Mystery of Popeye Queen(卜派歌后)
ReplyDeleteDid you expect She eat spinach before singing?
It's because her charming low voice
It's probably her dynamic personality.
Cai Yihong 2012 was declared suffering from nasopharyngeal carcinoma stage I, but she is optimistic about fighting cancer, the disease is well treated, did not expect the year before last in the bathroom accident at home, first aid to take out two five-centimetre-large blood clots to save his life, the head of hair is also shaved short, this year, in January, she attended the concert, revealing that the staff suggested that she could wear a wig on stage, but by the personality of the bluntness of the shot that she said in jest, "I'm naturally beautiful, bareheaded on the good". The first time I saw her, she said, "I'm a natural beauty, bareheaded is good. Because her mother is a vocalist, she said she was born "to sing", but she did not expect the concert in January was the last public performance, but also let her friend Fan Wang (Wang Jixuan) expressed sadness!

The microphone is placed at the navel when she sings, which is one of her special features.
RIP Popeye Queen
