Will not compete in marriage and giving birth
When asked if Kevin's current relationship became high-profiled compared to their past relationship, Niki said: "It belonged to last generation and happened many years ago. It is pointless for comparison. (Will compete with them in marriage and giving birth?) There is no way to compete and I refrain from giving myself pressure. It does not matter and I am a low-profile person and have my own style. Happiness is most important."
Mentioning about herself and James Mark were taken photographs when leaving the apartment one after another, Sisley said: "I am focusing on my work and no reply about other stuff."
After Kevin announced the relationship, Grace wore a black revealing dress to attend a TVB event and confessed she was dating together with Kevin, and she was seen smiling sweetly all the time when facing the camera.
When the reporters asked when they could sent their congratulations to her, Grace replied: "No idea how to answer. Previously, we mentioned we will date and our relationship is good. We can understand each other better and the feeling is good." When asked about her relationship progress, Grace appeared indecisive: "We are dating at the moment and will continue to date so as to understand each other character better. (Is your father unhappy with Kevin?) Daddy knows my situation and whereabout and we always have good bondings. (Is he aware you are dating?) He knows our relationship and needs not me to tell him directly. Hope everyone will respect me and give some privacy. (Why do you need to avoid?) Private affair is unnecessary to announce to the public and dating concerns two parties only. (Admit in low-profile?) I do not want to discuss this question again. (Kevin tells you before announcing?) Yes."
When mentioned if she felt the sudden absence of Kevin's old love, Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼) from the same event in order to avoid her, Grace said: "I heard she felt unwell and hope she will recover soon."

He added his father had intention to retire early and had let their relatives to handle the family business, as Ron was not interested in doing business.
Hoped both parties will compromise
When mentioned about the rumours that his contract with TVB will expire in month end, Ron replied he had met the senior management including Virginia Lok (樂易玲) and Catherine Tsang (曾勵珍): "I provided some opinions and they made some offer, and we are considering at the moment. (Wish to resume filming series in Mainland China?) Hope it will be win-win situation but the company has its own stand and it is best to compromise."
Rejected to update new developments
When asked about any new developments between Grace Chan (陳凱琳) and himself, Kevin said: "Thank you for your concern. We are not filming variety show and need not report to everyone daily." Susan Tse (謝雪心) who was present at the same event seemed to know the details and expressed today was a good day and Kevin looked very radiant. At this moment, Kevin tried to explain about Susan's remarks: "Please ignore me and I know what to do." Susan who was beside him and said: "It is obvious he is smiling sweetly." Kevin replied with embarrassment: "Please do not bother about me."
Get married is the next target?
When mentioned about buying $4.5 million red Ferrari car in order to woo girls, Kevin said: "We have dreams when little and should make it true when growing up. (Anymore dreams has yet to come true?)

Asking if getting married and having kids was his greatest goal, Kevin rejected to reply.

company's anniversary so we invited her to attend and she immediately

really bad at acting, but on the other hand, I want to write the script
and produce a drama, so I hope we will have a chance to collaborate in
the future." Asked whether she heard about Leung calling Yang Ziyao a
"crooked star", Suki said she wasn't sure but she believes Leung
wouldn't be bullied because she was one who wouldn't stay quiet if there
was injustice.
Michelle said that she and Chinese actress Monica Mok visited M on the Bund for drinks, and were snubbed by the service staff.
She said on Weibo, “The service is really bad! After finishing our dinner, we were not allowed to walk in for drinks at 9 pm. The attitude was even fierce and told us, “If you go in now, each person has to order a main dish with a minimum spending of RMB 600. Are you able to afford?”
Michelle even posted a photo with Monica and teased her, “Monica Mok, don’t tell me it was because you were dressing like a beggar?”

Mentioning Myolie Wu's (胡杏兒) rumor of not renewing her contract and signing with another company, Ron expressed that he wasn't clear.

