Surprised music star copes with spotlight

Chinese singer-songwriter Yang Le is not a fan of fame.

The popularity he gained following his performances on reality TV show China Star, aired by Dragon TV since November, has made him very uncomfortable.

The performances of his original songs are widely available on the internet. He sings about his current life and is reflective of his past. Yang's distinctive music, in a style of vocal storytelling or even murmuring while playing the guitar, catapulted the 60-year-old to folk and rock stardom.
