The stage version of "Be My Guest" was held yesterday. Sandra Ng and Carol Ng were the guests, Leo Ku and Gillian Chung were the special guests. Since February 2008, Ah Gil performed on stage for a fund-raising event under Twins, she has not stepped on stage since then. Now Ah Gil is back on stage again as the "Life Hotline Ambassador" participating in the stage version of "Be My Guest". Stephan Chan also was the one who introduced Ah Gil on stage: "This friend we have not known for that long, she went from having everything to having nothing, but I am proud of her, she once thought of ending her life, she believed that her future road would be hard to walk." Ah Gil sang a song on stage and won everyone's applause.

The "Two Missing One" Ah Gil got her boss Albert Yeung, her manager Mani Fok and good sister Charlene Choi supporting her below the stage, her performance was quite calm. After her performance, she voiced her feelings with the audience, sharing her methods of getting through the most difficult time of her life: "Last year was the downest time of my 28 years of life. This time was very difficult, but in the end I did not give up on myself, every person won't give up." Afterwards, Mani expressed on behalf of Ah Gil: "The first time Ah Gil heard Stephan Chan's introduction of her, she felt very touched and cried, but because she did not want to affect her performance, therefore she spent two weeks rehearsing for the song she was going to perform, so therefore she held in her tears when appearing on stage, she held it so much that her voice was shaking. She had not appeared on stage for more than a year, we saw that everyone still supports her, she is very touched."

Among all the male co-stars, Jessica Hsuan has collaborated the most with Bowie Lam, Bobby Au Yeung and Louis Koo. If there was an opportunity, which male actor would she want to collaborate with the most? [Translated by: aZnangel]

Gallen Lo

"Ever since "Golden Faith," we have not had the chance to work together. Besides, the chances of us working together is very uncertain. I think he might immigrate to Beijing? Everytime I re-watch GF, I would think it would be good to collaborate again. Since a great (acting) partner is very hard to encounter."

Moses Chan

"He is an actor that I would like to try and collaborate with even though we never worked together. However, under my observations at the studio, he is a very serious person at work and he is a very hardworking male artiste. I've filmed series for over ten years, and the male actors are usually the same person..."

Damian Lau

"He gives me the feeling of a very father figure, and he also sees me as a daughter. He frequently tells me about his life experiences. From me, he sometimes sees the younger version of himself, and he would talk to me about it. He hopes that I don't commit the wrongs he did. Damian Gor is a very professional actor. If new actors have the chance to learn from him, it is basically, "Giving you money and putting it in your pocket." It is very comfortable filming with him, even though we only collaborated once. I hope we still have the chance to play father and daughter. As for playing a couple, I am presently okay with it because Damian Gor is very cool!"

Note: The article titles : Jessica Hsuan a "big woman", don't love "little man". Most of it is about upcoming series Just Love II.

Charlie Yeung and Gigi Leung are the ambassadors for "HER2-type breast cancer" awareness. The other day, they were having the photo session for the promotion. Both of them wore very similar outfit as if they were twins. They are hoping this promotion would help to raise the morale for the sufferers.

Charlie urges all women in Hong Kong to pay more attention to their own body, in particular, to detect breast cancer early. Gigi also reminds all the women to have regular body check, specially their breasts so that treatment can be started as early as possible if breast cancer is identified. She also stressed that women should have all the information about breast cancer and system in place to support sufferers. It's "mother's Day" today, Gigi and Charlie suggest that it would be more meaningful for people to donate money to the treatment and medical care for "HER2 breast cancer" patients instead of buying presents for their mothers.

My record has reached the"platinum" sale so I am much happier now."

Joey disclosed that she will have more shows. The reporter asked if she wants to be more visible to retain her "music queen" title. Joey said she has never thought about doing things like that.

I don't take much notice of that." To celebrate her life in the music circle for the last 10 years, Joey has designed her own website (http://www.joeyyung.hk) which she would like to share her MV with her fans.

Last night, TVB new series "Born Rich" was filming for Kenix Kwok and Ray Lui's wedding scene. The crew members used a cruise for the scene, the two main leads had to climb up 40 stories, kissing and hugging nonstop. During the time, the two even did the classic hugging scene on the ship from popular film "Titanic". During filming, it was cold and windy, Ray would often take off his coat from his tuxedo to put on Kenix to warm her up.

Kenix fortunately does not have a fear of heights, she said: "When I was climbing up the ship, there were many behind the scenes crew members protecting me, if not, it would be very dangerous. As for pretending to be in the "Titanic" pose, I totally trusted Ray." She frankly said that this time filming the wedding scene on a ship, made her think back to the time she and Frankie Lam got married. "If I knew I could do this type of wedding, I would want to try."

