Raymond Lam to Win TVB Best Actor and Best Male Singer Awards?

Since Mavis Pan Shuangshuang revealed bed photos with Raymond Lam Fung, the TVB star went through an emotional rollercoaster. Allegedly, Mavis may possess additional intimate photos which could potentially hurt Raymond. Fortunately, he was protected by TVB. Next month, Raymond will make strong advances in the television, film, and music industries. Raymond’s series, Return to the Three Kingdoms <回到三國> will be broadcast as an Anniversary series in the November timeframe.

On May 16th, TVB will be airing My Sister of Eternal Flower <花花世界花家姐> in Hong Kong, replacing the time slot for Relics of an Emissary<洪武三十二>. In the series, Raymond will co-star with Charmaine Sheh Si Man, who portrays a mentally-challenged girl. The attraction in this series is quite high and may rebuild Raymond’s positive image in the eyes of the audience.

Paving Path for Best Actor Award

Raymond will complete the filming of Return to the Three Kingdoms by June. Allegedly, TVB was interested in marketing this series as an Anniversary series and will air it in November. Since the TVB Anniversary will be held in December, TVB was paving the path for Raymond to win the Best Actor Award!

Appledaily contacted Lau Ka Ho, the producer of Return to the Three Kingdoms. Will Return to the Three Kingdoms be designated as an Anniversary series and inviting Japanese composer, Kitaro to compose the theme song? Mr. Lau said, “I have not received notice yet. I really don’t know!” Will Raymond Lam sing the theme song? “Yes, without any unforeseen factors.” Will Return of the Three Kingdoms pave the path for Raymond to win the Best Actor Award? “Our production team did not think of that. It is the media that always circulate these rumors!”

A TVB Public Relations representative said, “The airing date of My Sister of Eternal Flower was decided after Relics of an Emissary a long time ago. Since Raymond is a singer, then it is normal to have him sing the theme song of Return to the Three Kingdoms. I do not know whether Return to the Three Kingdoms will be an Anniversary series or not yet. They are still filming the series and there will be need for post-production work.

Taking Home the Best Male Singer Award?

Aside from the Best Actor Award, TVB also intended to give Raymond the Best Male Singer title in January 2012’s Jade Solid Gold music awards.Raymond. At the end of the end of July, Raymond will hold a mini-concert series at the Hong Kong Coliseum. Due to his upcoming concert and singing the theme song, Raymond had good chances to win the Best Male Singer Award.

Filming “The Yang Saga” With Louis Koo

Last year, when Shaw Brothers, Wong Ka Hei criticized Raymond as being unable to attract box office sales, TVB Deputy Chairman, Mona Fong, wrote a 12-word note to support Raymond: “No fear of gossip. With rave reviews, continue to achieve new heights.”  In August, Raymond will filmRaymond Wong Pak Ming’s new film, The Yang Saga <楊家將>. Playing the role of the fifth son in the Yang family of warriors, Raymond will star opposite Louis Koo Tin Lok, Ekin Cheng, Wu Zun, Vic Zhou, Deng Chao and other handsome actors.

In addition, Raymond’s new film opposite Jet Li, Charlene Choi and Eva HuangThe Legend of White Snake <白蛇傳說> will be released on September 23rd. Portraying the scholar Hui Sin in the film, Raymond will promote the movie in China at the time. In December, Raymond will film a mainland drama. With a packed schedule planned for the rest of the year, Raymond will likely be so busy he will be coughing in exertion!

“Indulging in your lust is equivalent to hanging a knife upon your head.” Since the exposure of Mavis Pan and Raymond Lam’s bed photos, Raymond’s former good image was destroyed. Although loyal fans supported Raymond, the onslaught of intimate photos may have impacted Raymond’s career. As a result, TVB intervened to ensure that Raymond will continue to dominate the television, film, and music industries.

Below is Raymond Lam’s schedule for the remainder of 2011:

May 16: TVB series, My Sister of Eternal Flower to air in Hong Kong

June: Complete the filming of Return to the Three Kingdoms

End of July: Concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum

August/ September: Film Raymond Wong’s The Yang Saga

September 23: Release of The Legend of White Snake, which stars Jet Li, Raymond Lam, Charlene Choi, and Eva Huang

November: TVB to air Return to the Three Kingdoms in Hong Kong

December: Raymond to film mainland series in China

Excerpt from Appledaily

Jayne: Wow, 2011 is indeed a busy year for Raymond! I look forward to hearing more about “The Yang Saga,” as it will bring together many hunky men. “The Yang Saga” is a sad epic as most of the men die in the film. I guess Cecilia Cheung’s “The Yang Warrior Women” will likely be released this summer and Raymond Wong is following up with the male version!

