Raymond Lam: Your Love showcase in Malaysia
Sunday October 26, 2008 Hong Kong

Late again for Malaysian promotion, Fung apologises to the media

Fung is in Malaysia again promoting his album, he was late again for about an hour. Afterwards he immediately apologised to the media explaining it was because of a traffic jam.

Last time when Fung was in Malaysia promoting an album, he was late for about an hour. This time to promote his new album “Your Love”, he was late for the press conference again for about an hour and 15 minutes. The press conference was schedule to start at 3pm and Fung only arrived at 4.15pm.

After the media finished their interviews, Fung explained it took 45 minutes from his hotel to the press conference, which was why he was late. But according to those in the know, the conference was scheduled to start at 3pm, but after 3pm Fung was still at the hotel. As to why he was late, Fung explained it was because of bad traffic.


Like girls who can sing
When asked whether he is eager to hold a concert, he said this is the goal for every singer. But he is not very good at remembering lyrics, so he will try to improve. The host said, “Emil Chow often forgets his lyrics!” Fung said, “Being a singer can’t be like this (forgetting lyrics)!”

In the album, Fung sings a duet with Vincy Chan “After Tomorrow”. He smiled and said working with different female singers will have different effects. The media asked him, is Vincy the type of girl he likes? He simply answered, “Vincy is quite obedient! I prefer girls who can sing.”

Viewing the “TV King” fights normally
About news on the fight for TV King, Fung said he is not taking these news to heart. (viewing it normally). He also believes TVB’s actors all portray their roles very seriously, and not acting because of fighting for awards.

The press conference not only invited members of the media, there were also many sponsors and fans. When the host allowed the media to ask questions, a man surprisingly asked Fung to tell him the ending of “The Four”, because he needed to attend his function and cannot watch “The Four”’s ending. Even though this is the case, Fung only said, “I don’t quite remember the ending!”

The microphone was often not working, Fung: Don’t play me
During Fung’s “Your Love” showcase, the audio and microphone had a lot of problems. Fung even had to keep the peace, so the showcase can continue.

The first of the “Your Love” showcase was held on Friday night, 8:30pm at the entrance of the Pavillion. This showcase attracted about 1000 fans’ support. Even though Fung was not feeling well, he sang three songs, including “Lover and Sea”, a duet with Vincy “After Tomorrow” and the hit song “Love with no regrets”.

The unfortunate thing was that the audio had lots of problems, sometimes the microphone was working and sometimes it was not. This affected the showcase. Since the microphone was having problems, Fung smiled and said in the end, “I’m not familiar with you, don’t play me like this!”

Sweating while singing duet with Vincy
The only time when the microphone was working property was when Fung was singing with Vincy. Their singing attracted many fans’ applause. After the song they also hugged each other. Fung also joked, “singing with Vincy made me sweat!”

After Fung sang “Love with no regrets”, the autograph session began. Unexpectedly, the host’s microphone was not working, she had to shout the instructions, but it didn’t quite work.

Comment : Raymond looks soo cuteee =) he is so HOT! and love his voice so much. I just brought his album (2nd) and love it soo much...! he soo cuteeee. Hopefully he can make more songs and act in more movies and tvb shows again =) Also hope he gets one of the awards for best acting =) Really loved his performances from Moonlight Resonance and Heart of Greed also other series he did. He so cute with long hair! hehe. but yeah. Raymond Raymond Raymond is sooo cutee and Hot!. haha. but yeah. Lam Fung forever! =P

Gosh...today ish the last day of the week that I will work until next week I start over again...=T. Gosh work been so tireding and busy..that I barely have much time to sleep...sighs..anyways today was such a busy day..not much pple come in and out but when they do seems like everyone comes in to eat all at the same time and mostly we get busy..other then that it justs gets tireding and boring with not much customers around..=T. anyways yeah..lately I also made couple of dollars while working...and turned out I have saved almost 50$ in my little piggy bank since the last time I started to work...and been almost bout a month or 2 now..wow thats somewhat good..for starters who ended up in the beginning with no money in pocket and earned alot..in about month and half..(well in my opinion.) anyways yeah..also I kinda lost track of viewing movies..for some reason i felt so bored that I almost listen to MVs so much now that I lost track of what I was viewing on TVB just like I used to..but yeah..guess after I been working, things got little off hand for me..but oh wells..anyways for now I just feel like the month went by so fast already heading on the last week of October...=) haha cant wait till vacation soon.

