Posted by abc on 8:19 PM
The actress is said to be pregnant with the baby of her rich ex-classmate
What sparked the split between TVB actress Shirley Yeung and actor Gregory Lee?
While attending an event yesterday afternoon, Shirley suddenly announced that she had broken up with Gregory a few months ago. However, she did not explain the reason behind the separation.
Shirley, 32, who starred in various TVB dramas including Blade Heart and Moonlight Resonance, has been in a relationship with Gregory, 31, for the past nine years. The couple was previously rumoured to be getting married as Shirley was pregnant.
According to an insider, the split between the couple was due to Shirley being unhappy with Gregory's obsession with car racing and that he did not have enough money for their wedding. Shirley was also rumoured to have fallen in love with her rich ex-classmate, Andy.
Shirley was reportedly in tears when she initiated a breakup a few days ago. She admitted that she was seeing someone else, and gave a reason that "no man can accept" for the breakup. Many speculated that the reason for the split was that she is already pregnant with Andy's child.
At the same time, rumoured third party Andy, recently posted on his microblog announcing that he had finally achieved success on a 11-year-old courtship. He also wrote that he will do his best to care for and protect his other half, and that he can make her happy.
At around 7pm yesterday, Gregory, accompanied by his father, appeared at his workplace at TVB.
The actor expressed his shock at Shirley's announcement and said, "I really don't know why. We never had any problems. I have yet to contact Shirley today, and I don't know why she said those things. We were on the phone two days ago."
Tears rolled down his cheeks as he continued, "I really don't know what happened and what made her come to such a decision. We have been together for so long and have been through so much."

Shirley Yeung: Last-Minute or Deliberate Runaway Bride?
Posted by abc on 4:15 PM
Yesterday, Shirley Yeung (???) announced breaking-up with former boyfriend of nine years, Gregory Lee (???). Shirley noted it was a mutual decision to end their relationship several months ago. Gregory’s father, Lee Ka Ding (???), noted the pair had been planning for their wedding. Days ago, Gregory noted that the pair were boyfriend and girlfriend while speaking on the telephone. He claimed that he did not know what had prompted the “runaway bride’s” break-up decision.Shirley’s Break-up Request Came Only Days Ago
According to an inside source, Shirley asked for a break-up with Gregory Lee several days ago. At the time, Shirley’s face allegedly dripped with tears and she admitted to Gregory that third party, Andy Ng, had entered the relationship. Due to the presence of a third party, Shirley had used “a reason that a man can not withstand” to break-up with Gregory. Despite Gregory’s unwillingness, he was forced to accept the change in circumstances.
Gregory Unable to Let Go
Gregory also knew Andy Ng, the alleged third party in his relationship with Shirley. Andy was from Beijing and met Shirley eleven years ago in high school. Gregory and Andy followed each other’s blogs as well. Gregory was shocked that Andy turned out to be the third party. After Shirley asked to break-up with Gregory, he was emotionally unstable. Over the last several days, Gregory has been unable to accept the situation. The Lee family was very concerned that Gregory may commit a rash act [in hurting himself].
Shirley Planned on Leaving Gregory Months Ago
According to an inside source, Shirley planned to end her relationship with Gregory in advance. Previously, Shirley had lived with Gregory’s family in Kwoloon Tong. Two months ago, Shirley bought an apartment in Clear Water Bay Peninsula, Tseung Kwan O. Although Shirley claimed the apartment was purchased for her brother, she moved into the apartment long-term. Shirley only returned to Gregory’s apartment to stay overnight once per week. Two weeks ago, the living arrangements remained the same.
Since Shirley still had a large amount of personal belongings in Gregory’s apartment, he did not see signs that Shirley was considering ending the relationship. When reporters asked whether Shirley had asked for a break-up using “a reason a man can not withstand,” Gregory said, “I have not been able to accept it yet. My emotional state has not stablized. I do not know what to say. My thoughts are very chaotic now. I will come forward to address the matter later.”
The Lee Family: “There Were No Early Signs!”
At 7:30 PM last night, Gregory and his father, Lee Ka Ding, went to work at TVB City. Gregory said that he has been unable to contact Shirley. “I do not know what happened! We have always been fine.” Crying uncontrollably, Gregory asked to stop the interview.
Lee Ka Ding cursed fiercely at Shirley [for the break-up decision], indicating that Gregory and Shirley had been preparing for their wedding. (Were there any early break-up signs?) Lee Ka Ding said, “No, even dead people show early signs! Last week, we had dinner with Shirley. Over the past week, I knew that Gregory was unhappy. However, I do not know what had occurred.”