  1. Best singer for what?! Best actor for what?! They both suck! No offense but he doesn’t sing good, dance good or even act good.

      1. arrrrrh,ray as the st’rat’igist in三國, sounds stupid, but lookfrw to it and not coz lam fung, just the title三國 sounds big, haha

  2. I’m hoping My Sister of Eternal Flower will live up to expectations. I just don’t see how Raymond can fall for a girl with a 10 year old mentality. Doesn’t make sense to me.

    It does seem as though because there is so much hype around Raymond that they expect him to win Best Actor and Best Male Singer. I’m just not sure about either as I don’t feel as though he had many strong roles this year with TVB and his albums may sell well due to his popularity but not sure whether he deserves to be called Best Male Singer…

    1. My Sister of Eternal Flower is a freaky sort of series I tell you. The story itself is wrong.

    2. @cinsin, Haha, it’s all unrealistic. I don’t have high expectations for the story, but still looking forward to Charmaine’s performance. The selling point for this series is clearly Raymond and Charmaine and I have a feeling that it will be cliched.

    3. Yeah, I have low expectations for this series as well… maybe she’ll not be fully mentally handicapped like ‘ah wong’ but just on the slow side.

    4. someone please tell me a difference difference Roger’s Ah Wong and Charm’s Ah Fa?

      Did Jessica really marry Roger’s character in the modern version?

      1. I don’t think there is, since reading a synopsis it seems as though she’s just a female character of ah wong. They both work in a restaurant with a child’s mentality…

        I just don’t see why Charmaine had to sport the ugly hair. Just because you’re mentally handicapped doesn’t mean you have to look like a boy!

      2. I wouldn’t take those synopsis seriously as they are usually poorly written and not really a representation of how the actual series is.

        Charmaine had short hair in real life at the time she was filming the series. Personally, I love her short haircut and she looks classy and elegant in it. It’s just that she had straight bangs and it makes it looks more innocent and old-fashioned. If she had side-swept bangs with her short hair, she would look too intelligent for her role.

  3. I am looking forward to Yang’s Saga since I can never forget the 1985 version from TVB. It was the most star studded series ever. I just hope that it is good as a movie. The 2006 series from China was pretty good. I can’t really picture Ray as the 5th son though, especially now that his image is tarnished. The 5th son is one of the most well mannered and eventually becomes a monk. Sorry, but I can’t really imagine Ray like that anymore. But hey, maybe they gave him that role hoping to win back his clean image???? It is great to know that that movie will have a star studded cast just like the other versions.

      1. You really don’t think it is? Well, at first they thought he was single and had no girlfriend and well some of the really naive ones probably even thought that he was a virgin… Now that is all down the drain… But now, they see him a bed with a girl and has lost it.. It comes as a big shock to the really innocent ones.

      2. They = who? His fans?

        Actually there are not many of innocent fans who think he is a virgin (I can tell you that since I’m a fan, I must know his fans more than you). And the ones who shocked, they recovered and accepted the fact quite fast, before the second batch of pix is leaked (see it in the weibos and baidu).

        Of course have some quit him, but this number is not big at all.

        He said not 1 time tat if he has gf, he’ll hide so most of his fans dun feel shocked.

        I think many non fans won’t believe wat I’m saying, but it’s truth. This scandal is more of a shock to non fans than fans (especially the ones who know him for a long while).

        If you think his image is tarnished, then you can see how many ppl go to see him in his recent functions (About 300-400 in HK and 10000 in GZ). Not less, even more than before.

      3. Most of his fans comment like this: “His private life, he can do watever he wants” and “Like him for many reasons, but sex is not one”.

        From his baidu bar and weibos :).

      4. @Fox,
        Oh ok, since you are a fan of his then that explains it all…

      5. I have never denied I’m not a fan. Actually most of ppl here knew this.

        If you meant they = his fans, then you should ask his fan to know about his fans (since you are not, you can’t know his fans as much as his fans).

        That’s all.

    1. Raymond is still well-mannered and 5th son is not a virgin (he’s married). So, no contradiction here. 😛

      1. You can’t ensure that a married man can maintain his virginity or not 😛 LMAO~.

    2. Actually for me as a fan, I was previously shocked but recovered from it quite fast. Everyone deserves to have a personal life.

