Eliza Sam has been labelled as a new generation 'House Guy Goddess' because of a new series. When she went to an event [for "Divas in Distress"], she expressed that she is overwhelmed with gratitude; however, because Cantonese is not good enough, afraid of continuously NG-ing during filming and affecting job opportunities...rather sacrifice sleep to study hard at reciting lines. When asked if she was scolded by Liza Wang, who is in the same series, she said, "If you willingly ask for her advice, she would gladly share it with you...agree with her persistence on punctuality because it is a virtue".

Personal Note: He he.... I think of 'Hannah Banana' every time I see that yellow blazer! Love that colour! :P

Ha ha.... Gigi Jeh ended up being the female version of Wong Lo Fu! :P

"Extra" Clip

Yesterday morning, Julian Cheung was in Shek O filming an out-of-luck scene for "Triumph in the Skies II", having to film topless. The storyline was about the water supply being cut off while Julian was showering. He could only walk out with a towel covering his lower body. Unexpectedly, the door was locked on the inside...also encountering a group of housewives coming to borrow a phone. During the chaos, the towel came off, causing the housewives to shout 'pervert' and throw vegetables. When the reporters teased that the towel had a picture of a sexy girl in a T-back, he laughingly said, "The towel is my own! (When officially airing, the storyline says that you're naked after dropping the towel?) The director filmed many different angles, so I lowered the waist of the shorts and rolled up the pant leg!"

Yesterday, Ron Ng was doing location filming for the series. He will be going to Hainan Island, Taiwan, France, etc. to do location filming afterward; it could even be said to be rather strenuous. He said, "Can't do anything about it. In this series, I have many scenes with Myolie [Wu], Kenneth Ma, and Francis Ng, so the everyday filming has been rather tight. (You have a swim shorts look?) No need to. The storyline is about me playing beach volleyball! Okay to wear shorts!"

Personal Note: Ha ha.... Chi Lam has never been known for his body...the only time he toned up was for his concert! :P

Eliza Sam: Cheered Up by Stephen Chow's Comedies

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

2010 Miss Chinese International winner Eliza Sam has recently been noticed for her role as Heung Nai Hing in the series "Divas in Distress". Also, because of a wet scene, she has been labelled as a new generation 'Homebody Guy Goddess'. She, who hails from Vancouver, had dreamed of becoming a part of the entertainment industry since young; however, her family didn't approve of it too much. It was not until growing up and working in a bank that the ordinary lifestyle caused Eliza to be determined to do some special things to become decorated. Daringly competed in a pageant and won the title, and entered the entertainment industry. "Left my family for such a long period of time for the first time. At first, was not really accustomed to the Hong Kong culture. Also, everything was not familiar, and also did not know Chinese characters. Even did not know how to read road signs. At that time, I really regretted making the decision of coming to Hong Kong. Every day, would stay at home and cry. The only thing that made me happy was watching Stephen Chow and Sandra Ng's comedies to get through the days. Fortunately, got to know Leanne Li and Grace Wong. They also moved away from their hometown and moved somewhere else...particularly understand my feelings. It's thanks to them for accepting me as their friend that caused me to slowly become more accustomed".

Personal Note: It doesn't look like Eliza in that picture.

Really enjoying Eliza's performance in "Divas"...hope to see her in more series. :D

Chong Wai Kin's November Series Info

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

- 30 episodes long.
- The series will go from the Song Dynasty to the '50s and '60s, and then to the present...a love story that spans a thousand years.
- The female lead has been cursed to die three times in the hands of her beloved person.
- Bobby Au Yeung and Esther Kwan would be carrying the series from the beginning to the end; however there would also be other actors, such as Ben Wong, Ngo Ka Nin, etc.
- There will be location filming at a new filming studio in Foshan.

Esther Kwan: "You guys know so quickly. TVB has indeed discussed it with me, but really very preliminary. Heard the story...quite unique. I also like it very much. (They're using Bobby to tempt you to come back out?) This partner is indeed really captivating. Haven't played a pair with him since 'Armed Reaction'. Even in 'The Legendary Four Aces', it was only me and Nick...not a pair with him. Haven't collaborated for over ten years. Having a good partner is certainly very important, as we know each other's method. No need to spend time to try to find out...would be more comfortable. I also really want to collaborate with him; however, right now, it is only in the preliminary stages...still not confirmed to film yet".

Personal Note: Definitely hope for Esther to be in this! Would love to see Bobby and Esther reunite! :D

The 'dying three times' makes me think of the 2002 Sales Presentation clip 《三世書》, which starred Alex Fong, Jessica Hsuan, and Kwong Wa.

Personal Note: So many familiar costumes! :P

Not looking forward to this series, but hope that Sunny is playing a smart role this time around.

Lin Xia Wei must have taken over for Aimee Chan, who was supposed to film this series but was not able to take part, as she is still filming "A Great Way to Care II".

Wayne Lai Flying Solo for "Rosy Business III": Myolie Wu Replacing Sheren Tang

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

Lee Tim Sing: "I am just using the 'Rosy Business' franchise again. The story has no relations to the previous two installments".

Apart from the male lead, other members of the main cast, including Sheren Tang, Susan Tse, Ngo Ka Nin, etc. will not be in it.

Lee Tim Sing: "For 'Rosy III', I want to write a young people's love story. This time, the scriptwriters and I want to write about a first love. Every first love is very romantic and very thrilling. I think that new inspirations can come from this. I want to use a new group: Myolie Wu, Wayne Lai, and young siu sang Edwin Siu. The three of them will develop a romantic storyline under the setting of the Great Era".

Lee Tim Sing: "Myolie is the fa dan I want the most! Actually, her acting has always been quite good, but there are some areas in which no one has pointed out to her. Once on set, her 'expending effort' becomes a little too much. In 'Rosy III', I will help her restrain a bit...if a little more implicit, acting will look a lot better".

Lee Tim Sing: "It's very difficult to book Myolie's schedule in advance. This time is our first collaboration. Hope that, in my hands, Myolie will have a different colouration. She already expressed to me that she is very willing and anticipating this time's collaboration".

So much for using female newcomers....

Last night, when Kenneth Ma attended an event, he expressed that he is currently saving up to change houses. When asked that it was rumoured that Tavia Yeung has bought a big house (one step faster than he is), Kenneth congratulated Tavia after hearing this, but feels that buying a flat has no relations with fast or slow. He said, "I even feel that it is similar to choosing a wife. May live in a house for ten or twenty years, or even until the day that I die. I feel that it must be very suitable and must like it before able to do so".
