Charmaine Sheh Accompanied Toby Leung Through Difficult Period 

Recently Michael Miu, Raymond Lam, Charmaine Sheh, Sharon Chan and Sammy Leung have been busy filming TVB new series The Apostle. Charmaine revealed over the new year she played Fish Prawn Crab at home with friends. She played for three days in a row and won several thousand dollars! However, the single Charmaine expressed she'll be spending Valentine's Day at work. She hopes to find her Mr. Right in the Year of the horse. When speaking of good friend Toby Leung's divorce, she expressed she was Toby's bridesmaid at her wedding a few years ago and felt unhappy when she heard the news. "They are both my good friends. A husband and wife getting along is truly a knowledge of its own. Perhaps its easier for problems to arise when they got married at a young age. Since they made the decision, I will support them. I've already been through the difficult times with Toby." Although her good friend got a divorce, Charmaine's confidence in marriage was not affected. "Must learn to get along well with your other half before you even think about marriage. I hope after this experience, they've learned to make choices." 

Its been a week since the crew started filming, but it turns out they still had to work during the New Year, but Michael had a few days off because he had the flu and didn't want to infect the other artists. Yesterday Michael's wife Jamie Chik accepted an interview and disclosed Michael has the flu and allergic reaction in his throat. She said: "He didn't have to work in the past few days. (He had to be on a diet over the New Year, so pitiful!) He tried to eat light as much as he could, but there were so many friends that came over. He couldn't get away from a few drinks!" 

Sharon & Sammy Leung's Funny Passionate Kiss 

Yesterday Sharon and Skye Chan were a driving scene filming in Mong Kok. In the series Sammy Leung plays Sharon's ex-boyfriend and Sammy Sum plays Sharon's fiance. Sharon disclosed she had a passionate kiss with Sammy Leung earlier, she said: "It was a funny flashback scene, and I had to take the initiative. The scene was about how was supposed to look very serious for the kiss, but I don't know why when I saw him, I couldn't stop laughing." Sharon expressed from the first day of CNY to the third day, she was constantly out sending new year greetings to family and friends. Asked whether anyone hurried her to marry her boyfriend whom she had been dating for 9 years? Sharon laughed: "Nope! (How to celebrate Valentine's Day?) Work. If I get off early, then we'll have dinner." 

Meanwhile Raymond Lam was at TVB City to work on the new series as well. Raymond expressed he wasn't really used to filming TVB series again, since he hasn't been in one for a year. He said: "I'm a gangster who is an undercover in this series." He also sweetly disclosed he and his girlfriend Karena Ng went skiing in Japan for Chinese New Year. They spent three days there and expressed his parents wasn't upset that he didn't go home for the new year. "Because I had to work, so I bought gifts for my parents earlier on. Also, they were too busy greeting our relatives and their friends. (Did you send new year greetings to Karena's family?) Nope, but we did wish one another a happy new year over the phone." Although it's only 10 days until Valentine's Day, Raymond said he already prepared a gift for his girlfriend. So sweet!

Tavia Yeung Gets Rushed to Marry Him Law: "I Have a Headache" 

Tavia Yeung was crowned TV Queen for the first time at Astro's AOD My Favourite Awards 2012 in Malaysia last night. She was also one of the biggest winners with the most awards of the night along with Kenneth Ma. On stage, she teared up emotionally and asked her 13th TVB Artistes Training Class classmate Raymond Lam to go on stage and share the happiness with her, but Raymond rushed her and Him Law to get marry soon. 

Tavia: "I give you Him Law" 

Yesterday the stars came back to HK for a celebration. Tavia generously shared the award and took pictures with Him. When speaking of the most touching money, Tavia started getting teary eyes again. Asked why she didn't thank Him when she accepted her award? She said: "Because there's nothing to thank. I couldn't think of what I could thank him for. I thanked all my colleagues from THC, it's rare that every one of us had that much chemistry." During Him's interview, he said: "I got something most important to me in life!" Tavia was asked if Him was referring to her? She laughed: "I don't know! I'm not a thing, I'm human! You should ask him what he has gained! Perhaps he had an unforgettable moment when shooting this series (THC). (He thanked you on stage, were you touched?) He said a lot of other names! (Everyone rushed you two to get married?) I get a headache just hearing it! Nowadays, people's styles are like that. Once there are rumors, there's a huge surge. (Save the announcement of the relationship until you get the award in HK?) Nope, leave it to fate! I won't do any special planning, get award and make money first." When speaking of artists "giving presents" to fans so they can vote for them? Tavia joked: "I'll give you guys Him Law! (Take his nude photos out?) No! We don't have any of that!" 