      As for Ray being well-mannered, I still find him well mannered. Getting into a relationship with a girl doesn’t rid one of manners, its part of an upbringing instead.

      We shouldnt mix his on-screen characters as Ray himself since none of us know him personally.

      Anyway, I’m excited for the Yang saga since its hunk filled!

    3. HeTieShou,
      in the old TVB “The Yang’s Saga,” I liked Andy Lau’s character and his romance with Carina Lau the most. The series had a star studded cast, but the 6 episode series was really too short to do the story and cast any just. There was lack of character development and some big stars such as Chow Yun Fat and Dodo Cheng only had 2 or 3 scenes.

      Maybe Raymond will not have to shave his head in the new film. With such an epic story to be told, it really depends on which elements Raymond Wong wants to focus on. Also, I have a feeling he will not kill off all the sons in the first film and milk it as a franchise first.

      I wonder if the female cast will be as star studded.

      1. There is rumours that Angelababy, Lynn Hung and Fan Bing Bing are invited. Not sure if it’s true or not.

      2. Jayne,
        In the old Yang’s Saga, Andy’s played the 6th son so of course he would get the most screen time. Yea, since it was a TVB anniversary series so they didn’t want to make it too long. I think they were just aiming at the star studded cast and not really letting any of them develop. They just wanted everyone to make an appearance. Did you see the mainland series from China? The cast was pretty good and had a good story. They didn’t have any of the gods in there though.

        I think that Raymond can just wear a bald cap. Chen Long did and did not shave his head. In most stories that I have seen,they focus on the 4th, 5th, and 6th sons the most because they are the only 3 that do not die in battle.

      3. @ HTS: Yang saga or Young Yang saga you are mentioning? I agree if it’s Young Yang saga because Yang saga is kinda bad in my opinion.

      4. @Fox,
        I am talking about both of them. I personally liked them both, but I think Yang’s Saga sort of messed up the story by making the Liao princess die. I guess they had to do that to end the series. Yang’s Saga was enjoyable as a series, but not a good adaption of the actual story.

      5. To talk about the actual story, all of us dunno the actual story about Yang family in the history, except they all died :P. So I guess it’s better to say the story in the novel :).

      6. I remember enjoying the China version (the one with HuGe). I’ve forgotten, but the fifth son is the one HuGe played, right?

        @Fox, Oh dear! I hope Angelababy is just a rumor. I cannot stand her, and I don’t think she can act. I can’t fathom why any director would want to cast Angelababy in a production like the Yang Saga.

      7. @Lollis,
        No, HuGe played the 6th son in the Young Yang Warriors. Chen Long played the 5th son, Peter Ho played the 4th son and Eddie Peng played the 7th son. I enjoyed that version a lot and really hope that the movie version will be good.

    4. Haha, I’m not sure if his image is tarnished, but I believed more people are willing to side with him than with Mavis. He has an established acting (and singing) career and is popular. However, I can’t see him as the 5th son because I don’t recall ever seeing him bald. Has he ever starred in any Qing Dynasty series? There’s something about Raymond that makes him and his hair go together.

      1. Well, there are more and more people that also think badly of him as well. But with time this will all pass…

      2. He starred in Lofty water verdant bow which is in Qing Dynasty time, but you know, he didn’t have that Qing hairdo.

        I also think his face without hair will be weird, however since he has never done, dunno. I saw him with very short hair (about 1cm) during TOB time and yes, it looks… funny.

      3. @ HTS: Think badly of him? Lol, I dunno why ppl need to make that big deal on date a sexy girl? No offense, but why you think of sexy girls that bad? It’s PSS’s actions to make herself look bad, not her work (show body, do sexy photoshoot) make her look bad. If PSS didn’t sell her love for money and fame, I don’t think she deserves to be hated because she is sexy.

        That’s why I said the “scandal” is more shocked to non fans more than fans.

        Oh well.

      4. Well, I like Raymond as well so don’t get me wrong, but I am not really at the fan level. I think it is not just non fans, many of fans/former fans were all shocked. I personally don’t care who he dates as long as he is happy, but look at who he dated and what she did to him…
        Actually, I think it shocked his fans more than the non fans because his fans care more about him… I don’t think you or me can speak for his other fans since there are way too many of them. You can run in a group of fans with different views from the ones that I run into. But whatever… time will pass and everyone will forget this whole thing and move on…

      5. I also want to add that I don’t really have anything against sexy girls in general, but with PSS… Look at what she has done?? It is true that none of us know her personally, but we can get an idea about what kind of person she is. I thought that as a Ray fan that you would dislike her more than I would.

