On October 3rd, Gigi Leung married her Spanish boyfriend Serigo. Yesterday the newly wed finally returns to HK and attracted nearly 500 reporters and fans at the airport. The two were especially loving, although they were surrounded by the media, they still displayed a sweet smile. Gigi happily told everyone to call her "Mrs. Pretty"

Gigi teased Sergio's last name is very long, so she happily told everyone to just call her "Mrs. Pretty". She expressed after her marriage earlier this month, she and Sergio stayed in Barcelona to be with family. As she will have to go back to work in Changsha, she returned with Sergio. Gigi said: "My husband is still on vacation, so he's accompanying me. However, we will be getting back to our own work in November. He will head back to Spain. (Will you be unwilling to part from him?) Still have to work! He already handled everything for transferring to HK to work." Two months ago when readers exposed that she was preparing for marriage, since she wanted to keep things low-key, was she upset? Gigi at first did not have a clue what the reporter was asking? Then she said: "No problem, I was focused on the wedding preparations."

44 year old Leon Lai and 31 year old Gaile Lok were married in 2008. Since then they have been a very loving couple, earlier it was even rumored Galie was pregnant, but unfortunately it was just a rumor. In the recent month, Leon and Gaile 's relationship is on the rocks. In August, Gaile celebrated her 31st birthday alone. Not long after, she was spotted moving out of their home. Last month, Gigi and Zhang Ziyi attended an event together and stirred up rumors. Ultimately fire starts on the whole situation, Leon and Gaile issued a joint statement this month denouncing the rumors, just outright "nonsense and reckless speculations." However, what's written on paper just isn't as practical as actions.

A few days ago, the couple were working both in Beijing working. Netizens spotted Leon and Gaile spending a sweet night outside a hotel on Tuesday night. At the time, Leon was dressed casually with black-framed glasses and sneakers. His arms were so natural and unrestrained, wrapped around his wife Gaile in her green jacket. Gaile intimately stayed in Leon's embraced and the couple walked slowly together. Netizens posted the photos on Weibo: "Last night, near the hotel on Campbell Street, I unexpectedly saw... Leon Lai???"

Until yesterday, the couple were both working separately in Beijing. Leon was promoting for his new film White Vengeance, whereas Gaile attended a skincare event. At the time Gaile was asked about meeting Leon in Beijing? She kept her mouth shut: "I said a long time ago I won't answer personal questions. Thank you all for the concern. We are doing well and we hope everyone understands that. I will not comment on gossip news or personal questions."

Fala Chen, Kate Tsui, Samantha Ko and Toby Chan were ribbon-cutting guests for the grand opening of a handbag store. There were no security personnel on site, nor were there any railing to separate the guests and the reporters. This caused a huge confusion because many ran up towards the 4 beauties. It was fortunate that no one was hurt.

Fala is one of this year's hot favorites for TV Queen, but recently her popularity has been overshadowed by Myolie Wu. Also, Myolie's new series is broadcasting soon, and this will boost the momentum. Fala expressed aside from Myolie, there are other female artists who are very popular as well and have high chances to win. She personally does not mind who wins the award, even if its a beef or pork (consolation awards), it will still be fine.

As for Charmaine Sheh's recent rumor that she's implementing the TVB FaDan poaching for Ricky Wong. All along, Fala has been in touch with Charmaine privately, did she receive an invitation from Charmaine too? Fala expressed she does meet up with Charmaine in their personal lives, but Charmaine has never mentioned anything regarding the poach. Also, she still has a contract with TVB and does not believe the rumors. Kate also expressed she does not believe Charmaine would take such actions. She said she has received Ricky Wong's call but not Charmaine's call.

TVB actress, 30-year-old Yoyo Chen (陳自瑤) and 28-year-old Vincent Wong (王浩信) have been dating for 3 years. Despite a noisy break up earlier, Vincent successfully reconciled with Yoyo within two weeks. The pair appeared to have straightened out their problems, as Vincent suddenly announced the couple’s wedding plans! However, Vincent denied that the reason for the rushed wedding was due to Yoyo’s alleged pregnancy!

Eager to become “Mrs. Wong,” it was understood that Yoyo was almost two months pregnant and wished to get married before her belly bump surfaced. Yoyo and Vincent’s wedding will be held on November 13, 2011 at the Island Shangri-La Hotel in Hong Kong.

It was revealed that Yoyo and Vincent filed for marriage papers on October 7th. Although Vincent claimed that he had possessed marriage plans early in advance and planned to get his marriage certificate on a unique day (11/11/11) , it was understood that Yoyo’s pregnancy was the reason behind the couple’s rushed wedding.

An insider revealed, “Yoyo and Vincent admitted to their friends that they were expecting a baby. Otherwise, they will not get married so quickly. There is not a lot of time left and they could not secure a larger venue for their wedding. The date of the marriage registration and wedding reception are only two days apart! Due to space limitations, they can only accommodate over a dozen banquet tables.