"Best Supporting Actor" Him Law frankly expressed his confidence has increased and he had a lot of people to thank when he got on stage, but he didn't know why the audience started shouting Tavia Yeung's name. He said: "I'm a guy, so I can be more generous. Tavia helped me a lot in The Hippocratic Crush. (People were telling you two get married.) They're just joking. (Tavia didn't thank you on stage?) I really didn't help her in any way, she deserved the TV Queen award." When asked why he didn't declare his love for Tavia when he got the award? He said: "I don't know what to say. (When you become TV King, propose to her?) Crazy! There is no such thing. Marriage, leave it to fate. Every guy wants a good girl (Is Tavia a marriage partner?) She's a good girl, a marriage partner to many guys, but I don't know if I have that kind of good fortune." Him expressed when he was shooting THC, he encountered the lowest period in his life. When asked if it was the Theresa Fu incident? He said: "Don't mention it." 

Fresh out of the oven TV King, Kenneth Ma, clarified the rumors of him and ex-girlfriend Nancy Wu getting back together. He said they are just good friends and Nancy has a new boyfriend. The rumor is unfair to Nancy, she's a good girl. About his TV King victory, Kenneth said: "I'm very happy, never thought I would bring home so many awards from Malaysia. It is truly a pleasant surprise, but this didn't increase my confidence to get the TVB Award because there is a new system this year. If TVB had the old system, I have more confidence. This year, anything could happen, everyone has a chance." Will he put his new label 'HK Golden House Man God' into good use when trying to increase his votes? "I don't have an account there, or perhaps I'll tell fans to leave messages." Last night, the 'crying threesome' Koo Ming Wa, Mandy Wong and Oscar Leung [and Him Law] won their first acting awards and cried on stage. Wayne Lai shared his experience with them, he said his first award was given to him by Astro as well, but he waited a long time before getting his second one! 

Raymond Lam: "I wasn't joking" 

Raymond rushed Tavia and Him into marriage, but he later said frankly: "I'm not playing, I am serious! They are so sweet. It's strange, they used to keep their distance, but don't know why they were like that this time." It was not only rumored Raymond would get JSG's Most Popular Male Singer this year, but earlier he broke the tradition and still got an award at the JSG Selections Round 3 despite his absence. Raymond said: "I don't know why, each year whenever there are any changes, it's because of me! But has anyone ever thought, I have never won the TV King award?" 

Myolie Wu: "Don't Be Like Us" 

As for Myolie Wu, she said the most touching moment was during Tavia and Him's part. She said: "So sweet, unfortunately nobody had ever said such thing to me." Myolie felt emotional seeing them so sweet, but when asked if Tavia and Him's relationship reminded her relationship with Bosco Wong? Myolie said: "I wish them the best, don't end up like us!"

Kate Tsui was defeated by Tavia at the Astro awards, did she suffer emotional impact? Kate said: "I hope my next award won't come next year. This definitely didn't lower my confidence. The award winners were all well-deserved. THC had such strong reaction from the audience, my fans were a little disappointed because many fans made a special trip to Malaysia to support me." How will you increase your votes? Kate joked: "Kenneth Ma gave out pictures, I will have to betray Raymond Lam and hide some of his personal items, I need to win by a surprise move." 

'Kwan Yee Gor' Oscar Leung and 'Kwan Yee So' Mandy Wong won the 'Most Improved Actor and Actress' awards. Oscar said 'Kwan Yee Gor' has left a deep impression on audience, and brought him a lot more job opportunities. He laughed: "Lately when I went to get my car fix at the auto shop, the mechanic said to me, 'Mr. Kwan, your car is ready'." Oscar embraced Mandy at the moment he won the award, he laughed: "I have never hugged Mandy like that before."

Michelle Ye & Raymond Lam's New Drama "Purple Hairpin Romance" Blessing Ceremony 

Michelle Ye participates in both of the acting and production side of new Mainland series The Purple Hairpin Romance. Yesterday shooting officially started in Hengdian. The lead actor is HK Siu Sang Raymond Lam. "RM" fans (Raymond-Michelle fans) finally get to see them collaborate again after waiting 10 years. 