Tearful Gigi Lai Announces Retirement

20 October 2008
Emma Lam

TVB's entertainment magazine programme Scoop <東張西望> held a special premiere event for the airing of the first episode of grand production The Gem Of Life <珠光寶氣> this evening. Among the cast members taking part were Gigi Lai (黎姿), Lee Si Kei (李司棋), Ada Choi (蔡少芬), Moses Chan (陳豪), Maggie Siu (邵美琪) and Bowie Lam (林保怡).

During the show, Gigi made a surprise announcement that she will be retiring from showbiz so that she can concentrate on looking after her brother's business and caring for her family. She said that Gem will be her last performance in a series and her interview on Scoop will be her last formal appearance.

Asked if she was making this decision because she plans to get married, Gigi said that this was not the case. As for whether or not she still has any contractual obligations with TVB, she pointed out that she will always be a TVB person, regardless of any contracts between them.

When Gigi was asked how long it had taken her to reach this decision, she replied that she had thought about it when she first started filming for Gem and then some other incidents that she did not want to talk about also swayed her decision. She said that she felt an obligation to fulfil her duties to help promote this series, so she has waited until this work was completed before she made this announcement.

After giving almost three decades of her life to the entertainment industry, Gigi said that she would like to take some time out to pursue her own interests, such as studying and spending time with her family. She explained that she could not balance running the business with her acting work, so she had to give up one of her jobs.

Gigi thanked the support given to her by her co-stars, especially Ada, Maggie and Si Kei, during the difficult times when her brother Stephen (黎嬰) suffered horrific injuries in a road accident. When she spoke about her brother, Gigi became quite emotional and began to cry, making Ada quite teary too.

Ada said that Gigi will be missed by everyone, but the most important thing was for her to be happy. She added that she felt privileged to have filmed several series with her and she sees Gigi as a sister.

Other co-stars also supported Gigi's decision and Moses said that he admired her for her courage and strength through such difficult times and he wished her every happiness.

Si Kei was quite shocked when she saw Gigi crying because she did not know what was happening. She praised Gigi for being a very remarkable woman, who is extremely dedicated to her family, so she will always look out for Gigi.

The 80-episode Gem premiered today in Hong Kong and will run until February 2009.


Comments : Even though I'm not really a Gigi fan, I find it kinda shock a bit that Gigi will retire from TVB. She had entered the industry as if it was just few years ago and up to now seeing her on the big screen have been quite good. From the day she entered the industry till now, she has still been able to stay the way she is : beautiful, pretty and nice. I find it quite well too that she retired saying she will help her family out with business and such. Hopefully Gigi and her family can be well. Wishing them the best. Ada as well have been beside her and cried during the little interview. She had supported Gigi and had been by Gigis side for all these years. Hopefully Gigi will suceed and hopefully she'll come back to TVB soon. The Gem of Life will be her last series before she retires. She acted pretty well so far in the series and yet more to be seen Hopefully it gets good. =) Want to wish Gigi luck and best of wishes to her and her family. TVB will always support her.

Raymond Lam (林峯)'s record company bosses at EEG laid on a special celebratory party for him yesterday, where CEO Ng Yu (吳雨) presented him with a platinum disc for selling over 30,000 copies of his second album Your Love. An abalone banquet was also laid on for the friends and colleagues and among the guests at the event were TVB executives Stephen Chan (陳志雲) and Virginia Lok (樂易玲) as well as Raymond's duet partner Vincy Chan (泳兒).