      6. I said: I think it’s wrong of what she did (sold the love for money and fame) than her work (as a sexy model). I don’t hate her because I don’t know her well enough. However, I hate her actions (sold the love).

        As his fans care for him, they know him so well then it’s not really a matter for him to date. He met wrong person, poor him. But his image tarnished? How can?

        You are mentioning that his image tarnished in fans’ mind, that’s why I told you it’s not. That’s all.

        I don’t know you are fan/liker/non/anti and it’s not my business. I’m saying that if you think his image is tarnished in fans’ mind, it’s not. So I guess we have misunderstandings here.

    5. If Raymond’s acting is convincing enough, then his “tarnished” image shouldn’t be an issue. But the problem is… Raymond’s acting ISN’T convincing enough, lol. 😛

      1. Did you watch this 3K to know it’s convincing or not?

      2. I’m same view as Fox. How can you say his acting not convincing so early??

  4. @ Jayne: About the Yang movie, as far as I know now, here is the full cast:

    7 sons: Louis Koo (1st son), Ekin Cheng, Deng Chao, Zai Zai, LF (5th son), Wu Chun (6th son) and William Feng Shao Feng (not in order, whose role is revealed I put in ()).

    Dad: Adam Cheng

    Mom: Xu Fan

    The movie will about 7 sons go to save their dad. 1-5 will have wives, 6 will have gf.

    1. The 7 sons going to save their dad?? I wonder where that story came from? I guess they are sort of rewriting the story… Thanks for the info!

      Wu Chun will play the 6th son? That is good to hear since I thought that he was going to leave the circle… The first to the 5th sons are all married. It is just the 6th and 7th sons that don’t have one yet. The 6th one meets princess chai and marries her later.

      1. I guess they want to change the story to make it different and also the appropriate length for a movie. I have not seen a single Chinese movie that I actually really like yet. I hope this one will be good.

    2. Wow, this is the one I’m looking forward to the most because of the awesome cast! Other than that, I’m tired of seeing Raymond everywhere. Give him a break and give the audience a break!
      And geesh, he’s not even done shooting the Return to Three Kingdoms series, why is the media even speculating that he’s going to win Best Actor with it? They did the same thing last year and said that he has a high chance with getting Best Actor with Growing through Life but unfortunately it failed miserably in ratings. I think this type of news hurts him more than helps him because if he does win it, people will say it’s fixed no matter what, whether he deserved it or not.

      1. Lol, you can’t end these news like this. It’ll appear everywhere and involve everyone in the hype of the award (made by TVB and reporters). LF isn’t the only one and won’t be the only one.

        As for the awards, everyone know it’s fixed.

      2. Just 1-2 months ago Jayne translated a news about Steven Ma to be TV King and now news said Raymond will be TV King. Maybe should just give to both.

    3. When I first heard that Ray will be playing the 5th son, my interest in his role is going to shave hair at the end or not (becoming a monk)

      1. He dont have to shave. Just wear a fake bald head. Even TVB can make a convincing fake bald head in that monk series.

    4. The budget look big with these star studded cast. I think Feng Shao feng will be the youngest

    5. Fox, thanks for the info! The Yang’s Saga story has tragic elements, filial piety, romance, sacrifice, brotherly love, and many elements that could make it a classic. And opportunity for CGI and awesome action sequences. I hope Raymond Wong will find the right director and screenwriter to give the story justice.

      I doubt the entire Yang’s Saga will be told in this movie; there will likely be installments. We will see…I’m looking forward to this film!

      1. The director is Fearless’s director Ronny Yu. The scriptwriter is Edmond Wong, writer of Ip Man 1 and 2, All’s Well Ends Well and The Monkey King. Most of the info I found in Edmond Wong’s weibo

      2. @Fox, thanks for the director nd scriptwriter info. Sounds like a team capable of delivering a blockbuster. The rumored female cast sounds interesting too! Who will be Raymond’s wife?

      3. I really hope that they don’t make really ridiculous changes to the story since there are novels and books on the story of Yang Saga.. If they do, many that have read the books will not like it…

      4. @HTS: Well, there is a novel on Yang family but this one is like Mang Lai Guan, is a legend and there are many versions of a legend.