As for me, I will have disinfectants before I do radio programs, also won't shake hands with people as much"

Kenix Kwok is not too worried about the Swine Flu, the most important thing is to be aware of your personal hygiene, "Hong Kong people had already experienced the SARS, they understand how to take care of themselves, therefore I'm not in too much of a panic."

Ella Koon was recently rumored with a young wealthy Millionaire. It was said that the two were at the car garage kissing intimately. Yesterday Ella saw the news and said that he's a good friend of hers for many years, their relationship is like "brothers". She said that the pictures are from two months ago when they were photographed by the media. That night, the two met up for a movie and went to pick up their car at the garage afterwards. During the time, they did not have any intimate interactions whatsoever, not even hand holding.

Ella said that she's not sure if her friend is wealthy or not, they have been friends for many years and would meet up for dinner occasionally, but they won't develop any type of love relationship. Ella is often surrounded by rumors, although she is an artist and the rumors are about her, but often times it affects friends as well. This time, the report was completely false, it has impacted her image greatly. She plans to pay a visit to the law firm for assistance on requesting the Media to clarify these false rumors.

In the report, it said that the Millionaire friend gave her a new car as a gift? Ella said that the new car is paid on her own expensive and she still needs to pay monthly. Ella has been in the business for so many years, she still has the ability to buy her own car, had always worked hard on her jobs, buying a car to award herself is not something strange. But unfortunately, just buying a new car for herself could lead to so much gossip.

Ella and Ron Ng are an old rumored couple, earlier Ella revealed that 2 years ago she broke up with her boyfriend because he had a flowery heart. She said that she once bumped into him and another girl together, like catching them having an affair. But Ella said that it only feels like she "caught them having an affair", it does not mean it is the truth. Did this cause others to wrongly assume that the boyfriend was rumored boyfriend Ron? She looked reluctant to answer, Ella expressed that she will not announce what his name is because the incident is the past, don't want to mention it again.

Although Fiona was not nominated for the musical "Last Smile, First Tear", she and Joey Leung played last year, her colleague in the same musical was nominated and she is very happy for her. Speaking about the "Swine Flu", Fiona said she will be going to America to work in the near future. Her mother reminded her to be very careful. Fiona said she would be prepared with masks, disinfectant paper tissues and Plenty of Vitamin C tablets. There is only one person she is worried about and that is her grandmother who lives in Vancouver. Since she lives in a nursing home, and has limited mobility, there is little chance of her going out to crowded places to catch the infection.

Angela Tong appeared in a play "Watcher" recently, she revealed that she is very interested to perform in theatre. She was very impressed with Simon Lo, who directed and also acted in the play. Angela saw how hard he had worked and she really appreciated the chance to perform in the play. She stressed that from now on, she will not give out any concessionary theatre tickets. Instead, she would ask her friends to buy their own. Angela also disclosed that she didn't ask Chin Ka Lok to come and support her because she was worried that she would be very nervous when she saw him in the audience. However, she did invite her friends Timmy Hung and Margaret Chung to support her at the last performance.

Hin is planning for a comedy musical next year. Eric Suen was interested to be involved in this play, but the company rejected Hin's offer because the fee is not satisfactory and also time consuming. Hins said he hasn't contacted Kelvin Kwan, who was involved in a drug charges with Jill Vidal, for a while. He is hoping they can get together to have dinner in the near future. He knows Kelvin has been busy writing songs and reckoned sooner or later, Kelvin could be a better song writer than him. Speaking about Kelvin having constant contact with Jill through the webcam, Hins asked people not to speculate. In fact, Kelvin is staying at home to punish himself. Eric expressed that he doesn't need to stay at home as a punishment, there are other ways too. He didn't know if Kelvin had cried or not, but he believes when you are in trouble, you soon find out how who your real friends are. He respects both of them and hopes things will get forgotten in time.

Jamie Chik Mei Chun and Ray Lui Leung Wai were filming an outdoor scene for “Born Rich” 《富貴門》. Despite an third party involvement in their marriage, Jamie and Ray mended their relationship. The pair strolled in the park to reflect upon their marriage. The pair gave professional performances and the scene was completed in one take. The cast and crew were able to get off work early.

Absent from the entertainment industry for many years, Jamie admitted that she had to make an adjustment during initial filming of “Born Rich.” Fortunately, Jamie’s husband, Michael Miu Kiu Wai provided encouragement and she was able to adjust quickly.

Earlier, there were rumors that Jamie and Ray refused to accept last minute filming notices. Jamie denied the rumors. “The schedule for filming ‘Born Rich’ has not been that difficult. Due to the large cast, the filming is spread evenly. There is not much need for last minute filming notices. In the past, when I was filming ‘The Smiling Proud Wanderer,’ and another 60 episode series, the filming requirements were a lot more strenuous. Physically, it was difficult to cope with.”
