Mavis Pan Exposes Juicy Details of Her Relationship With Raymond Lam
The guy's done saying things, now it's the girl's turn.
Still remember the hot photos leak of Raymond Lam from last month? The incident continues as the girl in the matter, Mavis Pan Shuang Shuang, is telling more about her relationship with her TVB actor.
When they were together, the couple couldn't go out too often and they stayed at Raymond's house most of the time. Their first date is on the bed, yes, Raymond's bed!
"We couldn't go to public places for sure. So our first date was at his place. We talked the whole night on the bed. Then we held each other and fell asleep. This made me feel he is not particularly perverted."
Having a hot body (36D bust), most people would think she and Raymond would engage in intimate activity often, but she denied.
"In fact he got very tired from work already. You don't need that every time. Although that's part of a relationship, but it's not everything. Sometimes I would massage him. I won't do those purposely. I like to have it planned. When we were together, we hugged most of the time. I don't think he dated me for that. If so, he could've just go for a prostitute."
Others have accused Mavis' 36D bust is not natural, hinting breast implants. But Raymond actually assured his ex girlfriend on that.
"He would tell me sweetly, 'There are no girls like you.' I said, 'Everyone said I got plastic surgery.' He would say, 'I know the fact, and it's good enough. There is no need to care much.'"
Pressure from family and work caused this relationship to fall apart. Mavis expressed Raymond's dad dislikes his son is dating her.
"In general, I would come to visit him when I have time. When I was there, his dad said, 'You are here again?' He also needed me to follow three rules: we can't talk on the phone for more than 15 minutes, can only see each other once every 3 months, and we cannot be photographed by reporters, otherwise it's over."
Raymond himself said he broke up with Mavis for 2 months already, but Mavis doesn't agree on that.
"He didn't find me or reply my messages. He never say 'let's break up' to me. He always called me 'wifey wifey' in text messages. I was a little happy when he confirmed our relationship, but very upset that he said we are over already. Because in my heart, I never thought it's over."

Raymond Lam Goes In-Depth On Previous Relationship
Raymond Lam has been replying reporters' questions related to his bed photos leak lately. Here he discloses the inside story of his relationship with former girlfriend Pan Shuang Shuang.
The only girlfriend Raymond ever admitted is Rain Li back in 2001. Now 10 years have passed, a set of photos taken on the bed when he was with his ex are leaked and he never imagined he would have to confirm who he dated this way. This is the biggest difficulty he ever faced in the showbiz. But he feels blessed from receiving support from others.
"I get upset every time reading related reports. But I feel blessed. Many friends, including colleagues who I'm not close with sent SMS to me, leaving me encouraging messages. I feel better when I got a message from my dad. Family is number one to me."
Raymond met Pan on the set of movie "The Emerald and the Pearl" last year. They finally got together sometime after they were done filming. But because of their busy work schedule plus personality difference, the relationship ended shortly in January this year. Although it was only a short one, but Raymond was actually serious about her, even brought her to see his parents.
"Although I didn't know what would happen between us, but I wanted to develop a good relationship. My parents' impression on her? It was okay in the beginning. But because I would be affected by my partner easily, when I was in relationship with her, I wasn't focused enough at work. Like after I worked the entire day, when we were on the phone, she might not be happy. If her attitudes or emotions are a little different, I would feel down, my mood would be affected. People around me know. My parents would say things about it. But it's my problem that I can't balance my relationship and work."
Although the relationship ended shortly, but Raymond expressed he won't mind dating people in the showbiz. He believes then they could understand and encourage each other. This incident won't leave a bad experience for him when it comes to dating.
"Things are different. I don't feel like I was used. Taking photos...I'm those who rarely take photos even with friends. But she loves taking photos, I don't mind, I just didn't know...She did send SMS to me after the report came out. But I don't want to talk about it."
He might be used this time, but Raymond still praises Pan a good girl.
"I didn't give her a card to buy things. Instead she bought many things for me. She kept buying things for me when she was out. She was very caring. I could hardly take time off to be with her. Many times we could hardly meet up. I have to make a decision, family and career, then love, how should I choose? What is missing? Maybe the right time."
Most people are accusing Pan for leaking these photos on purpose and using Raymond for fame. Pan herself once expressed the photos could be leak when she lost her phone in the hair salon. She has turned off her cellphone and keeps herself quiet these days. Her manager disclosed they are still investigating how the photos leaked, and they have a suspect in mind.
"Shuang Shaung and her assistant had some argument earlier. The assistant knows the password of Shuang Shuang's computer. We are still investigating. Shuang Shuang is very upset. She was supposed to film a movie in early April, but it looks like we would have to see. She doesn't want to speak out right now because we are being bombard."

