In these two years, Bernice Liu has gained a new image of a fighting girl, yesterday she was in Mainland shooting for a new action film, in a scene where she has to use all her power to kick the Mainland martial arts actress. The Director strongly pursues many NGs for a perfect scene, Bernice laughed: "Hitting someone and avoiding hits are both so hard to do!"

The other day, Bernice and Mainland martial arts actress, Luxia Jiang was filming for a new action film (滅門), the scene talked about Bernice attacked by the Mainland actress, but Bernice was quick and kicked her away immediately.

Director wants perfection

It was seen that Bernice and the Mainland actress were quite compatible, but the Director was not satisfied, seems like the Director wanted perfection, making them NG more than 10 times. The Mainland actress also had to suffer from Bernice's kicks more than 10 times.

Bernice expressed that her role requires a harsh portrayal, so for every action move, she will have to use greater strength. She expressed: "Using strength like this, no matter if your hitting someone or avoiding someone's hits, it is very hard to do, so every time we finish the scene, I always ask my partner if she's okay. I was also wearing high heels, when I kick out to her, I could see her in pain." Bernice continues and expressed that she won't be trying to develop a fighting girl image, hopefully she could try other types of roles.

Being harshly kicked by Bernice, the Mainland actress expressed: "When she kicked me, it did not feel right, so my chest area was swelling up, but for filming, its hard to avoid."

“As for my husband’s [infidelity], I have already committed the same wrong-doing a lot of times in the past. Please don’t tell my husband about my relationship with XXX.” – The female voice was found to resemble Kenix Kwok, confiding in Wang T.C. Chang in a private phone recording.

****

Last Thursday, on May 28th, Sudden Weekly received a shocking voice recording which alluded to Frankie Lam Man Lung having an affair with mainland actress, Vicky Dong. In the voice recording, a male voice resembling Frankie’s admitted to the affair and threatened suicide, while pleading with Kenix’s mainland representative, Wang T.C. Chang, to help him in the matter. In the tape, Frankie alluded that Kenix was 3 months pregnant. In another sound clip, a voice resembling Kenix’s said that she will not forgive Frankie that easily.

In response to the tabloid rumors, Kenix and Frankie held a press conference on May 30th. The couple said that their marriage was stable and denied that Vicky Dong was a third party. Kenix and Frankie did not allow the media to ask any questions at the press conference. The couple did not say whether they were the speakers featured in the voice clips. They also did not address the infidelity rumors directly. Kenix clarified that T.C. Chang was not her mainland manager, who has also tried to blackmail the couple. The blackmail case has been filed with authorities in China and Hong Kong and T.C. Chang is currently under investigation.

In the CD-ROM that Sudden Weekly received last week, another scandalous conversation clip was included. A female voice resembling Kenix Kwok admitted that she had cheated on her husband [Frankie] with a well-known male singer, who was also married. Although rumors surfaced earlier that Frankie had cheated in their marriage, perhaps Kenix may have done the same!

K= Voice resembling Kenix Kwok
T= Voice resembling T.C. Chang

K: “My husband [Frankie Lam] realized his mistake was appalling, thus he can not even forgive himself now.”

T: “Ho Ying, you really should forgive this kind of thing [infidelity]. I hope you don’t mind me saying this. A mainland actor, Wong YY told me that you were involved with XXX [insert famous Hong Kong male singer’s name, who is also married]. You also cheated in the relationship and even earlier than Frankie!”

K: “I also questioned myself. I had also committed Man Lung’s mistake many times in the past. However, people are selfish. Please don’t tell Frankie about my relationship with XXX.”

T: “No, of course not, I didn’t.”

From the sound clips, it can be deduced that the woman resembling Kenix Kwok’s voice had cheated on her husband numerous times. However, she did not say when she was involved with the singer mentioned in the recording, or whether the affair was still on-going.

[Although Sudden Weekly did not print the full name of the male singer, the tabloid] hinted that he is a married man with a child [or children]. The man had a tumultuous career, but he is currently an extremely popular singer in the music industry.

Hacken Lee Refused to Comfort Kenix

Once romantically linked with Kenix, Hacken Lee was contacted by Sudden Weekly on June 1st, when Frankie’s infidelity rumors first broke. At the time Hacken said he will not console Kenix, "This is another couple’s business, it is inappropriate for me to comment.”

