Lawrence Wong, a 34-year-old Singaporean actor, shared a very unusual acting tip in one of his recent Instagram posts.
The actor posted a picture, particularly a selfie of himself being cling wrapped (the one normally used inside the kitchen) by his assistant in his shoot. Lawrence declared that this is a tip whenever an actor or an actress is having a fever but needs to shoot on a cold winter night alongside the rain pouring.
“When you are running a fever and the scene requires you to drench yourself under the rain during a cold winter night, this is what you do to try to keep warm: cling wrap your entire body, hoping that the freezing water won’t touch your skin. 😖” he said as caption to his post.
Other Singaporean celebrities praised Lawrence for his dedication to work even when he is not feeling his best self.
Terence Cao (@terencecao_guohui), a Singaporean television actor, commented that he respects Lawrence Wong. Furthermore, BJ Pascual (@bjpascual), a well-known Filipino photographer, commends the actor’s level of commitment to his craft.
Netizens also left their comments on the said post – each sharing their thoughts and opinions on Lawrence’s acting tip.
An IG user, @eileentan_10, commented “The hard work behind the scenes 💪🏼”. Another IG user (@deana.saechang) said that it was the next level of commitment, yet the actor needs to take rests too.
Some people became curious. User @ze_jakey asked through his comment if the actor cling wraps his legs as well.
Despite all the difficulties that Lawrence went through to shoot for the show, IG user @xkiyora assured him that all of his efforts are worth his success now.
