I know I'm on sabbatical, but I got this cryptic email, and the sender did not leave a return address, so I am unable to enquire as to what she meant. Any assistance in deciphering it would be appreciated.

Message: Hey just to inform you that Jason Chan!!! will be on a program on ch5 this coming wed nite!!! I think I also saw Adri on the streets wearing a black t-shirt in the tv ads for the program. She looks a little plump I think. Or maybe the camera just adds 10 pounds to her t-shirt.
Well, I forwarded this to Adri, but she also had no idea what this girl was talking about.
[Addendum:
Poster:Jason Chan is a Blue Power Ranger
Message: Oh! I think he(Jason Chan aka blue ranger(spoiler)) will be on stress out at 7:30 on wed. A power ranger in singapore, I hope he gets to sign autographs at
toys r us.
My vote for this yr's american idol goes to carrie underwood definitely or bo
bice.
Denise keller of "eye for a guy 2" was lying out of her teeth when she said she
wasn't looking for a good looker. I suppose this is one instance when women mean
the opposite of what they say. Someone in the show was cocky? I thought she was
implying her self. She's a trash though.
Erm. Jason Chan does not play a blue ranger. He's the Green Samurai Ranger.
The 2 Blue Rangers in Power Rangers Ninja Storm are played by Sally Erana Martin (Blue Wind Ranger) and Jorgito Vargas - (Navy Thunder Ranger).
Anyhow, the Jason Chan page (damn, why didn't I check it earlier?) says:
"Stress Out Episode Guide
Jason can currently be seen co-hosting the show "Stress Out" on Singapore's Channel 5, Wednesdays at 7:30 pm. Here's a guide to the episodes that have aired so far."
Damn. I've already missed 3 episodes. Ah well.
It also says that he played the following roles:
"Television Commercials:
Tiger Beer - 2003
KFC (Singapore) - 2004
(and others?)
Adam
Life (2004, Artiste Entertainment, Channel i - Singapore) (Synopsis and Screenshots)"
Screenshots and Synopsis of "Six Weeks" also available.
Ah well. I only finished watching Ninja Storm late last year, so.
And it quotes Glenn McMillan: "I speak to Jason more often. He is in Singapore at the moment and has been working on quite a bit of stuff. He is also developing scripts and some of his own ideas for feature films. It is a bit tough for Asian actors to get solid work in Australia, and it's much better in Singapore. He's doing really well."
Looks like he will be in Singapore for some time to come :) Bandai could exploit his presence for autograph, publicity and toy-selling sessions, especially since Ninja Storm's still showing on Channel 5!
Random article: "In fact, Chan was a general practitioner for four years before deciding to act on his acting ambitions. Still, he says his medical career was good acting training because "doctors see a whole range of emotions in a matter of minutes.""]