      5. @Fox,
        I think it is true to an extent that legends do have several versions, but I am not sure it applies to every legend.Even if that is the case, that still doesn’t mean that the story and script can feel free to write and do anything that they want to. I don’t consider Meng Li Jun a legend. That is more a story/novel. My mom loves it and read it soo many times that she memorized parts of it. That is why she hates the TVB version because that is nothing like the actual story. The one from China with Li Bing Bing rewrote the story as well and it it is nothing like the novel. My brother and mom complained so much when we watched it.

      6. I watched the one with Li Bing Bing as well as the novel. Sorry to say, it just follows half of the novel, not that “tight”.

        And Mang Lai Guan is surely a legend. She is a real person in the history, but being dramatized by the novel (like 3 Kingdoms, 108 heroes or Yang family). Legends are always based on real stories (different to fairy tales which are pure imagination).

        They can choose to follow the novel or any version of the legend they want, or even create new version. It’s the creation of the scriptwriter. It’s different to adaption of a book/novel 🙂 (such as doing series adapted from a wuxia novel of Jin Yong).

        I read the Mang Lai Guan novel (it’s Reborn love, right?) 1 + 2, and your mother likes it? Lol, I personally think its characters are funny (especially Wong Fu Siu Wah, how can he gets married with 3 girls, including 1 he knows nothing about her – Suet. Mang Lai Guan deserved to have a spoiled daughter, the way she teaches her daughter is just wrong).

  5. Jayne,
    do you have any pictures of anothony wong’s family? I am curious as to how his wife looks like. Is it even possible to hide his family from the public eye considering he’s a veteran actor?

    1. Sidney, I don’t have photos of Anthony Wong’s family. Did you try a baidu search?

  6. good job ray, he should win tv king , he the potential, and he hasnt even one once.

  7. he looks so much more cheerful now, and im very happy to see that.

  8. ray, just avoid everything and go on with your own life because time doesnt wait for us, move on with time, everything happend for good reason.

  9. ray a magnet, he exudes magnetism thro his eyes, his voice, his smile, his personality.

  10. just keep smiling ray, i get wings to fly when i see you smile.

    1. Why can’t you post your comments in one comment box instead of repeatedly posting? It just takes up so much space.

  11. He needs to call Mavis and ask for her surgeon’s number…the boy needs to redo that nose, I mean if your gonna do it then get it right lol. All joke aside, he is seriously not good looking! Ron ng on the other hand is hottt!

    1. Agree.While I don’t dislike Raymond Lam. He’s got nothing on Ron Ng in the looks department.

    2. I concur to the comment regarding Ron. And he has the off-screen charisma/personality to go with it. I think Raymond beats Ron in the acting department, though.

      1. I saw both when they came over to country for meet the fans event. On screen Ron looks handsome than Raymond, but, off screen, I find Raymond more handsome.

      2. @ Kidd: I think their looks are simply not the same. One is hot type and one is soft type.

      3. @ Fox

        I like Ron and I think he’s good looking. Can be said to be ‘有型’. But, not hot.

      4. @ Kidd: Different opinion :P. I also like Ron and I think he is hot. However his eyes (especially on screen) always give me =.= feeling. That’s why I prefer LF than Ron because I like man with beautiful eyes.

        *Note: I met both in real life, close distance.

      5. @ Fox

        “*Note: I met both in real life, close distance.”

        Hei, my distance also pretty close since I stand at the front. 😛

      6. I still think Ron looks hot, except his eyes, haha. But recently he is kinda chubby =.=.

  12. whatever, what you want to say about ray, is free to giving comment, i not worry about all the negative comment, only i want to say thank you for you comment, first and last , ray only one idol to me .

  13. fanwen, thank you for you comment, sorry i like to post my comment in every one comment box, because i want giving all my felling to ray, giving all my support to him untill fullest, i dont care if you dont like it.

    1. No I don’t like it too 😛

      He not that great of a singer nor that great of an actor to deserve both awards. He’s getting it cause they don’t wan’t him running up north for more cash.

      The fix is in I tell you! I don’t even bother caring about it anymore since I feel it’s like a big scam.

    2. I just really think it’s immature of you to constantly post everything separately within the same time span. I don’t really care if you praise LF; that’s your opinion. But at least be considerate of those reading the comments because all they will see are spam like posts coming from you.

  14. Hmm…i don’t understand how come TVB is so willing to promote Raymond Lam so much despite of all the negative news? I wonder how would other artists felt? Predicting to win both Best Actor and Best Singer??

  15. TVB should give other artist an opportunity to shine as well. Mavis had already exposed Raymond’s ANGEL mask. Give him and the audience a break.

