Bosco Wong becomes Mosquitoes' Dinner during filming
TVB's new series "Burning Flame III" started filming, Bosco Wong originally was suppose to have a very relaxed scene where he says a few lines. But in the end it turned into a pitiful scene, Bosco became the mosquitoes' dinner that night, his skin was served as dinner.
Yesterday Bosco Wong and Oscar Leung were in a warehouse in Sai Kung filming for "Burning Flame III", the scene talked about the two looking for evidence, but ended up getting trapped in a fire that some evil people started, unfortunately they came too late, the illegal oils stations were already discovered by the Customs, so the evidence were all gone, left the two in disappointment.
On the day of filming, Bosco arrived at the set and the sun was already setting, the weather was getting dark. During that time, it is very appropriate for mosquitoes to be present. As Bosco was careless and forgot to bring mosquito repellent. During filming he cannot stop and hit the mosquitoes off, his skin only attracted more mosquitoes, but after half an hour, his arms were red and swollen, it was very itchy.
Work Out to lose weight in order to become Firefighter
Bosco reveals that he often will need to go out into the fire and rescue people, to make the camera angles more realistic, he needs to actually rush into the fire area and take real action. As TVB requested him to be more natural, before filming TVB arranged the cast to go for a 2 day training for firefighting. He said: "being a firefighter, of course will need to have some skills, before filming I will do exercises to keep fit, I already lost 8 pounds. In the past, I played a firefighter before, but at the time I was young, I only had a small character, this time counts as my first time. Training although is hard work, but I really wanted to play a firefighter, so I'm happy about this."
Gigi Lai Too Afraid to Catch Taxis After Brother’s Car Accident
Gigi Lai recently attended a car promotion conference, she said that the car at the function is her Dream Car. Asked her whether she likes to drive fast cars, she admitted that she used to like to drive fast, driving up to 150 km/p/h. But after she turned 30, she started driving more safely. Especially after her brother’s car accident, she feels life is so precious.
Ever since Gigi’s brother had a car accident while travelling in a taxi, Gigi does not dare to take taxis anymore. She has now sold all of her cars, only keeping one car, she does not do much driving herself, letting her personal driver drive her to places. Gigi will be performing at a charity concert tonight in Si Chuan to give condolences to those who were affected by the earthquake.

中港台藝人《以生命的名義》賑災
由四川廣播電視集團主辦，四川電視台、鳳凰衛視和成都電視台合辦的《以生命的名義》四川省抗震救災大型特別節目，昨晚在四川成都舉行，中港台藝人參與演出，東亞娛樂老闆林建岳更率領一眾歌手出席節目幫助四川災民籌款。明天（1日）在香港西九龍中天地舉行馬拉松式賑災籌款音樂會，岳少為免一眾歌手辛勞，特別安排私人飛機到四川接載他們返港，好讓他們在充足休息過後參與義演。＜採訪＞娛樂組
昨日一班東亞歌手，包括劉德華、黎明（Leon）、任賢齊、楊千嬅、鄭秀文（Sammi）、何韻詩和許志安等，齊集成都電視台綵排晚上演出的節目，黎明及華仔更獲安排獨唱，華仔獻唱《中國人》，而黎明則演唱一曲改篇自己的國語歌《心連心在跳》，繼而全體歌手齊聲獻唱由華仔填詞的救災歌《承諾》。
黎明因工作關係，昨晨才飛抵成都為這次賑災演出，Leon更將國語歌《心在跳》改歌詞，變為《心連心在跳》，他解釋，《心連心在跳》意謂大家都是中國人，無論發生任何事及身處何方，都一樣心連心。雖然之前多項賑災活動都未能參與，Leon說，往後有需要他幫助的話都定必義不容辭，正如今次賑災音樂會，他都在盡可能情況下更改工作檔期以作配合，對於全公司歌手大合唱，令他覺得真正心連心很有意義。
Sammi和華仔在救災過程中不忘自娛，當她見到自己和華仔由香港乘坐飛機到四川時在機艙內被拍下的「親暱」照片，即笑謂：「嘩，咁鬼恩愛！一陣大家誤會我係情侶唔知點算。哈哈。」
何韻詩探訪感受餘震
何韻詩早於大隊出發赴成都前，已先行隨樂施會到災區，及後才跟大隊會合。阿詩說，正當她在酒店等候會合之際，赫然感覺到餘震，幸好只是輕微震動，並不害怕。她說，跟隨樂施會參與賑災，讓她體會很多，更學懂珍惜生命。
楊千嬅由美國巡迴演唱會後返港，灌錄賑災歌後，便立刻隨大隊到成都參與演出。她表示，今次錯過了探訪，日後有機會定必出力，災區重建是漫長的路，需要大家長久的關懷。
王力宏陶《手牽手》
王力宏、孫燕姿、陶、許茹芸、信昨午綵排後，接受了媒體採訪。五位明星現場合唱了王力宏、陶為地震創作的《手牽手》，表達了對災區人民的鼓勵和關愛。
雖然是新加坡籍的藝人，但孫燕姿的每一句話裏都透露對災區人民的關心，透露自己想要幫助他們的願望。

