Jacky Chan, Karen Mok, Andy Lau, Joey Yung and Nicholas Tse were invited to perform at the ending of the Olympic opening ceremony. But there was a mix up in the scheduled. When they were singing, the guests were leaving the stadium. Some lights were even switched off and they were not shown live. Although the artists said afterward they did not mind because they had a chance to sing in the Olympic Stadium anyway. Jaycee told reporters he had to be honest about it. He saw his father put on a performance when people were leaving. He felt very uncomfortable about the whole thing.

Jaycee had an interviewed at the commercial radio by Cha Siu Yan (查小欣) yesterday. Speaking of his feeling about the performances, he felt everyone on stage was feeling uncomfortable watching people leave the stadium. Jaycee himself who was in the audience. He was ushered to leave. He couldn't even watch his father finishing his song. Jaycee said if it was him on stage and saw the audience leaving, he would scream and shout at the audience. As this was the Olympic opening ceremony, one could not do that. Jaycee did send a text message to rumored girl friend Fiona Sit wishing her a happy birthday.

I called the fire department, and represented the entire cast and crew in sending our regards to the victims' family members. If it is necessary, I will always be available to help out." Also hope that when "Burning III" releases, the series could help the public raise awareness of fire saftey.

The male lead of the series Wong He revealed that he intended to visit the scene and bow to the two firemen heroes: "But I was afraid that I may have overacted, so in the end I followed the Buddha style, heart of condolence to the two firemen who died. (When shooting the fire scenes, will be more careful?) I have always put safety first when filming dangerous scenes, definitely need to be careful!"

Kevin Cheng feels as if he lost 2 Brothers

He feels that this time losing two firemen heroes, "it's like losing two brothers". As for Bosco Wong who is also part of the cast, he paid a tribute to the two firemen heroes.

Previously part of the cast, Chin Ka Lok also expressed his thoughts, he said: "when I filming this series, I accepted a training, can especially experience what a firefighter goes through, I feel that the two firemen had been trained very well. They know to put the injured citizens in first place and placed themselves as secondary." As for Lee San San, she also left a message online mourning the two firemen who died.

Picture: Kate Tsui at Metro Plaza yesterday






Picture: Kate's favorite piece, a giraffe figurine





Kate Tsui and model Baila Chan attended the opening ceremony of "Girl traveller: Beautiful Travel Gallery" 女遊家:美麗遊記珍藏館 at the Metro Plaza yesterday. Among the display, there are various collectors items from different part of the world. Kate's favorite item was the figurine of a giraffe which was presented to her from Kenya Tourist Board. She was filming in Kenya when she was a Miss HK contestant at that time. Baila Chan liked the junior golf club that she bought from Malaysia.





Kate has done a lot of traveling. She usually goes on her own with a rucksack on her back. She was well organized in terms of booking her accommodation at the youth hostel. That way, she was pretty safe. Although she has the Miss Hong Kong title, nobody knows her in Europe. She was in Spain a while ago. Asked if she has met someone special when she was there, Kate replied " One day while I was in a restaurant , suddenly a young guy passed me a postcard. On the card it says I was very beautiful and than he left. I thought that was very romantic."





Kate has planned her next trip already. That is to go to Finland to meet Santa Claus. She would take a train from Beijing, change in Russia via St. Petersburg into Finland. But this time, Kate hopes she has a companion to go with her.

Kate Tsui enjoys travelling alone to experience freedom

Kate Tsui attended a shopping mall event yesterday and displayed souvenirs she brought from travels for a exhibition. Kate enjoyed the times when she backpacked alone travelling to other countries. The most recent country she visited was Portugal. In the series “Moonlight Resonance” the storyline consisted of Kate returning to Hong Kong from Portugal. Before she filmed this series she personally visited Portugal to get a feel of the place and get into character. She spent 1 week there alone and returned immediately after for filming.

In the past she had travelled to Spain alone and stayed in a youth hostel. The feeling was young and free. She remembers during that time, a 10 year old child sent her a postcard back and complimented her beautiful. She has still kept that postcard as a souvenir. She would most like to visit Finland to meet Santa Claus and also South Africa. Asked if she would like to go there for a honeymoon in the future? She says that she would be very happy if she went with a partner, but she would also enjoy going alone because she like's the freedom.

S.H.E had goosebumps watching Olympic Opening Ceremony

Watching the Olympics Opening Ceremony

S.H.E Had Goosebumps All Night

[2008.08.11 Apple Daily]

Earlier S.H.E brought Selina’s parents and Ella’s second sister to Beijing and attended the Olympics Opening Ceremony together. They kept exclaiming [This is so astonishing], [That is incredibly spectacular], [I had goosebumps the whole night] as they watched. Even superstar Andy Lau turned into a tourist and kept taking pictures in front of the various Olympics venues.

Andy Lau Kept Taking Pictures

On August 8, the day of the Opening Ceremony, S.H.E and their group lined up with others for security checks before entering the building. Because there were too many people wanting to take pictures with them, Selina’s father and Ella’s second sister had to act as personal bodyguards for them. When they arrived to their seats, they found on each seat an “Olympics Blessing Gift Bag” that included a flashlight, a shakedrum, a scarf and Olympic rings, etc. They jumped up and down and sang in their seats, yelling [Satay] when the Singaporean athletes entered the stadium and yelling [German Pork’s Feet] and [Beer] when the German athletes entered the stadium. Because Selina’s father’s birthday was on August 4 and the day of the Olympics Opening Ceremony was on August 8, the purpose of this trip other than to fulfill a filial duty, it was also like a second honeymoon for Selina’s parents.

Because Andy Lau performed in the Opening Ceremony, he was honored to be at the [Bird’s Nest]. He arrived early for rehearsal on August 5 and like a tourist, took pictures in front of the [Bird’s Nest] and the National Aquatic Center. With regards to be able to participate in this great ceremony, he said: [It is fairly worthwhile, especially to be able to stand at the scene and watch the entirety of Li Ning running in space to finish the torch lighting ceremony. That was so admirable.]
