Former Ch 8 actor Joshua Ang is getting married in March and there’s going to be a I Not Stupid reunion at his wedding.
Barely a month after proposing to his girlfriend in Bali, former actor Joshua Ang, who’s best known for playing a rebellious kid in Jack Neo’s I Not Stupid (2002), reveals to us that he’s getting married on March 3.
The 29-year-old, who left showbiz in 2012 and is now doing sales for an alcohol company, tells us over the phone: “It’s going to be a cosy, intimate wedding by the beach in Singapore. We are only inviting 180 people, and there’s not going to be a wedding banquet. We’ll be catering a seafood buffet instead.”
He adds: “Both of us love the beach, and I proposed to her at a beach too. We didn’t want a traditional Chinese wedding in a hotel ballroom. We will be playing games and will get the chance to mingle with everyone. I don’t want a wedding with 1,000 people where I don’t know most of the guests.”
Joshua says he got to know his fiancée, air stewardess Shannon Low, 27, two years ago when he was studying part-time for a banking and finance degree in Murdoch University.
“We were classmates,” he says. “I swore to myself that I was going to focus on my studies when I first started school. But you know, I’m not the studious type (laughs). I started wooing her after we had been friends for about a year, and we’ve been together for about a year now.”
He tells us he chose March 3 for his wedding date ’cos “[his] birthday is on March 1, and 3/3/18 is such an auspicious number. Anyway, the wedding is a simple one so it’s not that difficult to plan.”
