Elanne Kong gains weight to lift weight

Elanne Kong Yuek Lam, Chapman To Man Jat, Tian Niu and Izz Tsui Chi Hei starred new film GO GUI OI CHING (HIGH LIFT LOVE) yesterday held a production start ceremony. Director Herman Yau Lai To attended the event with the actors.

Kong Yuek Lam in the new film played a weightlifter. She gained weight for the role. Kong Yuek Lam said, "Now I have begun the hellish training. Everyday I have been in class with a coach. My arms also have muscles now. Recently I even gained several pounds. The goal to gain over ten pounds. I am already going all out. I am not worried about unable to lose the weight. Now I have weight gain powder, constantly eat burgers, before sleeping I even have beef chow fun. Actually gaining weight is tougher than losing weight." Kong Yuek Lam said that the coach thought she had potential in weightlifting. In the film To Man Jat played her husband. He lost 20 pounds to pair with Kong Yuek Lam. To Man Jat revealed that he originally weighed 168, now he is 140 pounds. To Man Jat said that for a 40 year old man losing weight truly was very hard. To Man Jat said, "I played a divorced man who developed a relationship with Kong Yuek Lam."

Tian Niu said that she made two movies and three television series in half a year. She said, "I just returned from Yunnan, lately I have been so busy but also felt very wonderful."

Kwai Lun-Mei praises Eason Chan as attentive

LOVE IN SPACE (CHUEN KAU YIT LUEN) released a poster in Hong Kong. In Mainland China the film on Chinese Valentine's Day on Lunar July 7 released two Qixi version posters. Aside from the poster, director Wing Shya (Ha Wing Hong)'s personally shot "private couple photos" were released as well.

In a weightless love story in space, Aaron Kwok Fu Sing who was used to making action films and had a dance background of course had no problem. Meanwhile everyone was nervous for the frail Rene Liu (Lau Yuek Ying). However she just grind her teeth and welcomed the challenged. Sing Sing admired her deeply. "This girl is quite something!" Lau Yuek Ying also admired her co-star. "He completely doesn't have the Heavenly King alienation that I imagine, instead he is like a big kid who is also very attentive."

Eason Chan Yik Shun and Kwai Lui-Mei also created great chemistry. Chan Yik Shun had nothing but praise for the elegant and sweet smiling Siu Mei. "Sometimes only I am in a scene, Siu Mei would still stay on the set to observe my performance. Not every actor would do that." Siu Mei even discovered Eason's unique advantage. "Working with him is more relaxing because he learns how to let loose the emotions." Siu Mei even noticed that the side that people rarely talked about. "Eason is quite a gentleman and very attentive. When he sees my make up flaws, he would fix them for me." Angelababy and Jing Boran again played a couple, which was also the two directors' delicate arrangement for this on screen couple to become the compatibility index in the eyes of the audience.

Wire work scares Charlene Choi half to death

The Jet Li (Lee Nin Kit), Charlene Choi Chuek Yin, Wen Zhang and Raymond Lam Fung starred film THE SORCERER AND THE WHITE SNAKE (BAK SEH CHUEN SHUET ji FAT HAI) earlier unveiled a series of thrilling work photos. Ah Sa as the Green Snake and Wen Zhang as Nengren both were hung 80 meters in the air with a dangerous valley below. Ah Sa herself had a fear of heights. However director and action director, "Wire King" Ching Siu Tung said that in order to bring back the thousand year legend world, "flying around" in great heights like Ah Sa and Wen Zhang was "necessary". Even Lee Nin Kit was not spared.

In this scene Nengren who already turned into a bat demon flew with Ah Sa's Green Snake in his arms. They needed to climb 80 meters in the air, around 20 floors up. Although Ching Siu Tung again guaranteed the "wire" safety and even personally demonstrated, Ah Sa was still very scared and worried. Luckily Wen Zhang kept trying to cheer her up and eased the tension. Yet hung on a thin wire 80 meters in mid air, even someone without a fear of heights needed certain courage. Ah Sa started rising and closed her eyes tightly as she kept said, "It's very scary! I don't dare to look, I don't dare to look." She tightly held onto Wen Zhang who was also in mid air. She usually easily made a pose but in mid air it became very hard for her. In addition four giant fans were blowing on the set, their costumes often covered their faces and led to many bad takes. They had to be ascend, descend, and ascend not less than five times. A short two to three minute shot took an entire afternoon. Ah Sa and Wen Zhang spent around a hour in the air. No wonder after the shoot Ah Sa's face was pale and she could not speak for half a day as if she was scared half to death. Another wet "wire work" was also rather thrilling. Ah Sa rose from the water at high speed, the water drops formed a beautiful track in the air.