Fala Chen appears angry for no reason with a Diva attitude
Since Fala Chen had stormed the ranks of stardom she is getting more big headed according to reporters. During filming “Heart of Greed 2” yesterday she appeared with a diva attitude. However, Moses Chan the double award winning TV King still appeared very friendly.
Fala has been in the entertainment industry for 3 years. Her sexiness and negative gossip had successfully helped her climb the ranks of fame and become one of TVB bosses favored artists. Not only filming one series after another but also having the opportunity to star in a new movie. The overpraising from TVB Bosses seems to have got to her, appearing more arrogant and difficult to work with(diva attitude) . It can be compared to the saying “Not yet Famous but already Arrogant”. Yesterday Fala filmed a wedding scene with Susanna Kwan, Louis Li, Moses Chan, Tavia Yeung, Kate Tsui, Louis Yuen, Dexter Yeung etc for the new series “Heart of Greed 2”. During filming Fala appeared angry (Black face) and hardly answered any reporters questions. She gave a very bad impression towards the media.
Last night all the cast were very cooperative, except for Fala who was wearing a wedding dress as the new bride. After the cast took photo’s together Fala immediately went backstage. Reporters asked her several times to come out and accept interviews but Fala didn’t pay any attention until crew staff had to clear the area. Although she accepted interviews in the end she still didn’t appear to be very cooperative, occasionally pouting her lips. Her responses were quite random “Let’s see, this is my.. First , perhaps second time wearing a wedding dress”. (Do you have the urge to get married?) “No”.
Moses appeared very friendly towards the media and answered all questions without any hesitation. He had a very warm smile and when the reporter asked whether he would get married and start a family he replied “ It isn’t my turn yet”. (Aren’t you preparing for your wedding?) “I don’t know what your talking about? I haven’t thought about getting married yet. In the past I thought about it, getting a random job and having a peaceful family life but since coming back to Hong Kong I have developed the urge to compete. Regarding relationships, it doesn’t mean I’m currently not in one but it’s temporary put aside”.

Sean Lau would like to adopt an Sichuan Earthquake Orphan
Hong Kong’s Bonhams 2008 Spring Antique Auctions and Charity banquet took place last night. Half of the auction funds and banquet earnings will be donated to Sichuan’s earthquake relief plus China’s operation smile Hangzhou Hospital. Guests that attended were Sean Lau, Amy Kwok, Charles Heung Wah Keung.
Last night Sean Lau claimed that he attended the event for the charity purpose and that he didn’t have any antique collections. When asked about the Sichuan Earthquake, he stated that it will take a long time to rebuild homes and hope’s everybody would donate some money for the relief. He has never experienced an earthquake himself, but his wife Amy Kwok has. While she was studying in Los Angeles she experienced an earthquake measuring 5 magnitudes. During the time she was in a lesson and was in complete shock. It seemed similar to horror film scenes and everyone was rushing to escape. Shortly the ceiling had collapsed. When Amy returned to Hong Kong, she saw reports that Los Angeles had horrific aftershocks.
Francis Ng Chun Yu is going to become a father. Sean Lau is a good friend of Francis and had already congratulated him. He states that Francis had been looking very cheerful since the good news arrived. (Asked when Sean would become a father? ) He explains that he has never considered the route of having kids, instead he had chosen the route of Happiness. But since the earthquake incident he had second thoughts and is considering to adopt an orphan from Sichuan. However currently he doesn’t know what the criteria is and how to adopt. But he understands that it won’t be easy or that flexible but will look into it.

Forensic Heroes 2 cast celebrates Charmaine Sheh's birthday
Forensic Heroes 2 cast celebrates Charmaine Sheh's birthday
[Mingpao, Takungpao, Oriental Daily, Wenweipo 29/05/2008]
Credits: Sehseh's Blog
TVB series [Forensic Heroes 2] held a promotional event yesterday afternoon. As the event is water theme, most of the actors were topless while some of the actresses wore sexy swimwear such as Shirley Yeung, Shermon Tang, Vivien Yeo etc. However, the lead actresses Charmaine Sheh and Yoyo Mung chose a more conservative style. Even though Charmaine covered her bikini with a T-shirt, she remains the center of attention as it was her birthday yesterday. Stephen Huynh was late to the event, therefore they urged him to give Charmaine a birthday kiss.
Charmaine laughed and said that she did wear bikini (cantonese slang for bikini means '3 dots'), and her shorts are full of polka 'dots'. When asked if other actresses stole the attention by wearing sexy swimsuit, Charmaine said she did not pay attention as she is not a guy. Instead she really wanted to see Bobby Au in Speedo with his round belly so she was disappointed that he didn't attend today.
When reporters point out that she is the most sexy today, Shirley smiled and thanked them for complimenting her figure. Shirley also made some safety precaution on her swimsuit earlier. In the series, Shirley portrays a girl with the face of an angel but the heart of a devil. She also indicates that there are plenty of fiery scenes between her and Charmaine. When asked if they get along, she said that they are ok and their chemistry is much better after [Angels of Mission 3D]. When Charmaine was asked about her scenes with Shirley, she said that everyone have plenty of interesting scenes in the series.
Mentioning of the rumor of TVB selling off stake, Charmaine expressed that Uncle Six (Sir Run Run Shaw) is a good boss and the company have always been operating smoothly therefore she hope there won't be any changes. She joked that maybe they should give assurance by increasing the salary.
During the game session the male cast members pulled Vivien into the water. Afterward she covered her face with the towel and they thought she was crying. Vivien later explained that she's not crying but because her contact lens was almost flushed off by the water. Regarding being pulled into the water by the guys, she laughed: "Maybe I have terrible social relationship! (Why are you avoiding sexy image today?) I'm a conservative person! Plus, Charmaine is the real star today, so I shouldn't steal the limelight." Vivien said that she is not always dressed sexily.
Producer Mui Siu Ching punished the guys by having them lined up and kicked into the water by the girls.

