True colors cannot easily be seen by people, especially for artists, they would want to hide their 'true colors' even more. So, sometimes what audience sees is just what's on the surface. Raymond Lam usually gives people the feeling of 'Chok', 'very Chok' or 'extreme Chok', but in real life he is not someone who Choks even when he's sleeping. In fact, Raymond is actually a pretty funny and clumsy person in real life. In TVB series My Sister of Eternal Flower his funny role is able be part of the fight! Don't believe so? Raymond said so himself.
Wah Dee? (Andy Lau) - Actually it's 'Jump Jump Fung'...
This time in Sister Fa, Raymond plays a playful and spoiled rich boy, always imitating others. Following his imitation of 'Wah Dee', what imitation was most memorable for Raymond? He said: "In Sister Fa, the most memorable part was when I had to pretend to be 'jump jump tiger', wearing a tiger costume and the tiger hat and doing the poses. It feels like the pictures in Hung Fung (HK gay porn magazine), this scene was quite memorable because I have never looked like that before." Seeing this 'Jump Jump Fung' look, it is completely different from his normal 'Chok' appearance.
Chok? - Not considered so...
He was even dressed as a 'Jump Jump Fung' for this series, Sister Fa really does have a lot of comedy in it then. Raymond is normally so Chok, does he feel this series was hard to handle? He said: "To me, this role is considered a breakthrough in my acting career because I rarely do comedy series. When I received the script, I went to ask my friends and watched more comedy flicks to see how I could go do this series. The role is somewhat similar to me personally. Don't think I look Chok when I'm working, but in reality I can actually be pretty funny. The difference between me and the character is that I don't like to yell at people or play jokes on people. At most is I watch others play tricks and I'm standing aside, won't say anything and just steal some laughs."
Prince? -- More like a commoner...
The series makes Raymond seem like a mixed of a spoiled rich boy and a prince, someone who is not into his work at all. As for Sister Fa (Charmaine Sheh), she is like a princess. However, asking himself, is Raymond a prince himself? He said: "Of course not! Only those in a royal family, like Prince William, are the true prince. In reality, I am not like a prince who needs someone to look after me. Actually, I really know how to take care of others, such as I would pass food with my chopsticks to others when eating and help an elder cross the street. Also, I'm actually very concerned for my fans because sometimes I see them waiting outside of TVB City for me in the dark nights, I am very worried that they will get yelled at by their parents or won't have enough energy to go to school the next day. Of course their safety is what I'm most concerned about!"
Change? -- Accommodation is good...
In the series, Raymond trains Sister Fa to become the perfect princess that he sees in his heart. However, in real life Raymond will not force his girlfriend to change nor will he change himself for her. Raymond said: "I feel that when two people are together, it will work with mutual accommodation. 'Change' basically does not work at all. At this period of time, I also really want to be in a relationship, seeing so many of my old classmates getting married and having kids, I really want to do the same. But after all, I don't have much time, I don't want to force a relationship before I actually get to know the person." In fact, Raymond is very busy now. He currently has to promote for Sister Fa and continue shooting for Return to the Three Kingdoms. Then he has to prepare for his July Hong Kong Coliseum concert. Later in the year, he'll be going back to Mainland to shoot the series Yang Warrior. Next year he'll be spending much of his time shooting in Mainland and will do a concert tour. Does he have personal time? Yes, when he's sleeping or using the bathroom.
Big Boy? -- Still a little kid...
In Sister Fa, Raymond is so funny, but in reality he is described by the media to have a 'Chok' look. Then what truth is there in the real Raymond? He said: 'Recently many people use 'Chok' to describe me. In fact, in real life I am not this type of person, but instead many of my colleagues say I'm a little foolish, the clumsy type." Joey Yung once said in an interview that Raymond is not at all Chok in private life. Don't say Joey doesn't understand why Raymond is associated with 'Chok', but even Raymond himself does not really understand. He said: "Actually when it's time to play, I can become like a kid and be very playful. I am that type that can frown when someone teases, and someone without worries."
Smart? -- More like Clumsy...
Raymond's outer appearance gives people the feeling that he's skilled, especially after he portrayed 'Professor King'. Since then, people thought he was very smart, but turns out that in reality it's another story. Raymond said: "In fact I am pretty clumsy, I can easily forget things. For example, sometimes colleagues would remind me to bring something the day before, but on that day I will still forget it. Sometimes even when I have what I'm going to wear in mind, I still wear the wrong thing. As my short memory is pretty serious, the one time I remember most was after work, I left my outfit and forgot to take it with me. Then a colleague played a trick on me and didn't take it for me. When I was walking half way, I felt my hands were empty and it felt odd. It was then that I discovered I forgot my outfit." In other words, Raymond is just a clumsy kid. Chok? Only on screen.
