Kelly Chen's most unforgettable red packet experience: at Hacken's concert

Every year Kelly Chen takes a week off at Chinese New Year to take a holiday to recharge, but this year she decided to stay in HK and spend some quality time with her family. On the first day of the New Year, I visit my mother's family and kow-tow to them. The children are then given lucky packets!

When talking about lucky packets, Kelly's biggest red packet was $HK10,000 from her mother, as she had bought many presents for her aunties that year. As for Kelly's most unforgettable red packet experience? She said that it was when she was guest performer at Hacken Lee's 2006 concert. She received a few hundred lucky packets whilst singing with him, and afterwards, Hacken told her to stay on stage to keep receiving lucky packets so he could keep singing! It was definately very funny and an experience she wont forget.

Singers to re-sing Leslie Cheung's and Anita Mui's golden classics in the fight against piracy

Tony Leung Chiu Wai, the ambassador of Hong Kong's Entertainment Expo for 3 years in a row, has just helped promote a short film by Eric Kot Man Fai. It will be shown in many of Hong Kong's cinemas and outdoor screens. The Expo will begin on the 20th March and end on the 14th of April with the motto: the whole city gets into it and gives its full support. At the moment, Tony Leung is in Japan with Carina Lau skiing but will be present at the press conference on the 1st March. At this time, it will be difficult for them to avoid questioning over the gossip of Carina Lau and the Tawainese Kwok Chi Ming.