  16. Poor ray, never ending negative news!!!
    Can the media leave him alone??? Y r they reporting only the negative news?
    I guess he must have offended someone in the media

    Before the Mavis news, the line up works for him for drama, concert, album & movie were kinda confirmed
    So why r such news saying TVB save him and award him Best actor 2011 etc???
    Thot there were news speculating Steven Ma may win TV king this year?

    Give him a break.
    This Mavis news does not affect him much. Look at the recent over-crowded function in china- he still has many supporters

  17. aren’t most of the stars in denial..got girfriend say no got boy friend say no ..so what is the big deal poor raymond is the victim here..mavis is the **** she is out to get publicity for herself

  18. Maybe Lam Fung should date Virginia Lok. They look good together holding hand.

      1. @Funn, I thought she doesn’t favor Kevin anymore. He hardly appears in any more grand productions. Somehow his popularity just went down the drain after Beyond the Realm of Conscience.

        @HeTieShou, Haha, if that’s so, then she’s too old for Kevin as well!

      2. Virginia Lok, Raymond Lam, and Kevin Cheng? Wow, never imagine a threesome. Maybe Virginia and Raymond have probably slept together already, who knows. But seriously, they look good together.

      3. Maybe greedy old Lok wants them both 😉 JK
        Why oh why must the female cast include Angelababy and Fang Bing Bing, aren’t there anymore actresses out there left? They are in every film.

      4. @HeTieShou; maybe he likes drinking old lotus root soup 😛

      5. How old is Virginia anyway??

        @Pvt. Joker,
        Maybe she does… She has a pretty high position right? If so, she can get any guy she wants.. ha.. ha..

  19. sorry,not spamming but forgot to say that with a stellar cast of hunk, they won’t need a stellar cast of female star. Perhaps, they can use fresh beautiful faces that we haven’t seen before and hopefully, they are “natural” face and not plastic!

    1. Uhm huh, then ppl will complain that new faces can’t act?

      It’s hard to satisfy ppl now :P.

  20. pvt.joker, it is my voice, no problem if you dont like it too, nobody can force you to liking him, i just want tell you, if he not that great of a singer or actor, why he always get awards in many many years, than why tvb giving him alot job no to other artist,he has more talent.

  21. how many people here doesnt like him, its ok, is there he still has loyal fans to support him everyday, everytime, everywhere, no only there in china he has crazy fans, no ones ever gonna be able to beat him.

  22. why here all the comment say about plastic surgeon, maybe all want to try , maybe some jealous want be chok look like ray.

    1. Why would any of us be jealous? I think that is why many celebs(not only celebs but the normal citizen too) often deny that they have had any plastic surgery done because it is fake and not natural. If anyone has the money(and courage too)then they can get anything done that they want. Sorry but I personally would not ever get jealous of a person that has had plastic surgery since they were ashamed of their natural looks and had to get something fixed. I think the only way for anyone to be jealous is if someone else is naturally born with great features and natural beauty.But then again, I would not call it jealous, maybe more of admiration.They were born that way and have to accept it instead of all of those people who go under the knife god knows how many times to fix this and that.

      I personally don’t find Ray’s features that great, however, they are still attractive. But if he did leave them as is, then I do admire that since he did not try to change what his parents gave him. However, I doubt that he has not had anything done…

      1. The reason for the artist to do plastic surgeries is very simple: Audience want to see them look good.

        If ppl dun criticize them on (1) their faces dun look good (2) their clothes dun look good (3) their (watever related) dun look good, why they want to change themselves (with the ricks).

        That’s all for the audience.

        Artists sell look – then look is their asset. They have to do everything to make this asset more and more valuable. Someone is born with great features and natural beauty? Lol, everything has flaws including human. Nobody is perfect. These great features and natural beauty, without the help of something like diet, gym, cosmetic and medicine, how long can it maintain?

        BTW, sure that dun need to have any jealousy with artists (plastic surgery or not). Everyone is beautiful in their own way.

      2. It is true that artists sell because of looks and it’s not that I am 100% against plastic surgery. However, what I hate most is when they lie about it even when they are questioned. It’s like if you are ashamed of it then why do it?? I guess the artists of today really lack beauty and self confidence compared to the older generation since plastic surgery was not allowed back in the days nor was it that common…

        Yea, everyone is beautiful and unique in their own way…

      3. Well, what happen if they really dun do such thing in the mentioned part? They may do 1000 things in different parts but the reporters dun know but point out a part they dun do.