With sales of this new record far exceeding his debut album that only reached gold disc status, Raymond expressed his surprise and thanked both EEG and TVB for supporting him in his musical career. When it was pointed out that both companies are really looking after him, he smiled that he will work even harder to repay their kindness and is already preparing for his third album.

Raymond was asked when he will be giving his first solo concert and he replied that he would love to put on such a show, but after just two albums, he does not have enough songs yet, so he will take things a step at a time.

Virginia was asked to comment on the recent rumours that Kevin Cheng (鄭嘉穎) is dating six women at the same time and she laughed that this was impossible and joked that Raymond was probably more attractive to the ladies. Ng Yu joined the conversation laughing that Virginia could be "number seven", but she retorted that she was more like his mother. She added that if he was interested in playing the next "Wai Siu Bo" character from the Duke of Mount Deer <鹿鼎記> novels, he could apply, but she did not think he was the right personality for the role.

Comments : I really love Raymond and I congratulate him for getting the Platinum thing. =) He really deserves it. He always wanted to be a singer and now his wish came true. Since 1998, Ray have been entering the entertainment circle for quite about almost 10 years now and he starting to become a good role model to many fans of his. His songs are off the charts (highly attractive) and he is also the best actors of the TVB world. I really love his acting and singing. He has tried so much to get where he is now..so yeah. Congratulate to Ray!. Hopefully his new albums will be better and better in near future =)
Gosh he soo hot and cutee with such talent and cuteee singing deep voice =)

I recently finished rewatching "A Taste of Love" series for the 2nd time..and yet its still cool =) For this series, It Ray first time as a big minor role in the series. He plays Floras' little step brother. Who they both are kids of the same father but different Mother. Ray character is more childish and does things in his own ways. He loves to play, hangout with friends and do things around the house kiddishly. Seeing him for first time on screen back then when i first watched the series didnt really impress me much..but after seeing his shows and dramas even listening to his songs made me such a big fan to him. (Gosh I wished he visit NY or wherever I am..so I can ask for his autograph and get his poster =) ) keke..anyways yeah. Well Ray in the series is very cute. He is one of the student chefs where his father owns a seafood restaurant in one of the areas in Hong Kong. His father was one of the best known cooks in his hometown. And now seeing Ray being the next head chef of the restaurant, He tries to follow his dads' dream and tends to fullfill the dream his dad left him by leaving the restaurant for him and his older sister (Flora) to handle. At first, he didnt know that Flora was his older step sister until one day when he found out himself..he then knew. But yeah anyways along the way of the series, he meets Candy (Miriam Yeung) and they both have arguements and get into little fights that lead them into being friendly and dating. (gosh such cute couple ) but yeah..anyway here are some screen captures of Ray when he first appeared in the series::

ARTISTE SPOTLIGHT




All About Ray - Raymond Lam

Shedding from the “youthful boy” to the “sophisticated man”, Raymond’s image in the “All About Men” album displays another side to this versatile actor, but can it also mean another path to his blossoming career.




Raymond’s start

Currently at the age of 25, standing at 5’11, Raymond Lam started his acting career at the early age of 19, his first step into the entertainment circle began when he signed up for TVB’s 13th annual acting class. After graduating from the course, his first offer was a host for a Mandarin-based program. Not long after, he was given rather minor roles in series like “Life for Life”, “Incurable Traits”, and “At the Threshold of an Era.” His first break came when he was offered a role in “A Taste of Love” starring as the young and stubborn “Ha Tau” opposite Lawrence Ng and Flora Chan.

Dubbed as the “Louis Koo look-a-like”, Raymond was offered more major roles such as in “A Step into the Past” opposite Louis Koo himself, and “Golden Faith” opposite TVB’s leading man Gallen Lo. Soon, he began to take on his own male lead roles in series such as “Eternal Happiness”, “Lofty Waters Verdant Bow”, and “Survivor’s Law”. Winning the “Most Improved Male Actor” in TVB’s 2003 Anniversary for his role as the “big brother” Ben Lok in “Survivor’s Law”, Raymond was finally getting recognized for his performance. But it was not until his role as the ambitious and determined Kau Jung in “Twin of Brothers” did Raymond receive the general acceptance from the audience, gaining him the award of “Most Favorite Character” in TVB’s 2004 Anniversary.

