Yesterday Leila Tong spent time working out at the gym as she recently accepted a new theatre show. She had hired a fitness instructor to instruct her. Due to not exercising for many years, she felt a lot of muscular pain and had trouble getting out of bed.

Last year Leila appeared in the theatre show (爆谷殺人狂 ) and had an outstanding performance. This year she continues to act in theatre. In September she will play a legendary character but will not reveal who it will be. But she expressed that it will be very challenging “I can only say that this legendary character is well known. I find it very challenging, not only do I have to sing and dance but the most difficult part is having to wear a qipao (Chinese dress) all the time. Don’t think that I am very skinny, infact I have a a spare tire (excess weight around waist area). My management helped me get this role and encourages me to workout regularly as they are afraid my waist isn’t toned enough”.
Leila states that since last month she had been going to the gym everyday. Even when she’s at home she will not waste any time and carry on exercising.
