Jay Chou denies putting a ring on it

BEIJING: Asian superstar Jay Chou has quashed recent rumours that he bought a diamond ring for his old flame, pop princess Jolin Tsai, and promised to marry her.

When asked about the rumours at a promotional event in Beijing on Tuesday, Chou became agitated and vehemently denied buying the ring or telling his friend that he planned to marry Tsai in the future, as the rumours claimed.

"Finally, I have the chance to clear the air about this matter. There are a lot of times when not saying anything does not mean silent agreement. It just means that I don't want to bother with it.

"When have I ever given a diamond ring to a girl? Even if I bought one, it would be for my mom," said the 31-year-old singer.

"I did not clear this matter up earlier because I felt it was pointless. Even before I performed with Jolin, I already knew we were going to attract gossip, but decided to do the show first anyway."

Chou and Tsai, who split in 2005, were spotted on what the media claimed was a date at a Taiwan bowling alley early this year.

Tsai, 29, also made an appearance at one of Chou's concerts in Taiwan in June and proceeded to dance intimately with him.

Chou had previously insisted that he and Tsai were "just friends" who are "happily single", but their performance sparked rumours that the pair would reconcile, eventually leading to further rumours about Chou's purchase of a diamond ring.
