The fans then shouted: "Joey Yung", but Denise didn't hear it and revealed that the idol she was reminded of was Aaron Kwok.

Recently she suffered in pain from losing two cats. Near the end of the concert, Denise wanted to express her feelings: "In the last half year, I left HK for a moment and went to find a new start for myself. When there are down times, I would feel I am loved from my surroundings, gives me some strength to move on and know that I have lost somethings." At this point, Denise started have sobs in her voice: "Facing lost, what to do? Be unhappy? Grief? Or move forward? This is a class one must certainly have in life. I hope that my experiences can enter my songs, when one is unhappy strength can be given to them." After the show, Denise went on with an Encore and often anxiously looked at the time to avoid having to pay extra fees to the venue. Asked why Joey didn't come support her? She said: "I think she's not in HK."

When she thought about her cats that passed away on stage, Denise wanted to cry, she was helpless that she was so busy she didn't even have time to grief. She said: "The night before was difficult, when GUTGUT left, there was a lot of things that needed to be done. Had to calmly get through the period.

Is the photo scandal still affecting the singer?

Edison Chen is officially back to the showbiz and his new album "CONFUSION" is releasing in December 30. Yesterday the singer attended to an opening ceremony event as guest and promoted his new album. He rapped 2 songs but the audience was not too ethusiastic; only Edison's good friends cheered for him.

There are 15 songs in the singer's new album and they are about his experiences from the past 2 years. The only Cantonese song "Reboot" talks about starting over again and "Salute" is inspired by the aftermath of his explicit photos scandal. He said he wants to salute to people who support and did not support him over these 2 years because they gave him strength to do well.

Edison admits he is nervous about his official comeback: "I'm afraid I can't rap anymore. I'm not that worried facing several thousands people in Shanghai. But it's Hong Kong here, but after today I have nothing to worry about."

Since their pleasant reunion at Kiki Sheung’s wedding several months ago (where they generously posed for pictures together), Carina Lau (Tony Leung’s wife) and Margie Tsang (Tony’s ex-girlfriend) got together once again, but this time, for work-related reasons.

As promotion for her film "Let the Bullets Fly", Carina accepted an interview with Margie as host in a special program called "Carina and Margie: Secret Talks in the Chamber". Last night, the short promo clip for the program was released and in reviewing it, both Carina and Margie had great chemistry. In this ‘historic’ interview, Margie and Carina talk candidly about both film and personal life -- in the clip that was released, it showed Margie asking Carina 3 very direct, personal questions (in one of the questions, Margied revealed that Tony gets jealous easily).

From the clip:

The first question that Margie asked Carina: “You have a lot of very intimate scenes in your new film. Tony gets jealous easily, so are you afraid [that he won’t like it]?”

Second question: “What do you think about Tony and Tang Wei’s very daring sex scene in "Lust, Caution"?

In the third question, Margie even brings up Tony’s ‘rumored’ girlfriend Maggie Cheung Man Yuk: “Would you collaborate [in a film] with Maggie?”

The clip did not show what Carina’s responses were to these questions.

According to reports, prior to the interview, both Carina and Margie put 100% effort into preparing for the interview. Margie even pro-actively asked Carina whether she wanted the interview to focus more on the film rather than her personal life – after the 2 of them stood to the side and quietly discussed it for a bit, it was decided that 40% of the interview would focus on the film and the remaining 60% would be about personal life. During the filming of the program, there were no ill feelings at all – in fact, the ladies chatted about almost everything like good friends do. The atmosphere during filming was excellent.

Raymond Wong and Natalie Tong won the "Most Improved Artist" awards together. Soon to be father, Raymond frankly said that he satisfied with his current status, and won't deliberately ask for a pay increase for milk. Natalie said winning an award is a type of certainty, and will patiently wait for others to give her a pay increase.

Many TVB FaDans and Siu Sangs gain popularity and start getting promoted after winning the "Most Improved Artist" award. Raymond modestly said that he was very lucky this time to win the award: "Coincidentally I had series with good public praises this year, many people watched and in fact the award is not a certainty in my acting." Jumped into the TV industry from film industry, Raymond frankly said for the time being he will only be focusing on shooting TV series, set a good foundation first. Soon, he will be shooting a pre-modern series, playing a half good half evil role.

Natalie felt that winning the award is a type of shock, and it is like receiving an 'A' on her personal report card on her TV acting career: "Getting good grades then should do even better later, there is no reason to stop and reward yourself just because of an award. So I won't take the initiative to ask for a pay increase." She is currently shooting a Qing dynasty series, and this is her first time playing a sour character. Natalie is grateful of TVB giving her so many opportunities to portray different roles: "This is also my first time shooting a Qing dynasty series, so I will go watch more costume dramas to learn from them and how they speak their lines."

The Last Goal

When asked if 'Best Actor & Actress' is their last goal? Raymond said that it is most important to be happy with your job: "My goal is to enjoy the acting process, if I am not enjoying myself, then how can audience enjoy my acting?" Natalie smiled and said that her goal is to make extra income in Mainland: "The series I'm in are rarely shown in Mainland, so I hope to be in several different types of series, increasing the amount of people in Mainland that knows my name and earn more money to help buy a property for my family!" Her current wish is to own a home that is "already paid off".

William Chan and Sherman Chung celebrated Christmas by enjoying a Christmas couple meal together. Regarding the rumours that said Sherman was replacing Charlene (Ah Sa) and became "love replacement", she frankly said that she really wants to date, but unfortunately there are no pursuers. However, William hinted that Sherman is "Hot-Pick Goddess".

Because William has got work to do, he will not be able to celebrate his first Christmas with Ah Sa after the announcement of their relationship. Nevertheless, he does not feel lonely because his family has already made arrangements with him to open Christmas party: "I have party at home every year, I have already ordered the turkey." (What about Ah Sa?) "No time, she has to work." Sherman on the other hand will be celebrating Christmas in church. She was asked if she hopes to have a boyfriend to accompany? " She said: "I want too. But no one is pursuing me, very "dry"". William who sat beside was making eye signals, looked like he was hinting, and finally he couldn't resist and exposed：" Sherman is many people's goddess."

When asked whether the two of them would cook a big Christmas meal? Sherman who calls herself "Beautiful Chef" said that cooking a Christmas meal for 20 persons is not a problem for her at all.

Sherman also revealed that when she was studying abroad, she always invited her friends over to celebrate Christmas, the most unforgettable time was: "Because there were many male classmates, I'm afraid they wouldn't be full, so I made a very big German sausage, I didn't want to waste food, so I forced them to finish it, after they finished it they said they have phobia towards sausages."
William is the "prince" in his family, so he probably seldom cooks. He was said to be not romantic enough, he answered back, "Calling for delivery is romantic too." He is only 25 years old, and he has tried cooking, just that the food taster commented that his food tasted bad. He was asked if he would cook a simple one for Ah Sa? He felt that he could try it out, just that it might be "dangerous", he also praised that Ah Sa can cook: "Her claypot rice is very nice, it's true, I'm not lying."