Asked whether the company does not cherish their veterans, he said: "Not really, the company's biggest asset is the actors."
Regarding Bobby pointing out that filming ancient series in
the summer to be difficult, he smilingly said: "The sky is bluer so
filming ancient series in the summer is much better! Our peculiar
characteristic as TVB actors is that if it's not cold enough, we don't
do water scenes and if it's not hot enough, we don't film ancient
series. That's how we become such hardworking actors."
Previously having rejected to participate in TVB new series Trainee Angel (實習天使), he said that he knew the producer specifically tailor-made the role for him, but unfortunately, the series clashed with the filming of his Chinese drama.
Man must build their foundation first
Him expressed he felt comfortable for having less location shooting when filming Trendsetters series. When mentioned his girlfriend, Tavia praised studios in TVB had good facilities which allowed them to see each other despite separate filming, Him said: "You (reporters) should understand the designs in TVB. It is very simple as able to see each other while eating or in make-up room. (Buying property?) We have many tasks including buying property in our life and let's take one step at a time. Hope to complete my work assignments this year. (Keep viewing it?) Nope, only once and one needs some luck to buy property. (Preparing marriage proposal?) It depends on fate but work remains the priority as it represents the man's achievements and necessary to build the foundation."
Agreed to revert alimony to original amount once job is secured
Last year, when their romance was revealed, his ex-wife suddenly suggested to increase the alimony to two times the original amount or else she would take action against him. Tracy said: "Raymond isn't afraid that she will say something to other people. It's just that he understands that his ex-wife was unemployed back then so he agreed. But they've agreed that once she found a new job, the alimony will return to the original amount." Last month, they've discovered that his ex-wife already found a new job but didn't inform him so Raymond reduced the alimony to the amount that the court has decided. Tracy revealed further that they immediately received a lawyer's letter stating that his ex-wife is requesting a three times increase. She expressed that these accusations are unfair because he has the receipts that prove he paid alimony in full each month and that they were mentally prepared that someone would disclose information to the media to stir up the issue. So, she decided to reveal the situation to the public and see what actions his ex-wife will take. Tracy also expressed that his fiancé wants to see his daughter but since his daughter's cellphone was taken away, they've lost contact. She said: "Sentimentally, as his fiancee, I will support him unconditionally. Rationally, I understand at this stage that some parties will encounter mood changes so I understand her. I hope everyone will give us more space!"
When asked if he renewed contract with TVB, Bobby said: "Catherine and I had good relationship and we had verbal agreement. She had been looking out opportunities for me since I joined the company and she knew what I want. Catherine is my partner and benefactor and I will accede to her request in terms of rate."
Bobby added that Catherine did not think of not renewing contract before and hoped he will work for several years. He said: "My contract ended in March and Assistant General Manager, Peter Au (區偉林) told me to continue with my contract." Asked when he will be filming series again, Bobby replied Catherine told him the filming for new series will start in November.
During a recent interview, Cecilia denied that she was pregnant and said, “Two days ago, I went water-skiing. If I were pregnant, I would not be going for water-skiing!”
Cecilia has been active at church lately and has close relationships with her fellow Christian friends Sheren Tang, Sammi Cheng and Pinky Cheung. Recently, she even designed a set of 18K white gold jewellery, named as “I am a sinner”, and plans to give as gifts to her close friends.
Cecilia said that she initially wished to keep it a secret, but she did not expect that the news would leak out after 6 months of planning. She was puzzled why reports said that each set cost HK$80,000, as it was not meant to be on sale. The jewellery sets are meant to give to her friends as a form of blessings to them.
As to why she has named the jewellery set “I am a sinner”, Cecilia thinks that nobody is perfect, and everyone has to constantly improve themselves.

When Moses saw a reporter, he was shocked, but later smiled and greeted the reporter.
Aimee said, “Since we are free, we just come out for a few hours. Now, we have to quickly return home to look after our sons. Actually, my hubby is very busy filming with drama recently. It’s just nice that he doesn’t have to work today, so we just come out to shop for a while.”

The manager felt being wrongly accused
Lydia accepted the telephone interview from ON.CC (東網), and with regards to the response from TVB, she felt she was wrongly accused and a need to clarify: "Virginia Lok replied that she was negotiating about the contract but it was not. We were discussing in her office and I heard her personally saying the sentence 'Will look for you if there is any' to her colleague. Thus, it is not said by me definitely. I am Bobby's manager and will receive commission, and it is impossible for me to reduce his workload. Subsequently, Bobby consoled me and asked me if I finally understood the feeling when artiste was wrongly accused." When mentioned about the clarification from the manager, Bobby replied it was normal reaction and defended her: "We worked together for 15 years and how can I not trust her? (Did it affect your working cooperation?) Yes and our relationship is much better than before. She is a very loyal person."
When asked if she knew that TVB did not renew contract with Bobby Au-yeung, Tavia said she only learnt it from the news. Tavia praised that Bobby was a versatile actor and could star in any roles, and it would be a pity if his contract was not renewed.
Tavia said that she had not been mistreated when she negotiated her contract with TVB in the past. As Tavia’s contract with TVB is ending soon, she was asked if she had plans to focus her acting career in China.
Tavia admitted that she wished to film more mainland productions, but does not like big changes.
“I hope to seek a balance. There are many ways to work together. I graduated from TVB’s acting class and I treat TVB like my family.”
Tavia also said, “I will miss my family if I am overseas for too long. I can get homesick. (You will miss Him Law?) I will miss my dog and my mum!”
When asked if marriage would be one of the factors for considering the contract renewal, Tavia said, “It has nothing to do with it. Even I am married, I will still work.”

