Upset Lady unwilling to leave, interferes with shooting of Steven Ma's new series

Yesterday Steven Ma and Linda Chung were shooting a car accident scene on location at Shek Kip Mei street for TVB new series Prosperous Father. The scene was so realistic that the passersby were frightened thinking there was a real traffic accident and immediately called the police, "a motorcycle crashed into the pedestrian road, sweeping a few people down." The police and firefighters arrived at the location at once thinking that a catastrophic traffic accident had just occurred. When they got to the scene, the police realized it was all just a misunderstanding. Soon after, a female onlooker suddenly stood next to the motorcycle used for filming and interfered with the shoot. She was urged to leave, but she was unwilling to. The crew was forced to stop the shoot.

Later reporters approached Steven Ma for details of the incident. He said he was just shooting a car accident scene for his new series with Linda. The scene required many Extras to act as students who get hit by a motorcycle. At the time, there was a old woman passing by who got very anxious, misunderstanding that there was a real traffic accident and called the police. Eventually when she found out it was just shooting, she still didn't care.

However, according to Steven, there was another emotional lady at the scene. She was upset because the TVB van parked by the roadside, still had its engine running and AC on, which really caused an impact to the environment. Because of this, she was unwilling to leave the area. Steven said: "We change in the van. There is a limit, after we are done, we turn off the engine. However, she came over to us and kept talking. I just embraced Linda back to the van. I didn't get into a conflict with her to avoid upsetting her again. Later, we waited until she left before filming the rest of the scene. We eventually got it all done."

Steven continued: "But, I do have to praise the police for their prompt response. I couldn't believe that the police would be at the scene so quickly." He also reveals that TVB had always followed the proper procedures to get permission for outdoor shooting; it was no exception this time. Although the car accident scene yesterday was misunderstood as a real accident, the police did not further interfere with the filming process, it was just because of that one emotional person. Steven said: "That lady probably had an emotional problem, she was scolding us nonstop and her words got ugly too. She said we were selfish, heartless and even told us to be careful from spraining ourselves!"

Raymond Lam sues Apple Daily & FACE for untrue reports

Recently Apple Daily and FACE reported that during the time Raymond Lam was dating Mavis Pan, he hooked up with a girl named Angel (Fong Fong) who is from his hometown Xiamen. The magazines published photos that implied untrue facts. Currently in Beijing busy shooting for new film Saving General Yang, Raymond issued a statement to Apple Daily and FACE through his lawyer yesterday. He was angered by the fabricated and twisted reports. During a long-distance phone interview, Raymond said: "There has been fabricated and negative reports all along. I always laughed them off, but this time I really cannot tolerate anymore! Since the Mavis Pan incident, I promised that I will concentrate on my work, but this time the reports made it sound like I'm lying. This has gone beyond my limit! I feel that even if work is difficult, I still won't retire from this industry, but when my family starts worrying, then I start to think maybe I should give up!"

Raymond reveals that the published photo on the reports was taken several years ago when he invited his Xiamen friends for a housewarming party. Aside from the photos with his awards and dog, the others were not taken at his house. Also, the photos are from so many years ago, he said heartbroken: "Miss Lok had already told the reporters that the rumor is not true, but they still wrote the story anyway. This really violates a reporter's integrity." Since he entered the industry, he had never made such an extreme move by taking legal action against the media, but this time the news worried his family, which Raymond honestly cannot accept. As for Angel, it has been several years since he contacted her, and she is already married anyway. He is worried the reports might affect her family too.

Raymond sadly expressed that the untrue reports have mentally harmed him as well, leaving him in long-term depression and left him a shadow on other people. He said painfully: "When there are classmate or friend gatherings, no one dares to take pictures with me. Even if they did take any pictures, they especially have to ask me if they can post it online! When I go out and there are fans who ask me to take pictures, I would hesitate, it's hard to live on with a shadow!" Also, the hosts on Scoop read out the original text to Raymond's statement.

Virgina Lok: This one's just ridiculous!