In the past, Michelle and Raymond collaborated in TVB series Lofty Waters Verdant Bow and Eternal Happiness, but since Michelle left TVB, the two rarely intersected. Michelle expressed although she rarely kept in touch with Raymond in the last 10 years, but when she was looking for a lead actor to be in this series, her old partner "Raymond Lam" was the first person to come to mind. "Raymond looks very noble, elegant and unconventional in costume dramas, and he really fits the 'Wong Sam Hak' role. He was my first choice." Raymond also expressed, despite their busy schedules, it's a rare opportunity that they could collaborate again.

Raymond Lam injuries finger, have difficulty putting on his pants 

TVB Executive Norman Leung hosted celebration banquet rewarding the cast and crew of Three Kingdoms RPG. Raymond Lam, Kenneth Ma, Tavia Yeung, Sharon Chan and Ruco Chan all attended. However Raymond was 45 minutes late to the celebration. He explained while he was rushing over, he carelessly injured his finger, Raymond said: "After shooting a water scene for my new film, I went for a shower. While I was getting ready to get out to change, I was rushing while pushing the shower curtain back and carelessly jabbed my finger into the wall. It was hurting pretty badly and swelled up too. I could barely put on my pants, but it shouldn't be anything serious. Luckily it's my left hand, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sign the autographs." Earlier, director Vincent Lok worked with Raymond on a comedy film and praised his abilities. He said Raymond could do anything, he could be either Chok, not Chok or non-handsome. Raymond thanked him for the compliments and expressed he doesn't have too many comedies, so he's very grateful to have a group of seniors there to help him feel more comfortable. Asked if he has to put down a burden when doing comedies? He said: "No burden at all, especially for an actor, there has never been any burdens. Basically since my first TV series, I have never cared about my image. You can ask Tavia and them too, back then they always asked me 'hey why don't you ever comb your hair?' And I would say, well that's how my character is." 

Supports 'One Vote Per Person' 

As for the 'One Vote Per Person' voting system at this year's TVB anniversary awards, does Raymond think his chances are higher since he has so many fans? He said: "Not related, but I do support this idea because more people could participate and naturally get more attention and higher ratings. Awards are like a bonus, the awards ceremony is more like a reunion." When speaking of Kenneth's breakthrough in Three Kingdoms RPG, many artists from the industry are supporting him to becoming this year's TV King. Kenneth said: "Thank you." Tavia asked: "Did you give them money?" Kenneth joked: "I threatened them in private." Then Kenneth continues: "I don't mind the One Vote Per Person. (Feel more confident with this system?) I actually think the results of this new voting system is completely unpredictable. I believe it will bring excitement and happiness to audience. (More relatives could increase your votes?) Voting like that is awkward. I'll try my best, the award would be a bonus or if I don't get any awards, I'll still be working as usual. (Do you think you'll lose to Raymond Lam, who has a large fan base?) Nothing about who loses to who, there is still The Last Steep of Ascent and The Confident that is waiting to air." Tavia said the new system satisfies audience as they could be part of the voting. 

Rumored Three Kingdoms RPG Sequel

It was rumored Three Kingdoms RPG is getting a sequel, Tavia and Kenneth already had ideas on how the sequel could be. Tavia said: "Kenneth played a childish character, but in the sequel he could be a more serious character, like a poet. As for me, I should be the opposite, shouldn't be so well-behaved, I could be a party girl!" Asked if it should be a modern version? Tavia said: "If it does happen, I think a modern version would be best, so it won't be so difficult for us to film." Kenneth said: "But I'm thinking how I could come back to life because I died. (Tavia: "it will be a whole different story") Doesn't matter, as long as I'm still paired up with Tavia." The reporter asked if Tavia was okay with the pairing? She said: "Okay, of course, we're a pair. (Will audience get bored of it, you guys always pairing up?) Oh no, audience like it. I think if we weren't a pair, audience wouldn't like it and complain." 

As for the other on-screen couple, Sharon and Ruco, they just hoped to have more scenes. Sharon said: "I'm not going to be a guest star anymore, my story has to be longer." Sharon had a very sassy character, does she want to be something else this time? Ruco jumps in: "I don't think she was sassy at all. (Sharon: "Really? How can that be?") Pretty girls, you wouldn't think she's sassy, you would think she's normal. (Do you think your girlfriend could be pretty and sassy then?) Only if its Sharon. (Sharon: "Wait until I throw a tantrum on you and then see what happens.") Yeah you should try." Sharon added: "He's such a good sweet talker." Ruco replied: "Only to you."