Although now many high difficult action scenes could be completed in post production with computer generated special effects, but Ching Siu Tung thought that the legend world had to be the most realistic for the effects to be their most wonderful and most shocking. In order for the film to display the Eastern spirit and legendary aura even better, Ching Siu Tung even brought almost the entire cast to the sky. Even Lee Nin Kit was no example. He said, "Lee Nin Kit's usual kung fu film didn't require 'wire', but this time was fantasy action. The fighting wasn't just real kung fu but also magic. Fahai could leap two stories from the ground, how could it work without 'wires'?"

Ruco Chan not worried about bed photos leaking

Ruco Chan and Leung Ka Kei attended a shopping mall event yesterday, but lately the rising in popularity Ruco was half an hour late to the event. When he accepted an interview, he blamed his lateness on filming: "I just rushed over from Sha Tin after shooting ATF Terrorism with Ron Ng. I'm not that late."

It was said Ruco refused to admit he dated Miss Asia Eunis Yiu in the past because he wanted to protect his career. Ruco said: "This is something that happened 5 years ago, luckily the photos aren't anything nasty. That time I was still youthful, fair and clear looking, but it's very normal, when the magazine writes about positive things, no one reads. I hope this doesn't affect other people, we are still friends even after goodbye." Is he worried about exposure of bed photos? He laughed: "I don't think so, but after falling asleep, I really have no idea. If there was anything, it would have been published already. We have mutual trust."

Kathy Chow drags 8 years not wanting to be a mother

All along, Kathy Chow had a gentle and refined image, earlier she took part in Frankie Chan's new film The Lady Generals of Yang Family and then she did a photo shoot for a new set of undergarment ads. Kathy puts on a set of sexy undergarments and is accompanied by an antique background, creating a very stylish effect. Kathy said she and the advertising company collaborated for a period of time already, so she has chemistry with them. Kathy rarely does sexy advertisements, but this time it is an exception because she was touched by the company's sincerity, so she agreed to be their spokesperson for a two year period. Kathy said directly there was a slimming company earlier that offered her 7 figures to shoot an ad for them, but because she didn't want to accept it, the collaboration did happen. As we can see, Kathy has high expectations on her jobs.

In 2004, Kathy decided to move over to Beijing, and maintained a stabled relationship with her boyfriend for 8 years. Towards the recent trend of female stars 'suddenly' announcing their marriage, Kathy has no intention to follow and currently does not have plans for marriage. Asked if her boyfriend has been impatient and proposed to her? She smiled: "Yes, many times, but I still don't think it's the right time or perhaps I'm still not matured yet! (Not worried about problems with having children?) Not worried because I don't plan to have any children. I don't want to be an aged pregnant mother."

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

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

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

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

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

Myolie Wu teases Selena Li, wants to exchange times with her, so can go out with guys

Myolie Wu, Selena Li, Angela Tong, Johnson Lee and the rest of the cast were at the costume fitting for TVB new series Endless Exchange of Enjoyment. The series is about Myolie and Selena exchanging lives by mistake while on a website. At the event, the cast talked about what they wanted to exchange most with others. Earlier Selena was seen with a male companion by the stairs in the back of a nightclub hugging and kissing. Myolie joked that she wants to exchange time with Selena, so she can have free time to go out with a guy. Angela then played Myolie back and said she wanted to exchanged boyfriends with her. Angela advertised to Myolie that her boyfriend knows Kung Fu.