On June 2nd, Sudden Weekly waited outside Hacken’s home and wanted to ask him about the voice clip in which Kenix admitted she was involved with a Hong Kong singer. Hacken returned home in his agent’s car and upon spotting reporters, immediately rolled up the [car] curtains. The vehicle disappeared inside the building garage.

Aside from being friendly with Hacken, Kenix was also good friends with Alan Tam Wing Lun. In her personal blog, Kenix said that both Alan and herself were "food incinerators." Kenix posted a photo of herself, where she was seen eating a crab feast while wearing a bathrobe in a hotel room.

Married Male Singers Refuse to Comment

Kenix and Frankie have been married for 5 years, in which multiple infidelity rumors persisted over the years. Kenix often had rumors with her co-stars, such as Michael Tao Dai Yu, Joe Ma Tak Chung, and Chilam Cheung. One of the more recent rumors circulated in 2006, which alluded that Kenix had been secretly involved with Hacken Lee for the past 4 years.

Each time these type of rumors circulated, Kenix and Frankie would make a joint public appearance to deny them. Regarding Frankie’s affair with Vicky Dong, allegedly Frankie intended to admit the affair at the press conference. However, Kenix did not want Frankie to acknowledge the affair and thus the couple reportedly had an intensive argument the night before.

Regarding Kenix’s alleged involvement with a Hong Kong singer, reporters contacted Eason Chan. Eason’s manager, Chan Ka Ying, said, "There is no contact between Eason and Kenix. Eason only knows Kenix as a TVB actress. Also there is a big age difference between them; there are no feelings between them. It is just impossible!” Sudden Weekly also tried to contact Jacky Cheung Hok Yau, Alan Tam Wing Lun, Hacken Lee and Chilam Cheung without any success.

On May 14th, T.C. Wang wrote on her blog about a Hong Kong celebrity couple “L” and “K”, who appeared to have a good marriage. However, husband L flirted with many co-stars around him. While filming “Virtues of Harmony,” L was involved with actress C. During the filming of “Armed Reaction,” L flirted with actress A. However, L’s wife, K was also involved with other men. Before T.C. Wang could elaborate further on her blog site, she was interrogated by mainland authorities.

Radio Host Reveals Steamy Details between "K" and "C"

On June 2nd, an online radio program, 「 潮 頻 道 」 hosted by Lee Si Pei and Yan Suk Ming (a managed artist under T.C. Wang) revealed that while filming in China in 2007, a Hong Kong actress, “K” and actor “C” re-lit their old romantic sparks. C’s wife was pregnant at the time and requested time-off to accompany his wife during delivery. However, K requested C to remain in China to stay with her instead.

Below is an excerpt of Lee Si Pei and Yan Suk Ming’s program.

Lee= Lee Si Pei
Yan= Yan Suk Ming

Yan: Recently, a production crew member called me to share an interesting incident. While filming in 2007, K and C (well known actresses and actor) were cast as leads in the mainland series. C was K’s ex-lover.

Lee: Is C single or married?

Yan: C is married and his wife also works in the entertainment industry, who is very famous.

Lee: Where was this series filmed?

Yan: In mainland. The problem was that C’s wife was pregnant at the time and he had to return to Hong Kong to accompany the baby’s delivery. However, K insisted that C stay with her in mainland. Of course, C made the right decision and decided to return to Hong Kong to be with his wife. K over-estimated her own attraction and her emotions took a bad turn, impacting the entire crew. After filming ending, K and C only attended a press conference once and did not promote the series further.

Aside from revealing the gossip about C and K, Yan Suk Ming also advocated for T.C. Chang. "I am sure that T.C. Chang is not Kenix Kwok’s intermediary (indicating that T.C. Chang was Kenix’s manager instead). However, only the involved parties know all the details. Last year, China had the earthquake in Sichuan, hosted the Olympics and the Paralympics, thus a lot of the entertainment shows and projects were halted. However, my company [with the assistance of T.C. Chang] negotiated a project for Kenix Kwok. Another time, my company received a bid to have Kenix appear at a show. However the venue turned out to be a nightclub, which was different than the previously discussed details. To protect Kenix, our company did not let her perform. The sponsor got angry and hired some men to threaten us. T. C. Chang found some people to help settle the matter immediately. She is a responsible person and treats the artists very well. Therefore, the current [blackmail] allegations against her are very surprising."

