed an acrobatic flip, and sang her song while hanging upside down!
During the concert, Rainie managed to use a mix of her slightly accented Cantonese and Mandarin to interact with her audience. To show her appreciation for Hong Kong fans, Rainie delivered three of her songs in Cantonese. She displayed her musical talent by performing songs and playing the piano simultaneously. For the slower songs, Rainie had a nicely choreographed contemporary ballet sequence and for the slower tunes, she switched to dynamic hip-hop moves.
The highlight of the show came at he end of the concert. A large transparent tub filled waist high with water was raised on stage. With fans screaming at the top of their lungs, Rainie slowly dipped herself into it, and finally submerged herself completely under water for twenty seconds. Her white dress floated around her, revealing her white swimsuit underneath, which is her sexiest public appearance to-date.
“When I was in the water, I heard the fans’ screams. I finally understand why some performers will cry underwater,” Rainie said.

she’s amazing live 🙂
haha, was that really necessary? just a truly gifted voice will do,right?
Not sure why she wanted to sing upside down. May be she thought she could sing better with blood rushing into her brain?
And what’s up with the tub? She wasn’t even sexy soaking in it.
Just having a nice voice doesn’t cut out for a concert! Who would want to go to a concert where the singer is just there to sing, there is no attraction to it!
Errr… Faye Wong? She is famous for just standing there and sing and everyone runs to her concert.
Yeah she is famous for just standing there and singing! Well I guess she is special but maybe because I’m still young I wouldn’t go to a concert just to see her sing! If I really want to listen just buy her cd or go on YouTube(just like what Victoria said)! All the concert I have ever been to I never seen a artist just stand there singing his/her song for the whole concert!
Some singers have charisma. Some sound as good – or even better – when singing live. I guess studio recordings might sound a little too perfect – too sterile – at times, whereas everything feels all the more intimate when you watch a live performance and you learn to appreciate it, flaws and all.
a truly gifted voice would make it interesting to listen to, but not an interesting performance to watch. in that case, anyone could just buy the song or youtube it and listen to it at home.
“Rainie was lifted to the stage with wires, and greeted her fans in almost perfect Cantonese.”
She’s from HK. Not surprising to have perfect Cantonese.
I didn’t know she is from HK!
I check wiki again. I couldn’t find the entry that said she’ from HK. But, I clearly remember reading an article that said she’s from HK.
Ok found this liao. So, I was partially right.

She started acting when she was 14-years-old, appearing in movies and commercials in Hong Kong.
Rainie’s not from HK. In many occasions, she described herself as a 廣東人(Cantonese). She was born in Taiwan, but as I recall her saying, her mom is from the Guangdong province. That’s why her Cantonese is not bad.
don’t like rainie’s character, she thinks she is very smart but she’s not, she does not think before talking, remember in one of the talk shows, rainie told a participant that she was dumb..