[News] SJ Leeteuk recalls interesting stories during trainee life
Posted by abc on 7:25 AM
On the June 27th episode of MBC’s Come To Play, the members of popular groups who are under the management of SM Entertainment were mobilized and these artists shared interesting stories about their lives. Super Junior’s leader Leeteuk revealed that Choi Kang Changmin who resembled Kangta, a senior singer under the same management company, was bullied by other trainees during their trainee days.
Super Junior member Leeteuk had entered the company in year 2000 and up till the year 2005, he had been a trainee in that company for 6 years. Leeteuk recalled his memories and said: "When a newcomer who possesses both capability and looks enters the company, there will be a severe “bully strangers” act, and one of (the victim) was DBSK’s Choi Kang Changmin.”
He said: “If you were a trainee back then and had appearance similar to that of Kangta's, you would be receiving the best level of treatment (from the management). Changmin not only looks a lot like Kangta but also possesses a model student image, and because of these reasons he had always been the target of other trainees who tried to impede his progress.” He also expressed that, because Changmin resembles Kangta and hence, as a consequence of that he’d always get picked on by others, however Changmin not only sings well but he also gives a very cheerful greeting.
Super Junior’s member Yesung responded by saying: “I didn’t get the feeling that I was impeded in any way. I would only take care of those who respond nicely to my greetings,” causing a burst of laughter.
He also said: “Back then the company had more than 100 trainees, and because of the intense competition, I often doubted myself and pondered if I would be able to continue on, but as I was feeling low and dejected, I met Eunhyuk. At the moment that I met Eunhyuk, I suddenly had the confidence that “I can do it”. This kind of statement from Yesung made everyone erupt into laughter.

[News] Because of Leeteuk's fickleness, SM Entertainment had to separate trainees by gender
Posted by abc on 3:15 AM
Super Junior member Leeteuk revealed that because he was too flower-hearted*, it resulted in SM Entertainment dividing the male and female trainees by gender into different classes to be handled.
On the MBC TV variety programme "Yoo Jaesuk Kim Wonhee's Come To Play" which was aired on the 27th, the show had invited various idol groups that are currently active in Europe through K-POP such as Dong Bang Shin Ki, Super Junior, f(x) and Girls' Generation, earning everyone's attentions.
On that day's programme, Eunhyuk revealed that fellow Super Junior member Leeteuk used to be "The No. 1 person who would target the female trainees", and that "This was to the extent that even the trainer would warn the new trainees, saying that 'you shouldn't be too close to that oppa'", uncovering Leeteuk's fickleness.
Also, Eunhyuk continued to expose that "Leeteuk would really treat the female trainees well. Even though his name is Park Jungsu, we would call him Park Param** instead." Later on Leeteuk said in a panicked manner that "Even so I didn't go out (with them)" in an attempt to untangle himself from the mess, but next to him, Eunhyuk revealed that "It's because you don't go out (with them) that it has become a problem. That's why before that the trainees received lessons together regardless of gender, but later had to be segregated instead", causing the other cast members to laugh.
Aside from that, the day's broadcast also included talks about their recently concluded performance in Paris, and had received praise from the audience for being able to hear about the Hallyu wave directly from the persons involved within.
* Meaning he chases after different girls all the time.
** Param means wind; also to point out that a guy is like a playboy.