TVB Production and Resource Manager (Virgina Lok) voiced her support to Raymond's statement. She expressed that Raymond is still TVB's frontline actor, therefore his image is very important: "If he isn't careful and if there really was this incident, then his promises means nothing. However, this time the reports are truly ridiculous! Those pictures are taken when Raymond had a party. The photos in the bathroom and living room were not taken at his house. This incident also made Angel and her husband unhappy when they innocently got involved!" Raymond's mother also called Miss Lok to complain: "Last time the Mavis Pan incident already hurt Raymond deeply, he was depressed for a long time. He just got back on his feet and can concentrate on work, and now they attack him again!"

Miss Lok expressed after the magazines published those pictures, reporters contacted her to confirm. At the time, she already denied that the photos were from Raymond's house: "But I just don't understand why Apple Daily still published them. Raymond already got TVB's approval before issuing the statement. After so many other negative reports prior to this, his image is greatly affected. Soon, TVB will have a meeting to discuss what we can do."

Theresa Fu exposes beaten by Him Law; Him said may have bruised her while trying to stop her

Yesterday in Beijing, Theresa Fu gave her ex-boyfriend Him Law a 'big gift'. Theresa exposes that she and Him were together for a year and a half, but Him was a four timer, one foot on four boats! Because the two are artists under Filmko, rumors broke out between them. Sometimes they appeared at shows together as a 'couple team', while other times there were rumors that they broke up. Theresa expressed several times before that she met a cheater and was suffering from love injuries, but she was unwilling to admit she and Him had a relationship.

The day before, Theresa expressed on Weibo that she was betrayed and treated harshly by her ex-boyfriend, which left a scar in her heart. Yesterday when Theresa attended an event, she publicly admitted that the person she was talking about is Him Law. Him suddenly got his cover blown, so he seemed flustered, fearing people would crown him as the 'violent scum', therefore he quickly held an impromptu press conference to explain the situation.

Yesterday Theresa attended an event to support good friend MC Jin, and expressed that she will be living in Beijing for sometime in order to develop her career there. She hopes to earn more opportunities to shoot movies and dramas. Asked about her Weibo post? Theresa tried hard to hold in her tears: "This is just an one-sided special column that I'm helping the newspapers write. What I said was of course true events that happened. I'm just writing down my feelings." Asked if she was physically abused? She said: "I experienced that before, the incident happened after I entered the industry. I've never been a 'beat about the bush' person. Everyone often thinks Theresa equivocates when she speaks because she wants to make news. It is a fact that every time I speak, there are many worries, but each time it is from the heart. I once was in a relationship where I was physically injured, but this is the past. I want to put down the incident from here on. Putting the unhappy events deep inside my heart, I feel it's like mentally abusing myself. Before I didn't talk about it was not because I wanted to protect someone, now that I'm speaking out, I just want to drop the unexpressed feelings I have inside."

"I have a lot of bruises on me"

Theresa continues: "In fact, last year when I was talking about it, everyone thought I was saying some of it and not saying some, that I wanted publicity. It was unfortunate because when the incident happened, I just launched a new album. I wanted to say it, actually I really didn't lie, but in fact is completely the truth. Just like when everyone wants to ask me about the Weibo post. Yes! There was a time that Him and I were together (dating), we didn't break up just once and he didn't betray me just once either. During this relationship, I was both mentally and physically hurt. I really wanted to leave behind some things before I left. The past, I do not want to always think about it again."

Discloses that the male party (Him) was a four-timer

Asked how long she and Him dated? Theresa said: "Our relationship has been dragging for half a year. Not long after I met him in 2010, we started dating. It turns out that from the start he already had a girlfriend, but I didn't know. After a year of dating, in December, was the incident when everyone thought I was creating news for publicity. I was betrayed, it is everyone that thought I was lying. I didn't want to mentally torment myself daily, so I did something very wrong, which is after months of the break up, I got back together with him. I really blame myself, he promised me that he will break up with that other girlfriend. Later, he betrayed me again. Not only did he not break up with the girlfriend, but also had 2 other new girlfriends. The situation ]caused a great impact on me, I just feel I was really wrong. After uncovering this event, aside from being heartbroken, I was also physically hurt. I have a lot of bruises on myself, when people ask me, I just say I accidentally fell."

