For our CNY Red Issue in 2007, we got Jeanette Aw talking about all things red. For example, what kind of male body makes her go red-hot with desire? Poised demurely on the edge of the couch in our photo studio, her dancer’s body ramrod straight, she mulled over our question for all of two seconds, and then intoned girlishly, “I’ve always hoped my guy will have a dancer’s body. Very toned and well-built with great abs — preferably a six-pack and good legs, heh heh. I think it’s nice if guys are well-built, because then, you’d feel a sense of security right? And, of course, he must be taller than me,” she added, eyes dancing mischievously, lips curving into a grin.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is as salacious and revealing as the actress got. That and the fact that she used to wear a red G-string. Dissolving into giggles, she chirped gleefully, “I used to have a red G-string when I was still dancing and had to wear a red costume.” All right, guys, enjoy your moment of luxuriating in that mental image — because the lithe actress with the manja voice is a homebody who’d rather chill at home with her family during the Lunar New Year holidays than purchase skimpy unmentionables and gallivant with her homies.
She also tries to wear red for Chinese New Year and — tsk tsk — doesn’t go New Year shopping. “I don’t have to buy new clothes for CNY. I’m fine wearing old stuff. I’m filming every day now and I don’t have the time. Plus, I hate jostling with the crowds. Of course, I try to avoid wearing black. And since red is my favourite colour, everything works out just fine!”
