So leng chai......hehe..............RAYMOND Lam Fung is one guy who makes heads turn when he enters a room. The phrase “tall, dark and handsome” was indeed coined with men like him in mind. Hong Kong TVB artiste Raymond Lam Fung was in Malaysia last week. The Hong Kong artiste showed his quirky side as he matched a fitted black jacket and pristine white shirt with tapered pants, which revealed that he was not wearing socks. That image alone got all the photographers happily snapping away. What was the reason for this particular getup? “This outfit is actually styled according to the occasion. The suit jacket is befitting the event, but since Malaysia is quite hot, I’m wearing ‘short’ pants instead,” quipped Lam, setting a light-hearted mood for the afternoon.

..........Arguably Hong Kong Television Broadcast’s (TVB) hottest male lead in recent years, Lam was speaking at a media conference introducing him as the brand ambassador for local beverage Power Root Alicafe Premium Gold. This makes him the first Chinese and international star to be appointed as a spokesperson for the home-grown brand, which is available in 16 countries. Targetted at the Chinese market, the Premium Gold series is a new blend of coffee with ginseng extract (Alicafe) and marine collagen (Per’l Cafe).

..........The 29-year-old actor-singer was very happy that the collaboration brought him to one of his favourite countries – Malaysia – to promote his favourite drink (coffee.) The coffee lover shared how he came to love coffee and how he would enjoy a cuppa on a daily basis. “My love for coffee probably stemmed from the time I was studying in high school and had a singing teacher who loved drinking coffee. “For me, nothing can substitute coffee. Personally, I like to make my own brew using ground coffee beans and enjoy my cuppa while listening to music. But, my working schedule does not permit such luxuries that often.”

..........Ray is celebrating his 10th year in showbiz with his first concert. The two-day gig will be held in Hong Kong Coliseum on June 17 and 18. Gearing up for his concert, Lam has all his own songs on repeat in his CD player. “I’ve been listening to my songs only as I need to memorise all the lyrics. Having released Cantopop albums Finding Love in Memories (2007) and Your Love (2008), Lam currently is working on his third Cantonese album. “The new album is quite amusing as I’m trying to preserve my own style while exploring fresh musical direction. There will be a couple of R&B numbers, which is very unusual for Cantonese music.”

..........With such a packed schedule, what does he like to do to relax during his free time? “I like to go jogging but then I’ll still be practising my songs. I watch movies during flights. “Every minute and every second of my time, even when I’m resting, I’m actually working. I need to be at my best to take on upcoming challenges I’ve got for the next half of the year,” he groused cheekily.

..........Looking somewhat pensive, he mused hesitantly, “There are so many things I wish to learn, absorb and digest. “But, that would just gradually add more to all those things I have in hand. Yet, that’s a good thing and I do enjoy the process of my work.”