Myolie said: "Angela is just kidding, I almost got fooled by her. She said the person with good Kung Fu is Ram Chiang who stood next to her. (Why did you not generously admit the relationship with Bosco Wong?) Nobody said anything, in this aspect, girls must be reserved. (Can you accept exchanging boyfriends?) Won't hurt to play with, but I'm just saying having a meal together, can't be too over, just making another friend."

Selena denied being intimate with the male friend, she said: "We weren't hugging and kissing, there basically wasn't any of that. I also won't be doing that type of thing with a man on the street. At the time, he was holding my hand to go hire a taxi. It was not holding hands like dating, but just because he was a gentleman. (Is he pursuing her?) We met half a year ago, I don't know if we have different views, but I just hope to choose a boyfriend that can be a husband, so must choose carefully." Myolie frankly said she envied Selena: "Girls should do some dating, meet some friends. I just sleep, eat and work." Asked if she and Bosco see each other less because they are both busy with their own work? She said: "Perhaps you all see him more than I do, I just want to go on a vacation, see if there is fate!"

Kenneth Ma Rarely Brings Women Home; Admits Liking Sharon Chan

Kenneth Ma (???) was regarded as one of the few good boys in the “toy chest” as he did not like to stay out at night. His favorite cartoon character was Donald Duck. The first woman he brought home to meet his parents was Sharon Chan (???), shocking his parents to think that Kenneth had fallen in love!

Kenneth admitted that he was interested in Sharon in the past. Since his career was not established, he was afraid to pursue her. Unfortunately, Sharon was currently dating and Kenneth felt that he was unable to fight with her boyfriend!

S= Sharon Chan; K= Kenneth Ma

S= In Dream of Colors "?????", you portrayed my boyfriend. I gave my first onscreen kiss to you!

K= That was not my first onscreen kiss though! I felt you were very beautiful then! That’s because I love long legs. I’m telling the truth!

S= I thought you like petite women?

K= That’s not true; I also love long legs. (Does rumored girlfriend, Nancy Wu (???), possess beautiful legs?) Nancy’s legs are not beautiful, ha ha! Since you are a loyal friend, then you’re beautiful! You are willing to help friends and also helped me too!

S= Which incident are you referring to?

K= When we are working together, you will help your partner arrange everything. When we were performing in mainland together, my cell phone did not have roaming. You immediately called and helped me with the situation. In the past, whenever I went to mainland, no one can find me. You often scolded me…. Since you are so detail-oriented, you are definitely a good wife!

Lacking Trendy Items; Too Old-Fashioned

S= Yes! I am not that nice towards everyone. Thank you [for the compliment]!

K= We only worked on two or three series together, but we are good friends. When you have problems with your car or when you don’t know about a matter, you will ask me. I will ask you about female-related matters. I overlook minor details. However, we have common topics to talk about. When I watch your series sometimes, I will share my opinion about your performance.

S= That time we took a 45-minute car ride to the airport, I took care of your cell phone roaming problem. You asked why do earth people need roaming and said that no one was looking for you. It was really funny! I was happy to help you fix the problem. Feel assured that you will become more like me when we spend more time together!

K= I am too old-fashioned; I don’t even own an iPhone!

S= Forget about it! You can not take one step to the sky. So in your mind, am I a good girl?

K= Absolutely! You were supporting your entire family by yourself! You injured your neck while filming Can’t Buy Me Love "????". Despite the pain, you did not complain. I felt your pain. You bought a house by yourself. I told you to not work anymore; I will support you!

S= Hey, you said the same thing to many women!

K= You’re wrong! Strictly speaking, I only said this to you only!

Kenneth Is A Loyal Man And Hot Property!

S= Really? Then you are a loyal friend. One time, I said that I do not have money to buy a car and asked you to borrow money. You said you will take care of me, so you will have to buy it for me! You were really serious about the matter. I was only joking and said I had no money, asking to borrowing over $100,000 HKD from you. At first, you asked me to stop joking. When you thought I was serious, you were ready to give me the money. I felt very sweet and wanted to cry at the time. You are truly a hot property! (Beating even Moses Chan?) You definitely have the qualifications to compete! Although you have a car, you would rather take the train. Maybe you wanted to save on gas money!

K= My family lives in Causeway Bay. Taking the train is more convenient. I am a practical person, so I will be a good husband!