Kenneth Ma Strong Chance To Become TV King If Based on Public Opinion

Kenneth Ma Strong Chance To Become TV King If Based on Public Opinion 

This year TVB heavily promoted Kenneth Ma to become one of the front line Siu Sangs. The series he starred in, The Hippocratic Crush (THC), was the top rated series for the first half of 2012. The entire series averaged at 31 points and the finale peaked at 39 points (nearly 2.5 million viewers). No wonder TVB took advantage of the momentum and decided to make a sequel. They even got Lawrence Ng to make a comeback in the sequel, which starts February 2013. 

Aside from THC, Kenneth also stood out in Three Kingdoms RPG co-starring Raymond Lam. The 25 episode series averaged 30 points and young viewers really enjoyed Kenneth's first comedy series. In addition, Kenneth guest starred in two episodes of the popular weekend series Tiger Cubs, where he played the King of Thieves. For the first time, Kenneth got very positive feedback for his villain role. In the coming weeks, TVB scheduled his series Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles co-starring Damien Lau, Tavia Yeung and Ron Ng to release as an anniversary series. Kenneth had been silently plowing through in the past many years, but this year he finally gets the opportunity to seize the TV King title as the dark horse. Also, TVB plans to do public voting for the TV King and Queen this year. Kenneth is also a rating guaranteed artist, his series are usually high rated, which increases his chances of winning. Regarding this, Kenneth modestly said: "I have many opponents this year and there are many other series that haven't released yet. Just like the grand productions The Last Steep of Ascent and The Confidant. I don't dare to put my hopes up too high. If I do get an award, of course I'll be happy, just wait for TVB to do the arrangements. (Do you want to get the award with Tavia Yeung?) Doesn't have to be the TV King and Queen, even if it was just the 'My Favorite TV Male and Female Character' awards, I'll be just as happy. I personally think Tavia has already reached that level in her acting, but she's just missing the award. Among the FaDans, she's one of the very best. In my heart, she's one of the 'First Sisters'." 

Raymond supports public voting 

As for Raymond Lam, yesterday held an autograph session for his photo book IT'S LF in Guangzhou. This is Raymond's first autograph session for a book, no wonder nearly 2,000 were in line to get their autographs. Earlier Raymond had a 800 signature record, but this time he signed 1,200 copies and didn't even get a restroom break. It was said TVB wants to do a public vote for the TV King and Queen this year? Raymond said: "If the audience could participate in voting, then that's a good thing. I support this." Does he have confidence to get the TV King title this year? Raymond expressed: "I'm asked this every year, the question is asked earlier and earlier too. After all, awards are bonus. Actually, what I want most is to portray a role that has development. This year I have Three Kingdoms RPG and Highs and Lows, I really like both series. Being able to shoot these two series, I already have an explanation." Which actress does Raymond like to work with the most? Raymond praised he matches and works well with everyone. When collaborating with different artists, he can quickly develop chemistry with them. 

Audience Wants 'Witness Insecurity' Sequel 

Also, Bosco Wong and Linda Chung's Witness Insecurity have also been well-received, the series averaged at 31 points. Due to the high ratings and positive public response, many fans are asking for a sequel. It appears Bosco may have a chance for the TV King title based on his 'Hui Sir' role. He just completed shooting Mainland series Bread Tree Woman, and got back to HK last night. He'll be starting on new series A Good Heart Goes Haywire in the next few days.

Netizens disappointed of Three Kingdoms RPG's tragic ending

Netizens disappointed of Three Kingdoms RPG's tragic ending

TVB series Three Kingdoms RPG ended on Friday. Kenneth Ma's role SzeMa Shun successfully returns to the future, but he failed to bring his lover Song Yau (Tavia Yeung) back with him. He waited 30 years for another strong typhoon to hit, but as he runs towards the portal to the past, he suddenly gets a heart attack and dies. Not long after Song Yau, who didn't get any older, descends from the sky. The series ends when Song Yau sobs as she looks at SzeMa Shun.

Netizens were extremely dissatisfied with the ending and scolds that the ending was terrible. They believed it was very heartless to not let SzeMa Shun see Song Yau one last time before he dies. Also, its strange that a comedy series had a tragic ending.

Netizens criticized that the ending was very disappointing, the scriptwriters tried too hard to appeal to our emotions, but it wasn't touching enough. SzeMa Shun waited 30 years to see Song Yau again, but Song Yau just had to appear after he dies. It was too tragic that Song Yau had to see SzeMa Shun die, while SzeMa Shun never got to see Song Yau before he died.

