Fala Chen feel's that she cannot make friends with male artists in the industry

Fala Chen feel's that she cannot make friends with male artists in the industry

Fala Chen and Mandy Lieu appeared at the "Dove Chocolate" press conference yesterday. Fala expressed that Chocolate represented Romance. It makes people think of love. When she was studying a male student gave her chocolate that was shaped as a teddy bear. But in the end he never touched her heart. The reason is because she is not someone who easily gets into a relationship. Asked what her boyfriend requirements were? Fala stated that she hopes to meet someone who is attentive but the most important thing is that they do not mind she is an artist. They also need to be caring and have a good attitude.

Before Fala joined the industry she had previously met someone who was compatible, but unfortunately the relationship ended. Asked whether she would choose to date someone from the entertainment circle? She considers that it's very difficult to make friends with guys in the industry because they may be afraid of rumors. Even when they are in a public place they will be very careful in saying more than a few words. Therefore they cannot be friends and it will be impossible to even date. Also Mandy stole the spotlight wearing a low cut dress, Fala complimented her beauty. Fala also performed her role in "Moonlight Resonance" as a mute girl and did sign language. She got alot of applause from the reporters.

Jessica Hsuan's photoshoot for a Skincare brand

Jessica Hsuan's photoshoot for a Skincare brand

Jessica Hsuan recently has become the spokesperson for a skincare product in Mainland. Because she was busy in Hong Kong filming for new series "Just Love II", its quite difficult that she was able to take 2 days off to go to Mainland in order to do the costume fitting and shoot the ads. In order to accomodate the advertisers, the photo shoot was held in Guangzhou and the ads were printed at that date and location. The ads were filmed by Guangzhou Television.

Actually the spokesperson for this brand will have 4 different types of skincare products to advertise, so this time Jessica being able to collaborate with this skincare brand is fate. Also the person who invited Jessica to be the spokersperson is very satisfied and happy because Jessica accepted the invitation in the end. The day when they signed the contract, they discussed about the earnings for the 2 years, this made Jessica quite happy.

As for the photo shoot, it went smoothly. There were different backgrounds to show the brand's personality, including white, high class black and cute princess. The theme of the ad was a white colored background conveying natural and relaxation. Customers really like this set of ads, besides giving Jessica a decent amount of salary, also invest $10,000 to make other brands.

She returned back to the hotel afterwards. She said "Actually there wasn't a big problem, I rarely have a upset stomach. But to be honest I was not required to go on any amusement rides because I don't have the courage to."

Not sure if it was because Edelweiss had given up on challenging herself that Samantha started to grab attention again. When she was competing in Miss Hong Kong and filming oversea's their were several occassions where she attempted to appear weak. This time, before the rollercoaster had even started she appeared to have tears in her eyes.

Not only did they joke around on the stage but fed each other pieces of fruit while taking pictures. Linda stated that the series viewing rating were around 27-28 points but she had no time to watch her own performance.

Linda who has recently released her debut album went to Toronto for 2 days earlier to do a live show. She had the opportunity to sing 8 songs and felt it was like performing her own concert. However, she didn’t sing her own songs because she was worried the audience may get bored since they weren't familiar with them. Also her album was currently not available for sale overseas. Therefore, she sang other artists songs. "My fan’s in Toronto asked their friends in Hong Kong to help them buy my album. While I was doing autographs, many fans handed me the CD they brought for me to sign. I will certainly sing my own songs for them next time I'm there. Although, Linda was busy promoting her album and filming new series "Dogs on the Beat", she still found time to earn extra money by doing live shows. She claimed that she will go on vacation right after she finishes filming the new series to reward herself for her hardwork. She has chosen to go to Cuba with her family as it’s cheap and a beautiful place.

In regards to the situation, Tavia said, "Before... it was very dangerous! People were pulling and tugging to get the mooncakes. The basket almost got taken away! I didn't know the mooncakes were such a big hit! No one came to get our autographs." The reporters wanted to know if she got hurt but it was evident with the scratches on her arm by the over-enthusiastic fans.

Kate Tsui apologizes to stop the negative rumors; Kingdom Yuen Admits there is no conversation

Kate Tsui apologizes to stop the negative rumors

Kate Tsui recently had rumors reporting that she didn't get on with Sharon Chan, Christine Ng and Kingdom Yuen while filming the new series "Beautiful HD". Yesterday the series had a blessing event and Christine Ng didn’t attend due to being unwell. It seemed that Kingdom and Kate had no communication at the event. Kate said "We are all getting along and nobody is having problems. We are all just working. When we first started filming I wasn't able to concentrate very well and had to retake several scenes. I know that I had affected others and I apologize, I felt a little embarrassed." Also Kate admitted in Eileen Cha's radio programme that because she wasn’t feeling too well she appeared late for filming and hoped her colleagues did not mind.