        It’s just a case :P.

        Another possibility: If they admit, the reporters will chase them everywhere to know what they did, where and when, etc. and then mock them, etc. Maybe it’s a thinking in their minds.

        You can see, the ones who dare to post their plastic surgeries pix online, ppl dun spend them any good comments. I’m taking this person as an example: She is a very ugly woman (in the view standard of ppl) and she took more than 100 plastic surgeries to change herself and become a good looking model. She is very open and she said it to the public herself. After that, the media calls her “plastic model” but she accepted. They keep mentioning of her as a model who go through many changes. After 6 years, they still follow her and find any of her flaws, then go to conclusion that she is not good looking even with plastic surgeries. Her skin is dark, they complain it’s dark. Her skin is white, they say she changes the color by medicine, etc. When she got married, her husband is asked which parts in her body is fake and he can feel the silicon bags or not. It’s kinda hurtful. She cried and said: “I’d rather they dun know I did plastic surgeries”. It’s a true story.

        There are tons of excuses for them to lie. Come on, who dun like to be praised as “natural beauty” even when they are not?

        Sorry to say, but can you ensure that the older generation dun do plastic surgery?

      4. Yeah artistes are pressured to look good in the viewer’s eyes even more so when they have to compete with Korean and Taiwanese idols who look flawless onscreen(I don’t know about real life).

        There are still many artistes who keep their natural state, but bear in mind that these artistes also need to keep up being criticised as ugly or average looking.
        “She has bucked teeth and flat nose! He has perverted smile!”

        When an artiste change image for a character or drama -also got criticised.
        “Shave that moustache I don’t like it! Noo why does she cut her hair she’s not sexy goddess anymore!”

        When some artistes went under the knife, they will still get criticized; whether they admit or not.
        “It so obvious that she change her nose – stop being fake and admit it!”
        “Shameless D-list actress! Promoting plastic!”

        Haha, in the end there’s always something to criticize by viewers or media :P. Need EQ, EQ, IQ…hahah.

      5. That’s why I said TVB has bad lighting and makeup to make their artists look bad on screen.

        I don’t know all the Korean stars but the ones I saw (especially the male stars) has kinda bad skin will pimples (when they dun wear makeup). But after they wear make up, wow, so different.

      6. @HeTieShou:

        “Sorry but I personally would not ever get jealous of a person that has had plastic surgery since they were ashamed of their natural looks and had to get something fixed.”

        LOL! Well said!

      7. I believe most celebrties did something to their faces but instead of plastic surgery, they did enhancements which is more popular and not permanent.

        For Korean & Taiwan celebrities, many of them did something too, but not many will admit too.

        Personally feel it is one being insecure and hence there is this need to satisfy other people’s views on oneself thus definitely they will not admit.

    2. Most of the posters here are female… and why would we want the chok look?

  23. funny how the same thing can be said in another meaning now. Raymond’s upcoming works were scheduled way long time ago, but now they were said to boost his career after the scandal. lol Next Media…Apple Daily again. they got lots of money from Raymond’s news already. give the guy a break sometimes.

    i much prefer Singtao, Wenweipo or Mingpao.

    1. Mingpao is better but The Sun/Oriental Daily or any EEG subsidieries magazines are as bad as Next media too(owned by EEG)and always attack non-EEG artistes.

      I don’t understand the rough and low integrities from HK biggest medias.

      1. EDIT: *take out the (owned by EEG). I meant to delete that after rephrasing my sentence but forgot and now my facts seem wrong.

        Apple Daily/Face Magazine/Next magazine – Next media

        The Sun/Oriental Daily/Oriental Sunday/some other tabloids – EEG

      2. You forget Sudden in the list of gossip magazine. So do Face, 3 Weekly, etc.

        Next is fighting against Monday (EEG’s) so they like to attack EEG’s artist.

      3. that’s why i said i preferred Mingpao, Wenweipo or Singtao. At least, from my observation, these three tend to put the news as it is. less make-up, creativity, twisting/putting words in artistes’ mouths & etc. they seem to have better ethic.

      4. Yeah there are many more gossip magazines such as Sudden Weekly(Next), New Monday(EEG). Feel free to list if anyone remember haha.

        That’s why at some instances last year, certain press such as New Monday or Oriental Sunday will actively talk about Kay Tse while Next or Sudden will talk about Joey Yung.

