Now that Li Xian (李现) has cemented his place as a male god in the Chinese entertainment industry, everyone has been dying to know his ideal type and the qualities he looks for in a girlfriend. In a previous interview, he mentioned he doesn’t have one and that it depends on fate when meeting the right person. However, in the latest interview, the hosts asks him a series of questions to reveal the type of girls he might be interested in, but he is too nice and gives very neutral answers. It looks like everyone has a chance at being “Xian’s girlfriend”*. He also fails to mention a special someone when asked who is his female goddess.

Host: Smart and gentle or cheerful and active?
Li Xian: Both would be the best
Host: Older or younger?
Li Xian: Don’t mind
Host: Long hair or short hair?
Li Xian: Both are acceptable
Host: Face or legs?
Li Xian: Both are good
Host: Hot pants or mini skirts?
Li Xian: It depends on what the girl likes, yes. 
Host: Who is the female goddess in your mind? 
Li Xian: It’s the same as everyone because of dramas or movies that you like someone. For example, Scarlett Johansson, Rachael McAdams, Emma Stone, I like them all. 
Host: Shouldn’t you mention Yang Zi at this point?
Li Xian: Very sorry! Let’s ask the question again! Ask it again, very sorry!
Host: Who is the female goddess in your mind? 

Li Xian: Of course it’s Teacher Yang Zi, right?

Ever since three more girls came out claiming to be victims of Steven Cheung’s (張致恒) cheating, there have been reports that he owes them money. There were reports Steven Cheung turned to Kenny Kwan (關智斌) and Yumiko Cheng (鄭希怡) to borrow $100,000 HKD to repay his ex-girlfriends. In addition, it’s reported he has already filmed a video apologizing to Kenny Kwan, his management company, Shaw Brothers, and admit fault to all the girls he has hurt.

Apple Daily HK reached out to two of the girls that came forward, Ms. S and Ms. C, who claim Steven Cheung owed them money. They have reported Steven Cheung has already repaid and apologized to them yesterday. Steven Cheung had once borrowed $3,000 HKD from Ms. C and owed Ms. S over $2,000 HKD. However, the largest creditor is April Leung (梁皓恩), who shared a rental apartment with him in Wan Chai. The rent was around $15,000 HKD a month, but it’s said April Leung was the one who paid the rent most of the time. It’s reported April Leung has already given him a last ultimatum and is requiring him to repay her $100,000 HKD by July 30.

Kenny Kwan relayed his message through his manager, Mani Fok (霍汶希), saying: “He said, “We’ve been brothers for so many years, we don’t really calculate that much. I don’t really remember.”” As for Yumiko Cheng, she admits to lending money to Steven Cheung. She responded, “We’ve known each other for so long. We won’t consider that much. I hope he quickly handles everything.” It’s said Steven Cheung has revealed to his friends that he hopes to change, cultivate himself, take care of his baby, and live a peaceful lifestyle with his new family.

TVB artist, Sarah Song (宋熙年), announced her departure from TVB after being with the company for 12 years on Instagram today. She’s originally from Sydney, Australia, but has called Hong Kong home after winning the crown at the 2007 Miss Chinese International Pageant. After joining TVB, she did mostly hosting shows, like “Scoop” (東張西望), “Dolce Vita” (港生活·港享受), and MC jobs. Her contract was up recently and she took the plunge to test the market, like her husband, Jason Chan (陳智燊), who left TVB last year. Sarah Song and Jason Chan also have a thriving Youtube channel.

Ever since the “OnSum Cheating” scandal was came to light in April, Kenneth Ma’s (馬國明) love life is always the center of attention in his interviews. The media has always been pressing him to speak on his current relationship status with Jacqueline Wong (黃心穎). While he has avoided addressing the topic, it’s pretty clear they are no longer together. Kenneth Ma finally addresses it in a recent exclusive interview with Oriental Daily News.

When speaking with Oriental Daily News about Jacqueline Wong, Kenneth Ma says, “I can only say we are still friends no matter what. We are still friends. There’s no need not to be friends. I think everyone’s reaction to this incident is a bit overzealous. These are still relationship matters after all. It’s hard to say who is right or wrong in a relationship. There’s no need to have such a big reaction from everyone. No need to attack her. In fact, she knows she’s wrong. Who hasn’t done wrong before?” (Do you forgive her?) “I’ve said it before. I was mad, but only for a very short time. Afterwards, I was more worried. I hope everyone won’t have such a big reaction anymore. Actually, you can give her another chance.”

