What phone are you using?
I’m using a Motorola V3i.

Why that phone?
The screen is large but the design of the phone is slim. It’s so slim that sometimes I keep thinking that I’ve lost it but it’s actually in my handbag.

What do you like about phones with big screens?
I love how easy it is to read my messages and take photos.

Do you use the camera function a lot on your phone?
Not as often as I thought I would. The phone is still very new and I’m still trying to learn all the functions. This is my first Motorola phone. I switched to this brand because I fell in love with the design.

What do you think of 3G?
I don’t know enough about it. I’m wondering how reliable it is and I think it might take some time for it to get up and running. It’s a fantastic idea and it’s nice to be able to see the people you’re talking to.

What camera do you own?
A Kodak, 4megapixels camera that I inherited from an MC job. I like it because it’s idiot proof.

Do you have a portable music device?
No, I don’t. I just haven’t got around to it. Actually, I did buy an MP3 player but I haven’t used it for music. I use it more like a thumb drive.

I’ve seen you using a Mac before, you’re a Mac person?
I just wanted to see what Macs are like. I had just lost a laptop. Would you believe it? I left it in a taxi. So my friend lent me a Mac. So far, the interface is good. I’m still getting used to the functionality.

When can we catch it?
It’s going to be on NTV7 on Mondays at 7.30 pm. The show is sponsored by Kao Laurier and Nestle.

What kind of activities can we see on the show?
We get these personalities to come and share some activity they are experts in. You’ll get to see waterfall abseiling, go-kart racing, all kinds of activities. I try every single activity we feature in the show.

Your hosting job in Pillow Talk was pretty memorable. What do you recall from those days?
When I first got the gig, the first thing my dad said was Pat Sajak who used to host Wheel Of Fortune had a talk show and that bombed. That made me feel really nervous [laughs].

So how did you get over feeling nervous?Well the first episode was Hannah Tan, Carmen Soo and Harith Iskandar. I told Harith to jump in and save me if I lose my train of thoughts for questions. He told me I would be fine and I shouldn’t worry. When the cameras started rolling, it turned out to be really fun. It felt like a pajama party.

What’s your favourite websites?
Google. I don’t surf the web much actually. It takes me forever just to go through my inbox.

What do you think of blogs?
I’m amazed that people have so much time. I don’t have one, but I can see how it must be therapeutic to some people.

Have you read stranger’s blogs before?Who hasn’t?
There was this one entry I found which was pretty strange. This girl apparently goes to the same gym as me and she wrote about how she used the locker next to mine. She said it was too bad Jojo wasn’t naked. It’s just weird.

How did you end up being in entertainment?
Quite by accident. I used to platform dance in Zouk and I was spotted by a modelling agent and started doing that for part-time pocket money. I was a student then. I have a business degree but one thing just led to another.

What is the best part of your job?
It enables me to travel a lot and every project I do is different.

Any web plans for yourself?
I’m quite a chatterbox, I really should do a podcast!