Jackie Chan, Cho Ji-woo to Promote Hallyuwood
Hong Kong star Jackie Chan and Korean actress Choi Ji-woo will be the honorary ambassadors of Hallyuwood, an`` Asian entertainment mecca'' in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province.
``Jackie Chan was chosen because of his continuous interest toward Korea and also his friendship with top Korean hallyu (or the Korean wave) stars. We thought he would be perfect to introduce the Korean culture to the world,'' an organizer of Hallyuwood was quoted as saying by Yonhap News.
Along with Chan, Korean actress Choi Ji-woo will also represent the Asian entertainment mecca. The 32-year-old actress has gained popularity not only in Korea, but also in Japan and China through dramas like ``Winter Sonata (2002)'' and ``Air City (2007).''
``Choi was born in Paju, Gyeonggi Province, so she was more than eager to join Chan,'' another organizer said.
The two stars will attend a ceremony proclaiming them as ambassadors and also the ``Hallyuwood Start Festival,'' which will be held near the construction of the venue today.
Hallyuwood is a project developed by the Gyeonggi Province that will offer an experience where visitors can learn about hallyu and Korean culture all in one place. It will offer a theme park, shopping malls, hotels and other cultural facilities related to hallyu. It is expected to open in 2012.
Chan recently announced his project of the Asian version of ``We are the World'' for the relief of victims suffering form the Shichuan earthquake with Korean singer and producer Park Jin-young and director Kang Je-kyu.

任賢齊與楊千嬅因為日前不在港，未能與華仔、鄭秀文等東亞唱片旗下歌手齊為賑災歌曲《朋友！忘不了你出現那一天》錄音，昨日兩人到錄音室錄音。剛由美國做巡迴演唱會返港的千嬅，因時差關係，錄音時也有點飄飄然不在狀態。兩人之後會趕赴成都出席5月30日「以生命的名義」大型晚會，小齊指這首歌也會趕製，於6月2日會於網上下載。

Charmaine Sheh Clears Accusation for Ron Ng

[Mingpao 28/05/2008]
Earlier there were reports of Charmaine Sheh and Ron Ng are dating, saying that Charmaine generously presented him with watch and car. Because of this Ron was accused of spending a woman's money and he have not made any appearance nor clarify the rumors since it came out. Yesterday Charmaine attended a charity auction event held by 3D-Gold for UNICEF and said that there is no need to comment on the rumors.
Grieved by the earthquake, not celebrating birthday
Reporters asked why Charmaine is not commenting on the rumors and she smiled: "There is no need to comment. If there is anything to say, let it be related to today's event." Only when she hears Ron being accused of the nickname "eating soft rice", she said: "I want to clarify that there is no such thing." Are they normal friends? "We are colleagues and friends." Is Ron your cup of tea? "Sorry, I drink water", Charmaine joked.
Charmaine said that age doesn't matter when it comes to dating but she is concentrating on her career at the moment to earn more money. Isn't she considered a little rich lady in the entertainment circle? "I haven't earn enough money for retirement, there is still a long way ahead so I need to work harder. Plus, I still love acting."
They also asked about Charmaine's birthday celebration today. Charmaine feels that there's nothing worth celebrating this month. She will be attending [Forensic Heroes 2] promo event in the morning and have dinner with friends later. For her birthday wish, she hope the Sichuan earthquake victims will be able to rebuild their homes, the children can go back to school soon and smooth sailing for the Beijing Olympics. As FH2 first week ratings reached the average rating of 33 points, Charmaine expressed that she is very happy that she doesn't mind audiences complaining her looking fatigue under HD camera.
Additional translation from Wenweipo:
The UNICEF auction event was held to collect funds for Sichuan earthquake victims. Charmaine donated a set of diamond pendant to be auctioned. Lawyer David Tsang bought the pendant at $3800.
As FH2 receive good ratings and is considered the highest in recent year, Charmaine is very happy and said that she will be wearing a bikini to FH2 promo event today.

Hallyuwood -- a conflation of “hallyu” or Korean wave and Hollywood -- features a variety of tourist facilities such as studios where Korean soap operas and films are made, entertainment facilities, museum, shops, Korean cooking classes and restaurants. The park is going up on a 990,000 sq.m site and is to be completed by 2012.
“We thought Chan is a perfect fit for this position to publicize Korean culture to the world, as he has a deep interest in Korean culture and is on intimate terms with many Korean stars,” an official with the Gyeonggi provincial government said.
The martial arts comedian will be present at the Hallyuwood ground-breaking ceremony in Janghang-dong, Goyang City on Thursday, joining Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Yu In-chon and many other Korean celebrities.

Feng Xiaogang and Sammi speak up for Andy
The Hong Kong Performing Artistes Guild has mobilize everyone to raise funds for the victims of Sichuan earthquake, Andy Lau was tasked to gathered everyone and also penned the lyrics for the fund raising theme song - Promise, performing in fund raising events and he's also currently preparing to do an on-site visit. However, everything that Andy does still incur allegations and disputes. On the day of the earthquake, the $100,000 that he donated was listed on the charts of donation, with the status of Andy Lau, it's considered a joke that he donated $100,000 as too little. For several days, netizens had been discussing but Andy chose to remain silent. Recently Feng Xiaogang decided to stand out and say a few words for Andy.
Feng exclaimed that the amount that Andy had donated is what he had requested to the artistes as everyone had to donate $100,000 as it can avoid the media of making up a table of comparison. He said: "Some media production are looking at who donate more or who donate lesser, actually donation is a gather of strength from everyone, it's not a comparison of wealth." He added when the earthquake happened, nobody know how serious it was, they just knew an earthquake had happened, it order to avoid people from creating any problems, thus he requested everyone to donate $100,000, this is the figure that everyone agreed.
Andy had always been concern of the situation of the earthquake, on Wednesday 28 May 2008 he will go for an on-site visit in Sichuan. When interviewed by Ming Pao Weekly, he said that he had yet receive the approval notice from Liaison Office of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong S.A.R., saving people is most important, he does not wish to create any problems for the local organization, when the time is suitable, he would arrange the artistes for the visit.
On the other side, Andy is currently going through professional mental consulting training. He said that the shrink told him it would be enough just to bring entertainment to the victims, he could play soccer with the children, draw with them, do some simple things to allow them to have a humanity feel, because the victims lost their family members suddenly, even losing humanity. Andy said that the visit is not for show, put up a false show for everyone to see, it's rather to allow the victims to know there are still a group of us whom will face the current situation with them.
Meanwhile, Sammi Cheng was interviewed in a 512 Concern Love Action fund raising activity. She was supposed to set off to Sichuan yesterday but she delayed it till 28 May due to traffic problems, she will then set off together with Andy and Joey Yung. When asked that Andy cried might be due to the reports that he donated too little? She said: "Andy had been putting his best for this matter, even if there's areas that he did not do well or enough, everyone please forgive him, during these period there should not be any negative news."