Helping her to make a comeback?
Reporters then ask Kenneth Ma if he was trying to help her make a come back, he responded, “It’s not helping. It’s just everyone has been overreacting to this incident. I can continue being friends with her, why is everyone reacting so strongly? Everyone is still yelling at her. I’ve already responded before. She still has a really long road to walk.”
Reporters try to ask if he has returned to being a single bachelor again, he says, “It doesn’t matter. I’m not talking about it. I just hope this situation quickly settles down. It’s already been so long, we don’t need to socialize these matters again.” When asked if he had seen or contacted Jacqueline Wong, he responded, “Not talking about it. I’m not responding to any of it. If I respond to it, more questions will arise. Actually, I do know where she is right now. It was reported she went elsewhere for school.” On whether Jacqueline Wong still has girlfriend status, he said, “Not responding. I don’t know why everyone needs to draw the line so strongly. I really don’t have much to respond.” Kenneth Ma is then asked if Jacqueline Wong wanted to get back together, he said, “Not answering. These are hypothetical questions.”

Someone must really want Louis Koo (古天樂) and Jessica Hsuan (宣萱) to be together because this is the second time they have been rumored to be together in two months. Only this time, the rumor reaches further to say Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan are getting married this year!

Back in June, a rumor was started by a netizen stating Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan were dating. This led to Louis Koo trending on Weibo. However, the two never addressed the rumors and the dust finally settled. A few days ago, a viral rumor was circulating on Weibo stating a “Hong Media media outlet” reported Louis Koo and Jessica Hsuan were getting married this year. This supposed “Hong Kong media outlet” also said Louis Koo’s recent purchase of a yacht was to be filial for his parents, but also to be used for his wedding this year with Jessica Hsuan.

The “proof” of them dating includes a gif of Louis Koo whispering into Jessica Hsuan’s ear at a dinner celebration with a whole bunch of cast and crew members from last year. Jessica Hsuan even posted a picture of that night on her Instagram.

TVB actress, Alice Chan (陳煒), has been single for 7 years ever since divorcing her Taiwanese husband. However, it seems the 45 year old actress has finally found a new romance. Apple Daily HK reports they received a tip and pictures from a reader showing pictures of Alice Chan with her new doctor beau at a medical seminar in Bali, Indonesia last week. Alice Chan was seen holding hands with her 6 feet tall doctor boyfriend around the hotel.

It’s reported Alice Chan was by her boyfriend’s side during the entire seminar, which lasted from July 5 – July 7. When her boyfriend was speaking, Alice Chan was seen taking pictures of him on stage. Once the session was over, Alice Chan was also seen taking pictures on stage. When almost everyone had left, they were still holding hands and taking pictures on stage.

Alice Chan’s doctor boyfriend is called Dr. Aldous Chan (陳國強). He is around 40 years old and is also said to be a divorcee. He had actually opened a medical beauty center with actor, Ben Wong (黃智賢), and another doctor last June. Alice Chan was also present on the day of the opening. Ben Wong and Alice Chan have been friends for years and he was actually the one who introduced them together. However, he doesn’t dare take credit for their romance. Fellow TVB actress, Elena Kong, also knows Dr. Chan and is her primary care doctor. She says, “He is very thoughtful and patient. He is a very good person. When he’s with Alice, he is very gentle and soft spoken. The both of them are a great match!”

Cheronna (吳嘉熙) and Aka (趙慧珊), members of Hong Kong girl group, Super Girls, attended an event today to promote recycling. While talking about how Cheronna and her boyfriend met, the reporters started to ask about Aka’s love life as she is single. When talking about Aka’s ideal type, Cheronna revealed, “She likes really good guys. If there are suitors, I’d help her filter them out first. There are some not suitable for her.” Reporters asked Aka what qualities she looked for in a spouse. She said, I like those who are filial and looks after the family. I think those like Kenneth Ma (馬國明) are good, but unfortunately we’re not filming together, so there’s no way.” The reporters get really excited at her answers. Aka then asks, “Did I go too far with the joke?” Cheronna then says, “You don’t need to film in order to get to know him!”

A reporter then excitedly suggests Aka to film a MV with Kenneth Ma since he was busy filming Kayee Tam’s (譚嘉儀) music video lately. Aka agrees and said they must consider this for their next MV, if Kenneth Ma is willing. Cheronna and the reporters said there’s no need to consider, but Aka says Kenneth Ma needs to consider it. Aka then reiterates she’s just joking. Then one of the reporters mentions there is a 13 year age gap between Aka (b. 1987) and Kenneth Ma (b. 1974). Aka then explains, “If I am really dating, whether it’s someone younger or older, it’s not a problem. But I am really joking, don’t take it out of context.”

When a reporter asks what type of man she’s looking for physically, she admits Kenneth Ma is also her type and even admits he is her idol.