Sonija Kwok to Wed At the End of the Year
Rumors said Sonija Kwok's action choreographer boyfriend took special care of her, that's how he touched her heart. Then later rumors said the couple is rushing marriage in April because Sonija is pregnant. But none of them are true. Here we have the actress telling the real story herself. One thing we sure is, it's all fated.
It was reported Sonija and her boyfriend Zhu Shaojie's close interaction on the filming set of Mainland drama "Palace" made them become lovers, but actually they weren't too close at work. Sonija's role didn't require that much action scenes; even if she needed assistance, it was Zhu's assistant choreographer who helped out. So how did they really get to know each other?"A few days before we were done filming, someone said he would introduce a guy to me," said Sonija. "I joked, 'Okay! Then ask whether he dares to hold my hand!' Since I'm not young anymore, and has some fame, not many people dared to pursue me."
Sonija didn't know the guy she was being introduced to will become her Mr. Right. Although she was introduced to some people the past years, but none were right matches, which made her well-prepared to become a "remaining woman." But this changed when she met Zhu. She dined with him another day and it was quite embarrassing start.
"We didn't know what to say. We said goodbye after the dinner."
Two days after their first dinner together, Sonija had to return to Hong Kong to film a new drama. Zhu was there at the airport and brought her 100 red roses. Who isn't touched by 100 red roses? Because she couldn't bring the flower bouquet to the plane, she only took one flower out. This was when they decided to give it a try.
However, they were experiencing a distant relationship; she was in Hong Kong and he was in other places. Their only communication was via phone, text messages, and Skype. Although it was like that for more than 3 months, but the relationship still went well.
"We had good communications. It felt right. I like how he is just like me, like to stay at home. Plus we haven't date for several years, and have been waiting for a right match, so we hit it off quickly."
After filming new drama <抉擇男女>, Sonija finally got to enjoy being in love. She is currently on a vacation with Zhu and even decided to become Mrs. Zhu at the end of the year.
"I went to Mainland and met his family. That day he knelt down with a diamond ring and proposed. I was very moved and dropped tears. He is simple, practical, good to his family, and hardworking. I feel very comfortable loving him. I can say what I want to him. This is the simple happiness."
Sonija is planning out her wedding now engaged to Zhu,. It was originally set to be on April, but she doesn't want to prove the media really guessed it right, so she moves it to at the end of this year.
"We would invite close friends and relatives to our wedding. I don't want to make it like a show. Then we would return to Mainland and have dinner with his family."
Sonija will continue her career as an actress. As for having kids, it's a must to the 36-year-old.
"My mom always urges me to have kids. My fiance loves kids, too," she said sweetly. "So it's hard to not right?"
The couple seem to be fated to be together---they actually met each other already in 2000. Sonija was filming "A Step Into the Past" with Louis Koo and Zhu was the stunt double at that time. They even took a photo together as a group. Who knew they would meet again and even decide to be together?Source: Mingpao Weekly / By: KAY @ Kay's Entertainment