Three Kingdoms RPG had a tragic ending just like the previous Witness Insecurity, and both series were produced by Lau Kar Ho, Netizens were displeased by this. There were also Raymond Lam fans, displeased by the little screen time Raymond had. He never appeared after the Battle of Redwall.

Tavia Yeung responded to the complaints, she said: "Perhaps if it was a happy ending, then people will think the endings are always like that. Audience have different demands and different taste. I thought the ending was pretty good and meaningful. Kenneth and I already had a happy ending in The Hippocratic Crush. (Netizens are asking for an alternative ending?) Lau Kar Ho already left TVB, it probably won't happen!" 

Kenneth Ma (SzeMa Shun): "I will bring all the people from the Three Kingdoms to the future. Lau Bei can be the chief executive and Cheung Fei can be the head of the police force, but the most important is that I can marry Song Yau. In the finale, there must be a kiss scene for us too, that's a perfect ending."

Raymond Lam (ChuGot Leung): "SzeMa Shun wanted to bring Song Yau back to the future, but unexpectedly he brings ChuGot Leung instead. Since ChuGot Leung is well educated and talented, SzeMa Shun decides to open a school and let him do all the teaching there and educate more people. SzeMa Shun will be the principal at the school. As for Song Yau, she was left behind in the Three Kingdoms and wasn't able to go to the future with her lover, she sits every day at the location where the portal to the future opens in hope for a miracle to happen. She hopes one day SzeMa Shun can return to the Three Kingdoms, but unfortunately her dream never comes true."

Tavia Yeung (Song Yau): "I get to the future with SzeMa Shun, and teach modern day HK females the good qualities of ancient women and Chinese traditional cooking techniques. In fact, I believe HK females are so busy in the city that they have forgotten Chinese culture, so I will help spread it around. Since I'm back in modern day, I have the freedom to love, just like how it was said in the series, 'good, ugly or bad, its still your choice'. I don't think I'll choose SzeMa Shun! He will instead have to spend more time thinking of how to pursue me again."

Leung Ka Kei (Wong Yuet Ying): "Because ancient women are very pure and gentle, I think men in the future will like them. I'll go to the future with SzeMa Shun and let the modern men know that women aren't just about the looks, but the inner beauty is also very important."

Sharon Chan (Siu Kiu): "SzeMa Shun is too naughty! He should be stuck in the Three Kingdoms as his punishment, so he can crack more jokes and entertain the people in ancient times. Also, it would best for him and Song Yau to get married in the end."

Ruco Chan (Chow Yu): "Don't let Chow Yu die. He has to have a 'relationship' with SzeMa Shun. The two will start out as friends, then turn into close friends."

Cheung Wing Hong (Fan Kan): "SzeMa Shun brings me to the future, so I can continue to serve him. Also, I can keep on being the 'lightbulb' in between him and Song Yau and witness their relationship blossom."

Rachel Kan (Mrs. Kum): "SzeMa Shun successfully brings Song Yau to the future. Song Yau has to get accustomed to life in the future, and they finally have a happy ending. Perhaps the ending can leave room for a sequel!"

Ram Chiang (Man Yuek): "SzeMa Shun brings Song Yau to Mars and the couple opens a KTV and sings 'Always On My Mind' every day, so the aliens can enjoy it!"

Joseph Lee (Lau Bei): "All of us in the Three Kingdoms goes to the future. We go around causing trouble and mess up society. That would be good for a sequel."

 

Tavia Yeung supports Kenneth Ma's acting, not too old for role

Tavia Yeung supports Kenneth Ma's acting, not too old for role

TVB new series Three Kingdoms RPG has recently been attacked by Netizens that it's a sloppy production, Kenneth Ma's too old for the role and his acting is too exaggerated. Despite the criticisms, it was announced yesterday at the promotion the premiere week averaged at 30 points, peaking 35 points. The cast including Raymond Lam, Kenneth Ma, Tavia Yeung, Leung Ka Kei, Sharon Chan, Ruco Chan and the rest of the cast took part in the promotional event. The cast were not affected by the criticisms and happily played the games. Raymond reveals he's planning to celebrate with the cast and crew next week as well.

When speaking of the poor special effects seen in the series? Raymond said: "Already said before there won't be large-scale battle scenes, it's just a simple production using a historical setting." Kenneth is too old for his role? He said: "TV series are to entertain audience, just as long as viewers enjoy watching. The Kenneth I know is very quiet, this time it's a breakthrough for him. He's exaggerated because its a comedy." Raymond also denied the saying that Kenneth replaced Ron Ng. Netizens attacked Leung Ka Kei's acting as well, but Raymond supported her, she was comfortable, competent and respectful towards her work. Raymond said she just appeared in the series, so judgements shouldn't be made too early.