Raymond then goes on to continue to film upcoming series such as “Lethal Weapons of Love and Passion”, “Yummy Yummy”, and the soon to be filmed “Simple Soothsayer”. “Lethal Weapons of Love and Passion” is the second grand-production of TVB to be filmed entirely outdoors and in real backdrop following “Twin of Brothers”, defining Raymond’s role as TVB’s ambassador in the Mainland.

Known to be the “King of Ancient Costume” Raymond has filmed several ancient series and has spent a great deal of his time in Mainland. Though he does look dashing in ancient costumes, Raymond actually prefers to film modern series, and is hoping in the time to come to be able to film more modern series for the audience to see.




Another break

Though never having released his own album, Raymond is known for his masculine and captivating voice. Having studied music in his school years, Raymond’s first taste of the music world started when he sang the themesong “If You were Here” for his first movie “Stolen Love’” opposite up and comer female singer Rain Lee in 2001. From there he has sang in a few children’s song for the children’s channel before breaking into singing for series in his first sub song “Remember to Forget” for his first male lead series “Eternal Happiness”. Attracting many with his soothing voice, Raymond began singing themesongs for his own series such as “Lofty Waters Verdant Bow”, “Survivor’s Law”, “Twin of Brothers”, and my personal favorite “The Last Breakthrough”. As well, Raymond has sung for multiple events such as the “SARS Foundation” and the “2004 Olympic Games”.

His “Survivor’s Law” themesong “Forget the Pain” gained him an award for “Most Favorite Themesong” at the annual Astro awards celebration. His latest release is the sub song for costume drama “Lethal Weapons of Love and Passion” titled “Realize”. Hitting the “Jade Solid Gold” charts with this song, it can be seen that there are to be many more songs to be heard from Raymond, and hopefully the release of his own solo album.
Along the Journey

Raymond is seen to be the successor to his father’s expanding architect business. Having been studying abroad for University in First Year, majoring in Architecture and taking a minor in Music, Raymond finally decided to follow his interest in entertainment and joined the TVB Corporation.

Having gone through each step of the way into becoming one of TVB’s leading man, not all was smooth sailing from there. As he began to rise in the entertainment circle, rumors came and plagued along with him. Attached to several rumors of relationships with his female co-stars in the entertainment circle such as Rain Lee, Michelle Yip, and Myolie Wu, Raymond does not allow empty rumors to affect his professional attitude towards his work, and his caring attitude towards his friends and co-stars.

Constantly being labeled as a “siu ye” coming from a wealthy family, it seems as if Raymond’s background is over-shadowing his abilities. But being persistent in proving otherwise, Raymond continued to put in his full effort and heart into acting, and has now stepped out from that label.

Though there are many speculations that he is expected to leave the entertainment circle at the age of 30 to assist his father in the family business, there are yet to be a solid confirmation, and time that can make its alterations.

