Jul 5, 2010 Author: tvbgossip | Filed under: Alvina Kong, Angela Tong

Earlier at Angela Tong’s birthday party, because of one of the guests Alvina Kong’s comment: “They already broke up” (Referring to Chin Ka Lok and Angela Tong), stirred up rumors that they broke up. Last night, Angela and Alvina attended a World Cup shopping mall event and were not embarrassed to see each other and requested for a group photo. Alvina explained again that the comment was just a joke. She also called Angela afterwards and apologize, and strongly insisted that Chin Ka Lok is not upset with her.

When reporters asked Angela if their relationship is stabled? She only laughed: “I never said anything, I’m very happy now!” Later reporters teased her again saying that she and Chin Ka Lok have going through another obstacle in their relationship, Angela vigorously shook her head. Reporters asked again if they broke up? She said: “Just say however you guys like to say it. (What did he give you for your birthday?) Giving gifts does not necessary have to be on the actual birthday, usually even after I saw the gift, can still give it. (You already saw it?) Nothing special, I’m not greedy.”

Barbie Hsu denied face and nose plastic surgery

Jun 30, 2010 Author: tvbgossip | Filed under: Barbie Hsu

Netizens have been buzzing about the fact that Da S’s wide eyes, high nose and pointy chin in “Summer’s Desire” is a far cry from her single lidded, small-nosed, and round-chinned appearance 10 years ago in “Meteor Garden”. Da S responded by posting an old photo on her Weibo, and added “If you say I’ve become prettier, I won’t deny it, but if you say I had plastic surgery, that’s complete nonsense! This is a photo of Mavis Fan, Xiao S and I from 12 years ago, my face shape and nose are the same… the only thing different is in the makeup and expression. If I really had plastic surgery, I wouldn’t dare publish ‘Mei Rong Da Wang’! Some netizens….”

Yesterday, Xiao S said that Da S’s chin is a family trait. “Our whole family has long chins like that, just take a look at me, my grandma, my dad, and my nephew Xiao Mi Ke. ASOS has always been gearing up through getting prettier and prettier, even we are scared of how much prettier we can get.” To rumours that Da S is planning to buy a house in the Xin Yi district, Xiao S answered that Da S has to work hard acting, “And now that the family has a new member (Xiao Mi Ke), she decided to buy a more comfortable house, so that it’s worth the hard work.”

Andy Lau invested in film “Fight to Win”

Jun 2, 2010 Author: tvbgossip | Filed under: Andy Lau

Andy Lau’s new invested film held its premiere last night, Andy expressed that he hopes the film can make 5-6 million in the box office. Producer Gordon Lam interrupted: “If its less than 5-6 million then I will never act again.” Andy was very concerned and told Gordon to take back what he said. Later, Gordon asked why Andy’s so modest to set a goal of just 5-6 million? Andy said: “5-6 million is already pretty high, more than 10 million is impossible. In a situation, a person knows how high they can go, have to know their place. This movie is not a grand production produced by a known producer, director or classy actors. It is just a movie with junior level actors and a new director. Receiving 2-3 million is already very good.” What’s the payback then? This movie will play in Mainland where an estimate revenue of 20 million yuan, earn some profits there.
