Fala Chen Nominated for 'Best Newcomer" @ 29th Hong Kong Film Awards

The nomination list for the 29th Hong Kong Film Awards were announced yesterday; however, a mistake was made. The HKFA Association announced that nominee Wang Bo Jie for "Bodyguards and Assassins" was already in 2008's "Winds of September". Therefore, his nomination will be eliminated. After a brief meeting, the HKFA Association decided to have Fala Chen (the person sixth in votes) replace Wang Bo Jie as a final nominee for 'Best Newcomer'.

The final top five for 'Best Newcomer' is as follows (in order of Chinese last name brush strokes):

1. Chris Li "Bodyguards And Assassins"
2. Oceane Zhu "Prince of Tears"
3. Aarif Rahman "Echoes of the Rainbow"
4. Fala Chen "Turning Point"
5. Buzz Chung "Echoes of the Rainbow"

Summary:

Fala Chen was at a jewellery event yesterday, and when she was asked about her rumour regarding wedding pictures, Fala smiled and said, "It's an advertisement for wedding pictures, and I will be taking them with Steven Ma. (Will you ask your boyfriend to take part in the picture?) No, as the the contract states it will be with Steven Ma".

As for Marie Zhuge's 'not letting go words' regarding Fala's rumoured marriage, Fala said, "I will not answer, as I have already replied. I do not want to reply to any questions about Miss Zhuge. (Did Mother Sit give orders for you to seal your lips?) Nobody told me to not say anything. Do not make false accusations".

Marie Zhuge expressed earlier that she would not keep her marriage a secret. Fala agrees that marriage is a big part of life, and it will need a great deal of planning. (When are you planning to get married?) Fala said, "It needs planning, as it is a very important decision because it will involve many people, and it is not a one-person matter. It will certainly need a great deal of planning. (Will you get married this year?) Don't know, but it will definitely be glamorous, as it will one of life's most beautiful moments".

On the other hand, Marie Zhuge was at an event in Habour City, and she seemed well-prepared during the interview. She said, "I will no longer respond to false and exaggerating reports. I will just laugh after reading them. It is most important to celebrate the new year happily. If there is anything that I've done poorly, I will do better in the future. (Did someone from behind tell you to seal your lips?) I will no longer respond. I only want the elderly to be happy".

FYI: Marie Zhuge is a rich girl model. Her boyfriend is Fala's boyfriend's younger brother.

Personal Note: It seems like Zhuge will be silent for a while now. Ha ha.... ;)
