When Life Gives You Lemons
When I tell people that Jenny doesn't act like a diva, no one believes me. During the last two weeks, I had the privilege of meeting her, interviewing her, and seeing her live
for the first time. Jenny Tseng loves her fans, and she is not faking it. She's a genuine individual - one who speaks her mind and who is not afraid to move on and enjoy life.
Sipping on a latte at a posh hotel in New York, Jenny tells me that without good health, there's no good life. Last year she lost many dear friends to illness and disasters.
She also lost her mother in a car accident, much like the way she lost her husband Alexander Fu Sheng many years ago. During October 2002, she lost one of her best friends in the world, Roman Tam, to cancer. And shortly after, she lost her music producer. Some people mistaken Jenny's genuineness for diva behavior. But to me, Jenny
respected me the same way I respected her. Her character was humble, down to earth, and very comfortable with who she is, and with what life has given her. Jenny is blessed with an angelic voice and a beautiful family.
Life has also given her lots of lemons, but she always manages to squeeze out her sorrows and make some good lemonade.

Please come back again!!
David M. Chu from Long Beach, CA on June 12, 2006
When is Jenny coming to the U.S. to perform again does anybody know? Because last time I flew to Atlantic City to see her show but I couldn't take my parents because it was too much money to go. I really wish she can perform in the west coast, doesn't she already live here? My mom loves her and I want to treat her to this concert. Jenny please come again!!
Jenny is Everlasting Superstar

I just watched her concert of Jenny Forever in the Max Pavilion on Saturday night 11 Feb 2006.
Her voice is still very powerful and she still looks great and beautiful and elegant.
She is a very honest and direct singer.
No pretentious of her appearance at all!
I like 90% of all the Chinese and Cantonese Songs that she sing on the songs that are 70s, 80s & 90s.
But I am very disappointed with the seating arrangement and atmosphere in Max Pavilion, because the place is not conducive and class.
Definitely one of the best!

The first time I encountered her was during a charity show shown on TV. Wow... her powerful, distincitive and clear vocals immediately captivated and moved me, though she claimed that she was not feeling well and apologised for not her usual best form. Nevertheless, I was totally in awe and simply impressed by her voice and stage presence. It was a dream come true for me that I had the privilege to once again hear and indulge in her splendid vocals in her 2006 concert,which was recenty held at the Max Pavilion at Expo. The concert was a success and an enjoyable one, which drew 7000 audiences altogether. Certainly hope that she will stage a concert in Singapore again in the years to come and may she continue to bring us more enchanting songs. Hereby,I wish you all the best in building up your farmland, Xi Tu Wa.
All the best Jenny! Stay healthy and beautiful.
Your young admirier from Singapore, only 25.
Looking for 1980 Concert in Karaoke!!
Anonymous on September 17, 2005
I have a casette tape of Jenny's 1980 concert. I love her voice along with the sound of the band/orchestra. Does anyone happen to know where I can get that 1980 concert in a DVD,VCD, or even VHS? I've looked all over the New York Chinatown, online and couldn't find it. I wish they have the karaoke version of the concert. That would be so cool!
Our very own ultimate diva
Jenny Fan Club from London, UK on June 11, 2005
In my opinion, Jenny is as close to our equivalent of Barbra as we can get - singer, actress and songwriter all-in-one. She is also controversial, loved and hated in equal proportions (though I believed that those who hated her are just jealous of her achievements!) Like Barbra, Jenny has a unique singing voice, both sweet and powerful, stretching several octaves, and she excels in all types of songs. I am just longing for her to record all-new Cantonese songs again, even if they come straight out of the telephone directory!