Gets dumped for no reason, Gregory cries

She expressed they had come to a consensus several months ago. It was said the situation had an inside story, several days ago when Shirley broke up with him, she had a face full of tears and told Gregory that a third party named Andy intervened in the relationship. She used the reason "a man cannot accept it" to cut the deal with Gregory. Gregory, who planned on marrying her all along, after hearing Shirley tell him the 'men most pain' reason, the relationship was a bolt from the blue (complete surprise), but as much as he was unwilling to accept, he still had to accept this no turning back result!
The third party is Andy, a middle school classmate of Shirley, Gregory knows him too and follows him on Weibo. It was understood that several days after the breakup Gregory still could not accept the fact, making the Lee family worried up and down for him that he might do something silly. His mom (former actress Si Ming) was so worried about her son that she fainted.
According to an insider, there was already a trace that Shirley would "leave" Gregory. Initially living with the Lee residence in Kowloon Tong, Shirley suddenly purhased her own place in Oscar by the Sea in Tseung Kwan O. Although she claimed she got it for her brother, she moved there for "long term living". In a week, Shirley only went back to the Lee residence once to stay overnight and the situation remained the same until two weeks ago. Also, Shirley still had her personal belongings at Gregory's house, so he had no idea prior that the breakup would occur. Reporters contacted Gregory to ask if Shirley really did use the reason of 'a man just can't accept' to break up with him? And how is he feeling now? Gregory said: "I still can't accept it, my emotions haven't recovered yet. I don't know what to say, and feeling emotionally confused. I will come out to explain later!"
No omen, father Ding Yeh blows up
Last night, at 7pm, Gregory appeared at TVB City to shoot The Boxing King with his father, TVB actor Lee Ka Ding (Ding Yeh). Gregory appeared expressionless, at first he was reluctant to accept interviews, but later admitted that he was surprised by the breakup: "I really don't understand why, we were fine all along. I haven't been able to contact Shirely at all today. The last time we talked was a few days ago and we were still boyfriend and girlfriend then." At this point Gregory started to tear up: "I really don't know what happened or why she had that decision? We been together for so long, both had contributions to this relationship." Then Gregory became very emotional and asked to end the interview there. Accompanying his son, Ding Yeh heard news of Shirley saying the parents already knew about it. Ding Yeh was instantly agitated, then blew up: "Is she crazy? I don't know what's going on, we were planning the marriage too. (Had an omen of breakup?) Where? Only dead people have an omen! Last week, she even had dinner with him. I just know my son had been unhappy for a few weeks, but I didn't know what was going on."
Unwilling to respond, involves 3rd party
As for Shirley, yesterday afternoon she announced the breakup with tears glowing in her eyes. The carefully dressed Shirley appeared calm, and strongly contrasted Gregory. She said: "I will not say the reason for breakup, there was consensus between us. (Do you still keep in touch?) We are still friends after breakup." As the breakup was announced months after the fact, she helplessly said: "I was still diluting the situation. (Whose problem was it that caused the breakup?) There is no right or wrong in love, we tried hard contributing in the relationship before, but it may not work, so eventually we made this decision. (Who brought it up?) We had consensus, I hope after I finish talking about it this time, that I won't be asked about it again." Later, reporters called Shirley again to asked if the breakup involves a third party? She said: "I will not respond, I already said what I had to today." It was said the third party is Andy. A few days ago, Andy made a high-profile announcement on Weibo: "The 11 year relationship finally has results. I will use all my efforts to love and care for her. I believe I can definitely give her happiness."

BoA plays Aya, while Derek plays Donny. The two grow up in different environment, but eventually meet at an underground New York club. Aya and Donny first begins to hate each other, but are then put into a Romeo and Juliet situation as both of their brothers own rival clubs.
BoA and Derek Hough are nearly done with the "COBU 3D" filming. BoA has been very active on her Twitter as she updates her fans with several behind the scene photos. TVXQ's Yunho U-know will also make a special cameo in the film.

[NEWS] BEAST’s Yong Junhyung, Eluphant’s voluntary promotion…they express their affection
Posted by abc on 7:59 AM
Eluphant and BEAST member Yong Junhyung’s friendship is becoming a topic.
After Eluphant released his digital single ‘She Is Not Following you,’ Yong Junhyung tweeted “I just came home after listening to Eluphant’s new single. For people who use twitter, the contents may seem familiar, but it’s above and beyond.” By doing so, he increased anticipation and expectations and promoted the song.
Yong Junhyung, whom we recently met, spoke of their unique bond. “Before debuting, starting from age 20, I was on good terms with Eluphant’s Kebee hyung. BEAST’s current choreography was made possible through him. At that time, I was conned by entertainment company problems and other issues, but Kebee hyung gave me lots of strength and stood by me. He advised me that reading a lot of books is advantageous for writing raps, and even recommended me some poems. It gives me thoughts that he is an elite rapper with great sensibility.”
“After hearing the songs that the hyungs played for me, I immediately uploaded tweets about it on my account. The track was really good. Because we were busy, we weren’t able to see each other often, but even now, we monitor each other and share opinions. To me, he is a hyung that I am always grateful for.” With this, he expressed his affection.