“OnceVincent completes his theatrical project with Leila Tong (唐寧), he will partner with his good friends on a project, allowing his wife to rest more. After the paparazzi secretly photographed Yoyo and Vincent lounging in their apartment earlier, Vincent originally intended to move to a new home. Now that Yoyo is pregnant, they will follow Chinese tradition and not move at this sensitive time, choosing to will wait until after the baby is born,” Vincent’s close friend revealed.

Rose Chan Ka Hung yesterday modeled a stocking event. Today Rose will return to the Mainland to work on two films. First she will go to Hengdian for Wong Jing's SIU GUNG JUN MO LUM (LAUGHTER KUNG FU ROCKS MARTIAL ART WORLD), then she will go to Yunnan for the Xiong Xinxin directed GUANG HUI SUI YUE. She will have to fight in both films and expect to wrap up both in January next year. Would she lose extra money making opportunities? She said, "My full time job is acting! However I will have to reschedule some jobs that I took earlier to be done after my return." Michelle Ye (Yip Shuen) reportedly found a boyfriend in the Mainland, would she like to? She said, "No, I hope to focus on making movies first." She also said that if she was dating, communication would be the most important. Thus she would not mind the issue of geography. Would she mind finding a Mainland boyfriend? She said, "I mind dating myself! Because I will turn 19 next month, I don't want to date so soon. My birthday wish is for career and not for a boyfriend. (Would you want a career line?) I don't want line, the line on my hand (career line) is OK too."

TVB FaDan Charmaine Sheh switched over to the Mainland market and signed with a new company, 'ArtExpress'. However, she is still under a TVB 'per-series' contract. Recently it was reported Charmaine changed her mind and enters the poaching tide and entices other TVB artists to sign with Ricky Wong. Catherine Chau also follows her good friend and decided not to renew her TVB contract, which expires this month (October). It was also rumored Charmaine targeted Tavia Yeung as well, helping Ricky Wong get Tavia over to be his front line FaDan. Earlier Ricky Wong personally invited Bowie Lam out for a meal, while Joe Ma and Michael Tao are also his targets. Charmaine was accused of being the leader in the poaching and is now known as the 'betrayer'. Yesterday Charmaine's management company ArtExpress Production (創藝製作) issued a statement to the media clarifying the rumors.

Yesterday ArtExpress Production issued a statement, an excerpt is below:

We, ArtExpress, and City TeleCom's relationship is purely a business decision made by us. The collaboration is to provide greater room for development for our local artists. Ms. Charmaine Sheh has not participated in any of our business decisions or operations. The issue has innocently led to Ms. Sheh's involvement. ArtExpress extends our deepest apologies. We hope that the media will publish friendly reports in the future and do not use insulting words to harm innocent artists for the sake of a sensational report. Before publishing subjective opinions and content, please take the necessary steps to understand the entire situation before taking any action.

The statement also mentioned the fabricated news damages Charmaine and ArtExpress reputation and the related parties reserve the right to take legal action.

Reporters contacted Charmaine about her assistance to Ricky Wong in poaching TVB artists. Her manager Tina responded and expressed Charmaine has been in Mainland shooting a new drama all along and basically isn't aware of the situation at all. She and TVB still has a per-series contract, therefore this rumor has made it awkward for her. In November, Charmaine's When Heaven Burns will be releasing, she also hopes to take time off her schedule to participate in the HK promotions. The relationship between Charmaine and TVB is very positive.

As if Charmaine's good friend Catherine Chau is following her up north too? Tina said Catherine's contract ends late October and she will announce her future direction herself.

Asked about the form of collaboration between ArtExpress and City Telecom? Does 'providing artists greater room for development' as mentioned in the statement include work in City TeleCom? Tina said this is just a business collaboration, and there will be announcements later. However, Charmaine is independent, so she will not affect the business collaborations. Later, Charmaine exposed on Weibo that she's hurt. Tina said she just fell, nothing serious.

It was also reported Ricky Wong poached Ghetto Justice's editor and Lives of Omission's director to prepare the production of a new ghost-themed series.

Yesterday Michael Tse was recording for the final episode of TVB show Health Oddities 2. He laughed: "The program made everyone think I have medical knowledge, for example, I get questions on eczema in children."

Michael will soon be focusing on new film Laughing Gor Potential Criminal. He's not sure who his partner is yet, but it was said its possible that he may have a male partner? Michael laughed: "Any girl who gets near Laughing will not have a good ending."

Joyce Cheng said this episode discusses gallstones. In 2004 when she was in Singapore, she had gallstones before. At the time it was 3am when her abdomen started hurting until 6am. She woke up and called her mother Lydia Shum to accompany her to the hospital. Joyce said: "The doctor said I had gallstones in my gall badder and it was swelling. We were worried that it might burst, so decided to undergo surgery. The next day I was discharged from the hospital. My condition occurred because of my eating habits. Is it because I ate too much abalone since youth? Yes! It was the abalone!"
