In the past, Michelle and Raymond collaborated in TVB series Lofty Waters Verdant Bow and Eternal Happiness, but since Michelle left TVB, the two rarely intersected. Michelle expressed although she rarely kept in touch with Raymond in the last 10 years, but when she was looking for a lead actor to be in this series, her old partner "Raymond Lam" was the first person to come to mind. "Raymond looks very noble, elegant and unconventional in costume dramas, and he really fits the 'Wong Sam Hak' role. He was my first choice." Raymond also expressed, despite their busy schedules, it's a rare opportunity that they could collaborate again.

It's not too intense though." As for ex-lover Myolie Wu and Kate Tsui battling for TV Queen, asked who he supports? Bosco said: "Myolie! She has a good chance, she did very well in Ghetto Justice II. If she does win, I will congratulate her!" However, Bosco also said if Kate or any one else gets the award instead, he'll be happy for them as well, "They are all my friends, I'll be happy for them!" When speaking of his chances for the TV King title? He said: "Every year, I don't have much confidence, but this year the competitors are so strong."

When speaking of the kiss scenes with Bosco? She said: "We collaborate pleasantly and able to accommodate. We're friends, so there's no awkwardness!"

Kenneth Ma Rushes to the Bridal Chamber with Rebecca Zhu 

Yesterday Damian Lau, Tavia Yeung, Ron Ng, Kenneth Ma, Rebecca Zhu, Vincent Wong, Jess Shum and the other cast of TVB anniversary series Silver Spoon, Sterling Shacklestook part in the promotional event. The three couples from the series were dressed in wedding attire. When Kenneth read out the marriage vow to Rebecca, he frankly expressed he's in a rush to go to the 'bridal chamber' (洞房) and then joked to his 'love rival' Ron Ng, "I get her body, you get her heart!" This left Ron in embarrassment. During the games, the grooms were blindfolded and had to guess who their bride was by feeling their hands. Kenneth appeared very antsy, no matter if it was a man or woman, he grabbed everybody's hand to touch. In the end, Kenneth successfully guessed who Rebecca was just by feeling her pair of hands. 

Tavia attended the promotion with a leg injury, but when she changed into the wedding dress, she still displayed a blessed look on her face. She expressed although she has worn wedding dresses several times, she is still looking forward to her future marriage, "When I was younger, I envisioned myself getting married and having children at age 25, but now I don't really think about it anymore. Leave it all to fate. A life with just two people isn't bad either." Tavia believed children aren't used to keep her other half. When asked if she has met her Mr. Right yet? Tavia said: "I hope. (Him Law?) Still in the observation stage, need some time to get to know him more. Work is the priority now." When speaking of Him's recent rumor with a girl from Beijing? Tavia casts her vote of trust for him, "I just think this is fabricated news. There is no need to ask or mention it. It's old news, nothing special. This month is 'fabricated news month'. After all, he is a person worth my trust." 

Jess Shum was spotted on a date with her new wealthy boyfriend. She smiled and said since youth, she spends a lot of time dreaming of her future wedding, but she and her boyfriend just started dating, so there are no plans for marriage yet. 

Also, it's been a while since 'Siu Long Lui' Idy Chan has participated in a TV series. She hoped everyone will not think too excessively of the old times, she said: "Siu Long Lui is too long ago, I'm not at the suitable age to be her anymore. Nobody should be out of touch with reality, it's not practical!" 

Just For Fun
Tavia asked on Weibo: "Who do I match most with?" (Damien, Ron, Ben or Kenneth)

Bosco Wong films awkwardly with Myolie's close friend Mandy Wong 

This is Bosco Wong and Myolie Wu's first Mid-Autumn Festival after their break up. Busy working on their own jobs, Bosco is currently focused entirely on shooting for his new seriesA Good Heart Goes Haywire where he works with Myolie's close friend Mandy Wong. 

Last night, Bosco, Mandy and Vincent Wong were shooting a scene by the harbor. The scene was about the three of them as good friends, chatting by the harbor. It appeared Mandy had a secret she was hiding from the other two, so Bosco and Vincent pretended to push her into the water attempting to force her speak the truth. Although the filming location was a quiet area, Bosco still had fans waiting to see him. There were also a lot of onlookers. There was one fan girl who wanted to take pictures with Bosco, but unfortunately each time she approached him at the wrong time, when the cameras were rolling and Bosco was forced to politely decline. When the cameras stopped rolling, he took initiative and walked up to take a picture with her. The fan felt so loved! 