Omgsh...I feel so bit pissed and sad. why? cause lately after I moved or been up here, things started to get a bit busy and hecktic. First, when I got to Maine and work, It was going so fine and swell, until one of my co-worker Dave comes along and gets hired for a Delivery job cause the restaurant needed someone to deliver for the seasonal Holidays..Well yeah anyways..He been doing a lot of helping around..but the thing is..he always gets on my nerves..for example, he would always butt into situations and conversations that has totally nothing to do with him at all..and then starts to give comments and take things for granted..another thing is that he would always suggest and tell people how to do this and that when for me i think..."who are you to tell us or whoever what to do?"...<-gosh that got me so mad whenever he says this..thinking he all hot shot and what not..when im thinking.." your not the boss..so stop telling us how to not do and what to do when comes to decision making...but yeah...another bad thing is that he always takes about half hour to an hour for a delivery..and when he gets back..he would always make up excuses...yet im thinking.."psh yeah right." but yeah...[Im kinda mad at him and all and dont like him at all..evern the people who work at the restaurant too...yet we all hate him..] Another thing that got me bit mad and disappointed was my mom...recently we been talking alot and whenever she talks she mentions about the dog we live with..'Chowbee' For some reason Im getting annoyed when hearing his name. [not to say I hate him or jealous of him..but hearing his name almost 24/7 and in each conversation me and my mom does..make me want to like ignore her and tell her not to talk about the dog...]so yeah..It not that I hate dogs or anything just that..Im not used to likeing dogs or cats much often..I yet rather stare and stay or talk about little children then pets...but yeah...after work today..I went with my mom to buy some dog food..yet again..the annoying thing came up is 'ChowBee' Gosh not to be rude and all to my mom..but talking about him does make me feel kind of Jealous. I mean..talking about him once and while nice ..but mentioning all the time..is quite annoying for me...so yeah...I would feel kind of jealous if someone talks bout their pets then their human friends or what not especially if it their relative. meaning in my case..I feel jealous that my mom never mentions much about me..and mentions and cares more for the dog then me..the annoying thing is that...the dog is being mentioned much. I kinda feel sick of the dog now...he is cute and cuddly sometimes..but having him around and hearing alot about him coming out of my mom is somewhat annoying to me...=T. so yeah..
Anyways aside from that..not much happened except for work and money earning..=)
well yeah..Ill update more later on in the week when have chance..for now Im off to bed.
Good night.
PS. Like my new layout? this time it yet Raymond Lam again =)
Love him soo muchiiee =)
To my friends and family in NY: Take care and best of luck =)

Gosh today the 6th day of October and already soon going to be near middle of October. Well recently, At work, I have been around work and not much things happened..as always, I been either at Home, Work and back. So yeah. Well been almost 1 and 1/2 months I have been here in Maine. This place is a quiet one and not much things have happened. For some reason, I feel like once I left, everything and everyone has changed. Seeing from most results, Most of the people I know have been doing their own things and been going their own ways around. Recently, I have spoken to my friends and catching up with them. From the tone of the calls, everyone seems like they all been changing. I just wonder, is it how life goes that makes us all change or is it us ourselves that change?...but yeah. Gosh I felt so sad and disappointed today..cause I found out that I wouldn't be able to go back to NY as planned next week cause My mom told me that I need to work and need to help around...but yeah...Though, I dont blame her cause it true that the restaurant that I have doing, I have been lately and tired. Doing Restaurant is really hard, tireding and yeah...=T. But anyways...when I planned to go to NY next week supposedly, I was going to call my old friends and buddies out..and chill with them, but yeah. I really hoped to go back to NY and visit everyone again. I really missed my friends, family and relatives in NY. Been while not seeing them for quite a while..but yeah...anyways aside from that, I have taken some cool nice pics of myself. Ill be uploading some later on in the week..so yeah. I guess next time I will be going back to NY will be around Chinese New Year. [Which like January.] Gosh, that long way to go...=T. but yeah..hope it comes soon =) but yeah. Recently also, I been doing alot of Moving, and lately I been helping my mom and uncle move around the house and packing..omg..i say..it going to be last, and final time Ill be moving...(5th time) and yet i say Final, I mean it. I am like sick of moving...>< I hate it. but hopefully it be the last time. ><. so yeah.
Well anyways I'm off to bed now..good night =D

Synopsis
You may wish to be a famous socialite.
You may wish to have fame and fortune.
But is that really what you will wish for at the end?

In Pak Siu Yau’s (Louise Lee See Kei) eyes, her three daughters are just as perfect as diamonds. She believes that the greatest blessing for a woman is to marry a wealthy man. To guarantee a better life for her daughters, she has started training the girls since they were young, hoping that they will marry into the richest families when they mature.

