Faye at the Olympics on Aug 23

Look for a media frenzy when Faye Wong (王菲) shows up to watch the women’s volleyball gold medal match on Saturday, August 23, at 8:00 PM in Beijing’s Capital Indoor Stadium. (Shanghaiist.com reports an Aug 24 date for the final.) She’ll most probably be there with her close friend Carina Lau (刘嘉玲 Liu Jia Ling).

The Chinese team’s best matches are coming up:

• August 14, 8:00 p.m. v. Japan (Capital Indoor Stadium)
• August 16, 10:00 a.m. v. USA (Beijing Institute of Technology)
• August 18, 8:00 p.m. v. Italy (Capital Indoor Stadium)
