One’s a dashing actor, while the other’s a talented musician. How’s a girl to choose?
Little wonder why China-born-Taiwan-based singer Della Ding can’t decide between the two and acted coy when reporters probed her about her feelings towards actor Xiu Jiekai and singer Ga-ga.
“It’s a different feeling!” answered Della, looking flustered.
While Xiu Jiekai is an actor whom the songbird got to know through her music video collaborations, Ga-ga is one-sixth of newbie band Magic Power from Della’s record company.
The latter confessed his love for Della during her concert in Taiwan recently, much to the singer’s surprise.
In town last Saturday with her juniors, Della and band Magic Power performed at a music showcase held at Dragonfly.
So, how does the singer feel about dating her ‘junior’ – Ga-ga?”
“It’s the feeling between the both of us that are more important. If the feeling is right, I’m actually ok (with dating),” Della replied bashfully.
The singer had once openly expressed her liking for Xiu Jiekai, and the Taiwanese media has since been linking the pair.
Recently, Della invited Xiu once again to collaborate on a second music video with her.
But she denied they are together and explained that her interactions with both lads are on a different scale – she spends more time with Ga-ga and his band members on singing while moments with Xiu are restricted to only filming for work.
“The second time I collaborated with him (Xiu Jiekai), I felt that he’d become more man. Only after filming Yang Cong (the MV) did I realise that he doesn’t know how to dance and needed me to lead him. In this aspect, Ga-ga has the upper-hand,” the 27-year-old analysed seriously.
Romance aside, Della Ding has her sights set elsewhere.
The up and coming singer, who has become more popular ever since her successful weight loss, plans to scale the ladder towards the title of “Queen of Mandopop”, and hasn’t been resting on her laurels.
A self-professed dance enthusiast, Della reveals that she hopes to have a good grasp of both singing ballads and dancing, and looks up to singers like A-mei, Beyonce and Jolin Tsai.
Likening herself to having the undying spirit of a cockroach, the ambitious one concluded, “If others can do it, so can I.”
Della Ding latest album Fu Good (Best and Selection) is available at all major record stores now.