Theresa was asked if she was beaten by Him Law? She said: "In short, these bruises were not caused from falling." Why did he beat you? "Because I uncovered the issue. Last month, we had quarrels because of that issue, sometimes he didn't keep his hands to himself. I didn't want to call the police, and I'm only speaking up now because I want to vent. I am currently not in the promotion period, so I don't need promotions. I just want to drop this burden I have from before, in the future I do not want to hear this name anymore. Just let it end. Today I explained everything and end it here."

Theresa checked his phone leading to disputes

Two hours after Theresa exposed everything, Him Law hosted a press conference through his company's arrangements and clarified the situation. The press conference was just a short 5 minutes and it was made clear that the media could not ask questions. Appearing haggard and with teary eyes, Him Law was quite silent. He sat low to explain the issue. Him said: "After the incident from last time, there were some things we did not handle right. In fact, we really cherished our relationship. I really cherished my relationship with her, so I went looking for her, she gave me the feeling that 'we had a chance', and not long after we were together again. Perhaps it is a matter of trust, we often had quarrels thereafter. She even went to harass my friends of the opposite sex. That day, she checked my phone and we started quarreling."

Him: She was emotional

Soon after, Him started speaking emotionally: "She was emotional, getting antsy, so I had to find a way to stop her. When I grabbed her, I may have bruised her. Later, we felt that there was no trust between us, so it was hard to be together. Then we truly broke up." When Him finished, he bowed to the media and sobbed. After allowing pictures to be taken by the media, his manager accompanied him back to TVB to resume working.

It was understood that Theresa often checkd Him's phone call records. If she finds out which numbers were from friends of the opposite sex, she would answer the calls when they come in and ask directly what their relationship was with Him. As for Him's friends, they also did not believe he would hit her and believe it may be a misunderstanding.

Filmko extremely upset

Also, Him and Theresa's company Filmko apparently did not know about their reunion, which made them extremely displeased. The company decided to cancel all of Theresa's Beijing work and freeze her. Reporters contacted Filmko's spokesperson (Ms. Lee) to clarify. Ms. Lee said: "It was all so sudden, we did not know she would say such thing, so we want to first have her stay in HK to handle and clarify the incident." As for Filmko's boss (Wong Hoi Fung) also denounced Theresa on Weibo that she is not behaving: "Personal matters are to be handled in private. I told her several times that she should not comment in public, and should come to us when there are issues. however, this time Filmko did not know anything about this, someone didn't even listen to what I said, so I don't care either."

Ron Ng's rumoured girlfriend Viann Zhang has been relentlessly attacked by Ron's fans through her Weibo account. Yesterday Ron stood up for her, implying that she is someone important to him. Ron met Viann while filming a series in China. While the two have yet to admit to their relationship, Ron personally picked up Viann from the airport when she was visiting Hong Kong two months earlier and drove back together to his house. Her status as his girlfriend seems very evident. Ron's fans have gotten into a jealous rage over their relationship. Many left hurtful messages on Viann's Weibo. Viann also angrily responded to their messages, further escalating the situation.

Yesterday Ron posted on his Weibo, "To all the people who support me. I believe that Weibo is a place where people can connect with each other in a safe and healthy environment. We shouldn't use this place to argue with others or leave hurtful messages. Please respect others, respect yourself and respect me. I hope everyone will be able to calm down and have a little more self discipline." He later said, "If all of you are really supporting me, then please respect her." While Ron asked his fans to support him in his message, his words could also be misinterpreted as asking his fans to support 'his people' (referring to Viann). Some fans left messages urging him focus on his career, while others scolded him, asking if it was worth it for a woman like her.

With Viann's status acknowledged, it seems she has soften her stance on the issue. She left a message for Ron's fans to apologize, saying she's sorry she destroyed their fairy tale. She believes the people who truly support him will stay by his side. She later says she has low EQ. She can be quite jealous and loathsome, will easily cry over things and is bad with words. Many misunderstandings are caused by this. She sincerely apologizes for her childish behaviour and says that she will put this behind her.