More Donations for Quake Relief as Engines Roar
Action film star Jet Li took a break on Sunday from his relief work in quake-hit Sichuan Province and led a fund-raising car race in Shanghai.
The One Foundation Cup charity race, named after Jet Li's disaster-relief foundation, raised 700,000 yuan (US$100,846) with the help of its star-heavy racer roster. It was the latest effort by the One Foundation which has so far contributed more than 56 million yuan (US$8 million) since the deadly earthquake on May 12.
The emphasis on winning was downplayed at the race, which was held at the Shanghai International Circuit, while racers and onlookers highlighted their best wishes for quake survivors. While supermodel Chen Juanhong and actor Carlo Ng won the female and male games respectively, they held their arms high when receiving the trophies, a gesture to mourn the dead and encourage the living.
Outside the racing track, spectators flooded a reception center to sign their wishes on a huge banner, which will be presented to survivors in Sichuan.
Jet Li said earlier while volunteering in Chengdu, Sichuan's provincial capital, that he has prepared for long-term reconstruction effort in quake zones, and would stay away from the silver screen throughout the year.
The Beijing-based One Foundation recently set up an office in Chengdu to help its staff better carry out relief work.

Jackie Chan Plans Film on China Quake
Hong Kong action hero Jackie Chan said he wanted to make a film about the massive earthquake which hit China earlier this month to raise money for victims.
Chan is best known for action-packed blockbusters like the Rush Hour series but said the new project would represent a change of tone because he had been so deeply affected by what happened in his homeland.
The official death toll from the quake, which hit Sichuan province on May 12, is now over 55,000. It is China's worst disaster in a generation.
"Tomorrow we have big meeting with some directors, some scriptwriters - why? I want to make the movie about the earthquake because there's so many touching stories," an emotional Chan told a press conference in London.
"Every story I've seen just makes me cry ... I believe there's so, so many touching stories so tomorrow we're going to have a big meeting to see what happens.
"I want through the movie to show the whole world, I really want to salute the whole army of China, really."
He added that the movie would "raise money for charity".
Chan has donated $US1.5 million ($A1.57 million) dollars to help earthquake victims and vowed to help rebuild schools affected by the disaster.

Sunny Chan said he's Extremely Shy
Yesterday Jessica Hsuan and Sunny Chan were in the hot weather filming for "Just Love II" outdoor scenes. In the series, Sunny could be said to be the Police Officer as he would stop others from smoking and people who cut queue lines on the streets. The scene talked about how Sunny's "hot tempered" illness arised again, so he was taken to the police station. In reality, Sunny said he is very shy because he's the only son in his family, his parents has always taught him not to do dangerous things. He smiled: "I only will discipline by son at home. I do not allow him to cry and when he's having a diaper change, he can't run around everywhere. I do not dare to tell people on the streets to stop smoking, if they aren't harming our bodies. In most cases, I would just walk away." He expresses that he once witnessed some students fighting, but he did not approach them to try to stop them, just went to call the police for help.
Jessica said Sunny is "40,000"
Jessica greatly praised Sunny's excellent acting. Although in the series he has "hot temper" illness, but in reality he's the "Male Version 40,000". When he sees Jessica unhappy, he would crack jokes to make her laugh. Collaborating with him feels very comfortable. As in the series they are parents, asked how her and her 'son' gets along? She smiles and said that this is their second day of working, also maybe because Sunny has babysitting experience, so the little child actor likes to play with Sunny more.
Linda Born to Act
Linda Born to Act
Sunday May 25, 2008 Hong Kong
Credits: [The Sun 23/05/08]
Many TVB veterans have once said: “Linda Chung was born to eat this bowl of rice!” From Everlasting Sorrow’s Bak Gui Yi, the saying “born to be beautiful, hard to let herself go” was penned. Indeed, there are people who have to suffer to survive in the entertainment industry; there is only a small number of people who were born to be a leading lady. Without a doubt, Linda Chung Ka Yan is the latter.
There are people who say the entertainment industry is insincere, hypocritical, and very fake. However, TVB’s new little big sister Linda obtained praises that she seems very genuine. There is one person who thinks it might just be rumors, but 100 other people agree with her praise. Human affairs are not this ideal, but at least she has many people’s approval. This sweet girl whose style of speech was always like a little kid is only a little over 20. By nature she is modest, but she is not complacent. Instead, she is aware she is still not enough. “I’m very thankful that so many people support me. Getting praises definitely isn’t just by my own ability. Many circumstances helped. When I first entered the industry, I knew nothing. Many veterans happily helped me. For instance, Ah Jeh (Liza Wang Ming Chuen) always gives me pointers. Also, my idol Hoi Mei (Kathy Chow Hoi Mei) said she likes watching me act; I was really happy to death!”
Vigorous! “TV Queen” in Due Time
Although Linda has improved tremendously, she still hasn’t climbed up to a high rank. “I’m fearful of regression! There are times that being an artist, you can climb up to a very high rank and then fall very lowly without knowing. Sometimes, you work very hard, but the outcome is another story! Human nature, there will be falls and it’s not possible to maintain a positive mood. I hope that I can be in control and I can develop in many areas in the future.” It turns out she’s very greedy; filming series, filming movies, singing, theatrical plays, she wants to try them all, but she frankly says that filming series will be her top priority. She aspires to become a “TV Queen”: “Of course I want the award! I will continue to work hard for it. I hope I can do it. Before, I thought I couldn’t. I hope I can become a ‘TV Queen’ in due time!”
Not angry! Losing to Kate Tsui
In the recent “Hong Kong Film Awards”, Linda had a chance to win Best New Performer. In the end, she lost to another golden newcomer, Kate Tsui Tsz San, causing her heart to be pricked. “I continuously supported Kate and was happy for her. However, many people asked me if I’m really upset by my lost. I can say that I’m not! Still, people didn’t stop asking me and so from nothing, I slowly developed something. I really don’t want to be asked this question again!” Linda lost the award, but won a consolation prize; several movie companies offered her roles. It’s not because she’s exceptionally gifted; the bigger reason is because she is “obedient”: “I can easily understand what people want and am quite easy to get along with, bearing the burden of responsibility. As long as it doesn’t exceed my bottom limit then I’ll do anything! Perhaps the director thinks I’m not annoying so they like to use me!”
Love is like the barrier to developing in the entertainment industry. Linda gladly lets go and lets fate take its course. If fate comes along, she won’t stop it. Asked whether or not she would avoid Raymond Lam Fung, this “good friend”? She smiles and says, “In short, our collaboration is very blissful. We are very good friends. Everything has to wait for the heavens to arrange!”
Admiring veterans
Linda is recognized by veterans. Their teachings are naturally imprinted into the heart. As for Linda, what has she learned from them?
Liza Wang
“Ah Jeh is a very professional artist. She’s always serious when working. She’s never pompous when dealing with me. She’s very easy to get along with. She contributed a lot to Hong Kong!”
Ha Yu
“While filming for the new series Heart of Greed II, we have a lot of scenes. He’s really a very good actor. He can momentarily smile through tears. He’s really a natural talent!”
Michelle Yim
“Michelle is a very meticulous person. Although she has experience, she will still write a lot in her script. She does a lot to prepare. As a young person, I definitely must learn!”
Epilogue: Trustworthiness
On the day of the interview, Linda was busy filming. After shooting pictures [for the interview], Linda had to return to the studio to continue filming and the interview had to be rescheduled. The next day, Linda was still busy and couldn’t make arrangements. However, when she had a break [that day], she called up the reporter to make up the interview. Trustworthiness is a must for success. Hope that Linda can keep this trait!
Additional news: Linda is currently recording for her upcoming CD which is said to be released during the summer months. She’s preparing to launch her music career.

