Cris Horwang has been winning a lot of awards for “A Bangkok Traffic Love Story”, it amazes me. Also, I can’t believe “Nang Ma gub Poo Yai Lee (Ms. Ma and Elder Lee)” is still winning awards. Hasn’t it been 2 years already or  maybe just a year. Still, it is an old lakorn.

For the love of cheese, both these boys need to lay off the make-up.

Tao Somchai’s daughter is born

Nong Somjai was born today on February 22, 2010 via a caesarian section, he father actor and troublemaker Tao Somchai wanted her to be born on an auspicious day, Monday. How superstitious can you be?  She weighed in at a healthy 6.5lbs or 2,970 grams.

Thai netizens congratulated Tao on the birth of his daughter and hoped that she will change him. They hope Nong Somjai will be easy to raise and NOT be like her parents, especially her father Tao who seem to disappoint the public A Lot. Here is a lesson for you, beating up an old man at a noodle shop will get you nowhere. Obviously. There is no excuse even when you’re drunk.

Nong Somjai looks like her mother Yui. She’s very round, cute asian baby.

Tao Somchai is going to be a father

He impregnated her. Wow and some thought their marriage was a publicity stunt. Now, they have a baby on board. Tao’s wife “Yui” Atmat Atwawimon is one month pregnant and Tao is excited. He has already begun to look for names for his unborn child.

The couple’s marriage was the talk of the town because people did not know they were dating until Bam! They got married. The couple signed their marriage certificate on May 14, 2009 and had their wedding ceremony exactly one month later on June 14. It was a very casual affair, Tao Somchai wore jeans to the reception and several guests dressed up in street clothes. Pictures here.

The groom wore jeans!

Yes, that is Mos at the end.

For the reception part of his wedding, Tao Somchai wore jeans and a white t-shirt. To his own wedding, he wore jeans! I repeat! It felt more like a club opening than a wedding reception. Several guest wore jeans too. “Tack” Paranyoo Rodjanawuttitham, minor actor from Ch3 wore a beat-up black and blue flannel shirt and jeans.. He didn’t look well-groomed either. At least comb your hair Tack.

Peter Corp Dyrendal was another guest who dressed inappropriately or maybe in this case, it was appropriate, he wore a black windbreaker pants and a “holla, holla” t-shirt that had the word “baby” imprinted on the bottom.

Between Tao and her younger guests, she looks more like their mother than the bride.

Tao Somchai’s wedding

Tao Somchai had his wedding ceremony today at the Peninsula hotel to his wife of a few weeks, “Yui” Atmat Atwawimon, a career woman, the assistant director for Cosmo Thailand, Poly, and Dichan magazine. The couple have been friends for years and started dating 3 months ago and married exactly 14 days ago. Their abrupt marriage was a complete shock to everyone, especially to Tao’s young girlfriend from Chiangmai. The media wondered if it was for publicity stunt or whether she is pregnant. It caused quit a controversy and continues to be a hot topic for tabloid news.

The dowry for Yui included several gold chains, 800,000 baht ($23,348) in cash, 1 million baht ($29,187) deposited to a bank, and a diamond jewelery set.

Mor Krit, the controversial fortune teller with the most obnoxious voice, said the couple are soul-mates in terms of being friends. As husband and wife, Mor Krit predicts they will last much longer than Tao’s marriage to Nat Myria.

Surprisingly some comments left at Manager news were well-wishes to the controversial couple.

“I wish you two the best and hope you stay together for more than 1 month.”—HAHAHAHAH. In all seriousness, there were a lot of well-wishes to Tao and Yui.

Yui is 36 and Tao is 35. I hope it works out, she ain’t getting any younger. Sorry that was rude of me.