Ron attended a function yesterday and was asked whether or not he will publicly admit to the relationship. He avoid answering and said that he never admitted to dating anyone. He never imagined his fans would be so out of control. The things they said were very insulting and very hurtful. Because he didn't want other people to be affected by it, as a man he felt he needed to stand up on the issue.

TN: Ron used the words, 「請疼我的人」, which means "To those who support me". However, the words can be construed to mean, "She is mine, so please support her." The literal translation could mean that she is 'his people' or that she belongs to him.

Michael Tse blushes when female fan suddenly pats him on the shoulder

Michael Tse, Fala Chen and the rest of the cast to TVB series Lives of Omission were promoting at a shopping mall in Mong Kok. Large groups of civilians surrounded the area to see their idols. When Michael and Fala walked near the fences to take pictures and sign autographs with fans, suddenly two fans put their hands on Michael shoulder and posed behind him. This surprised Michael and got him embarrassed. He said: "You all got me blushing." Later, he expressed he did not mind: "I understand fans just wanted to see their idols in person, it's normal to get touched by the hands. (Can they give you a kiss then?) I have to know beforehand. (Only for good looking ones?) Not that, just I'll be frightened when someone kisses me out of the blue, so must ask first. It's not good to do surprise attacks. However, they are all very polite and gentle, just a small touch, it's not like they were stroking my back."

At the promotion, Michael announced the serial's peak ratings of 33 points. Asked if he has confidence for the TV King title? He said: "Right now there is still a while until the award ceremony. If there are higher ratings and audience support then I'll have more confidence. (Do you want to be TV King?) As a parent you would want your child to be the top student too. Of course every artist wants good results. (Have confidence?) I have confidence in everything."

As for Fala, she appeared to have put in a lot of effort at the promotion too. While signing autographs for fans, she carelessly revealed herself a little and disregarded it. Fala expressed her boyfriend recorded the series to watch later. She said: "He said he couldn't have guess I would look like that as a policewoman because he never seen me like that. (You are usually more dependent?) No. If there is an issue, we usually talk it over."

Ron Ng: We were a couple on day one

Not long ago Ron Ng and Kate Tsui were rumored dating, but they each have other rumors on their own, and may easily be even more brilliant than their actual acting performances! Still, the two do not avoid flirting with one another and having great chemistry together. In each of their collaborations, Ron and Kate feel very comfortable.

Does not avoid flattering each other

Ron and Kate are continuously working with each other, both believe their counterparts are good actors and do not avoid flattering each other.

KATE: In 2004 when I was running for Miss HK, TVB arranged you and me as dance partners, but at the time you were very busy, didn't have much time to rehearse. We never chatted, but I did remind you of the dance routine, you know I was very nervous, so I pulled you to rehearse a few more times with me!

RON: I still remember we did social dancing, just had a few steps, and you even memorized them for me. Later you told me how the steps are like, how this and that would look better. However, it wasn't until 2005's The Brink of Law that I truly met you.

KATE: That was the first collaboration with you. My first series was La Femme Desperado, before I had some guest roles too.

RON: Well I have paid attention to you in between too, you are destined to be in this field. Artists must understand what the director wants, just tell you a few times and you'll be able to give what the director wanted.

KATE: In fact I'm still trying to adapt, it's quite difficult! I was so confused when shooting in the first few years, but you are a co-star that can easily drive me into character.

RON: Well I do see you are slowly improving, it's OK as long as the outcome is natural. The most important is using true feelings to express yourself.

KATE: We worked on so many series together, which one was the happiest for you?

RON: Wax and Wane because we started out dating already.

KATE: This series was indeed pretty comfortable, it's rare that a series starts out with a pair already dating. I already knew you well too, and had many more opportunities for scenes together. The story was just about misunderstandings, many scenes to act out and had to have better understanding. It was like getting to know a friend, even more helpless, hahaha! Actually, collaborating with you is very enjoyable and comfortable. Then am I the most comfortable co-star you worked with?

RON: Of course it's the most comfortable when you sit next to me! Honestly in TVB, I had the most collaborations with you, so naturally we'll have chemistry, it's just like we were a couple since day one!

