RE: Haley going back to Asia?
One online explanation of the symbolism of the lotus flower.
Quote: In the Asian religions and cultures, especially, in Buddhism and Hinduism, lotus flower is the embodiment of perfection. The magnificent lotus flowers emerge from the dirty and murky bottom of a pond, and yet remain untouched by all the dirt and mud of the environment, in which it grows.
^ sounds like a description of Haley's Idol journey
Another:
Quote:Throughout China’s long history the lotus is often portrayed in art and praised in poetry as an inspirational symbol of perseverance and overcoming difficulties. The lotus is rooted in the mud at the bottom of the lake, but it rises through the murky water high into the brilliant sunlight.

^^ That's the source for the poor translation. That person lives in Malaysia.
Haley appears on her FB timeline because she liked this:
http://www.facebook.com/onemillionstar
^^ Show's page
The Bing translation on that page indicates it's Taiwan:
Quote:The Super Express

"United States Idol" is real race of Star World fixed multicast programming
Star World invites United States idols second runner-up for the tenth quarter say hailie Lotus Hart (Haley Reinhart) to Taiwan

RE: Haley going back to Asia?
Here is a wikipedia page about the show. Kind of the Taiwanese version of American Idol. It sais it is broadcast on Chinese Television as well. So, I guess it gets to a large portion of Asia.

I'm thinking that she is probably going to do a pre-taped thing. But, who knows?

Wikipedia says, China Television Quote:...was established on September 3, 1968 by the then-ruling Nationalist Party of the Republic of China (Taiwan)...It is currently the largest television channels on the island. Its shows consistently rated 2nd in all major time slots, and is home to Taiwan's most watched early evening newscast, the CTV News Global Report.
So this appears to be a Tawain deal. I bet the show is giving her a sizable appearance fee. Enough to pay for the band to travel with her?