There are times that being an artist, you can climb up to a very high rank and then fall very lowly without knowing. Sometimes, you work very hard, but the outcome is another story! Human nature, there will be falls and it’s not possible to maintain a positive mood. I hope that I can be in control and I can develop in many areas in the future.” It turns out she’s very greedy; filming series, filming movies, singing, theatrical plays, she wants to try them all, but she frankly says that filming series will be her top priority. She aspires to become a “TV Queen”: “Of course I want the award! I will continue to work hard for it. I hope I can do it. Before, I thought I couldn’t. I hope I can become a ‘TV Queen’ in due time!”
Not angry! Losing to Kate Tsui
In the recent “Hong Kong Film Awards”, Linda had a chance to win Best New Performer. In the end, she lost to another golden newcomer, Kate Tsui Tsz San, causing her heart to be pricked. “I continuously supported Kate and was happy for her. However, many people asked me if I’m really upset by my lost. I can say that I’m not! Still, people didn’t stop asking me and so from nothing, I slowly developed something. I really don’t want to be asked this question again!” Linda lost the award, but won a consolation prize; several movie companies offered her roles. It’s not because she’s exceptionally gifted; the bigger reason is because she is “obedient”: “I can easily understand what people want and am quite easy to get along with, bearing the burden of responsibility. As long as it doesn’t exceed my bottom limit then I’ll do anything! Perhaps the director thinks I’m not annoying so they like to use me!”
Love is like the barrier to developing in the entertainment industry. Linda gladly lets go and lets fate take its course. If fate comes along, she won’t stop it. Asked whether or not she would avoid Raymond Lam Fung, this “good friend”? She smiles and says, “In short, our collaboration is very blissful. We are very good friends. Everything has to wait for the heavens to arrange!”
Admiring veterans
Linda is recognized by veterans. Their teachings are naturally imprinted into the heart. As for Linda, what has she learned from them?
Liza Wang
“Ah Jeh is a very professional artist. She’s always serious when working. She’s never pompous when dealing with me. She’s very easy to get along with. She contributed a lot to Hong Kong!”
Ha Yu
“While filming for the new series Heart of Greed II, we have a lot of scenes. He’s really a very good actor. He can momentarily smile through tears. He’s really a natural talent!”
Michelle Yim
“Michelle is a very meticulous person. Although she has experience, she will still write a lot in her script. She does a lot to prepare. As a young person, I definitely must learn!”
Epilogue: Trustworthiness
On the day of the interview, Linda was busy filming. After shooting pictures [for the interview], Linda had to return to the studio to continue filming and the interview had to be rescheduled. The next day, Linda was still busy and couldn’t make arrangements. However, when she had a break [that day], she called up the reporter to make up the interview. Trustworthiness is a must for success. Hope that Linda can keep this trait!
Additional news: Linda is currently recording for her upcoming CD which is said to be released during the summer months. She’s preparing to launch her music career.