Tavia denied that the series is a sloppy production because it's not focused on the magnificent battles, but rather the theme of traveling back in time. The importance is being able to bring in the comedy and a fresh feeling. As for Kenneth being attacked by Netizens? She said: "I don't think he's old, he performed very well. There is no definition of how old a gamer has to be, could be up to 50 years old." She also praised Kenneth had a lot of development in his role, and has a different style than Ron Ng. She didn't see Ron Ng's version of the role, but she believes they will both produce a different effect.

Also, this year Tavia has 5 series on hand, it was said she can compete with TV Queen Myolie Wu this year. Tavia said: "Last year I had 4 series, can't validate it like that. Many things are about the quality, not quantity. Have to see if its a good time along with many other factors for it to work. (Ex-rumored boyfriend Chris Lai is rumored dating a wealthy girl, if he gets married, will you wish him happiness?) Of course happiness, otherwise do I hope for them to break up?!"

Raymond Lam isn't upset 'Chok Fung' gets used in many series as a spoof

Raymond Lam, Tavia Yeung, Kenneth Ma and Sharon Chan attended the promotional event for TVB new series Three Kingdoms RPG; large groups of fans went to support them. It was rumored because TVB has not reached an agreement with iCable on the broadcast rights for the summer Olympics, TVB decided to use this series to fight iCable. As one of the leads, Raymond said: "I haven't heard of the rumor, sometimes we shouldn't make the broadcast periods too complicated." He is not worried that this series will become a storage series because producer Lau Kar Ho left TVB. Raymond said: "I've accumulated a lot of experience during the filming process, other things, leave it for TVB to decide." 

New series Witness Insecurity makes a spoof out of Raymond's nickname "Chok Fung". Raymond laughed: "All of the scriptwriters have really misplaced their kindness on me. Every series has my name in it, I really don't deserve their many kindnesses. I'm already satisfied enough to be able to shoot one series a year, unless these are also considered show money." Asked if he's upset? Raymond helplessly said: "I didn't watch it, actually there are a lot of names that could be used, thank you thank you. In fact, a lot of my seniors had 'chok looks' too, it's just I accidentally promoted the term." 

Tavia Yeung continues to deny the rumors that she's cohabiting with rumored boyfriend Him Law. She stressed: "I have always been cohabiting with my mom in Tseung Kwan O. Earlier when I had dinner with Him, I learned he intends to move to the Tsueng Kwan O district, for the convenience of work." Tavia was teased that it's actually because its convenient for Him to go out with her, she said: "I know you all will try to relate the issue to us, but it's not just Him, a lot of artists moved to Tsueng Kwan O district too." Asked if she'll suggest Him to look at homes near her area? Tavia said: "I can't do it, its very troublesome for artists to buy and rent homes. I may even get the price jacked up by them. (Buy a home together?) Of course not."

Virgina Lok's 53rd birthday party, Raymond Lam arrives late

July 1st is Virgina Lok's 53rd birthday. It turns out she had her party on June 30th because her birthday is the same day as the TVB Most Popular TV Commercial Awards. In a red low-cut dress, Virgina appeared at the party location half an hour early. When asked if Joel Chan is coming to celebrate with her? She said: "Don't play him, I didn't invite that many artists. Many of them are in Mainland, like Charmaine Sheh, Bosco Wong and Kevin Cheng can't make it."

Although there was a typhoon warning last night, the group of artists including Samantha Ko, Linda Chung, Pierre Ngo, Ruco Chan, Candy Cheung, Koni Lui, Nancy Wu, Eric Tsang, Michael Miu and his wife Jamie Chik, Raymond Lam, Tracy Ip, Kristal Tin and her husband Chapman To all attended the party. Some carried gifts with them. Tracy Ip, who broke her bones earlier, arrived in crutches with Rebecca Zhu. Fala Chen sent her boyfriend Sit Sai Hang (from Neway) out as her representative and EEG CEO Ng Yue also attended.

Virgina's favorite Raymond Lam was late to the party, but it turns out he had to work. He arrived with his cousin Lin Xiawei. A reporter asked Raymond if Virgina was accommodating his schedule, so changed the party date to today? He laughed: "Of course not, I'm busy everyday. How much could she accommodate.
