Irene Wan, 54, Wants To Be On The 2nd Season Of Sisters Who Make Waves
She turned down an invitation to the first season because she felt she wasn’t ready.
Singing competitions that pit established stars against each other isn't a new concept. However, Chinese reality show Sisters Who Make Waves was a breath of fresh air because its contestants were all women over 30, with the oldest being 52-year-old Annie Yi.
Irene casually outshining just about everyone
The hugely successful first season ended in September and now a second season has been announced to be in the works — this time with an even more impressive cast. Among those speculated to take part in the competition are Cecilia Cheung, Ada Choi, Xie Na, Victoria Song, Yang Mi, Michelle Ye and Irene Wan.
While most of the ladies have yet to comment on the reports, Irene was more than happy to talk about it. The 54-year-old shared in a recent interview that she had received an invitation to join the first season of the show.
“I was tempted to accept it. I’ve released music and I’ve learned dancing in the past. I think we should live with the mentality of accepting whatever challenges come our way, but I wasn’t ready at the time, which was why I ended up saying no,” she explained. “But I hope to and want to be on the second season.”
Carman flexing her stuff
Carman Lee, who is also 54, has also reportedly been extended an invitation, although she’s on the fence about whether to say yes as she feels that her dance skills aren’t up to par.
Netizens are very excited about the upcoming second season, with many already choosing their favourite Sister. One shared, “Irene is a goddess in my eyes, but I wonder if she’ll be able to hold her own among those younger than her.” Other netizens pointed out that some of the younger stars, such as 33-year-old Victoria, have an edge over the others because she has experience performing as part of K-pop idol group f(x).