Nicholas Tse personally responds to marital issues rumors after "Treasure Inn" press conference
Posted by abc on 12:20 AM
On June 26th, Nicholas Tse attended the press conference for the release of his new movie <
After the press conference ended, Nic remained on stage by himself to face the Media and officially ‘explain’ the issues that have surfaced regarding his marriage.
Nicholas Tse’s statement to the Media:
First of all, I would like to apologize to the cast and crew of <
When I see all the negative reports related to me, of course I am unhappy; when the negative reports are about my wife, I am also unhappy because when people criticize my wife, it also reflects badly upon my two boys, as they are still young and when they grow up, they will undoubtedly read the reports and wonder why things happened this way. Today, I admit that there are definitely problems in my marriage…my wife grew up in a single parent family and I did as well, however neither of us ever expressed any hatred toward our parents for this. When our first son Lucas was born, both of us were in agreement that we didn’t want to follow our parents’ paths, so our hope was that our son would not grow up in a ‘broken’ family. Unfortunately, today I don’t know how we will continue on together.
If today, you ask me if I still love that person [Cecilia], and if I miss her, I will honestly tell you that I love her and I miss her, but I do not know how to continue on this road together. Even though I heard a couple days ago that she had given an interview and in it had burst out at me, however, yesterday, the two of us were in contact via phone text messages – she [Cecilia] told me that she still loves me and misses me – I believe it, I believe it! This gave me confidence that in the future, no matter what type of ‘relationship’ we will have, both of us are committed to finding a suitable and steady environment for our kids to grow up. We are already adults – in the future, no matter what type of relationship we have, whether it’s love or hate, fighting or killing, we will take care of the matter amongst ourselves, you guys [Media] don’t need to worry about it. I hope that after today, things [in the Media] related to us will return to being work-related. Thank you!

William Chan willing to buy underwear for Charlene Choi, praises her good body figure
Posted by abc on 3:45 PM
The other night, Miriam Yeung and William Chan were guest performers for undergarment brand TRIUMPH's 125th anniversary celebration. However, Miriam expressed through her assistant that she is not in a good mood, and declined to interviews. When she was performing, she got off-key, her performance was only so-so. Wonder if it's because of her mood that messed her up. Before the show, William accepted an interview expressing that he will have body contact with the undergarment models. Asked if his girlfriend Charlene Choi opposes him doing undergarment shows? He said: "I'm just working, I done these shows before. (Afraid there might be a physiological reaction?) No, just a normal show." He continued saying that if he sees a good underwear, he thinks he can buy it for his girlfriend. When asked if he knows Ah Sa's size? He said he knows her approximate size. Asked what he thinks of his girlfriend's body figure? "She has always been fit. (Good body figure?) Good, average, healthy."

Posted by abc on 11:41 AM
TVB artists Bosco Wong, Vincent Wong and Yoyo Chen were photographed by a magazine in their homes and their personal lives were made public. Today (6/27th), the three of them were accompanied by TVB executive Virgina Lok to the Hong Kong Office of he Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data to turn in their complaint letter. At the time, the 'Hong Kong Performing Artistes Guild' representatives, Gordon Lam and Astrid Chan will also be present. As the other female lead in the 'secret photograph' incident, was just visiting Bosco at his house, so she will not take part in the trip to file the complaint. Yesterday, Myolie explained the reason for her absent on Weibo. She expressed there is a misunderstanding because she 100% supports the action to file a complaint. Myolie said: "This is not a situation directing towards an individual, it is in effort to protect the privacy rights of artists in the future. I have already fought for this opportunity to my company, but tomorrow (6/27th), it is necessary for me to remain in the studio to shoot a large-scale scene. The scene involves many production units, so I could not attend." She hopes the other artists colleagues can mentally support them and that the government handles this issue, to protect the privacy rights of artists.

