TVB Entertainment News

Artiste Chin Siu Ho (錢小豪) was trying out his role image for the new series, Worship Martial Arts (潮拜武當), in Tseung Kwan O TVB City and other artistes included Tavia Yeung (楊怡), Yuen Qi (元秋), Timmy Hung (洪天明), Toby Leung (梁靖琪), Jason Chan (陳智燊) and etc. In fact, it was 20 years ago since Siu Ho filmed TVB series and he felt touched upon seeing his colleagues again.

While trying out the role image, Siu Ho laughed and mentioned that his role image resembled his brother, Chin Ka Lok (錢嘉樂). He said: "It is normal for two brothers to look alike." Siu Ho will be the male lead who had some relationship scenes with Yoyo Chen (陳自瑤), while his relationship with the female lead, Tavia Yeung, was based on destiny with no actual developments. He pointed that it seemed to be an ancient series but a modern series related to cops in fact.

When mentioned the connection between martial arts and human beings, Siu Ho expressed that it was considered a philosophy and said: "Everyone has different burden and fighting scene is definitely involved. TVB is well-known for covering every aspect."

In addition, the crew team will be going for outdoor shooting in October and Siu Ho expressed that he was worried about the tedious long filming schedule. He said: "Let me look at my identification details first. It is enough time for me."

After her provocative dance video and pictures were leaked out last month, TVB artiste Sire Ma "returned to work" for the first time today in public, dressed in a conservative trendy outfit for a Fall-Winter catwalk, being the news of the night.

No other jobs lined up for now

When Sire Ma accepted reporters' interview, she spoke of her mood these days and apologized to the media: "So sorry for making you guys do so much, thank you for your concern. Actually, I am very nervous today, but thanks to Elaine (Yiu) and my manager for encouraging me backstage. This job was already accepted a while back. As an artiste, I have to remain professional, so I attended today, and I will do my best. Of course I really have to thank the client and the company for not cancelling my jobs I had on hand because of the scandal. I am really grateful for this opportunity. (Do you have any future job plans?) I don't have any other jobs for now!"

As for rumours of Sire Ma temporarily moving back to Mainland to stay, she expressed: "Because my parents live in Mainland China, I also want to spend more time with them. The scandal made them very worried already, and affected a lot of people, my family, co-workers, friends, respected seniors, I'm really very sorry, sorry. (Does respected senior mean Damian Lau?) It actually affected a lot of people, not only Damian."

Afraid to read the news

Asked about ex-lover Wang Zi Qi said that Sire had sent the video to someone in the entertainment industry who is over 50 years old, Sire Ma immediately clarified: "I already said in my statement that I never had this video clip, nor did I send it to anyone. The police and the Hong Kong Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data are investigating this case. I beleive Hong Kong is a place of law and justice, they can protect me! (Are you really afraid of your sex affairs going public?) I don't dare read or watch any reports or interviews. I also told my friends not to show me. A wrong relationship turning into such a disaster, I have to take on the consequences myself. I am most sorry to the ones that love me having to worry about me."

Asked if she has any hatred for Wang Zi Qi and Laura, Sire did not directly respond, but only said: "I just want to use myself as an example and tell all girls that they must know how to protect themselves. I already learned a very big lesson, so you must be very careful when meeting friends. You must listen to your elderlies and your family's words, and not be stubborn. (Do you regret meeting this person?) I started to believe in Buddhism half a year ago, I believe a lot of things you have to admit your fate. The only thing I can do now is be myself and do well, and face the situation. (Did you start believing in Buddhism after the scandal?) No, it was in February, just a coincidence. (Wang Zi Qi said you initiated the dance yourself?) I won't be responding anymore, I believe in Buddhism, many things, you don't need to purposely find a result or answer to, because the result that comes itself will give you the answer."

Won't hurt herself: No matter how hard, I will continue enduring it

Sire Ma, who chose to bravely face everything, also expressed that she never once had suicidal thoughts: "This period of time has been very very hard, the hardest week to endure, I didn't listen or see anythikng, didn't think about anything, but I knew no matter what happens, I cannot hurt myself, because there are still many people who love and support me." She also revealed that starting January of this year, she had started seeing a psychiatrist: "Because I had depression before, this period of time was very hard to endure. (Are you still taking or added stronger medication?) I am taking medication that helps me calm my mood. (Then are you still in depression?) I never really looked into the symptoms, no matter how hard it is, I wll continue enduring it."

"Depended on my family this past half a year"

Asked how she will bear her living expenses after her jobs are stopped, Sire Ma immediately tried to hold back her tears and said: "I had to depend on my family this past half a year, I really thank them. (It was reported that you took 6,000,000 from Wang Zi Qi previously?) No comment. (Do you feel better after the prohibition order on the scandal photos?) I am really grateful for the lawyer and his team helping me on this so hard. (Paying the lawyer fees yourself?) My family will pay for me. (Job arrangements?) I will wait for the company's arrangements. I don't know how long I will take a break for. During this time, I will take a course and enrich my knowledge." In the end, Sire Ma emphasized that you must be on alert when meeting friends: "Listen to your family's advice. (Did your family disapprove of the relationship?) I was stubborn and self-absorbed, I am now very grateful for the people who support me."

It has only been two weeks since Lily Ho and Hinson Chou announced their relationship but it seemed that two weeks was enough for the couple to finally called it quits.

As reported on Mingpao News, a few days after the couple were seen locking lips at a furniture store, Lily revealed that she and the actor are no longer an item.

"As an artiste, I should be more careful about my behaviour in public," said Lily, who seemed to refer to the photos of them kissing.

She added, "I should know when to say no but I don't know how since I never experienced it before. My parents reprimanded me for the incident and I realised that I was also at fault."

The actress also denied that they broke up due to TVB's pressure and insisted that the two of them are still friends.

I love to run and swim and it should be fine as long as we do not exercise excessively and end up with ugly muscles."

Priscilla Wong (黃翠如) attended an event and when asked about if she will oppose working with her boyfriend, Edwin Siu (蕭正楠) as a couple, she said: "It is not very good temporarily....

Shirley added that she brought her daughter for swimming during the summer holidays as she was very hyperactive, and said: "She will say something to me whenever staying at home: 'Mummy, I want to go to school!' Otherwise, she will say again: 'Let's go swimming!'" She also disclosed that she spent near to million dollars on her daughter every month.