Julian Cheung & Myolie Wu Bickers On and Off Screen
It is Julian Cheung (Chilam) and Myolie Wu's first collaboration in TVB series The Rippling Blossom. They play a joyful bickering couple. Unexpectedly, the two not only bickers on-screen, but even continues to off-screen. Chilam said he hopes to be a female role next time and ask Bosco Wong to be the boyfriend. Myolie immediately refuted, she said that she wants to be in a male role to fight with Chilam for Anita Yuen!
Chilam expressed that Rippling is the first series he plays a madly hilarious role. He said: "The role this time is exceptional. Comedies I have done before, but this is the first time that it's madly hilarious. In the series, I'm often day dreaming, there was one scene where we had to wear ancient costumes to do one of my day dreaming scenes. This is something that makes people really happy. Also this is my first time working with Myoile, it was really fun, we discuss and solve problems together." Myolie, who was sitting besides him immediately complained, she joked that there was basically no discussing leeway at all. She said: "He has too many sudden and unexpected hilarious moments that I couldn't resist. I was surprised on how rich his comedic skills were. He reacts fast, and usually I can't keep up with him. During our collaboration, I have always thought Chilam was just pretending to be a serious person, but when we were shooting in Japan, he completely unmasked himself. He can be so playful, it's crazy. He's a really naughty big kid." As for Chilam, he praised that Myolie is a professional actress, and said he's a fan of hers. He laughed: "I watched her series before, like A Chip Off The Block and To Grow With Love. Myolie is different from the average artist, she is willing to sacrifice and devote herself. This spirit is well worth the encouragement and praise."
Flip roles to fight for other half
It's been several years since Chilam been in a TVB series, he frankly said he feels it's handy and hopes to shoot different types of series to satisfy his craving. He said: "Before when I was shooting in Mainland, I had to speak in Mandarin. This time I can finally say my lines in Cantonese again, feels like a 'fish back in the water' (glad to be back in familiar surrounding). If there is an opportunity, I hope to have a fresh new character. I want to be a woman, a woman with a good body figure. (Who is going to be the lead actor?) Bosco Wong! Try both." Myolie immediately said to him: "I also want to be a man, for my co-star of course Anita Yuen, fight with you for her!"
Announcing relationship, no need to be evasive
Myolie hopes that in the future, she can collaborate with Chilam again. She believes that they can give off a different spark. She said: "Another collaboration will definitely be even better. This time, I adapted to his style of 'don't care about other people's feelings'. In our future collaboration, it will be even more natural and have more chemistry. Next time, he's going to be a woman, then let me be the man. I hope audience will like the 'Cheung-Wu' combination." Myolie also told Chilam to share his feelings when he announced his relationship back in the day. Chilam felt that it's not necessary to be too evasive, the audience now are very accepting. He said: "Just like Kimura Takuya who has two daughters, and still just as popular. He's the Number 1 male star in Japan. I have a son too, and still there are people who appreciate my acting and singing." So will Myolie copy Chilam and announce her relationship with long time rumored boyfriend Bosco? Myolie laughed: "If have one then I'll announce!"
Little Morton reports to mom on dad's kiss scenes
Chilam reveals this his son Morton is a TV fan, often supporting his series. He said: "Last time when he was watching Who's the Hero and saw the kiss scene between Ada Choi and I, he immediately went to report to his mom and said I was kissing that girl on TV, luckily I reported to my wife beforehand."

Charmaine Sheh: It's Hard to Be the Lead
Charmaine Sheh is being nominated 'Best Actress' TV queen in recent years. Winning the title her first time in 2006, but she lost to "rival" Sheren Tang the past 2 years. Rumors said the actress is unsatisfied with the result, and intends to leave and focus in the Mainland market. But of course, she denies these rumors.
"In fact, winning or losing is not the most important. 'Can't Buy Me Love' and 'No Regrets' have different genres. I'm very happy both dramas did well. It's a double win. I think the most competitive race for TV Queen was in 2004. Three of us from 'War and Beauty' were in the top 5 nominations. I'm more relaxed every year. To be honest, it's already great to be in the top 5, it proved I'm able to compete."
Starred in many dramas as the lead, Charmaine's role as Chiu Yeung Princess is one of her favorite roles.
"I rarely stared in comedies. I was afraid when I read the scripts in the beginning. This girl is annoying, always causing troubles! I was working on 'When Heaven Burns' at the same time, so I didn't have much time to analyze the character. I'm glad everyone like her at the end, letting viewers see the other side of me. It's very happy to film comedies. Chemistry between actors is important, and I think we're a perfect combo in the drama."
Charmaine entered the showbiz after winning Miss Hong Kong second runner-up in 1997. Her acting and voice were criticized in the beginning, but she caught up after working hard, big thanks to TVB's Catherine Tsang.
"She always say this to me: 'You're so ugly, fix it up!' She keeps pushing me. I didn't know how to act before, but she never gave up on me. She keeps giving me opportunities, and I tried my best to change. I remember asking Felix Wong when we filmed together in 2001: 'How can I do better, just like you?' He said act more and you would get better. You get what you work for."
"I never went to TVB's acting class. I was a plain white paper after participating in Miss HK. I'm like a sponge, absorbing and learning others' good points, then getting more confident gradually and finally found my way. I would spend a lot of time preparing and studying my character. Like in 'When Heaven Burns,' I kept thinking how my boyfriend got killed and my unhappy past the month before filming."
Charmaine appeared to be tired during the interview. In fact, she has been filming nonstop the past year---she filmed 170 episodes of TV drama in total. She said she really wants to take a break and go on a vacation soon. Doesn't even have time to rest, of course she doesn't have time to date. Although her grandma often urges her to get married soon, but the TVB actress still haven't found her Mr. Right.
"You can't go quick on this. I think it's all fated. Now I won't purposely make it happen. Plus, if I have a boyfriend now, I don't even have time to be with him. I would feel very sorry for him."
Haven't find a Mr. Right in real life, Charmaine already had many rumors with her fellow TVB colleagues, like Moses Chan and Raymond Lam recently. She is tired of even explaining them.
"Many are so made up. They're just writing them for fun. It just happens to every guy I work with. I would answer when they ask me. I don't know what they would write about. I worked with Moses before, but it wasn't last year they finally wrote about us."
Although she is not doing well on her love life, but definitely well on investment. Earlier she earned nearly 9.0 million after selling a "feng shui" house. She is very happy about it.
"I'm happy when I look at my deposits. I would save what I earned. I don't know stocks well, so I only invest on properties. I would go for a new place when the price drops."

