Welcome to TaroSTAR

The other day J and I were talking, and she told me we should start a gossip blog. What kind of gossip blog? I asked her. DUH, she said. A TAIWANESE gossip blog. And so here we are, ready to fulfill all of your Taiwanese celebrity news needs. Be it secret hook-ups, this season’s new drama line-up, or even plastic surgery rumors, we are here for you.

Of course, the first step to having a gossip blog is to name your gossip blog. In fact, sometimes naming the blog might take even longer than writing up your first blog post. In the end, all I can say is this: if your favorite flavor of boba is taro, and your favorite type of bun is taro, and when you say taro in Taiwanese it’s almost the same sound as the one you made when Jay Chou (周杰倫) and Patty Hou (侯佩岑) broke up, your blog might as well be named taro. 

So. Welcome to TaroSTAR.