A Case of Blackmail?

However, there were other reports that indicated T.C. Chang manipulated Frankie’s affair with Vicky Dong to blackmail Frankie and Kenix. Apparently, in early 2009, Kenix discovered that T.C. Chang was dishonest and decided to distance their relationship. Realizing Kenix’s intention, T.C. Chang told Frankie that she possessed photographs of Frankie and Vicky Dong together. Allegedly, T.C. Chang also recorded the various conversation clips to blackmail Frankie and Kenix. T.C. Chang demanded tens of thousands of dollars initially, with the total amount nearly a million (HKD). Finally, Frankie and Kenix decided to report the blackmail case and let the mainland and Hong Kong authorities investigate the matter.

Sudden Weekly tried to contact T. C. Chang on June 3rd, but her calls have been disabled. Also Frankie and Kenix’s phone numbers were directly routed to their voice mail.

Frankie’s admission in the conversation clips that he had an affair with Vicky Dong sparked a frenzied discussion on many online forums. Many netizens scolded Frankie and felt sorry for Kenix. There were others that felt it was inappropriate for outside parties to comment on Frankie and Kenix’s marital affairs.

Vicky Dong Revealed Affair with Frankie for a Reason

Why did Vicky Dong admit to T.C. Chang that she had an affair with Frankie Lam? According to one of the telephone recordings, Vicky apparently thought Frankie ended their relationship due to a new love interest in Hangzhou. Vicky was riled and thus she told T.C. Chang of her involvement with Frankie, hoping to seek revenge.

In a recording resembling Frankie’s voice: “Ho Ying said that I have another girlfriend in Hangzhou??”

T.C. Chang: “Oh! Vicky told me that. I asked Vicky why did both of you end your relationship? She said, ‘I realized Frankie had another woman in Hangzhou. Thus I broke up with him and became very unhappy.’”

Frankie: “I told you that I do not have a girlfriend in Hangzhou. Vicky is a very sensitive person. When I said I wanted to break up with her, she thought I had a girlfriend in Hangzhou. She harbored a grudge in her heart until this day.”

Since Frankie and Vicky’s relationship was revealed, Vicky has returned to China. In a recent blog entry, she said that while filming with Frankie, they got along as family members. She saw him as a mentor and denied that she was a third party. Subsequently, some netizens have shown their support while others left angry messages in her guestbook.

Addendum

Yan Suk Ming gossiped on her radio program about Hong Kong actress and actor, K and C, re-kindling their old romantic sparks while filming in China in 2007. Sudden Weekly researched the Hong Kong actors who filmed in China in 2007 and discovered the following:

Chilam Cheung and Kenix Kwok 《 紅 粉 》

In 2006, Chilam revealed that he and Anita Yuen Wing Yee got married overseas. Chilam and Anita have a good marriage and are often photographed going out or shopping together. Chilam and Kenix filmed 《 紅 粉 》in China in 2007 together.

Edison Chen, who has been emphasizing that he’s not intending to appear in the Hong Kong entertainment circle for a period of time, has been positively involved in the clothing business recently, and has been secretly planning to develop his business to Beijing and Malaysia to open new stores to expand the clothing empire. Unfortunately, his wishful thinking might not be realized smoothly. After the news of his store opening is known to the public to open on July 20 in Malaysia, the news has been received with disgusts, as many of local people report their disgusts at the news to the embassy, and they hope that their outcries will be heard, thus stopping Edison to open his store in Malaysia.

Edison’s CLOT clothing brand manager said that on July 20 (Saturday) Edison's clothing store called JUICE, will enter the Malaysian market and will have an opening ceremony in Kuala Lumpur. His family will also attend the occasion to congratulate his business expansion toward Malaysia.

JUICE will enter the Malaysian market next Saturday

A few days ago, Edison went to Hong Kong and stayed there for 11 days to make preparations for his business. He was friendly when he was interviewed by the HK media, as he was devoted to change his negative image. When he was interviewed by CNN, he clarified that he will not be in the HK entertainment circle “indefinitely”, instead of forever. This also has attracted some criticism; he couldn’t help but had to emphasize it again to the HK media before he was leaving, that he would not appear in the HK entertainment showbiz for a period of time.

