CANTOPOP duo Twins, comprising Gillian Chung and Charlene Choi, revealed the secret behind working together successfully for the past 22 years, reported Sin Chew Daily.
Speaking in a recent episode of reality TV series Sisters Who Make Waves, Choi and Chung said the reason they worked so well together was because they had never had an argument throughout the two decades of their professional relationship.
“We really never!” Chung said, explaining that she would feel as if there was a “thorn in my heart forever” if they had argued even once.
Therefore, they would do their best to avoid quarrelling even if they were angry, she said.
The showrunners of Sisters Who Make Waves showed a video clip of Chung giving the same answer in 2017 about why they do not argue, which sent the two into a fit of giggles.
> A nanny in China’s Guangxi province caused a stir online after she was filmed feeding the child under her care with her own boogers, reported China Press.
The incident happened on June 9 when the parents were shocked after inspecting footage from their nanny cam.
The nanny, who was hired via an agency, was seen picking her nose while sitting down on a sofa before force feeding her dried snot to the two-year-old boy who then began to cry.
When the video footage was shared online, many Internet users criticised the nanny for abusing a child under her care.
“Nowadays, I feel only at ease if I am the one looking after my own child,” one wrote.
Others said the parents should have informed the nanny that she was being monitored via CCTV to make sure that she was on her best behaviour.