The other main lead Sharon Chan denied that she had been grouping up with Christine and Kingdom and treating Kate badly. Sharon says "We have been getting on very well, perhaps it's due to the storyline talking about me, Kate and Christine fighting each other in the series and because the atmosphere is serious that there have been misunderstandings about us. It's only because we had got into character." As for Sharon slapping Kate's face in the series and Kate needing to apply ice cubes to relieve the pain. Sharon stressed that it was the producer's request in doing a real slap. She had also discussed beforehand and taken off her ring to avoid any injuries. "I did not see her apply ice cubes on her face, I think you will have to ask the person involved." Sharon suddenly used "the person involved" to address Kate, it seemed they weren't very close. Sharon said "Christine is my god sister, Kingdom had worked with me in "Welcome to the House". It's the first time I have worked with Kate. Of course my relationship with my god sister is much closer. I also separate who are friends and who are work colleagues.

Kingdom Yuen Admits there is no conversation

Kingdom said "I have worked with Kate 3 times, but we have quite a big age gap and we have different topics." (Does that mean you don't have conversation's?) "Yes, while working we will discuss things about the work but not anything to do with our personal life. There has not been much news lately and then someone has a car crash and gets reported. I had a car crash before her but no one reported about me. I have slapped Christine 10 times or more and no one reports about me. I guess that's just life".

Yesterday he attended a function and was asked if he gets scolded at by housewives when he's out in the streets?

He also reveals that when Kate comes in, he will be even worst: "She plays my wife, she's going to help Auntie Hung fight against Hoh Ma, Auntie Hung uses me to split the family property. (Is your mom watching?) Yes, she also said that I'm a bad boy and why I had long hair. I feel that the long hair look makes it look like a Young Master, later I would get beaten up!"

S.H.E to Greet Fans via Webcast in September

Popular group SHE has always been known to have endless conversation topics as they are very close to each other. Now, the trio decided to hold their conversations via webcast. They will launch a web station called “FM SHE” in September and plan to invite guest stars to their programmes. Their wish list of guests includes “Heavenly Queen Faye Wong”, Korean superstar Won Bin and Patrick Dempsey of the Grey’s Anatomy’s fame.

Over the past half year, SHE kept a low profile away from the public’s eyes. Not only are they busy preparing for the new album, they are also sourcing ideas for their web station / programmes. As the trio is often so immersed in their chats that they forgot themselves totally, they decided it is best to share this “specialty” with everyone. Ella joked, “We have so much conversation topics to share, it would really be a waste of our talents if we do not have our very own broadcast programme.”

This being the first time SHE have their own web station, all three of them started to think of titles for themselves. The usually composed Hebe is named the “CEO”; while demure Selina is most suited to take the “Call-ins”; and the most passionate Ella is undoubtedly the best person as the “GM” who will be in-charge of all the big and small matters of the web station.

In SHE’s views, “FM SHE” is no laughing matter. They met up with the personnel within their record company to discuss the nature and contents of the programmes many times. Preliminary plan suggests that programmes will be customised according to the different personalities of the trio and there would be segments on lifestyle, current affairs, matters of the heart and music etc. Ella will also take-charge to compose the jingle for SHE’s very own web station.

The reports stated that Toby and Ron had previously paired up together in 2 TV series portraying lovers as well as husband and wife. This led them to create sparks with each other. But Ron's rumored girlfriend had changed to Charmaine Sheh recently. Although, the reports claimed Toby didn't mind, her face book account revealed that she was dating Ron and there were also some intimate pictures posted.

Yesterday Toby clarified that she was confused about the reports because she had never signed up on Facebook. Her Management said " The person who is claiming to be Toby on Facebook had been using Toby's Yahoo Blog information and posted the same blog pictures on Facebook. Toby has never had a Facebook account because she has always felt there are too many fake people on the internet. She doesn't know their real identities and not sure whether they are her friends. That is why she will not open a Facebook account. Toby does not know who is claiming to be her and it will be difficult to do anything about it".

Ron expressed that he had received a SMS from Toby explaining the Facebook rumors. He said" Toby said that the Facebook account was Fake, I can understand because I have also experienced someone opening a Facebook account and posting my pictures claiming they were me. I had to warn my friends about it so they won't get fooled. " Ron explained that he knew Toby before she was in the industry and the pictures reported as intimate were just from TV series. He says "The reports about the relationship involving 4 people is just a laughable joke."

