Personally, I'm not getting all fired up about it until Lea has
confirmed it here. I don't trust the media as far as I can throw them.

LEA, YOU DIDN'T SHARE IWTH US THE GREAT NEWS???? WOW, CONGRATULATIONS
AND BEST WISHES!!! DID YOU KNOW HE WAS GOING TO PROPOSE? HOW DID HE DO
IT? WHAT DOES THE RING LOOK LIKE???? VERY, VERY HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!
yipee! just read it myself. Congrats and good luck Lea! Question
though, will you be a fulltime homemaker when you're already Mrs.
Chien? I remember you saying in an interview that since you grew up in
a household where one parent is a full-time one, that's how you would
want your own family to be.

Congrats Lea! Please, please, please, please post a picture of your
RING! I'm sure all AFLSer girls are eager to see it!!!
Are you going to keep Salonga or is it going to be Salonga-Chein?

OK, I want to see you "all fired up" after she confirms it. It may be
inspiring to watch :)

Yup, same here . . . It could be true, but I'm waiting for Lea's big
Yipee! announcement. :o) And boy, do I have a good idea as to where you
can have a world-class wedding in Honolulu!

We were thinking another of the Hawaiian islands, but yeah, definitely in
that state. And yes... the engagement news is true. When it comes from my
mom, it has to be, since we were the ones that told her about it.

I read in Working Woman that you had in mind these songs for Martin to sing:

- I'll Never Say Goodbye
- You Got A Way
- You're Still The One
and
- How Do I Live Without You
If Filipino songs will be sung..."Ikaw" would be very nice... =)

Lea, I read in Working Woman that when the time comes you would like your
engagement ring to be a diamond ring...preferebly blue...is it blue? Anyway,
I'm sure...it's very, very beautiful. =)
CONGRATULATIONS LEA!!! I'm so happy for you. I hope you have a
wonderful life together!!!!!

Yep yep, congrats to you and Rob, your families and other close relations! If
that isn't the news item of the year, I don't know what could possibly top
that. I'll hold off on asking any questions for now; seems like everyone else
is taking care of the questioning for me....
Again, congrats to Mr. and (the future) Mrs. Chien!!!!

HOw did Rob propose to you? Were you surprised? Do you plan to have a

oOPS! That's a long long long wait! Anything can happen in between.
It's gonna go sour soon!!!! They should have lived together instead
and try if it's gonna work out or not. Try about a year. To be
sure, Rob should have grabbed Lea to Las Vegas and get married there.

j/k,

I always thought you'd ask our permission ;)
>Who's paying for the wedding?.........will there be a pre-nup?
Pre-nup? hey, what happens to "trust and love each other." That MIB
actor..... Will Smith, I read he objected to having his wife (Jada) sign a
pre-nup. Steve, would you have your 'asawa' sign a pre-nup if you can
legally marry him?
OK...so Lea's not PMSing, and she's not threatening to pull a .45 on anyone,
therefore the news must be true!
LOL...just recalling the April Fools joke someone pulled here in this very
newsgroup a few years ago...anyone remember that?
Congratulations, Lea and Rob!