Yau’s first daughter Hong Nga Yin (Maggie Shiu Mei Kei) does not agree with her values. Yet when she sees that the man Yin is going out with is Ko Cheung Sing (Bowie Lam Bo Yi), who is very well-off, she decides to let Yin go with her choice. Yau’s second daughter Hong Nga Tung (Gigi Lai Chi) is hopelessly romantic but does not seem to have much luck with men. To make it up to her, Yau seeks to match her up with Ho Chit Nam (Moses Chan Ho), the son of Hong Kong’s most powerful business tycoon Ho Fung (Ngok Wah). Being the youngest in the family, Hong Nga Sze (Ada Choi Siu Fan) is well aware of Yau’s concerns. Having recovered from divorce, Sze now decides to pin all her hopes on Fung.

Yau’s persistence pays off and her daughters have all found a wealthy husband, but money does not really bring them happiness and the sisters are gradually losing themselves in vanity…

My comments:
From what I see..I have feeling This will be one of the bestest shows in 2009. since it like 80 episodes long, I have another feeling the casts will be successful at playing this series. When I first looked at the trailers, I found this show to be alot classy and lots of riches and family fortune that they will all share. Mainly from the synopsis, this drama will show alot of selfishness, greedyness, and pain around LSK family and daughters. When I saw the trailors I felt bad for LSK cause of the way she went through alot for her daughters and I was glad seeing Ada and Maggie also Bowie (well mainly the old tvb series 'Healing Hands' cast have all come together again to film this =) but yeah...anyways hope it is a great hit and seeing all the veteran actors and actresses along with the new ones are very freshy...Either way..I really hope to see this drama and hope itll be a big success.

As the family are back together, it should be a happy occasion, but Wong and Mei do not know how to explain to Fung about his background. Sum is not pleased with Fung's lazy attitude and Fung does not like Sum either.

Yesterday was such a rough day. In the morning as I was getting ready to go to work, My mom and her bf started argueing about work related things. They had such a big arguement that I saw my Mom actually shed into tears. =(. I started to feel the crying and made myself cry as well. I just cant figure it out..why I would always cry when I see other people cry?..it like I actually feel their pain or something..but I dont know..=T. Just that I never seen my mom cry before and seeing her cry made my heart ache. =(. I didnt want to see her cry but I did and I actually teared. First time seeing my Mom cry and seeing her argue in a big arguement. I was going to actually stop the arguement but I didn't I was going to stand up and say " stop argueing.." but I didnt...but yeah. Just that I dont like seeing anyone argue with another over stupid little things...I find it useless when they do argue and such. But yeah. Anyways aside from that, My day was completely tireding...and painful.. the whole day I felt my gums and jaw started to get pain and felt like my jaw was about to pop out. I think it was because of the eating much junkfood and fried things that made my jaw get bit swollen. I just felt so sick a bit that My jaw ached, sore throat and a lot of coughing. Gosh Hope my throat, Jaw and whatever I feel pain or aching in can stop. Cause I dont want to feel much of it anymore..='(

My thoughts : This year Nominations are very bad...from the looks on the list only Raymond Lam, Ha Yu Moses Chan, Linda Chung,Tavia Yeung, Fala Chan, Lee Heung Kam, Susana Kwan, Lee Sze Kei are the only ones I like best and guess what?...THEY ARE ALL FROM MOONLIGHT. <--Top Favorite drama of the year. Every other actors/actresses are good too but Moonlight is the only drama series with the best cast that on my list for now. Every other shows are nice too..but I think Moonlight is the only one that caught my attention more. Since yeah..it a grand production series and most pple like it. so yeah. Anyways right now Im watching Last One Standing and The Four..but I find Last One Standing more better then The Four. Cause the Four is good too..but didnt really kept my attention...so I stopped watching...so yeah..hopefully In future more good dramatic shows will appear for us viewers =0