S= In the past, I asked you to give many gifts, such as on birthdays. It is not a materialistic matter. I remember that you gave me a lot of Winnie the Pooh gifts. To-date, the gifts are wrapped very carefully. They are very precious! Well I also gave you a gift, such as the Tiger charm in your car.

K= At the time, you said that a black car was very hateful. You said the red tiger will balance the luck. So far, I have not had any accidents! When I went to mainland and were concerned that I would be bored, you gave me a Tiger toy. I still have it by my bedside.

Kenneth: “My Mother Has to Approve My Girlfriend!”

S= I wanted to ask you for a long time; why are you not dating yet?

K= I have not encountered [the right person yet]! I’m too busy! Recently, I have been filming a lot of series and only sleep two hours each day.

S= Did you not encounter a woman that you are willing to sacrifice for? I think you are a person who doesn’t really know how to date.

K= You can say that. All along, I have only dated 3 or 4 times. I am really boring and only know how to play soccer.

S= I am very active; that’s why we are not together.

K= I love staying at home.

S= When you are home, you have to play with me. You have to pretend to be low-level!

K= I play dolls too! I like Donald Duck, so you can play Winnie the Pooh! That’s okay. Actually, my heart fell for you in the past! It’s the truth… because you are a really good person. At the time, I was afraid to pursue you. I was not established; it’s obvious how much money I was making. My father had retired, so how can I think about dating? I am the kind of man who will think about the future while dating.

S= So when you are ready to get married, you will pursue me?

K= It’s hard to compete now! You already have a boyfriend.

S= When I break up, I will call you. I am afraid that by then, you will be dating already. You take too much time regarding love-related matters. You can not force these matters. You need a cheerful girlfriend. The biggest problem is that your mother must approve your girlfriend.

K= It’s the same for you.

S= You place your mother first. I fall in love first and then consider it. I am more rebellious. If my mother thinks he is mediocre, I will ask her to leave the matter alone. But you will not act in this manner!

K= As per the the most old-fashioned saying, “You can choose your wife, but not who your mother is!” My mother is very open-minded. If my mother has a problem with the woman, then there is a real problem!

S= All along, I may have been the only woman who met your mother since I went to your house. After the promotional event that time, we went to see a movie.

K= Since your make-up was very thick at the time, so you came to my house to remove the make-up before going to the movies.

S= When I entered your home, your mother, father, and elder sister acted very shocked. I said I came to use the bathroom. There was a very funny story. When I left the bathroom, your father was reading the newspaper, but it was turned upside down! Obviously, he was only pretending to read it. I bit back my laughter. From this incident, I knew that you rarely bring women home!

K= To tell the truth, you were the first one. I do not bring women home.

S= Maybe your mother thought we were dating, ha ha! Your mother must be very important to you. When we were filming Dreams of Color, your wallet had a turtle on it. I said that the wallet was very ugly and asked whether you would replace it. You anxiously said that you could not do so because your mother bought the wallet. You treated the turtle as if it were alive! Years later, you still kept the turtle wallet. Your watch has remained the same. You are truly filial…. If I were to break up, I will call you to marry me. I have no more time left to have kids; how will I help you give birth to little Donald Ducks?

S= Recently, you give me the impression that you are often flirting with girls. Did you become more open-minded?

K= During filming, veterans advised that I should not only focus on acting out my role well. I need to also make the filming climate enjoyable and the final results will be better! That’s why I will often praise the women as beautiful!

Friends for Life

S= When I do not know how to portray a role, I will bring my script and ask you to analyze it for me. In TVB, no one else will help me in this manner.

K= If I were to encounter the same problem, you will help me too. For example, when I played a flirtatious character, I will ask whether you have this type of friend. We will help each other out.

S= Fortunately we had the experience. It fortunate to be friends already.

K= I feel that we will always be friends.

S= I am very happy that you are leading series now. When you received the Most Improved Male Artist Award, I almost cried. My tears rushed forth. I wanted to give you a big hug, but was afraid other people may beat me up. Perhaps you would have done the same. We have both endured for so long. You entered the industry a year earlier than I did. I am very happy for your success. Many people like you!

