Hacken mistakes Han Hong for Brenda Lo
The night before last, Hacken Lee was present at the Gong Yik Kam Charity Show. A few days ago he was a guest at Sammi Cheng's concert and enjoyed her final song, admitting he was moved by it. Something embarassing also happened. He mistook female mainland singer Han Hong for Brenda Lo. He said "I've been diagnosed with 'mistaking other people syndrome'. This illness has been with me for 10 years and my colleagues already know that I frequently mistake people. At first I greeted Han Hong in Cantonese and felt that it was strange. If Han Hong hasn't left HK yet, hopefully she'll see this report and forgive me!"
Hacken said that in the past Theresa Lee took on the job to perform as guest for his 10 concerts but unfortunately later when he bumped into her on the street he could not recognise her. When asked whether he would be able to recognise his wife, he replied "At the moment it doesn't matter if I can recognise them or not, I'll greet them first. I'm getting old, I might need to improve my eyesight with blueberries."

Hacken & Cheung Tak Lan rehearse
Once Hacken asked his assistant to hold up the lyrics on a big board for him, but when he sang to that part of the song, his assistant still had not appeared. All he could do was wave at the audience. He once again mentioned Alan, saying that "When Alan forgets his lyrics, he turns his mic to the audience! The big boards with lyrics were made for him...but now even he's changed to use the Plasma TVs!"

(note from peggyjean: I'm going to apologize for skipping out the chunks of articles that don't relate to Hacken and also combining similar articles, and to say that for my translations I will be doing this from now on. I simply barely have enough time to translate Hacken's news, let alone other stars' news!)

Hacken, Jade Kwan @ 香港之最中西區
On 20th of May, Hacken and Jade Kwan appeared at the recording of 香港之最中西區
Hacken hurries home to be with "pregnant wife"
《香港之最中西區》was recorded last night, with singers such as Jade Kwan, Eric Suen and Hacken Lee appearing, as well as actors such as Anne Heung, Nancy Wu and Raymond Cho. With reports Hacken is soon to become a father, he was the media's focal point. At yesterday's rehearsal in the afternoon, Hacken went home immedaitely after rehearsals finished. When asked, he said he was going home to be with his wife, and said he should spend more time with her. When asked about whether he was about to become a father, Hacken said that like his new song "where have the flowers gone", he would not reply to the question, and reporters should find his new PR manager Alan Tam. Reporters then pointed out his voice was a bit raspy, and asked if he was sick, and should he be careful about passing it on to Emily who might be pregnant? Hacken sighed and said reporters should stop dragging all the topics together, asking htem to please change topics!
He said lately he was busy recording, and this time he had to sit to record, as Eric Kwok didn't want his songs too have too much "daan tin" (the field of energy inside each person).

Hacken accidentally let slip that his wife might be pregnant
To celebrate the 10th anniversary of HK returning to China, RTHK and CCTV have decided to organise a "Shenzhen-HK youth evening gathering" on 1st July at Shenzhen's Window of the World. Yesterday a media conference was held and public announcements were made regarding the event's activities. RTHK's Lee Chai Tong indicated at the event, all HK singers that took part in performing "After returning for 10 years, there's still You" themesong will all attend the party. At the time, Andy Lau and Yundi Lee will perform together. And there will be lot's of mainland performances. The venue can hold an audience up to 6000-7000 people.
Date of birth is predicted to be June/July
Alan Tam and Hacken Lee both attended the media conference. Hacken was once again chased about whether or not he can announce his wife's pregnancy, and he joked that the date of birth is predicted to be June/July. He is adament that he is talking about his new album, not having a baby. Alan says that it was only a few days ago that he ate dinner with the husband and wife and was asked whether he felt Emily's figure had changed. Alan said that he was late there and had to leave early so that Emily was seated the entire time and he couldn't tell.
Alan had publicly told Hacken to check whether his wife was pregnant by using frogs. When the two met, Hacken asked Alan how to use frogs to test for pregnancy and pointed out that he only knew how to use iceblocks. Alan explained "In the past, when using frogs, if the frog called out then that was the indication that there was a pregnancy." Reporters asked Hacken if he could announce the good news. He said that as it was the return of HK's big day, then everyone shouldn't go off topic. When reporters suggested that because it was a big day then there should be a new album to celebrate with, Hacken exclaimed that the date of birth was to be June/July and insisted that he was referring to his new album. Reporters also pointed out that Hacken has gained weight recently but Hacken said that he was busy with his new album and did not gain weight. Alan couldn't help but laugh that Hacken wasn't answering the questions that were being asked.
Alan exposes Hacken's Freudian slip
Hacken admitted that he understood everyone was caring for him and everyday he would see little dogs near his place, giving him a sense of security. When it reached the public, Hacken revealed that a lot of people were asking about the progress of his new album and even Liza Wang has asked a few times whether his new album would be out soon. Alan joked and asked Hacken whether the new album will be cute and if it would have hands or feet. Hacken said that as long as Liza was happy, he would thank everyone for caring and when the new album was ready for release, he would publicly announce it to the world. He doesn't think he will make June, so it will probably hit the streets in July. Recently has his wife been afraid of going outside? Hacken said she wasn't. Alan revealed that a few days earlier he had dinner with the couple and when asked about Emily's figure, he was smart and said that on the night he was late there and had to leave early. This meant that he only saw Emily sitting down and could not see her figure. Has he felt that Emily's eating habits have changed? He said he didn't notice anything special and Hacken added "These days it's different. There's nothing that's "forbidden". Alan exposed that Hacken had made a definate Freudian slip.

Cecilia Wong happily reveals that Emily is pregnant
Nat Chan's Olympics show was recording the night before last and guests included Shawn Yue, Monica Chan, Stephanie Cheng, Hins Cheung, Ivana Wong and Lawrence Cheng. Shawn Yue has alwys played basketball and he was full of confidence at the beginning of the show, and winning prizes by shooting baskets would be no hard task. All the other guests were relying on him to win and he failed 3 times. The first 2 times he only managed to get 1 basket out of 5 shots and so missed out on the prize. Nat Chan decided to loosen up the rules a bit and for Shawn's third and final chance, he was allowed to take a few steps forward. In the end he managed to get 3 baskets out of 5 shots, winning him and the other guests $5000 in prize money. No one left empty handed.
That night, Nat's other half Cecilia Wong was also watching the show. As for her birthday party earlier, it was said that Hacken and Emily were resting due to Emily's pregnancy and both declined the invitation. Reporters asked Cecilia for evidence and initially she replied "You go ask them!" but after more interrogation, she said "Of course I'm happy! (Do you know when the baby is due?) That I don't know! We haven't seen each other recently but we have talked over the phone. Her health is good. (Will you become the child's godmother?) No! I already have enough! (Have you prepared the baby's present yet?) When they got married I already gave them a big present! We should wait until they announce it themselves!"
On another note, Monica Chan reveals that she has been very unhappy recently. Of her 4 beloved dogs, two have passed away within a week of each other causing her to be very upset. It has also made her treasure the time she spends with her family. And so hearing that her father wanted to go to Jiu Zhai Gou for holidays, she planned to go with her whole family on vacation.
