Hope this finds you and yours well today - I saw something about WYB being a torchbearer for the Olympics in France this July; you know anything about that?

Hi sushibrains4! All's well here, hope you and yours are too! 😊

I can't really comment on the credibility of a particular claim without actually seeing the source, so it's always best to provide a link so I can check things out myself.

However, I have heard this rumor making the rounds. I seriously doubt it's real. Most of the torchbearers have already been announced (including Zhao Lusi), and I give Yibo being a torchbearer about a 10% chance of being true.

As I'm fond of saying: Melons are to be enjoyed but never believed.

thanks again for the response

Greetings Rainbowsky! I always look to you whenever I want the unvarnished facts about GGDD and appreciate the time you take to respond to us turtles. I've been swooning over XZ's long hair of late and I was just curious if you think he's growing it out for his new movie? He was always hot, but now ... oh my gobs!

Hi Sushibrains! 😊

Just a reminder that my posts are primarily my own personal thoughts and opinions. There are precious few 'unvarnished facts' in this fandom, because by its very nature most things are totally unverifiable and always will be.

Nothing official has been said about it, but GG is almost certainly growing out his hair for his upcoming role in Legend of the Condor Heroes. Rumor has it that the director wants GG's natural hair (as opposed to wigs, which never look fully realistic), and so GG is busily shooting a lot of endorsement materials while his hair still looks somewhat presentable for those brands.

Like I said, there's no confirmation of that, but it's a fairly safe bet that he will not be cutting his hair before he's done filming for that role. His hair is already pretty long, and if he keeps growing it throughout the months of filming, we are likely to see a GG with pretty long natural hair by the end of it all!

Approximately 10 weeks = significant growth.

Like others, I'm very excited about this prospect!

I doubt very much that filming will be finished before he does his traditional birthday photo shoot, so the amazing photos he releases every year - think about it, people - this year will very likely feature LONG HAIRED GG!!! 🥹 🥹 🥹

If his hair grows at the normal rate of about a half inch per month, that's a few more inches of length by then.

Thank you so much Rainbowsky and I'm kinda hoping the role will call for a bit of stubble for the character ... oh my, GG with facial hair ... wonderful

I’m sorry if someone else has pointed this out but in retrospect the scene in Guanyin Temple where Nie Huaisang is crying and whining about how much pain he is in from a minor stab wound on his leg (that was prob self inflicted as part of his little schemes) as Lan Xichen tends to him while Jin Guangyao is just sitting there with a whole arm cut off is deeply funny

[sushibrains4]

definitely

Hope all is well with you and yours, I just wondered if you'd heard anything about WYB going to Los Angeles for Chanel this month? If true, I hope his international fans can turn out (respectfully of course) to let him know how much we appreciate him. Look forward to hearing your thoughts about this and as always, I appreciate your blog. Thanks

Hi sushibrains! Thanks, we are well - I hope you and yours are well too! 😊

As I've said previously, I don't personally think it's likely he'll go to LA for a fashion show. I know a lot of people are deeply invested in him going, but I just don't see it happening.

If it does, I hope he gets a proper vacation in. He has been working so hard for so long. Let him have some fun.

I'm sure he'd get a lot of fan support there, although I can only imagine the fan wars as GG and DD's solos obsessively compare every aspect of DD's trip and reception with GG's in Europe.

I guess we'll find out in the next day or so. My money is on no.

[sushibrains4]

Well, fingers crossed that he gets some time to have some time to rest up and recoup wherever it may be. Thanks again.
