As for Linda, she also smiles and said that she should get used to be played: "lately need everyone to like me. (Do you like?) It's good friends. (Is it because you like the style?) I didn't say what style I liked, its about timing and fate. (At first sight, did you Raymond have a good impression?) Just friends lor."

Niki donated her clothes to charity



Yesterday Niki Chow, Kenny Kwan, Kelvin Kwan, model Ana R and Janice Man attended " IT Zucca Winter 08 Fashion Show" in Central. Niki reckoned wearing winter clothes in a hot summer day is unbearable. She herself has to spend 5 figure sum each time when the season changes. It is a good job that she gets some sponsors to help pay half of the cost.
Niki disclosed that she buys a lot of clothes for herself as well. Her wardrobe is always full. She told reporter " I have so many clothes at home that I don't wear anymore. Some of them changed to yellow colour due to the air conditioning. I have asked a friend to come in next week to take some of my clothes away. " She would rather her clothes go to the charity organization than changing colour in her wardrobe.
Kenny had his hair dyed white yesterday. He revealed that he did not change to this colour because of his work. It was because he was trying to change his image. He wasn't too sure in the beginning, kept wanting to change back to black colour. But Niki and Ana R both said they liked his hair. Kenny was so happy and decided he is not going to dye his hair back to black now.
