Two days ago was Niki's 29th Birthday. She and her sister Kathy attended a function together the night of her Birthday. Niki said, "I received many presents. The most special one was the one my boss gave me. It's a chair that has a back rest with my picture on it."

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.

Last week, she took time out to film "Light" MV and revealed that she's quite nervous about her album. "It's been almost 1.5 years since my last album, so I'm quite nervous. I'm really glad that I could work with so many top lyricist and composer, such as Khalil Fong composing for Light."

I think it gives audience a really happy and comfortable feeling, sort of like my personality as well". Also, this Saturday is Niki's birthday, she revealed that she will holds a fans gathering, just like in past years.
