Raymond Lam clarifies did not get 'jumpy' when holding Tavia Yeung's hand

Yesterday afternoon, Raymond Lam attended a Office Windows 2010 promotional event in West Kowloon. The temperature yesterday hit 34 degrees C, under the hot weather, he went on a helicopter and then held the ceremony at an open area. Raymond appeared to be sweating heavily on his back. Asked if his pay for this event is very high? Raymond did not answer directly, he only expressed that he's afraid of heights. He said: "I just looked at the scenery up in the air constantly. Usually at shopping mall events, I can't even look down the glass window on the 2nd or 3rd floor. But when shooting for costume series, I would get so into my heroic character that I'm not afraid anymore. One time when I was filming a modern series, I had to stick out half of my body of a 30+ floor building to save someone, I was really scared that time because it was modern, can't fly."

In Raymond's series (The Mysteries of Love), there was one part where he grabbed Tavia Yeung's hand and appeared 'jumpy' (TN: The Cantonese slang: "Dung L"). However yesterday at the event, flying up so high, he did not have that kind of reaction. He said: "That is absolutely not the case. Just that day during filming, the pants the crew gave me to wear was too tight, it was so tight that I couldn't buckle it together. Also, I believe it's a camera angle issue."

Late July, Raymond will be holding a concert in HK Coliseum. He reveals that he already recorded the theme song. He said: "This song is the sexiest one I sang so far. The meaning is beautiful and also very bold, I am personally looking forward to the performance. In my upcoming album, there will be many different genres and changes in my singing. "Asked if he's afraid of getting off-tune during his live singing? He said: "Not afraid! But forgetting the lyrics is what I fear most because I have to sing and dance at the same time."

[ORIENTAL DAILY] Tavia Yeung supports that Raymond Lam didn't get 'jumpy'. Tavia smiled: "I want to clarify for him, it was his pants that was too tight and he couldn't change it. He didn't get jumpy. This is the dignity of a man, a good thing. If he did then I would have moved away out fo sight. He didn't make an unwise move!" (Held your hand and got jumpy, you really are Sai Lei Mui!) It has nothing to do with me, nor does it have anything to do with him. It's the tight pants!"

Raymond Lam hot dance killing men and women

SuperVoice Hong Kong Coliseum Concert ended perfectly the night before yesterday. Guests who attended were such as " Fuk Luk Sau", Elisa Chan, and Raymond Lam. Louis Yuen, Wong Cho Lam, and Johnson Lee imitated the "evil" looks of Grasshopper, causing the event to be merrier.

Raymond Lam on the other hand hot danced with sexy female dancers and half naked male dancers killing both men and women. When asked about the reports saying that he snatched the dates for booking Hong Kong Coliseum from the Miss Hong Kong event, cable TV sent representative to clarify the matter saying, " Miss Hong Kong and Raymond's concert are different dates, there is no such thing as snatching the dates. There are some technical problems now, so Miss Hong Kong is not necessarily going to be held in Hong Kong Coliseum."

Linda Chung doesn't know Raymond Lam is Har Gau Chai

Earlier, there were reports by a magazine that Raymond Lam has a change in features, his chin getting sharper which looks like a shrimp dumpling (har gau). Rumoured girlfriend Linda Chung was present at a Po Leung Kuk event yesterday and was asked if she met Har Gau Chai recently. She misunderstood that Har Gau Chai is Kelly Chen's son and praised that he is very cute. Later she found out that the reporters meant Raymond Lam by saying Har Gau Chai, she laughed and said, Oh! You all are saying about the one with prince disease!"

Linda Chung admitted that she read the reports about Raymond Lam have a plastic surgery done. Because there are just problems with the angle of the pictures, she stressed that sometimes she can appear to have a shrimp dumpling chin too.

Perfect appearance, doesn't believe plastic surgery was done

Does she believe that Raymond really did plastic surgery to get his chin done? She said, " This is people's decision. I don't know. It's been very long since I met Raymond, but I believe he never did plastic surgery, he is already perfect, there is no need for it!" Linda was asked if she likes guys with shrimp dumpling chin, she happily said, " I feel it's very cute!" The reporters laughed and asked if Raymond did plastic surgery because of Linda, she laughed and said, " There are many foreigners who have shrimp dumpling chins too. She was asked if her the opposite sex has a shrimp dumpling chin, would she have better remarks of him, she only said, " So funny", and did not respond to the question.


Might have 3 kids in the future

Linda Chung expressed that she likes children, earlier she also sponsored a child through Po Leung Kuk but has not met up yet. Since she likes children so much, how many would she have in future, she said, " I always wanted to have more than 2 children, maybe 3!" Girl or boy doesn't matter, but I think grandmothers usually like grandson." When does she plan to have children? Linda said that she still have some time, " 1 in every year, I still have alot of time. Technology is so advanced today, older age ladies can have children too!"


Raymond Lam: Maybe the reports will say that I have breast implant

Raymond Lam appeared at Super Voice Hong Kong Coliseum concert yesterday, he was asked about the reports about his plastic surgery, he laughed and said, " I feel that the reports were hilarious, maybe I develop muscles, they will say that I have breast implant to be E cup God."

Raymond Lam & Tavia Yeung support new series, absolutely no plagiarism

TVB new series "The Mysteries of Love" have been strongly criticized by Netizens that the story plagiarized from Japanese drama "Detective Galileo". Regardless of the criticisms, the TV ratings have not been affected with many local TV series fans supporting the series. The first episode received 32 points on average. Yesterday the cast and crew held a celebration for the good ratings, Raymond Lam and Tavia Yeung both supported the series expressing that the series had no plagiarism elements. Raymond supported the creativity, while Tavia felt that the love story is richer than the original version.

Raymond said: "For series, coming and going is the same few genres. The script to our series is quite creative, before shooting we were already criticized to have plagiarized, but the most important thing is that every role is portrayed differently and that audience like it." Have you seen the original Japanese drama? "No, I usually don't watch originals or remakes, otherwise my acting may slightly resemble the original. You have to tailor the character with your own style, including my older series "A Step Into the Past" is the same. Currently the producer is not encouraging us to watch it because the story is different."

Tavia said that when they started filming this series, people were already saying that the series is a copy. Although she hasn't seen the original, she still does not feel the series is a copy. Also the love story of the main leads in "Mysteries" is richer. Is she afraid Netizens might boycott the series? Tavia said: "No, since the first day people already said the two dramas are similar."

Kelana Jaya Seafood Restaurant @ Port Klang

Had a good Friday yesterday filled with food...yummy yummy.......

Thanks to Vincent, Jolane and I manage to go to Port Klang to eat seafood at Kelana Jaya Seafood Restaurant....

We ordered 3 dishes (prawn, crab and vege). Food wise, so so only....Mayb we chose the wrong restaurant as we didn't know which one to go to.........

.

Sizzling prawn (RM 20)

All 3 of us were too lazy to de-shell the prawns ourselves, thus we orderred the shelled prawns. Dissapointed with this dish cause the prawns were not really fresh.... Weird, they add in dry mushrooms into it, which I don't think it is necessary.

.

Pacific clam fried with "Choi Tam" (RM 15)
Taste not bad nor good.....Just normal. They were quite stingy with the pacific clams. Think there were only about 6 of them.
.

Local crab cooked in wet Butter style (RM 38)

Saviour of the day....This is the only dish that we liked. The crabs were fresh and the wet butter taste just right...YummyYum.....


Fried Man Tou (RM 4.50)
We ordered the man tous' to wallop the butter sauce............Good decision..muahaha
.
Total damage:
Including drinks = RM 82.60 (good thing that they did not charge tax and the rice were free)