Something you might want to hear about , Lea... in the news last night
(GMA's Saksi), they featured Andrew E.'s son's baptism. Herbert Bautista
was among the guests. They did a 2-in-1 news feature -- the baptism, and
your engagement. They said:
"Hindi naman nakaligtas sa mga tukso si QC Vice Mayor, Herbert Bautista,
nang mapag-usapan ang engagement ni Lea Salonga sa kanyang Chinese-Japanese
boyfriend na si Robert Chien. Dati kasi ay nakaugnay ni Herbert si Lea.
Itinakda nila Lea at Robert ang kanilang kasal sa Hawaii sa Dec. 6, 2003,
alinsunod sa Chinese numerology."
And they interview Herbert -- "Panahon na para mag-pamilya ka. May you have
a blissful, happy family life."
(Herbert Bautista wasn't spared from teasing when Lea Salonga's engagement
to Robert Chien was talked about. Herbert has been linked to Lea before.)
(Herbert said -- It's about time you have a family of your own...)
Tintin =)
In the lea-salonga yahoogroup, someone posted that you are engaged to Robert
C. Someone asked, who is Robert C? Then Scooby replied, "The handsome
devil standing behind her!" and attached your pic from the Tonys. And then
the one who asked who Rob is said "He looks like the guy I saw her making
out with after FDS show ended that I attended in November in LA."
Whoa, LOL! ;) Just found it funny, so I thought of posting it here... no
offense! =)
Tintin =)
I guess it all depends on how early he can get paroled
DJ Jazzy Jett <----------A True Troll Feeder on AFLS!
Ahh, great news! Congrats Lea...happy for you, and it's about time
:). Hopefully someday when your schedule permits, you can have a
child to share your talent with.
I do have one question though, I read the article about the engagement
announcement by your mom and she had mentioned that Rob had told her
that he had gotten you an engagement ring. Just to clarify, did he
ask for her permission or blessing for your hand in marriage or did he
just inform her of the ring? I was rather confused...I know that it
is generally respectful and appropriate for the man to ask the parents
of the woman for their daughter's hand in marriage, but being that he
may have grown up under different circumstances of traditions...can't
really assume. Besides, assuming makes an ASS of U and ME.
Good luck to you both! Best wishes, and a happily ever after
marriage.
> Just to clarify, did he
> ask for her permission or blessing for your hand in marriage or did he
> just inform her of the ring?
He asked for her blessing. He also did tell her that he wanted to get me a
ring... so I guess it was a twofer.

how come he didn't ask for your father's blessing as well?
> how come he didn't ask for your father's blessing as well?
My father isn't an active participant in my life now, and my mom rules the
home. That's all I'm willing to say.
All I can say is that Lea's Mom and Dad look like they are not
in good terms. When Lea says, her Mom "rules" the home, that
doesn't sound good. Ligaya is kind of "dominant". No husband
can take this!! Not good to hear tho' his father is not involved
with Lea's life now. What kind of father is he? Just a shadow under
the heat of the sun????? What a disoriented family!!!
Go Go Ligaya and be happy!!!!

Lea's family's life has nothing todo with you. Mind your own damn business..
Keep your opinions about her family to yourself.

> Lea's family's life has nothing todo with you. Mind your own damn business..

The words "go f*** yourself" have come to mind, but that would imply me
telling her to go have some fun. So, nah.
My life is my life... I didn't choose a lot of it, but I can choose what to
do about it, and those are my choice. Screw you for judging me.

Maybe she's one of those ladies from here that Steve is referring to... in

I'm sure it's female... I'm tempted to explain why, but that would only fan
the fire.
Way to tell that sorry excuse for a whatever it is. That lunatic has
alot of CHUTZPAH talkin about other people's lives. Can't get any

Just a different family dynamics, that's all...Nothing wrong with
that. So does this mean that your father won't be invited to
your wedding then?
That's NOT her. You think she would show her ugly face to the world?

I'm sorry but i totally agree with the way Lea reacted. Think about it
from your point of view if someone was passing judgement on your
family you would react in the same way, infact i think she was pretty
down to earth about it! Lea 99% of the people here support everything
you do and we will all support you through this message. P.S Well done
for standing up yourself and Maih Jongs your a prat! I would like to
use stronger language but don't want to be kicked out the room but in
future keep your vicious oppinions to yourself i think you've just
branded yourself as one of the worst trolls in the room...........
hope your proud of yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s
have passed judgement myself but have no qualms about upsetting

Lea i'm sorry to keep pestering you with thesesimple questions. I can
promise you i am actually quite intelligent but it is different
cultures and traditions and i feel a bit blonde (excuse phrase its the
latest slang again)! Anyways what is a twofer i gather it is something
to do with the ring. However marriage is becoming less important in
tradition these days, no permission is asked and quite often the bride
isn't given away by her father and also white is only popular with
small towns and now its is becoming suits! Anyway see you later

Aww!

Twofer... I've always understood it to mean "two for one". I might be wrong

She looked freaking short and baduy. And, I thought she only shops at pricey

Yea! Maih, why are you doing this anyway? are you just trying to get
Lea's at attention or what? okay...so who am I to judge you??? But
you're judging people here! (And most especially LEA!!) so don't do to
others what..well you all know how that confucious thingy