Earlier a magazine reported Myolie Wu and her close friends including Mandy Wong and Nancy Wu were badmouthing Bosco together. Collaborating with her good friend's ex-boyfriend, Mandy felt a little awkward. Off cameras, Bosco and Mandy had no interaction. Bosco only chatted with Vincent, while Mandy sat alone to the side. It was understood, Myolie's other good friend, Elaine Yiu, is also in this series, but she knows Bosco more and didn't feel awkward around him. 

Back to being single, Myolie is often having parties with her friends and often posts the pictures on Weibo. She is actively preparing herself for a new relationship.

Linda Chung finds her 4 year long lost lookalike "brother" Wu Chun

Linda Chung and Wu Chun "looks exactly like siblings" had been a hot topic for a full four years already. Yesterday, the the 'siblings' met for the first time at the MARC BY MARC JACOBS store opening ceremony. When Linda and Wu Chun stood next to each other, they looked 90% alike. They were about the same height, had the same sharp face shape, high nose and small lips. The only difference was Wu Chun was darker than Linda. Linda, nicknamed 'Wu Chun's female version', laughed in excitement once she saw her 'brother'. She gave him a cake to celebrate his birthday next week, "This has been talked about for 4 years, now we finally meet! It's just like I found my long lost brother. The bottom half of our face looks alike, for example the nose, chin and small lips. Just thinking of it makes me laugh." 

Initially Linda's hair looked similar to a fringe cut and would have matched Wu Chun's hairstyle, but unfortunately her dress didn't match that hairstyle. She said, "When I was shootingA Watchdog's Tale, I had a short hair wig on, and when I was out on the street, people mistaken me for Wu Chun! I've thought of cutting my hair short too, but I was afraid I may look too much like him, so I didn't get it. Friends also think we look very much alike, even for myself, I am starting to wonder if Wu Chun's really is my long lost brother. I have to go back and ask my mom." When asked if she looks like a man then? Linda said: "Wu Chun is very handsome, resembling him is just another type of compliment." Linda wants to take pictures with Wu Chun and hopes to duet with him, in a group style. She said: "I should recommend that we portray siblings? When I see him, I may take initiative and suggest that we collaborate in something together." 

Wu Chun also thinks he and Linda look alike: "We do kinda look alike. Before when I was shooting with Raymond Lam, he said we really looked alike. Ekin Cheng said the same thing. If we could play brother and sister in a movie/series in the future, that wouldn't be too bad." When speaking of Linda wanting to duet with him? Wu Chun laughed: "Waited too long because I've been acting more, if there was a film's theme song, then we could do it." Wu Chun will be turning 33 on October 10th, he expressed he'll be celebrating with his fans in Taiwan and hopes to invite the three other guys of Fahrenheit. When asked if his birthday wish is to be in a relationship? He said: "No, acting is better."

Ron Ng Not Romantic, Steal Ideas from Dramas

Yesterday Ron Ng, Myolie Wu and Kelly Fu were shooting in Sek O for TVB new series Triumph in the Skies II. Yesterday the scene was about Ron built a large heart using vitamin water bottles on the beach to confess his love for Myolie. However, Kelly Fu, who has an incurable disease, misunderstood the heart was made for her. She was very touched and immediately embraced Ron. Myolie said the scene is very romantic, but unfortunately no guy had ever done that for her in real life. The biggest surprise was she was taken on a helicopter ride, but he isn't a guy that the public knows. She said: "I hope someone in the future would do something romantic for me. If someone does this for a girl, of course she'll be happy, but I think aside from these actions, the most important is the person's heart. I rather be more practical, the guy treats me well from his heart, it's better than trying to do all those creative stuff." Ron has never done that for any girl. He claimed he's not a romantic person at all and will have to learn from the dramas. A magazine reported he got back together with ex-lover Ella Koon? He said: "I saw her at the studio earlier, we said hi, but I won't respond to any news that are not true."

Yesterday reporters congratulated Aimee, but she awkwardly waved her hands and said no. She denied the rumored and clarified the report was fabricated. When asked when the two are planning to get marry then? Aimee expressed every time she's out at events, the media asks her the same question and the truth is, there are no such plans. She said: "Take it slowly, one step at a time. (It was said Moses was proposing for half a year?) This story had been made up several times. I am currently enjoying my work and we are not rushed at all." She frankly expressed she didn't set a time for herself of when she should be married, but it is not the right time for her now. 

It was also reported Moses orders her not to do kiss scenes or dress in a sexy clothing. Aimee said she had never gone down the sexy route and wears whatever clothing she likes to wear. She expressed she and Moses are both artists and understand what their job requires, so no pressure is given. "His kiss scenes, at most is I won't watch it. If there is pressure, it's hard to get into character." When asked if Moses is a marriage partner? She insisted to take it slowly. Currently, they will continue enjoying the dating life and two person world.
