Red Laowai Singing Jay Chow
Author: Demerzel28 Nov
I’m frickin’ pissed over this:
I’ve always thought about doing this with a Jay Chow song (done some karaoke as well, my friends can back me up on this to their annoyance probably, lol) along with doing a duet with my wife for Love’s Angel by Jolie（我的天使）.Then again, I’m not sure which I’m more pissed at…
- Him actually doing this and beating me to it (laziness on my end).
- The seeming fakery over his huge “pro-China” sentiments (unless satirical).
- My doing a video now would seem like I’m the copycat.
- My wife saying his Chinese is better than mine and doesn’t like hearing me sing.
Sighs, wonder if I could convince my wife now to do the duet?? Guess my ‘uniqueness’ died out with QQ…

Pure Comedy: Hong Laowai (Red Westerner)…
Hat Tip to The Shanghaiist
Apparently a New Yorker, who calls himself the Red Laowai (Hong Laowai), has posted on every Chinese Youtube-like site videos of himself singing traditional Chinese Communist Propaganda songs, such as “My China Heart…
Sorry for beating you to it, man. You can always sing something else. How about some Chinese opera?
Oh, no need to apologize–I’m only been pissed at myself really as I could have done something like this 4+ years ago, but never got the courage or will to do so as you have done. So mainly the props go to you and I wish your stardom well
Oh, and you can feel even better about my jealousy from one whiteaznguy to another over the fact that I rarely ever get jealous.
Thank you but I’ll pass on Chinese opera, got a Cantonese friend who does that already here (Beijing Opera no less). Although if you’re up for some “boy band” hits, I’m up for the task of getting some other 红老外 (I know of at least one in Iraq and another in 杭州) for some fun that way (Albeit at 26 not so young anymore, heh).