KATE: I always get influenced by you, I never know what your talking about, take me in circles! When I'm working with you, I always get influenced, and don't know what I'm doing!

RON: Yeah right, you are so good with emotional scenes!

KATE: Because I'm afraid I'll slow you down from getting off work. You try if we're not in the same series, how would that be like?! Many times the one closest will be the most comfortable, no need to waste time trying to figure things out. Artists' chemistry requires time to develop, most important is audience accepts. There are jobs now that are asking us to be together, specials especially books us together too.

Rumors are just for laughs

RON: I have always had a lot of rumors, basically I have a whole list! (Which one was the funniest?) Sire Ma! We never kept in touch, it is a rumor that will never happened, that happened! (What can you do?) Just treat it as promotion! But, there were some I collaborated with that I was never rumored with, that is Joey Yung. The magazines never wrote anything about us, and I think Elanne Kong too.

KATE: I don't have that many rumored boyfriends! (Giving you a car?) It's just rumors, everything is fake, very fake! Like with Matthew Ko because at the time we had the same manager, just treat as promotions, so there was everything...gossips. At first, I was unhappy because I feared this would affect my work, how fans and audience would think. I really minded and got into it. However, it is overtime that I started feeling it's worthless to let rumors affect work. Now it's fine, sometimes it's still unfair, the ridiculous kind.

RON: Which one was ridiculous?

KATE: It was the one that said I got 'kept' (畀人包 or being a mistress) I was really unhappy. At the time, my responses were the most intense because it was just way too over my limit. It was totally an impact to my dignity and reputation! Usually when we are shooting a series, everyone knows what's going on, but I will not accept this type of thing, nor will I do that!

RON: Actually some magazine felt we were awkward, but I think we can still take pictures even after being rumored, it is better to be generous. How about you? Back then, you had some rumors with Leon Lai, what was that about?

KATE: We were just shooting an Ad! At the time I just entered the industry and was still a Miss HK. It was rumored that Mr. Lai bought me a car!

RON: Wah! Just one Ad got you a car?

KATE: I did earn money, but cars you can just pay it off by monthly payments! That time when I saw Mr. Lai, I was just the type that adores him, and thought our distance was far because he was my idol since youth, I felt like nothing. I just felt so strange that I could collaborate with him. In fact, he doesn't do much, he will teach you and chat with you. He won't try to make you feel like the things he says is so profound. Just normal chats. (Won't ask him questions?) No, just so deep, he is personally very charming and has status, but his words are deep, so people don't understand.

RON: Eat breakfast on an empty stomach...haha! Perhaps our IQs are too low, then have you seen Mr. Lai after the rumor?

KATE: When I see him at work, we say hi. It's not a problem!

Kate's mole is the most attractive

In the public eye, Kate's pair of electrifying eyes are a killer. Does Ron think so too?

RON: I think you have an electrifying...mole, so usually I don't look at your eyes, just that mole. This mole is the reason why I look at you!

KATE: I don't think so, I always feel I'm like a tomboy. In fact, I don't quite understand myself, very confused and slow to warm up. I don't know how to carry myself, it is the friends I knew for a long time that tell me how I am.

RON: I always felt you are very much like a lady, getting more and more like a girl and have taste. I remember when we were shooting On the First Beat, you were a tomboy. Now looking more at you....wow...your pair of electrifying eyes is totally a killer.

KATE: I don't even know this myself, is this actually true?

RON: When you're working, you look very strong. Others might think you're a tomboy, but you are very whinny to the people you know well, and reveal the girl side of you. It's a good thing. When you're working, you have your own image. Well, you are basically a girl after all. Collaborating in so many series with you and always working together, I see you are yourself when you are with the staff or colleagues you are familiar with.

Support family and abandon career

Although both Ron and Kate love their acting careers, but nothing good last forever. The two has thought about other paths before.

KATE: Have you thought about how many more years to give yourself? Have you been discouraged and felt like leaving the industry before?

RON: Why won't I be in this industry? Even if I stay all my life in TVB, they may not want me! Perhaps I'll do production work, maybe a camera man.