In Just Love II, Jessica will have a three year old son. The child actor prefers Sunny to Jessica as he would play with him and give him toys. Jessica mentioned that she is not as energetic as him and she is afraid that her makeup would melt under the heat. Hence, she would only play with the child actor when they were filming indoors.
Kevin's Decisive Battle with Poker Experts

Kevin attended the PokerStars Macau opening yesterday afternoon. At the beginning, under the lead of high ranking executives, he observed a minute of silence for the Sichuan victims & expressed that he would donate a portion of his winnings from the event, hoping that many little contributions would add up to something great & help those Sichuan countrymen.
Kevin revealed that during those days whereby he was studying abroad, he and his classmates would play poker. However, the bets would always be US$10 plus. Furthermore, they treated that as a kind of healthy play. Yesterday night Kevin played with world renowned experts and mentioned that he would like to learn the "essential character" of gambling kings for it would be of aid to his acting.
As for recent reports that Stephen Chan's new favouritism Wong Hei would take up most of Kevin's screentime in BF3, Kevin replies, "I don't think so. Actually in the show, me, Wong Hei, Bosco Wong and myself have roughly equal screentime. I don't feel that it is good to bicker about how much screentime we have. What's most important is that we get to bring out our characters. Next week, Kevin will be returning to Hunan to continue with the recording of SCD.
Kevin Hopes to Win Money To Help the Earthquake Victims
This article is roughly the same so I won't be translating most of it. The additions to this is that K says his poker skills are nothing compared to those experts hence the only way to pretend to be better than them is to trick them through his acting .
The other part that you guys will be interested in knowing is that K reveals that he will be flying to Hunan to continue with recording SDC. He will have to record 2 episodes at once hence he is busily trying to remember his dance steps now.

Sammul Chan shooting haphazardly in the hub of the city
Translation: cherishheart
The Academy is filming its third installment, unlike the first two installments in which the handsome actors just had easy tasks like training, this time there would be more challenging scenes such as gun firing, car chasing amidst the crowds, jumping into the sea, jumping off a building to chase after robbers, etc.
Last Sunday (18/5), the crew was filming the gun shooting scene near Tamar. The plot was about some gangsters with guns and hand grenades intending to hijack a police car with criminal inside, and opening fires with the police including Sammul Chan, etc.
On the day, the guns that the actors used were real guns, of course there are big difference compared to the prop guns. Hence, the normally serious and professional Sammul also couldn’t help but to play with the real long gun, shooting it everywhere. However, please don’t worry, when it came to actual filming, it was all empty bullets!

Gillian Chung Secretly Training to make a comeback; spotted looking slim and hardly eating
Since the sex scandal Gillian Chung has rarely been seen in public. It turns out that she had been preparing to make an comeback and had been secretly practising dance routines, learning martial arts and English. A reporter spotted her presence in a dance studio yesterday and she had been practising a dance routine for over 9 hours. Gillian seemed to have lost a lot of weight and looked pretty.
It ‘s almost 4 months since the scandal happened. Last month Gillian was spotted in Hong Kong Central with her friend nicknamed (Aunt) in a furniture store. However Charlene Choi had been appearing at Twin’s functions alone. Gossip newspapers used this to target Gillian by saying she was lazy and slacking work. But Gillian has proved them all wrong as she was spotted secretly training very hard to relaunch her career.
There is a trend for dancing and it’s not entirely sure whether Gillian will use “Dancing” to make a comeback. Yesterday she appeared without any make-up and had been at the dance studio rehearsing from 10am to 7pm. She hardly ate during that time and was only seen eating some bread.
During rehearsing she was very serious and looked very confident, occasionally giving a smile. She also sweated a lot and ended up putting her long hair in a bun. She did appear to have lost weight around her face from her last public appearance. Gillian went straight home after training.
Gillian’s management Mani responds to the media. She says that Gillian’s current lifestyle is going to bed early and waking up early, very organized and well. Mani also explained Gillian’s training schedule “Gillian trains her dancing every week for 5 days. She is currently learning 3 types of dance and during the evening she practises singing. She also takes 2 English lessons every week as a foreign English tutor will visit her house for 2 hours. Not only that, Gillian also has 2 days of Martial Art training”.
Mani declares that she had never mentioned of Gillian leaving the industry and that Gillian had always been in Hong Kong secretly training hard. Since reporters have spotted the whereabouts of Gillian’s dance studio, Mani doesn’t hesitate to send Gillian to a different location. Mani emphasizes with the media of caring for Gillian’s recent news but she is worried that the details released about Gillian’s whereabouts will cause the paparazzi to go after her. This will affect Gillian deeply and she will be unable to continue training hard.
Finally the reporter asked why Gillian had become so slim? Mani replies “ Let's just say she is very positive and training extremely hard for a comeback. I hope everyone will encourage and support her, while giving her space".

Janice Wei Lan Sings in Kuala Lumpur
Hong Kong pop singer Janice Wei Lan gave a concert at Merdeka Stadium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Thursday, May 1, 2008.
The cantopop singer that most fans know simply as Janice, is actually Janice Vidal, the daughter of a Filipino father and a Chinese Korean mother. Being based in Hong Kong, she chose to take the Chinese name Wei Lan. She was discovered while doing backup vocals for Leon Lai in 2001. Lai offered her a contract with his newly formed AMusic label, but delayed her from releasing an album until she had learned more Cantones and generated some underground buzz by doing covers of his songs. Janice Wei Lan has releases four albums since that first one in 2004. Her twin sister Jill Vidal is an R&B singer also signed with AMusic.