Posted by abc on 11:37 PM
The Hong Kong Performing Art Academy's 25th commencement ceremony took place yesterday. With her years in the film industry Sylvia Chang (Cheung Ngai Ga) received a honorary degree, Chung King Fai received a honorary drama doctorate degree, Joseph Koo Ka Fai received the honorary music doctorate degree and Peter Lam Kin Ngok received that honorary academy doctorate degree.As the East Asia Entertainment boss, Lam Kin Ngok had the support of many company artists like Sammi Cheng Sau Man, Johnnie To Kei Fung, Anthony Wong Chau Sun, Andrew Lau Wai Keung, Richie Jen (Yam Yin Chai), Ivana Wong Yuen Chi, Wilfred Lau Ho Lung and Denise Ho Wan Si. Lam Kin Ngok's mother, children, Mr. and Mrs. Lam Kin Hong and Lam Kin Ming also attended. Even Michelle who was linked in rumor with Lam Kin Ngok attended.
Lam Kin Nogk was asked whether he would like to share the doctorate degree with his father the most. He said of course, at night he would offer incense and he should be happy. His artists said that the boss had everything so they did not consider giving a gift. He said, "Since they were willing to sign with me, they don't need to. As long as Sammi doesn't give me a red bomb (wedding invitation) I am fine. I didn't hear any news, next time I would ask her for everyone." Lam Kin Ngok pointed out that everyone was like him and wanted to see them get married! Earlier Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi was rumored to sign with Lam Kin Ngok, but Mr. Lam explained that it was a film negotiation. How was the progress? He said that so far he has not seen Pak Chi. He said that the film will not start work until next year so he did not need to be in any hurry. Pak Chi is currently under marriage and family troubles, Lam Kin Ngok stressed that he would not add his opinion on other people's family matters. His only interest was in Nicholas Tse Ting Fung's sons to be in show business.
As a Christian Cheng Sau Man said that her gift to congratulate the boss' honorary degree was to spread the gospel to him. She also said that she was the biggest gift to the boss. Sammi said that everyone's achievement was different, she would not force herself to see anyone as a goal. Sammi and Andy Hui Chi On got back together. Earlier they visited Japan together. Sammi revealed that On Jai did not propose to her as rumored. She said that she did not long much for marriage. Currently their relationship was pleasant and did not need too much change. Did they try to have a baby on the trip? Sammi did not directly answer. "That sounds so vulgar, this is the Performing Art Academy. Asking like that is too daring." Would Sammi see the boss as a goal? She joked, "His figure? I don't want to develop sideways." Ho Wan Si joked, "You develop sharply, sharp sharp sharp!" Sammi responded that she developed flatly. She said that she would not have a big belly like the boss.
In addition, Cheung Ngai Ga's family, friends and disciples Angelica Lee Sinjie and Rene Liu (Lau Yeuk Ying) attended in support. Lee Sinjie pointed out that Lau Yeuk Ying had to work in Taiwan and left in a hurry. She said that the mentor's determination was worth learning from as she always saw her as a goal. To Kei Fung said that recently he has been busy with a film so he did not deliberately ask Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi to make a movie. He also did not pay attention to their marriage trouble news. Koo Ka Fai honestly said that he never thought about winning an award. Later he will celebrate with his family. Chung King Fai said that he would never retire.

Chrissie Chau wants to be Michelle Yeoh
Posted by abc on 7:27 PM
In the Chrissie Chau Sau Na, Theresa Fu Wing, Jessica C. starred BEACH SPIKE (YIT LONG KAU OI JIN), Chau Sau Na and Fu Wing in order to win a beach volleyball competition studied Chinese kung fu with Law Mong and Yeung Pan Pan in order to strengthen their beach volleyball playing physical abilities and techniques.In recent years Yeung Pan Pan opened "Hit Hut Film Action Training Workshop". Before the shoot Chau Sau Na went to class with Sister Pan Pan. Chau Sau Na said, "I have almost zero knowledge of kung fu. Luckily the producer and the director arranged for us to take a few lessons with Sister Pan Pan, so we didn't look girly on camera. I thought kung fu was pretty fun. If I became an international action superstar like Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King) it would be worth all the bruises!"
A fight scene was quite memorable for Fu Wing. "In one scene a group of strangers came to start trouble. I had to strike back with empty hands and kicks. I also had to push one of the stunt people's head onto the table and pour chocolate powder on him. When I hit him, he spat and all the chocolate powder went on my face with a direct hit!"

She also said that she just celebrated with Chan Ho Sun for his special achievement award, when she actually had one to accept as well. "That day I thought I was accompanying Peter to accept the award and visit Italy. On the day when Peter accepted the award, the event chair told me that I was in competition as well. I didn't know at all and asked him which movie. That was when I learned that ALL ABOUT LOVE was in competition and the result would be announced nine days later. Peter even put me down and said the competition was strong, in addition some of them like Fan Bingbing and Tang Wei have won Best Actress with their films so it would not be my turn to win. He sank my confidence so I didn't think about it. Yesterday I received the good news, it is truly too surprising!"