KATE: Today, I enjoy acting, I like performing. You tell me to suddenly stop working, it's gonna be very difficult. I haven't thought about anything else. Before when I get exhausted from work, I would feel unhappy, but not to the point that I want to leave. If I'm not in this industry anymore, I think I'll be a student again, that is my dream or maybe see if I'm going to be married, meet a good guy and marry, that's OK too. I am willing to give up my career for a family.

RON: This generation, girls will do that. They want to have a happy family more than a career, very superficial.

KATE: A family is very important, in the future I will respect my other half, hope to spend more time with family. When people get older, they start feeling the importance of a family because no matter what, there will always be someone supporting you in the back.

RON: Then will you have children?

KATE: Never thought of that!

RON: I will, but are there babies that don't cry? Many of my friends have kids already, I see them both helpless and happy at the same time. I will have to really think carefully about it. When I'm married, will I have children? As my sister's daughter gets older, I watch my sister so helpless and troubled. However, it is really happy to have a baby, I didn't like babies before, but now I changed. The only thing I can't accept is getting married while being pregnant and I also want to have a daughter first.

Wayne Lai (黎耀祥) won two TVB Best Actor awards from starring in Rosy Business <巾幗梟雄> and No Regrets <義海豪情>. Credit must be attributed to scriptwriter, Cheung Wah Biu (張華標), who fleshed out Wayne’s characters fully. It was understood that Cheung Wah Biu will return to TVB in October 2011 and will partner with Lee Tim Sing (李添勝) on new series, Rosy Business 3 <巾幗梟雄 3>! Upon learning of the “Iron Triangle” collaboration, Wayne was extremely happy. Perhaps he may even win a third Best Actor award!

In his May birthday celebration, Wayne made a wish that scriptwriter, Cheung Wah Biu would return to TVB. Producer Lee Tim Sing confirmed that Mr. Cheung will make a comeback after a 14-month departure, while resuming his role as Assistant Creative Director.

Rosy Business 3 To Film in April 2012

Tim Gor said that it would be difficult for Rosy Business 3 to have continuity from Rosy Business and No Regrets. “Sheren Tang (鄧萃雯) and Wayne Lai’s characters already died and we can no longer continue their characters. Perhaps there are some elements of continuity in the story, such as setting the time line in the 1960s or pre-modern period. The story will be independent from the earlier series.

“I have set the filming period with Wayne, which will occur in April 2012.” (What about Sheren?) “She is currently busy filming in mainland. I have to discuss the matter with her. Hopefully, she will have time!”

Currently working for a television studio in Taiwan, Cheung Wah Biu indicated that he did not adjust to living there. His wife was upset [and wanted him to return to Hong Kong]. “I did not finish my current work projects yet. It has not been settled yet. During the summer, my wife came to visit me in Taiwan. I have been in frequent contact with Tim Gor and Wayne Lai!”

Wayne was extremely happy about Mr. Cheung’s return. Wayne noted, “I heard that Cheung Wah Biu will return to TVB. My dream came true!” (Are you filming Rosy Business 3?) “Tim Gor mentioned this to me. By the time the new series is released, it would be two years since No Regrets. The audience should have a fresh feeling.” (Do you feel pressure?) “I am not worried. They have fought in many ‘wars’ before. I believe there will be new material for the audience to watch!” Unfortunately, Sheren Tang did not respond to the reporter’s inquiry at the time of the news publication.

Charmaine Sheh face darkens, limelight stolen by Fala Chen

Charmaine Sheh, Fala Chen, Moses Chan, Raymond Wong and Susanna Kwan were in Hangzhou promoting for TVB series Can't Buy Me Love. Usually when promoting in HK Fala dresses conservatively, but this time in Mainland, she appears in a low-cut dress and reveals her career line. The Mainland media reported Fala 'killing power causes strong injuries' to lead actress Charmaine, who just showed her legs. Fala completely stole her limelight. It was 'maid bigger than the master lady' (referring to Fala and Charmaine roles in the series). At the event, Charmaine maintained her smile all along when other artistes were speaking, except when it was Fala's turn, she lost interest and her face darkens. Instead, she often chatted with Susanna.