Ron Ng: All my money is earned from all my work!; Denies any reports that Charmaine Sheh bought him a car and Watch
In 2006, Ron Ng and Charmaine Sheh was a rumoured couple but those reports have stopped for quite sometime now. Yesterday there was a magazine which said that Charmaine Sheh gave $200000 to Ron Ng to buy a car and $20000 to spend for other accessories including the watch he always wears. Ron Ng faced these reports and denied it all saying that this never happened and since it wasn’t true he didn’t really care about it. He said that his money was all purely earned from his hard work.
He also expressed that his rumours with Charmaine Sheh were untrue and the magazine reports were definitely fake so there was no need to bother about it. He said that he has been working very hard and he earned all his money by himself and expressed that he had a clear conscience.
Ron Ng says he has never received a present from a female: The magazine worded the report which really affects a man’s reputation

Yesterday Ron Ng attended that Apm x Columbia fashion show function and also ran in a circle with a fake Olympic torch, imitating the actual ceremony. Recently there has been a magazine which says that Ron had dinner with Charmaine Sheh, and she gave him $20000 for a watch and $200000 for a racing car. Yesterday Ron Ng expressed that he only knew of this because his family told him. He said “I am confident in telling you that the “magazine” reports are not true! Not a single bit of it! They don’t have any pictures and it has made me really unhappy and will ruin my reputation!” He said that everything that he owns was all from his hard work and he did not borrow any sum of money, “The Magazine has worded the report really badly that affects a Man’s reputation, I hope that they won’t do this in the future”. Ron Ng expressed that he will discuss with the company about this issue or he will take legal action against them. Asked if this news will affect his career and if it will be hard to take this load off his shoulders Ron said that it had nothing to do with him, and the readers will know what is going on.
Never received a present from a female friend
Ron Ng confidently said that he had never received a present from any females since entering the industry for 10 years and he will only ever reward himself. Asked if he had a race car, Ron said “People who know me know I don’t have this type of car!”
Doesn’t have Charmaine’s number
Asked if he contacted Charmaine about this issue, he said “There was no need for it because this isn’t true. Charmaine and I have only filmed together once, and we didn’t have many scenes together. I have never contacted her for personal reasons and I don’t have her phone number!” He compared himself with the people affected by the Earthquake in Si chuan and said that this issue was not worth mentioning. Therefore he hopes that everyone can care about the disaster victims and he said that he has considered contributing a part of his income. For example for this function he said that 20-30% of the amount he will earn today will be contributed to the disaster relief.
2008-5-23 黎明以歌鼓勵災區兒童
圖：黎明認為應多讚揚救災前線無名英雄
四川早前發生八級大地震，令無數兒童變為孤兒，黎明（Leon）昨日以聯合國兒童基金親善大使身份，接受永隆銀行及周大福各捐出七十五萬元的支票。
席上Leon宣布聯同林夕及雷頌德（Mark），為心靈重建行動製作一首勵志歌曲，Mark更破天荒在兩小時內完成作曲，他道：「我也不知道有什麼能力幫忙，今次可以用我的擅長，希望令災難中的小朋友開心一些。」林夕就表示，看到災難畫面已哭過很多次，且打從512起便沒有好好睡過。
望添遊戲設備
Leon表示，現階段最重要是小朋友的心靈治療，所以希望為他們添置一些多元化的遊戲設備，如發熱機、電腦等，因為一些接受截肢的小朋友不能玩康樂棋就可以玩電腦，讓他們可以將歡樂感染開去。同時他們亦準備了一批心理輔導的義工，隨時都可以出發去幫助災民。至於今次的勵志歌，Leon將與小朋友合唱，問他可會到災區探訪？他道：「如果小朋友見到我會開心一些，我亦會去災區。（會否擔心難以面對災區的慘況？）我處理過很多事情，甚至處理過屍體，那味道永世也不會忘記，而每個人也有脆弱的時候，不是經驗就承受得到的，我不是沒感覺，只是冷靜去處理，做合理做的事。（會否助養小朋友？）這是不能用錢解決的，而是要負上責任，最重要提供快樂給他們。」他又贊成葛優所講，不要把焦點放在藝人身上，應要去讚揚前線的無名英雄。
Leon透露早前聯絡林夕商討作歌時，林夕忍不住落淚，今天亦擔心對方控制不到情緒。

10,000 children feared orphaned (STANDARD) 05月 23日 星期五 05:30AM
Unicef is looking for people in Sichuan to open their homes for more than 10,000 children believed to have been orphaned by the earthquake catastrophe.
Executive director Matthew Mo Nam-kit expects it will be a big challenge.
But finding foster families in Hong Kong is out of the question.
We want to ask families living in the same village and community to adopt them, so they can grow in a more familiar environment, Mo said.
We dont want to institutionalize them in orphanages.
Based on the mainlands Ministry of Civil Affairs figures, about 4,000 children have been orphaned up to now and the number is expected to rise to 10,000.
Mo said helping the children overcome their traumatic experience is the main task.
At least 2.3 million children are believed to have suffered physically and emotionally after being rescued from the rubble.
Well send psychiatrists to train local teachers and social workers on what to do to help the orphans, he said.
The organization will also set up community centers for the children.
We need to help them find their families as many are still missing and trapped under the rubble.
The Hong Kong office of Unicef raised HK$40 million to buy tents, blankets and educational kits. To date, HK$4 million worth of relief goods have already been sent.
Its fund-raising target is HK$100 million.
""Cantopop singer Leon Lai Ming, who is Unicef's goodwill ambassador, hopes that by sending computers and toys the children can overcome their traumatic experience by communicating their feelings on the internet.
Renowned local composer Mark Lui Chung-tak and lyricist Lam Jik also wrote a song dedicated to the quake victims.""
Permanent Secretary for Home Affairs Carrie Yau Tsang Ka-lai said Hong Kong has raised more than HK$1 billion in donations so far.
But she warned donors to be cautious to ensure the charity activities are genuine, adding that the department is now "looking into some cases."
Two people were arrested last week for posting their bank account numbers on ATM machines and asking people to deposit donations in them.
The Social Welfare Department also referred to police seven complaints involving unauthorized fund-raising activities in public places.
A Chinese University of Hong Kong telephone poll of 1,111 people showed about 85 percent of people have donated to the quake victims.
More than 99 percent said they are concerned about the news and almost 90 percent said their nationalist feelings have intensified.

