OT Times Square

Bad, Bibi, BAD! :)

Sudden thought: if she would fake that, what else would she fake? :) :)

It doesn't look like Hong Kong as I remember it but it has been a long time since I was there so it *might* be. if it is, it is in the winter.

Main reason I don't think it is Hong Kong is that the people don't look Chinese. More likely, Tokyo or other large city in Japan. Maybe Korea too.

I don't know...but she does not fake her musical talent.

BTW: That may be Tokyo in the picture ???

Yep, I think Tokyo.

I guess she had no idea anyone would have thought it was for real...so she just posted the photos with no comments.

Her page started filling up with congratulations and that's the point where I saw it.

What I did not know was that she simply went off-line after she posted and just went back on a few minutes ago.

She was really confused when she woke up and saw the big commotion!

In a way, I guess it would be like me posting a photo of myself with a big pile of money next to me and saying I just won the lottery. I'd assume everyone would know it was a joke.

Well, at least you weren't tricked by Bernie Madoff.

Hey, enjoy the moment and have a good laugh. Make youself a copy and make no comments and get a couple of more laughs.

Almost everyone in the pic is indeterminate. But the three people on the billboard, and four on the ground appear to be westerners. The baldie in the lower right corner looks just like me.

I don't think it is anywhere in China because there is not one Chinese character recognizable anywhere. Even more telling, not a single bicycle.

It doesn't look like any place I've been in Hong Kong, either in person for by Google Street View. Too clean and not gaudy enough.

I haven't been able to determine the location of the photo, but you can create your own version. Maybe if I put the pictures of some dishes I'm trying to sell on the building, I'll get some calls...

It's done through this site.

I'm sorry to hear that. What a horrible crash, after your moment of fame. Well, you'll always be famous here. (Not that does you much good.)

Too bad, not real. Excellent photo and billboard mockup. Believable. Enjoyed thread immensely.

Kudos to your friend's very witty 'joke'. Excellent taste in 'positive' humour.

How to get a sample video, or mp3,4 of Bibi's music?

After I found out I was tricked the let down was not too bad...I really did think it a "good one".

Last night I met a guy who knows Bibi and he told me to watch out for her as she can be devious. Too late for that warning!

Yep...Me and most of my friend enjoyed the trick immensely.

I posted some links the other day but did not check them first. Unfortunately the ones I did post were hardly worth re-posting.

Here is one ...but it does not at all capture how good they really are.

Watch out for those darn women things, they can be devious. Machiavelli never had a chance around women. ^_^