Angela Chang On Family Scandal
Angela Chang is opening up her feelings on her family scandal.
The singer accepted a magazine interview lately and talked about her family issues again. She didn't think she did anything ungrateful.
"I don't do things that would hurt others. If I didn't do anything wrong, I absolutely won't cry for it," she says. "I'm not asking for everyone's sympathy if I cry. This is my persistence."
She feels very down when the whole world misunderstands her. She doesn't understand why it's her, but she faces everything with courage.
"You will never get the answer for it. I told myself at that time, 'You only have two choices: one is to avoid, the other is to face it.' I chose the second option. I know I need a lot courage to face myself, the media, and my family. But if I chose this, I won't be afraid. As long as I didn't anything wrong, I'll continue to walk, so I'll see a different angle of the matter."
These scandals are hard on Angela, but she learned about life and who actually treats her well.
"I know who would stay by my side, and encourage me not to give up. In this family, I always play the role of 'father.' My sister plays the role of 'mother.' We take care of our younger brother together. This is always how we take care of our family, even back in the day when we didn't have money. This is a responsibility."

Tavia Yeung Wants to be China's Evilest
Her new drama "The Rippling Blossom" is airing soon, but Tavia Yeung is filming in Mainland China now. The drama is airing during Chinese New Year, but she is not worried: "Ratings might be affected, but I'm not too worried. As long as it gets to release!"
After "The Mysteries of Love," Tavia already filmed four dramas, so she can go to Mainland now and earn more money: "This time I'm filming an ancient drama with Patrick Tam. I'm playing a villain, an evil female lead. This is my first time filming a Mainland drama. Renminbi [China's currency] here I come!"
Tavia once played a villain in "Beyond the Realm of Conscience," and this time she is playing a similar role. She said: "I want to see whether I can be eviler. Already that evil last time in Hong Kong, maybe there won't be another chance like this, haha! I want to be China's evilest!" She worried viewers would see her as a villain from now on, but after she saw Ron Ng plays a villain earlier in a Mainland drama, she understands Mainland viewers are quite reasonable on this.
First time invading the Mainland market, Tavia knows this is an important opportunity for her; she does not want to play plain roles anymore. However, she will not leave her 'home' TVB: "I'm very loyal to my company. I signed TVB forever!"

