The long-anticipated marriage of Hong Kong actors Carina Lau and Tony Leung will take place later this year.
Lau, 43, revealed the news on Saturday during a commercial appearance in the northeast Chinese city of Shenyang. The Taiwan media reported the pair would officially announce the wedding date during the red carpet show of the 61st Cannes Film Festival next month.
It’s said that Lau started planning the marriage with Leung, 46, when her father passed away two years ago. She hopes tying the knot with her boyfriend of 19 years will provide some comfort to her mother.

Jackie Chan Welcomes Olympic Flame To China
Date : 4 May 2008
[Photo] Jackie Chan (成龍) and a local government politician welcome the Olympic flame to China, 4 May 2008, Sanya, Hainan province. The torch is scheduled to visit every province in China before arriving in Beijing 6 August, a few days before the Olympics begin.
The Olympic torch today started its tour of mainland China, in Sanya, the southernmost city of Hainan province.
Jackie Chan (成龍), Zhang Ziyi (章子怡) and other celebrities, athletes and sponsors were among those who carried the touch in relay.
The flame was returning to China – after leaving Beijing 31 March and experiencing a controversial world tour that saw vocal, and sometimes violent, protests, over China’s human rights record and rule of Tibet, in many cities including Athens, London and San Francisco.
However, today, clad in red and bearing determined expressions, the pro-China groups vastly outnumbered the handful of protesters, reported BBC News.
The torch is scheduled to visit every province in China before arriving in Beijing 6 August, a few days before the Olympics begin. The torch will next travel to Guangdong province in south-east China.

Sister: Edison Chen Has Been Praying
Date : 4 May 2008
Edison Chen (陳冠希)’s big sister Trician Chen (陳見飛) today attended a promotional event to mark Mother’s Day at a shopping centre in Tai Po. Reporters bombarded Trician with questions about Edison and she answered candidly.
Trician, who had just returned to Hong Kong from Canada, revealed that she and Edison had been in Vancouver comforting their mum, who had been left shaken by the sex photos scandal.
Trician confirmed that recent newspaper rumours that Edison is a Christian are true. However, she denied that he only became a Christian because of the scandal.
She said: “Since the incident, he’s been praying every day.
“Because of the incident, Edison was very unhappy. He lost so much weight he looked 10 years older. But recently, when mummy and I saw him, he was very healthy. He has started eating and jogging again. He’s back to normal. Actually, he’s very positive.”
She revealed: “Our whole family are Christian. Edison became Christian first, and then the whole family followed. Ever since he was young, he went to a Christian school. He was baptized when he was at school.”
Asked whether or not Edison feels remorse about the scandal, Trician replied: “I do not know what Edison prays about.”
Trician also confirmed rumours that Edison is trying to break into Hollywood.
She said: “Edison is very busy in the United States with meetings, casting and has signed with the William Morris Agency.”
Trician added that Edison’s relationship with Vincy Yeung (楊永晴) is going strong and that the whole family fully supports the romance. She confirmed that Edison would return to Hong Kong if he was summoned to appear in court over the scandal. She said that she did not know anything about recent rumours that Edison is going to Africa as a PR stunt.

My Point Of View
Pray? as if that’s going to help. I can’t believe how he strayed from his Christian beliefs (If he’s really a true Christian). I am not bashing him, but I sincerely hope he repents.

It is reported that Nicholas has been asked to appear alongside his son in advertisements.
Last month, Nicholas, Cecilia and Lucas were photographed arriving back at Hong Kong airport. It was the first time that the whole family had been caught on camera in public since Cecilia was implicated by the Edison Chen (陳冠希) sex photos scandal in January.

HK Stars Run Olympic Torch Relay
Date : 2 May 2008
Andy Lau (劉德華), Jacky Cheung (張學友), Kelly Chen (陳慧琳), Leo Ku (古巨基), Eason Chan (陳奕迅) and Alex Fong (方力申) were today among the popstars who took part in the Hong Kong leg of the Olympic torch relay.
Windsurfer Lee Lai Shan (李麗珊), a gold medallist at the 1996 Atlanta Games, started the 120-person relay, which included athletes, officials, businesspeople and celebrities, through rainy streets of the city.
Tens of thousands of spectators lined the route which ran from the Hong Kong Cultural Centre, Tsim Sha Tsui, to the Golden Bauhinia Square, Wan Chai.
The Hong Kong leg marks the return of the torch to Chinese soil, after a controversial journey which saw vocal, and sometimes violent, protests, over China’s human rights record and rule of Tibet, in many cities including Athens, London and San Francisco.
The only tension in Hong Kong came at the start of the route, where police say 52,000 people gathered. Large groups of flag-waving torch supporters shouted insults at pro-Tibet and human rights protesters, forcing them to seek refuge in police vans, according to the Associated Press.
The torch now moves onto Macau, before making its way across mainland China, with the final destination Beijing on 6 August.

She shouted: “Don’t look!” to the delight of the audience.
Janice did not say much between songs, but did ask if anyone had come to the show on a date.
Below the stage, a gay male couple excitedly raised their hands.
Janice exclaimed: “Oh my God! Are you gay? That’s [a] good thing!”
In the aftershow party, Janice made sure to have a photo taken with the couple and praised them for being so honest about their sexuality.