Performance Cancellation
The added shows for Kelly's concert for 7th and 8th of June has been cancelled by the organisers. This was because they had felt that everyone's mood was affected by the recent earthquake that happened in Sichuan. As for the later shows from 13th to 18th, there are 3 more weeks to go and they will still go on as scheduled.
The organisers will later announce the procedures to make refunds for the 7th and 8th June tickets. As the earthquake was very serious, Kelly and the 4 major organisers had donated $600 000. Even though Kelly was busy rehearsing for her concert, she was also concerned about the progress of the rescue of the casualties.
When the reporters went to make a check at the ticketing booth, the sales for the shows on 7th and 8th have already stopped. Only the initial dates of 13th-18th June were still selling. Even though there was a report that stated that the sales for Kelly's concert was poor, at the site it was clearly seen that the seats for $480 and $300 for the 6 shows are nearly all taken up. What was left are seats for $200 and $100 categories.

The organisers will later announce the procedures to make refunds for the 7th and 8th June tickets. As the earthquake was very serious, Kelly and the 4 major organisers had donated $600 000. Even though Kelly was busy rehearsing for her concert, she was also concerned about the progress of the rescue of the casualties.
When the reporters went to make a check at the ticketing booth, the sales for the shows on 7th and 8th have already stopped. Only the initial dates of 13th-18th June were still selling. Even though there was a report that stated that the sales for Kelly's concert was poor, at the site it was clearly seen that the seats for $480 and $300 for the 6 shows are nearly all taken up. What was left are seats for $200 and $100 categories.

Niki Chow is currently in Lanzhou filming new series “Legend of the Book and Sword”. She continues to work hard on the series and was not influenced by the earthquake. Although Niki would have liked to attend Hong Kong’s earthquake relief show, she had to carry on working in Lanzhou. Niki stated that on the day before she headed off to Lanzhou she attended a World Vision fund-raise event. “This Sichuan earthquake has left a deep impact on me. Everyone should value the people and things around them. I am very lucky to be living in Hong Kong. Although my parents often worry about me due to working away from home. But I believe that the work arranged by the company is very safe. The cast will hold an fund-raising event in Lanzhou this week and of course I will be doing my best to fund-raise”.
In the new series there will be many martial art fighting scenes. Niki who plays the role “Fok Ching Tung” had been filming this series for over a month and already gained alot of muscle. “I may look tall and skinny but due to filming this series I have been learning martial arts and doing a lot of horse riding scenes. I have also gained alot of bicep muscle”. Niki had been doing a lot of wire-flying but she isn’t afraid of heights “It is very challenging because there are many different movements involved”. Niki feel’s that she had got healthier since filming this series. Every day she would wake up at 7am and sleep before 11pm. She would stay in her room surfing the internet and reading the script as there is nothing else to do. Therefore she feels that this has helped the cast concentrate on filming while being able to relax.

Jet Li Prepares for Long-Term Work in Quake-Hit Sichuan
Jet Li's disaster-relief One Foundation set up an office in quake-hit Sichuan Province Wednesday, shifting its focus from emergency relief to reconstruction.
"Our work here is going to be long-term," Jet Li explained at a press conference in the provincial capital of Chengdu, where the office is based. The action film star flew there from Shanghai shortly after the May 12 earthquake, and has been an active volunteer since.
Foreseeing that rebuilding the quake-hit areas will take several years, Jet Li thinks a local office is needed to help his staff work more effectively. The focus of the foundation, he says, will be rebuilding schools and providing special care for those left orphaned or disabled.
Because the foundation has a star-studded volunteer line-up, the office will also serve as a reception center for them when they are volunteering in Sichuan, Jet Li says.
Jet Li and his foundation have raised 56.5 million yuan (US$8.1 million) for quake victims by Wednesday noon.

While in the church, Kathy would seek advice from the preist (Law Ho Gai). Kathy states that she had filmed most of the series already but there is an explosion scene that had not been filmed yet. In the series she will have a sad death. This series will finish filming before the summer vacation. Kathy will be heading to Beijing in July for work. During that time she will be able to have a glance at the Beijing Olympics. Her favorite Olympic event is diving.
TVB artists paid a 3 minutes silence tribute to the earthquake victims but due to working late for voice-over work the night before, Kathy was not given any information about the 3 minute silence. However when she was told it was too late for her to join the other artists. Therefore she stated that she had been doing this at home. Kathy’s friend who lives in Sichuan told that she would be dressed before bed and be ready to escape if there was a further earthquake.

My heart is I want to, in the past I did have someone in mind, but because I'm busy with work, no time to date, so did not have any further development. But even if I dated, I like girls that are older than me, mature and independent because I am a person that needs a lot of personal space."

Myolie Wu, Wong Hei, and Kevin are involved in a love triangle in BF3. Myolie joked that she can't choose between a handsome man and her childhood idol. Kevin expressed that in the series he will give up his love and chooses to surrender the competition, but in reality he may not do the same.
Kevin, Myolie, and Wong Hei began their first day of work for BF3 yesterday. Kevin and Wong Hei are good "brothers" in the series. Even though he met Myolie first, Kevin learns that Wong Hei also likes her so he decides to let the two of them get together. He encourages Wong Hei to go after Myolie. Asked if Kevin would make the same decision in reality he said, "It's hard to say. I have to see how much I like the girl and what other factors play in. But this has never happened to me before."
Regarding being pursued by two guys in the show, Myolie happily said, "It feels pretty good to have people fighting over me. This is better than me having to fight over a guy every time. (How would you choose?) Ah Hei is my childhood idol. Before I entered the industry, I watched BF1 and that made me cry. Kevin is good looking. It's so hard to choose. (That means Bosco will be relieved?) This time I will be playing his 'sei-mo' Ah Hei is his master. I've been promoted!"