When mentioned TVB did not renew contract with Bobby Au Yeung (歐陽震華), Charmaine said: "The series acted by him received good ratings and he is a lucky star. Also, TVB approached him to disguise as Prosperity God (財神) and I cannot accept he will appear from another television station. (Hope to work with him again?) Yes especially comedy series, as we will film happily and the audiences are happy to see him too."
Charmaine disclosed her contract with TVB will end next year: "We are negotiating currently and I feel developments and working happily are important." She hoped there will be additional developments in movie industry and the companies in Hong Kong and Mainland China did approach her as well. When mentioned Myolie Wu's (胡杏兒) contract with TVB will be ending soon, Charmaine said: "They definitely have the solution."

In another interview with ON.CC (東網), Cho Lam praised Leanne was a good wife: "She is very caring as she knew I was busy and told me somebody was looking after her and not to worry." Cho Lam also felt grateful as Leanne was able to joke: "She is in good health as many friends and relatives visited her. Thank you for their concern and I told them to bring something for her to pass time but sufficient rest is most important."
Cho Lam added Leanne could not take any solid food now: "It was most difficult for her, as it was boring and she could not eat at all, in order to get rid of all infections. It could take a few days to a week and thank you for many friends' concern again. I will chat with her everyday so as to kill her boredom."
Recently, the duo was having a late dinner together, and their date was unfortunately crashed by the paparazzi.
Grace was very careful to avoid being seen on a date with Kevin. After attending an event, Grace took a taxi from Causeway Bay to Prince Edward, and then waited for her father to send her home. When most of the reporters called it a day at around 10 pm, Grace then left her house to meet Kevin.
When being bombarded with questions by the reporters, Kevin finally spoke up and said, “Can you let us enjoy the meal in peace?”
A restaurant staff came forward and stopped the reporters from taking photos.
After the dinner, Kevin personally drove a HKD 1.3 million BMW to send Grace home.
Bobby is most familiar for his role as a lawyer in legal drama File of Justice <壹號皇庭> in which he starred in all five seasons. His popular dramas also include Armed Reaction <陀槍師姐>, Witness to a Prosecution <洗冤录> and Forensic Heroes <法证先锋> in which all spun into successful installments.
Hence, it came as a shock when news surfaced that TVB did not renew the contract with Bobby.
The 54-year-old veteran star has since confirmed the news, and even the man himself was shocked about it.
“Actually, I have been very happy working with TVB on one drama per year. After filming With or Without You <東坡家事>, my manager discussed the contract renewal with TVB. The respond we got was, ‘If there is any suitable job, we will look for you again’. We realise that the contract will not be renewed. I did not specify any special requirements or ask for any pay increment to renew contract. I only wish to maintain the current relationship. I am shocked too!”
Although Bobby has, in recent years, based his acting career in China, he still wishes to film dramas for the Hong Kong audience. “After working together for a long time, I still hope to keep the good relationship. I didn’t expect to get such a respond, and also hope to get a better picture.”
It is understood that TVB management is also shocked when learnt about the news, and has sent its drama production director, Catherine Tsang to talk to Bobby about renewing his contract. TVB also intends to tailor made a drama specially for Bobby.
When being told that Catherine Tsang would be discussing the contract with him, Bobby said, “I just take it as a chatting session. I will be quite reluctant to leave TVB, but eventually I still have to face it.”

Ever since she was rumoured to be the third party coming between Aaron Kwok and Lynn Hung, Christine was under tremendous pressure and suffered from hypothyroidism, a condition characterized by abnormally low thyroid hormone production.
Early this year, Christine also underwent a 7-day liquid diet in an attempt to slim down. However, she is still unable to regain her slim figure. Used to be one of the rising starlets and playing supporting roles in previous dramas, Christine is now reduced to playing only a minor role in a new series EU: Overtime Mission <EU超時任務>.
Last week, Christine was filming a scene with Vincent Wong and Tracy Chu on the rooftop. Although wearing a black outfit, Christine was still spotted to be quite meaty. Even the black jacket seemed too tight for her.