Fala was asked if its because Charmaine's contract expired that she's taking the advantage to sit in the Big Sister seat? Fala looked at Charmaine as she said: "I don't dare to, don't dare to!" Fala also expressed that this is her first time heading over to Mainland as a group for promotion and that her outfit was arranged by her company. Charmaine was asked if her Big Sister status is hard to keep now that she left TVB? She said she never left the company, just changed the contract and she also never thought of herself as a Big Sister, just getting into character and trying her best in acting out the role.

Soon to start concentrating her work in Mainland, Charmaine reveals she'll be taking part in the series version of If You are the One, playing the role XiaoXiao. She will also be going to Japan for outdoor shooting of the series. Charmaine expressed she wants to work with director Yimou Zhang the most because she feels he really understands what women think and does well with women oriented dramas. When asked if she's signing a 15 million Yuan two year contract? Charmaine said: "Confidential! The Mainland paycheck is indeed slightly higher." Moses, sitting besides her, smiled and said he envies. About the rumors that Charmaine has a wealthy Mainland boyfriend, she expressed if she wanted to marry, she would have long ago.

When speaking of ex-boyfriend Benny Chan got married recently, Charmaine does not envy: "Just signed with a Mainland company, so will concentrate on work first. In the next year, I won't consider relationships! Even if I do, there must be a time, place and person that can move me in order for me to accept the love confession."

As for Moses Chan, he is actively pursuing Aimee Chan. Asked if the 'good occasion' is (marriage) coming near? Moses ears turned red and paused for a moment before he said: "Good occasion? Today we are all here to promote for the series, that is the good occasion!"

Shirley Yeung & Sharon Chan the sexiest, Tavia Yeung loses out

Tack Fat Group International Limited hosted their 928 Reborn Resumption of Trading Ceremony inviting 8 TVB FaDan and Siu Sangs to celebrate with them, making it a star-studded event. Sharon Chan, Shirley Yeung, Tavia Yeung, Kate Tsui, Selena Li, Joe Ma, Kenneth Ma and Kenny Wong took part in the celebration yesterday in North Point. 'Hot Legs Goddess' Sharon stole the limelight by pushing up her career line and showed off her back and hot legs. Shirley wasn't bad either, revealing an outstanding body figure while she did a cooking demonstration. As for Tavia, she couldn't compare to them in her reserved outfit and became the big loser.

Can't compare to Shirley and Sharon in sexiness, Tavia laughed: "I've never been sexy. (How is the appearance money looking this time?) When inviting TVB artists, of course need to spend some money, but TVB doesn't charge too much, it is reasonable. Also, today is a big reborn event, must respect the occasion." Tavia said it is not every occasion that there is a need to appear sexy, the most important is dress appropriately for the occasion.

Tavia claimed she knows how to cook Chinese dishes, when asked if she'll cook something up for rumored boyfriend Chris Lai? She said: "He likes my mom's cooking more. (Following the mother-in-law policy?) No, eating with us as friend. (He can 'enter the house'?) Well we are really good friends. (How is your mom's impression on him?) She feels he's a well-behaved boy."

Shirley was asked if it's because she is getting a generous appearance money that she's dressed so sexily? She said: "I'm just respecting the occasion." Reporters teased that she's giving her life for the occasion, she said: "The dress is mines, simply tailored." Did she purposely enhance her body figure? She expressed it's just because of the tight fitting of the dress that created such effect. She said: "I'm not deliberately trying to be sexy, just respecting the occasion and celebrating this company's grand event. The weather is so hot, need to be a little more revealing, it's just because the back is more open, so you all feel it's sexy." It was said she was a feast to the eyes during the games? She said: "The oil was splatting everywhere, I had to dodge by jumping like a live shrimp." Reporters asked if she's usually that sexy when she's cooking? She said: "I usually can't see myself, thank you all for the praises. (Cook for your boyfriend?) Rarely, usually I just go out to eat myself." Shirley said her boyfriend is not good at investment, but when reporters asked if she got a new haircut for a new hope after a disastrous period? She smiled: "I will be happier."