Although he has been trying to change his negative image, it is still hard to get an acceptance from the public. Especially the Malaysians who are rather conservative, as some of the people couldn’t accept his store opening, and also there are some conservative religious groups who also expressed their rejection toward this matter. Recently, there have been many people who go to the embassy to file their complaints about this, and it is very obvious that Edison's not welcomed, as the people hope they can use the pressure of the public opinion to stop his store opening.

The Vigorous Decorating Process

In spite of the objection from the public, Edison’s store must open. His boutique is located in a quite liberal area, in the Bangsar Business District. Up to this moment, the store decorating process has been vigorous, as it could be seen around 10 people working the inside the store fixing up the display cabinets. The store’s theme color is gray. The 2 stories store has a storage room and an office, which are quite spacious. Outside, there’s a black banner with the red words JUICE written on it, so people will know that Edison’s store will be opening soon.

Hosting the opening ceremony personally

Edison’s store in Malaysia is his second overseas store, the first one is in Shanghai. Before he left HK the other day, he proudly announced his store opening news, and he will host the ceremony personally. This already is one of the most effective advertisements.

On the ceremonial day, besides Edison, there will also be 3 other important persons attending the event. Edison's partner, Kevin Poon, Edison's Malaysian cooperator, Edwin Choong and Sam Lee. There will be a lion dance group performance as well, as a good symbol to aim for a prosperous business. DJ Be Careful AKA Sam Lee will DJ in the evening party.

Isabella Leong has just given birth to the Hong Kong's richest man's son, Ethan Li. The media has been competing to interview them, and Richard has spoken that he won't involve a lot of people to throw a lavish party, and he will bring his son Li Chang Zhi home to Hong Kong for his family to see in the end of July.

Isabella won't throw a lavish birthday party

Isabella Leong will turn 21 on June 23, and Chang Zhi will be 2 months old on June 26. There are some rumors saying that Richard will throw an extravagant party by picking up his guests by private plane to San Francisco, where the party will be held. Richard denied that he doesn't have that kind of plan.

Isabella's spokeperson, Lu Mi Xue revealed that Richard is a humble and natural person, he never does things in an exagerrated manner. About Isabella's coming home plan, Lu Mi Xue said that the plan would be they all will come back to Hong Kong in the end of July. But she still cannot confirm it, as there might be some changes because Chang Zhi is still a small baby, and everyone has to prioritize his health and safety.

Lu Mi Xue also revealed that on May 25 last month, Richard took his son's one-month-old picture. There was also Isabella in the pic, showing her smiling face while holding and looking at her baby, expressing an indescribable happiness. Lu Mi Xue expressed, "Their motive when making the birth of their son news public is for the sake of sharing happiness with everyone, please don't make random guesses. Isabella is enjoying her time taking care of her son, she's busy, she wouldn't have any time to throw a lavish birthday bash. The family only plans to eat together, celebrating her birthday peacefully, and that already makes them happy."

Will not involve lots of people to throw a party

It is reported that Richard and Isabella are humble and no frills persons. They only invite some of their good friends to eat while celebrating their son's 1 month birthday. How come would there be an airplane picking up guests, involving many people just to throw a party? Richard is also known as (小小超,xiao xiao chao), little superhuman, while his son would be called (迷你超, mi ni chao), mini superhuman, because his father and grandfather, Li Jia Cheng, are wealthy businessmen, thus the nearly 2-months-old baby's worth is calculated to be almost HKD$60,000,000,000.

Raymond Wong and his wife

Raymond Wong and his wife have been married for many years and still very loving. The reporters often see them together shopping in busy markets. The other day around 5pm Raymond, his wife and a female friend appeared in Causeway Bay. Raymond wore a cap and often ducked his head down. He appeared to be very low profile. It wasn't clear if he was afraid of reporters following him that he distanced himself from his wife. Due to the hot weather the 3 of them entered a convenience store to cool down and bought cold drinks. The couple had plenty of chemistry even without saying a word. Afterwards the 3 of them left the premises. TVB is currently airing "The Sweetness in the Salt" and the whole crew are feeling tension over the ratings. Raymond's role will have a sudden death towards the end but hopes that the series will become a hit so that his role can be "reborn".

