Hong Kong Celebrity Sighting - Wayne Lai from Rosy Business


Every time we went for sous chef's Saturday morning check up in Jordan, we always bump into something good.

This time, we literally walked straight into a morning shooting...involving...Wayne Lai (黎耀祥)!
He looks really handsome and suave in person :)

He was the kind of actor that appears in most TVB soap shows and some movies...someone that looks familiar but I never really knew his name.

Until I watched Rosy Business (巾幗梟雄).
Loved the series, and absolutely loved Wayne's role (柴九哥) in it.

Hope you had a smooth morning shooting, Wayne.

Hong Kong Movie Shooting Commotion - Eason Chan & Karena Lam


This was Causeway Bay, right in front of Sogo department store last night around 20:00.

What's with the commotion?
A fight? A cat fight? Accident? Acid rain? Someone giving away money/free gifts? Scantily clad leng mo (teenage models) giving away free sexy bolsters?
I wish.
It was a HK movie shoot and the crowd was going nuts trying to get a glimpse of their idols.

A friend of mine often asked me if I've experienced many celebrity sightings in Hong Kong.
Yeah, a few times...Tony Leung, Rain Li, Sherman something, William something, Boyz, Anthony Wong, JJ...and probably a few more that I can't remember.

Have you imagined what would you do when you see a celebrity face to face/walking right in front of you?
A. Take a picture/shoot a video to show off to your friends
B. Approach them and say you're a big fan and you love their work very much (although it might not be the truth)
C. Ask them to take a picture/shoot a video with you, to show off to more friends
D. Ask for a signature
E. Act super cool, pretending not to see them, pretending that seeing Tony Leung in person is an every day event
F. None of the above

In many occasions, I opted to go with E. Probably because back then there was no medium for me to show off share my sightings.

But now...the most important thing is to get some shots of them, albeit blurry ones/back shots.
Who the heck are they?
Karena Lam & Eason Chan.
I was so determined to get a shot (As luck would have it, I didn't have my better camera, tried my best to make the most of my teeny tiny point and shoot), I thickened my face, ignored the shouts and warnings from the movie shooting assistants and elbowed my way to the front of the commotion.


...and still, all I could get was this crappy back shot.


...and blurry frontal shot.

Sous chef, being a major fan of Karena Lam, gawked endlessly at her and kept saying "Ohhhhh, how pretty! She is so pretty! Pretty, pretty, PRETTY!"
All I could say was "Eason Chan. He is so...err....talented." ^_^

In the video, you'll get a better look at them, as they walked right in front of me at around 00:53.

Experience a HK movie shoot atmosphere as the assistants shooed away onlookers and kept shouting "the shoot is about to begin", "please stand back" and "do not use flash, PLEASE!"

Hong Kong Celebrity Sightings - Vincy & Sherman


Hmmm...they aren't exactly super famous, but they did have quite a bunch of crazy fans screaming out their names. They were there to judge a singing contest, organised by TVB.


Just like most celeb sightings...they were very tiny and skinny in person, although just as pretty.
To those who don't know who they are (and I am not surprised):
Left = Vincy Chan, she has a beautiful singing voice, used to look weird but now she's all HK-B- list-celeb polished
Right = Sherman Chung, I don't know much about her, apart from her hip hop look and dance skills

Hmm...interestingly, why do I NOT know who the hot guy on the right is...
A kind reader and a bunch of my friends told me that the hot guy is William, a winner of a singing competition, and a member of Sun Boyz, a boy band. He looks kinda delicious, doesn't he?

Gosh, I am too old for this.