Wedding will not wear Kimono

Bernice expressed that yesterday all it was seen was the Kimono outfit on her. 45 minutes was required to put it on, it must be put on layer by layer and needed 3 Japanese girls to help her put it on. In the end, 4 layers were placed on her. In order to keep her waist straight, there was a large butterfly on her back. At the scene there were people who taught Bernice how to put on the traditional Kimonos, when she sits she must keep her back straight. Since she filmed Japanese based drama "Wasabi Mon Amour", it is her first time wearing Kimonos again. Asked if she would wear Kimono on her wedding? She smiled and said no, she personally likes to move around and dance, so it would be hard if she wore a Kimono. She also said when she was learning ballet she did many movements with her feet, but yesterday when she's in the Kimono she took gentle and small steps.

Myolie said that she is not a beautiful woman

Myolie said that she is not a beautiful woman

Myolie entered the industry as one of the winners from Miss Hongkong but she expressed that she is not a beautiful woman. This statement caused the reporters to break into a discussion. When reporters asked why she said that, she replied with an awkward shy smile: "A person must be humble. Although i have entered the industry from joining Miss Hong Kong, but i wasn't the champion. I am not the prettiest."

Myolie Wu was the second runner of Miss Hong Kong 1999. The winner was Sonijia Kwok. When Myolie said that she is not pretty, it seems to be rather contradicting. She expressed awkwardly that a person should be humble, "i'm not the prettiest, but i'm not considered ugly too. Although i entered the industry from joining Miss Hong Kong, but i am not the champion. Winning the third position, i know that i'm not the super pretty woman kind."

As the spokesperson of Adonis, Myolie is invited to Malaysia to attend the finals of Miss Adonis contest. At the press conference, Adonis representative, Ann Lee emphasized that the competition is not for choosing the prettiest but choosing the one who has changed to become pretty. Is she saying that Myolie isn't a pretty lady?

Upon hearing, Myolie laughed and said: "Whether i am a pretty lady or not, doesn't matter, only need to allow myself to become prettier will do."

Myolie is very satisfied with the pay (pay by Adonis for attending this function i think) and when asked how many figures is her pay this time, she expressed that the most important thing is happy working together. And her manager will be the one helping her to obtain a reasonable pay. Everyone doesn't need to worry.

Myolie has a short hair style. She is currently rushing for BF 3 filming and the filming will be done in one month time Asked for her opinions on her co-stars Wong Hei and Kevin Cheng, she expressed that she likes both. In addition, Myolie is currently preparing and recording for her solo cantonese album. She hopes to have a chance to sing chinese song because this is one of her wish.

Recently, the last episode of 'When a dog loves a cat' was shown late at night due to the Olympics. In the scene where Myolie realised that Gallen hasn't died, she found him behind a pillar in the hospital, and she was seen "floating" into the scene. This caused many audience to be unhappy. When asked about this, Myolie expressed that she doesn't know about this news,she needs to read the news first before she can respond.

The organiser of the function announced that the press conference will commenced at 2.30pm. Reporters arrived at the location and were informed that the press conference will start at 3.45pm. Myolie arrived at 3.30pm and was immediately invited to mix around with the organisers, talking about facial care. Hence, reporters waited at the location and was given a free lesson on facial care before the interview started.

Kate had been filming for several hours and finished at 6:45pm. During that time the reporter noticed the bandage on her hand had already been removed. She waved to reporters and was asked about her injuries. Kate said "Thank you everyone, I am okay. My chest was just in alot of pain" (Have you had alot of NG's due to still being in shock?) "No, everything is fine, my mom is worried about me that's why I am going straight home." (Have you been drinking alcohol?) "Definitley not, I was just trying to dodge a dog".

"Beautiful HD" producer Tsui Yu On revealed that he did ask Kate whether she needed to rest but Kate insisted to continue as she understood that the location was booked and may cause problems. But due to safety precautions he will reduce action scenes so that she can rest.

Nicholas Tse and Gillian Chung in Wing Chun film

Nicholas Tse and Gillian Chung in Wing Chun film

Chinese news media reports that Emperor Motion Pictures is in the early development stages of producing a Wing Chun-themed movie. Although not confirmed by the studio, Benny Chan (INVISIBLE TARGET) is expected to direct while Nicholas Tse and Gillian Chung, who recently starred together in THE SPIRIT OF THE SWORD wuxia TV series, have been named as the stars.

Isabella Leong (THE MUMMY: TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR) was originally picked as the female lead but was replaced by Chung following a dispute with EMP.

Anyone following the latest career moves of Nicholas Tse will know the screen idol has spent the last several years working hard to polish his kung fu fighting skills in mainland China, both in intensive off screen training and onscreen work in several martial arts TV series. One of his most notable series so far has been WING CHUN, an epic tale co-starring screen fighting legends Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung where Tse portrayed real-life Wing Chun exponent Leung Bik.

Despite being caught up in a high-profile sex scandal last year that could have ended her career, Gillian Chung appears to be on the comeback trail. The Wing Chun movie would mark her return to the martial arts genre after starring in Yuen Woo-ping’s HOUSE OF FURY.