When discussing about her role as Jessica, Ada said "I put in a lot of hardwork playing this role. I feel this is my best performance to date. It is a big role and my favorite. I really like this role because it is different from characters I have played in the past. Jessica is a very selfish and scheming person yet still has a human touch. The role was very difficult to play and challenging. While shooting the series I fell in love with the role. The character isn't pleasing but Jessica really knows what she wants and hates in life".

Michael Tse was invited by Raymond Lam to appear as guest in his "Let's get Wet " concert on 17th and 18th of June in The Hong Kong Coliseum. They were having their rehearsal yesterday. Reporter asked Raymond how was the ticket sale doing? Raymond said all tickets were sold out, his friends and family have all bought tickets to support him. Asked if he had got rid of the front seats usually reserved for him to shake hands with the audience? Raymond said it is not true, in fact the stage has three dimensions. They made a long bridge extended from the stage to reach out to the first 15 rows. That way, he can be close to the audience and he can shake hands with them more easily. In the corner of the stage, there is a fountain which is insured by the company. The reporter asked if he is worried about getting scratched by his audience, Raymond smiled and said "I am very clumsy myself, I am worried I may trip over." The reporter went on to ask if he is nervous as the concert is drawing close? Raymond replied "I was nervous long time ago, but now, I just want to do the best I can. I hope everyone enjoys themselves when they come in." Raymond stressed that he is showing his singing talent, not his muscle."

During rehearsal the other night, Raymond said it is Michael who is leading him. Michael was very modest, saying "How can I lead him? He has learned it all." Michael will appear as guest in his concert on both nights. He will sing and dance with Raymond as well as singing a solo. Michael revealed that he just tried on his dancing costume and they really fitted him well. Reporter asked if they were sexy outfit, he smiled "Raymond promised he will wear a T-Back. I won't put on a T-Back, but I am not far from that, and it is a tight fit. If I had eaten more, there might be an accident." Michael disclosed that Raymond is much fitter now, yet he himself has to reduce his tummy fat. Speaking about his role as "Laughing Gor" that made him very hot these days, is he worried that he may steal all the limelight in Raymond's concert?

Bosco Wong, Cecilia Yip, Toby Leung and other TVB artistes attended the Shanghai Television Festival yesterday to promote new series "摘星之旅" (Growing Through Life). It is also Bosco's first time playing a villain. He feels that it was a very challenging role.

Cecilia Yip and Damian Lau play a wealthy couple in the series. Toby and Bosco plays Cecilia's daughter and son in law. Cecilia stated that she has always wanted to work with Damian and her wish finally came true. Due to Raymond Lam holding his concert he wasn't able to attend the promotions. But Bosco still received a lot of warm support from the fans. He excitedly said "This time I play a villain and I had fun playing it. I could portray the role however I wanted. I could use many expressions I wasn't allowed to use in the past". When discussing about his love life, he stated that work his his first priority. Also you need to spend a lot of money for marriage.

Today Myolie Wu appeared in Guangdong's Panlonxia tourist area to shoot a food programme. She was accompanied by Tracy Ip, Yoyo Chen and Timmy Hung. The shooting was scheduled to start in the afternoon. Tracy and Timmy arrived at the location on time but Myolie was yet to appear. The crew waited patiently while Timmy and Tracy took pictures with the tourists to pass time. After half a hour Myolie finally arrived. But she refused to take pictures with the tourists and requested to clear the area. It clearly showed her TVB Fa Dan status. Also the reporters noticed a "Village version" of Myolie, a girl who resembled her was at the same location particpating in the Panlonxia Lavender Guardian Angel recruitment.

The other day Steven Ma was busy shooting TVB series "The Legend of Pu Songling". During the scene he was lying on a bed which had a 7 star candle lamp above his head. The candle wax suddenly dripped on to his right eye. Fortunately he had his eyes closed at the time and it only injured his eye lid. However due to the pain he immediately jumped up from the bed. He stated that his right eye is trouble because a few year ago he injured the same eye while shooting another series. He laughed and said since injuring his eye he was awarded the "My Favourite Male Character Role" award. The reporter asked if the new injury was a hint that he would be receiving an upcoming award? He laughed again and replied "It would be terrible if I had to go blind or injure myself in order to receive an award".

