The Very Adorable Kenneth Ma

"Strictly Come Dancing II" Official Pairings

Before they announced the official pairings, they played a game where all the remaining 18 contestants wrote down on a sign who they would like to pair up with. When the Hunan host asked Timmy Hung to reveal who he would like to pair up with, he picked Hunan's Chen Lu. Then Astrid Chan went to Chen Lu to see if she also chose Timmy to be her partner.

Chen Lu: Can I change mine?

Astrid Chan: You can't anymore. So you think the one you chose is better than Timmy?

Chen Lu: No, I think the one I chose is quite tall and quite strong.

Hunan host: Timmy is also tall and strong, isn't he?

Astrid Chan: No, no, because our HK team also has Kenneth Ma! Right?

Chen Lu then revealed that she indeed chose Kenneth.

Then the Hunan host went to Kenneth to see whom he had chosen. Kenneth said that he also wanted to choose Chen Lu, but Timmy already chose her and would not let him choose her, too, so Kenneth chose another girl from the Hunan side.

Later, Christine Ng was asked to reveal whom she had chosen.

Astrid Chan: Why do you look like this? Why? (she takes a peak at Christine's sign) Why did you choose him?

Christine: I don't know.

Astrid Chan: No, you must have a reason.

Christine: Him? Because he's adorable.

Astrid Chan: Yes, he is very adorable, and he always helps his friends. Just because his friend already chose his preferred dance partner doesn't mean that he also cannot choose that person as his partner. Silly boy!

Christine then revealed that she also chose Kenneth. Kenneth was really surprised at Christine's choice. At that time, Kenneth had already taken Timmy's sign, since Chen Lu chose him as her ideal partner.

Hunan host: You're really popular today, eh?

When they were announcing Chen Lu's official partner, Kenneth moved behind her even though he was already officially paired off. Kenneth stood behind Chen Lu for a few seconds until Grace Wong pushed him back to his official partner.

Note: All the TVB guys planned ahead of time to choose one of the girls from the Hunan side as their preferred partner.