Sheren Tang Wishes to be Loved
Although Sheren Tang excels in having a great career, but that does not apply to her love life. The tough "Gau Goo Leung" yells at bad men often on TV, but in real life, she is just like any other women; she just wants to be loved."Wining this award twice in the row, not filming any new series yet, next year's TV Queen shouldn't be me! I know Charmaine Sheh are filming some good projects. I think she's going to win it next year! In my opinion, she's a very hardworking actress. She's good at memorizing scripts, this is a rare skill. Filming 'Can't Buy Me Love' isn't easy. It's even harder to be happy, mad, and sad all at once in a comedy, Charmaine's good!"
When veteran actor Dik Lung forgets to present the "Best Actress" award to her at this year's TVB Anniversary Awards , Sheren says gently: "You haven't give the award to me!". This is the real Sheren, not the tough women you often see her playing in TV dramas. When it comes to love, the two-time TV Queen winner is not as strong as we thought she is. After studying the Enneagram of Personality for many years, Sheren knows she has a different personality than her role in "No Regrets": "Gau Goo Leung is the nine*. She controls everything and she is tough. But Sheren Tang is an aligator on the outside but not inside. She just wants to be loved. She wants her man to be responsible and decide everything for her. But in this Asian society, it's hard for her to find her Mr. Right. She is a four!"
Unfortunately, Sheren always meets the wrong person at a wrong time. The point is, the person who is wrong is actually herself: "Never met the right one, never! I'm wrong with the definition of love. But I never regret. Fortunately I encounter the decision of getting married only once, and I chose not to marry. I know we would definitely get a divorce. I only need the feeling of worrying and missing you in the past. Once I don't have this feeling anymore, I would leave immediately. I don't know how to be inclusive, this is even worst! Now my views on love is back to normal. Love is a lasting gift. Hope it's not too late for Sheren Tang to know this!" What if she is late? There are 7 million people in Hong Kong and there are many men who like to pretend they are tough ones. None received trust from Sheren; none can make her feel safe.
Sheren says: "In Hong Kong, many men would say they love you, can take care of you, and they tell you you don't need to work. In fact, they never know what do women want. When they're dating me, once they're being followed by papparazi, they will leave me, and don't know how to understand my occupation. I got to know a Jewish man 10 years ago and we dated for a while. He didn't have a big reaction when he knows I'm an actress, but instead brought me to pedestrian streets to shop and let me know how to enjoy life. Too bad we didn't stay together because of our religion, but I will remember this forever."
Willing to be loved but has an independent personality, Sheren is someone with double personalities and that troubles her in making decisions at work. Everyone knows TVB wants to sign her as one of its "biological children," but it is not an easy task: "Miss Lok [Virginia Lok] knows I have a good relationship with Helen [her current manager] and there is no reason to break it. So it [signing long term contract] never happened. But TVB raised me, I think it will give me freedom, like Charmaine, she won't do everything."
As for exchanging awards with contracts, Sheren laughs and says: "I actually think winning this award again will make me be responsible for more matters. There's no free lunch. I was a pearl left in the depths of the sea [talent left unrecognized] once, I played supporting roles once. Having an achievement like now, besides thanking God, also must cherish!"
True, there are many "unrecognized pearls" being rediscovered and Sheren predicts Power Chan is the next Evergreen Mak; he should earn a bigger applause from the audience. Besides wishing to be loved, Sheren also likes to appreciate and share the love.

Fahrenheit's Aaron Yan, Career Once Affected By Gay Rumor
Fahrenheit's Aaron Yan (Real name: Wu Genglin) has been in the showbiz for 6 years now and became popular with boy band group Fahrenheit. But his showbiz life isn't always smooth---he discloses he was once replaced in a drama because of gay rumor. He finally understands the importance of "love yourself, others will love you then."The 24-year-old idol was discovered by talent companies in a special way. He put up a handsome photo of him on Yahoo Match [1st pic below] and gained popularity quickly. After seeing the photo on the front page, companies like GTV, SETTV, and Comic Ritz all approached him once, and he decided to sign Comic Ritz in the end.
Aaron's first time acting was in "An Shi Ai Mei Hui". He didn't earn anything from his 2-episodes guest appearance. In fact, he was afraid of camera and was shivering the whole time, making him once fear of acting. After all, singing is what he is interested in. Soon, future members of Fahrenheit Jiro Wang, Calvin Chen, and Wu Zun entered Comic Ritz. The four first shoot drama "K.O One" together then grouped as Fahrenheit, and finally receiving the fame they never received before.
Aaron discloses Wu Zun was very indecisive when they just grouped as Fahrenheit, because he was afraid of singing and dancing. "I told Wu Zun, we need you, let us fight together," he says. He admits it wasn't easy for the them to unite as one. "We need to get used to living as a group. I'm the youngest. Things I know and interested in are different than theirs. It's hard to avoid having a gap. The person who talks to me the most is Wu Zun. He's like a dad, always telling me things. Last year's concert helped us get closer a lot, letting us know the strength when the four of us get together is great."
Aaron is always on a smooth road of acting, but it wasn't until 2007 that a problem occurred---his role in "Rolling Love" is replaced [by fellow Fahrenheit member Jiro]. "I didn't know the reason why, until after I shoot 'Mysterious Incredible Collector' that I was informed it was because of the homosexual rumor about me," he discloses. "After that, I only go out with girls and don't dare to stand too close with guys. Or I'll just stay at home," he says helplessly.

| Aaron as a baby! |
Because of his father's job before, Aaron stayed in the US and didn't return Taiwan until 5th grade. Now he wants to earn more money, so his father, who works as a doctor, can retire early and enjoy a good life with his wife.