        HK media and their notorious ways. All artistes need to have high EQ to stay 😛

      5. Vidi, Singtao also start out their own brand of gossip 😛

        The most decent(for HK standard) is Mingpao since they most of the time just “follow-up” on rumors and their weekly magazine always become a place for stars to speak up; maybe because they did less tweaking . Both Raymond and Moses did so.

      6. actually i kinda felt sorry for Kay too. it seems those gossips really got into her. she seemed sad during that time.

        you’re right that being HK artistes need to keep EQ stay up high. too bad that HK entertainment is so small.

        No wonder many artistes say they are more relaxed when they work outside HK. i remember Nicholas Tse and his family seemed to enjoy filming outside HK a lot.

      7. I rmb that Mingpao is established by few ppl, one of them is Yin Jong.

      8. sorry. i forgot to use “reply to this comment”.

        Masaharu, really? Singtao starts to do so? a bit regret. less media with some ethic…sigh…

        i especially dislike those animation news clips by Apple Daily. it’s just annoying for me how they make other people’s lives a joke like that.

  24. Masaharu, really? Singtao starts to do so? a bit regret. less media with some ethic…sigh…

    1. Yeah Singtao did so sometimes but normally not as high profile as the bigger tabloids.

      Sad isn’t it? The state of HK media’s image.

      1. sad as it is. but it seems to fit HK audience’s taste. i guess.

  25. im ok, im not upset at all, im come here to giving my voice to support ray, anybody bother, its ok, i fell be happy if there ray also happy, good luck.

  26. people in tvb all support ray, because his eq is high, and has not let his emotions affect his work.

  27. he must be happy, he know to the fans realy support him very close to make him able to receive such this honour, go ray.

  28. i will always support you, ray, do your best and take care your healt.

  29. he deserves to be tv king, after all the years of hard work, he needs to be recognized, the awards is a further step of recognition in the industry, but there is not need for tvb to boost him, his acting is super.

  30. to me, this mavis saga is not affecting his popularity and many fans are still supporting him.

  31. whats wrong with the photos leaked by mavis, ray is a normal person and he said many times that he wants to have a girlfriend, the photos are not x rated and so what if there x rated photos.

  32. positivity bursts from him, its his first time is he can get the awards for best actor and best singer, congratulation to ray.

  33. because we know him well enough to think he can get this years, he potential and super talent, but i going to have to wait for he get another 8 months.

  34. hope he get a quintuple sales award, he did a very good job with his album, and like most fans do listen, and it opens another door to the mainland market. go ray, i will support.

  35. Ever since Raymond’s singing career took off to a successful start, his acting has been getting less and less impressive. Not only that, but he’s also being typecasted to play the rich, intelligent, and kind (basically perfect) roles and it’s so boring to see Raymond doing the same thing over and over again. He’s definitely not Best Actor material, at least not yet.

  36. ray be alright, he is a brilliant actor and have seen him for like almost 10 years in tvb, he has gained more fans and supporters instead.

  37. i hope he dream come true,can get for both the awards, he hard work, he good son, he good brother, he good partner, he good singer , he good actor, he good boy, he good friend, at least he the winner.

  38. who say, ray cant act, he come out from tvb act class why he cant act, its immposible.

  39. he first tvb actor more shine than another tvb actor, he can do everything way to the music, tv, film, nobody can do it, he super idol.

    1. Yup, agree Raymond is a super idol. He can act,sing,host and even being a spoke person.He got talent a bit in everything.
      Hope, he will success in whatever he is going to do in the future.Forever support him for his art work, despite his negative rumors, which I believe(not all what wrote in magazines are true).

      1. Sorry, but Ray is not the only one that is multi-talented. Many many artists in the circle can act, sing, host, be a spokesperson and many more things… Not saying that he isn’t talented or anything, but many others can do it too so it’s not like he is the only one that can.

    2. @jim,
      Sorry but can you please just put all of your comments into one post?? You are taking up a lot of space and it is really tiring to have to scroll down to read others’ messages just because yours takes up so much space…

  40. Raymond does not look convincing as Zhuge Liang. I don’t like his stache. I’m excited to see Yang Saga, though, especially Louis Koo.

  41. ray has good quality, fit for that award, hope it make through in every role, his career is stable, no saving is needed, ray is pure talent, he has dreamy voice, go ray, your always the best in my heart, you rock my world.

  42. well there seriously not many other popular tvb male artists other than ray, that hasnt won tv king yet, i hope he wins this year.

  43. ray is a versatile artist that most successful among the best actor in tvb, and he is the most popular male artist in tvb.