Michael Tse's new movie "Laughing Gor之變節" has finally started shooting. In order for the movie to be aired during the summer and golden period, Michael started to shoot scenes in hot weather. He jumped across canopies and rooftops of old tenement houses in Sham Sui Po to fight with his enemies.

On the day of the shooting the weather was very hot, although it rained occasionally the atmosphere was similar to a steamer. Michael was required to wear a jacket and had many fighting scenes. He laughed and said he had lost 2 pounds from sweating. As to whether he could cope with a large number of fighting scenes, he appeared to be very confident. He said "As well as jumping on rooftops, I will even jump across a canopy that is of long distance. We have planned the distance and I should be able to cope. My wife feels assured because there are many professional stuntmen around. I hope to perform all the dangerous action moves myself. I don't want to use a substitute as I would like the scenes to look realistic. A stuntment accidentally twisted his ankle earlier, I hope he is Okay. I have done a lot of preparations and trust Chin Ka Lok who is my action director. Although Director Herman Yau has high expectations the whole cast can handle it. I am satisfied with my own action moves".

TVB "Mr. Hong Kong 2009" held its first round of interviews yesterday. The quality seems obviously better than Miss Hong Kong. There are 40+ contestants that entered for the pageant, some were muscular and some were not so great looking, it was a pleasant surprise. Among them, one of them was "pack man", his first pose in front of the camera was a 180 degrees twist down to his butt. "Stage Ah Wong" did not dare to try something like that, he only did a few dance moves. "Big Feet Jacky Ng" and "Big Chest King Kong" intentionally revealed their muscular arms. "HK version of Lollipop", "wooden version of William" and "Fake Joe Ma" had appearances that looked like celebrities, taking advantage of the opportunity to enter the entertainment circle.

This year's "Mr. Hong Kong" is quite amazing. The first round of interviews were held yesterday and had won applause, a pleasant surprise. One of the contestants, "flexible man" was one of the best, asked if he has any killer moves? He immediately did a 180 degree twist down to his butt pose once the camera flashed. "Stage Ah Wong" temporarily had Aaron Kwok run in his body as he automatically did dance moves.

Contestants ranges from 17 to 30+ years old

Producer Ho Siu Wai accepted an interview during the auditions, she revealed that the contestsants' ages averages around 17 years old to 30+ years old. This time the interviews are based on self-introducing and talent performances. The contestants had to tell why they are participating and their background. After the Miss Hong Kong complaint, will the judges be extra careful during the interview? Ho Siu Wai said: "We told the contestants to introduce themselves and then we asked questions, it has always been like that, nothing special." Was there many who had tattoos? "Haven't seen any so far because we only saw a few of them. If it affects television, they will not be able to make it to the next round." Is there anyone who performed anything special? "There are many surprises, but other factors like looks also need to be average." Are there many contestants from overseas? "I'm not sure, last week we saw the clips, someone might have to quit their jobs to participate in the pageant."

Bernice Liu and Janice Vidal originally were spokesperson for the same slimming company, but not sure if its because of Janice's sister Jill's negative news earlier that affected her, she suddenly lost her chance to be the spokesperson of one of the largest slimming company in China. The opportunity landed on Bernice Liu, yesterday she was doing a photo shoot for the new set of Ads for the company, showing off her long legs!

Earlier Bernice was rumored that TVB froze her, but the rumors were thawed. These gossips did not affect her popularity. Recently Bernice signed an one year contract with the slimming company to be their spokesperson, she successfully became the other spokesperson for the company in place of Janice.

Surviving for 9 hours

The day before yesterday, Bernice was doing a photo shoot for the new set of Ads, to show her appreciation to the company, during the shoot, she put in a lot of effort into doing the poses. Besides showing off her beautiful long legs, she also had a great body figure. Once she started filming, it took 9 hours straight, quite difficult, but Bernice said that looking at the results, it is all worth it.

Asked if she beat Janice in becoming the spokesperson? Bernice said: "It cannot be said like that, we are both spokespersons, it's promotion! Don't say who beat who!" As for Bernice's image, is it healthier than Janice's? She frankly said that it cannot be compared because they both are responsible for different things and said that her responsibility is only to be the spokesperson for the company.