S= Have you thought about acting for the rest of your life? Have you ever thought about leaving the entertainment industry?

K= I never felt that frustrated before. I am considered to be lucky. I played cameo roles for three years. To-date, I still love acting. If I were to quit, I will go play soccer! But I will not be able to earn money; maybe I will marry you instead!

Michelle Ye's ability to cry stuns Louis Koo

Michelle Ye (Yip Shuen) is paired up with Louis Koo Tin Lok in OVERHEARD 2 (SIT TING FUNG WON 2). Because in the film Yip Shuen had to go to prison at the hands of her on screen husband Goo Jai, she had to interpret the struggles between love and pain. Yip Shuen's "ability to cry" stunned Goo Jai, who could not help but praise "the Old Lady"!

This was not Yip Shuen and Goo Jai's first collaboration, and the most important to relationship scenes were chemistry and spark. In the film Yip Shuen had many crying scenes. Her tears seemed to flow like she had a tap as she cried on cue. No wonder people on the set made fun of her as a natural crybaby. Even Goo Jai said that he was no match for her. Yip Shuen humbly said, "Anyone else in this character would be able to cry, so it's just that the directors' story is good. Of course, co-star is very important. Goo Jai is able to bring me into character." Yet this time she only worked for a few days. Although Yip Shuen said that her acting bug had its fill, she honestly said that it was not enough. She looked forward very much to working with Koo Tin Lok again. She said, "I am happy to be a part of OVERHEARD 2; but it was just a few short days of acting. If I have the chance I of course would like to work with Goo Jai."

Goo Jai said, "Although I didn't have too many scenes with Yip Shuen, those scenes required proper handling. I had to express the source of our relationship. My favorite scene was bringing Yip Shuen home. We had to talk about our feelings over the years and led up to the final break up. The scene wasn't long, and I didn't have too many lines, but we had to express our helplessness. This scene left a very deep feeling with me."

Myolie Wu remains by Johnnie To's side

Since Charmaine Sheh Si Man left TVB, Myolie Wu Hung Yi has been considered one of the top actresses to take her place. Earlier TVB even arranged for her to appear on the big screen. First she guest starred in BEGINNING OF THE GREAT REVIVAL, recently she also worked on the Johnnie To Kei Fung directed new film LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE (DUET MING GUM). With the golden opportunity in front of her, Hung Yi did not take a step away from To Sir. When she was not in a scene, she would rather stay on the set!

Hung Yi was the happiest about the chance to work with big director To Kei Fung on his new film LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE. The film starred Lau Ching Wan, Anthony Wong Chau Sun and Richie Jen (Yam Yin Chai). Its production took over 2 years to prepare for, Hung Yi in the film played Yam Yin Chai's wife.

Reportedly Hung Yi valued working with To Sir very much. Every time at work she would only be early and never late. She would commit her lines to memory. Earlier when they shot on location at a Happy Valley property agency, Hung Yi arrived early. At the time To Sir was still scouting the location and the worker told her that since the production would not officially start until a hour later she should eat first. However Hung Yi shook her head to decline and then went to the bakery next door for some buns.

Hung Yi returned to the store in less than 5 minutes, stayed in To Sir's sight as she ate and waited while she seriously studied the script. When the shoot began, Hung Yi dragged a child actor around. To Sir often instructed her on how to take her marks. Hung Yi's performance did not disappoint To Sir either, after three takes she was OK. In comparison, Yam Yin Chai who has worked with To Sir countless times was much more relaxed. When he was not in a scene he was chatting and laughing with the crew!

Hung Yi also posted her photo with To Sir online. "LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE has finally wrapped. Thank you To Sir for giving me this rare chance to play a little woman. I am very glad about gaining a lot of valuable experience this time!" Hung Yi revealed that she learned a lot from To Sir and witnessed him yelling at someone, luckily she was not on the receiving end. Before making this film, To Sir asked her to wipe away her previous acting and play this little woman role in an all new way. At the same times she even complimented him as a good director who would instruct actors from the heart. He even caught small gestures that she did not recognize, like snickering and blinking while delivering her lines. Hung Yi was very appreciative and hoped to have a chance to work with To Sir again in the future.
