Yesterday, Joe Ngai Jan and Jo Kuk Jo Lam attended the "OSIM I'm Scared of a Long Summer" event in Tsim Sha Tsui. The both of them said they're recently trying to lose weight in order to welcome summer. Joe indicated that after he had invested in the pool hall, he would often have to interact with the customers and would need to drink beer, which recently caused him to have a chubbier face and have a big belly. His girlfriend Vivian Chow didn't complain about his weight gain, but he didn't feel satisfied with his own body shape.

Earlier, Joe made public a naked photo of himself with his cat covering the important part of his body. Lots of people talked about this photo during that time period. Actually, Joe is secretly planning to take a second set of naked photos after he gets his body back into shape. He said, "Last time I was skinny and dry, and kind of made me look old. Now my body shape is like those rich fat people, with a kind looking face. Wait for me to get back into shape, and then I'll take the photos again!"

Vivian will appear as a mature lady and won't be wearing low cut dresses at her concert
(abridged version of actual article)


Vivian gave advance notice that she would be appearing at her concert dressed more mature and feminine.

 

Vivian Chow, Miriam Yeung Chin Wa, Alex Fong Lik San, and Stephy Tang Lai Yan were the guest award presenters at "The 17th Annual Best Television Index - Best Show Award Presentation" yesterday.

Vivian and the Korean consul general presented the award for the TV program "Jewel in the Palace Short Story." In recent years, Vivian seldom watched TV series and hasn't seen "Jewel in the Palace" (Daai Cheung Gam), but she knows "Jewel in the Palace" is a very good TV series, and she will take some time later to watch this series.

When talking about her upcoming concert in May, Vivian laughed saying that friends which she had little contact with on an ordinary day are recently all coming out and taking the initiative to help her think of ideas for her show, and to also ask her for tickets to the concert. She was asked if they suggested that she wear the low-cut palace dress. She said, "Nobody said this. This time I'll be dressed more mature and feminine." She was asked if anyone has told her to sing together with her boyfriend. She said, "Everyone really wants him to go on stage, but if he doesn't sing, then I don't know what else he can do. Usually he seems to be a very daring person, but when he's on stage, he feels uncomfortable, so I won't force him to sing."

Yesterday (3/17) at "The 17th Annual Best Television Index - Best Show Award Presentation," Vivian Chow, Alex Fong Lik San, Miriam Yeung Chin Wa, and Stephy Tang Lai Yan were the guest award presenters.

Recently, Vivian Chow has been busy preparing for her 2 concerts in May. After having a few meetings, the song run down for her concert has already been decided, but there are still many small details which are in the planning process. As for guest performers at the concert, Vivian said, "I will invite some important people who have been with me for many years during my maturing stage of my entetainment career to appear at my concert." She was asked if she would invite her boyfriend Joe Ngai Jan on stage to sing with her. She honestly said, "I know my fans would like to see him on stage, but I'm worried that if I invite him on stage and he doesn't sing, then I don't know what to plan for him to do." She also laughed saying that although Joe is usually very daring, when he's on stage, he feels uncomfortable, so she doesn't want to force him to sing with her.

Years ago, Vivian wore a sexy palace dress, which left a deep impression in the people's mind. She was asked if she would be wearing this dress at her concert this time. She said, "There hasn't been anyone who told me I would need to wear this dress. Actually, I would like to show off a mature side of myself this time, so I will be wearing mostly mature, feminine clothes." The 2 concert shows are being held in order to raise money for the Non-Profit making Veterinary Clinic. Vivian was asked if she has thought about adding shows. She honestly said it would depend on the scheduling. Now many of her relatives and friends have been asking her for tickets. So many people are asking Vivian for concert tickets that there might be a problem getting all those tickets, which is causing her to have a headache.

Leon Lai and Gaile Lok playing pool
(abridged version of actual article)



2/23/06
Gaile Lok shot the ball but missed the pocket, so she cried for help, as an excuse to act like a spoiled child at her boyfriend.

 

Leon Lai and Gaile Lok Gei Yi are madly in love. After it was revealed that they were secretly dating last year in November, both of them have become open with their relationship and are often showing affection towards each other in public. It's rumored Leon told the people at his side that 25 year-old Gaile was good in bed and would do all kinds of actions and not be lazy, making Leon feel very high and going crazy.

Last month on the 23rd at night, Leon and Gaile went out on a date. Both of them went to Joe Ngai Jan's pool hall located at the King's Hotel and played pool for fun. When Leon discovered that there was a reporter taking pictures, he actually didn't stop the reporter. Leon and Gaile even did what the reporter wanted, showing their love for each other, as if it was a reality show.

Leon didn't have to work that night, so he went out with his girlfriend; and in order to comply with her boyfriend who always wants her to be by his side, Gaile would often not show up to work and would ditch her classes to strive for more time to stay at Leon's home, so she could take care of her boyfriend at anytime.

However, sometimes it can get boring when playing at home a lot. Last month on the 23rd, Leon brought Gaile out to play and also asked his good friend Mark Lui Chung Tak and Mark's girlfriend Jade Leung to go play pool at the pool hall which Joe Ngai Jan opened, called Joe's Billiards & Bar.

At 10:00 at night, Leon, who looked very tired and had dark circles under his eyes, and his girlfriend Gaile met up with Mark at the pool hall. Since the pool hall was quite busy that night, there weren't any other open pool tables available, so the 4 of them took turns playing at one table. Leon has good pool playing skills. When he saw that Gaile wasn't playing so well, he personally tried to teach her how to play.

  Every night, Leon had his girlfriend to play with. Leon looks so worn out that the bags and dark circles under his eyes appeared. One phrase says it all, the years of a person's life makes one feel old fast!
   
  When Leon saw that his girlfriend Gaile wasn't playing pool so well, he immediately went to her side to teach her, and made her feel happy again.

Welcomes reporter to take as many pictures as desired
When they were at the pool hall, Leon discovered that there was a reporter taking pictures. Although Leon sent his driver to walk over to the reporter to ask some questions, Leon didn't stop the reporter from taking lots of pictures and didn't get angry. Also, Leon and Gaile did the full show, as they frequently flirted with each other. When he saw his girlfriend miss the shot, he would have a big reaction and would show a strange facial expression, making Gaile laugh the whole night.

They played until 11:30PM, and at that time, the lady boss of the pool hall Vivian Chow appeared. When Leon saw Vivian show up, of course he wouldn't pass up the chance of playing a friendly game of pool with the lady boss. Gaile was suddenly ignored by her boyfriend and she felt discontented, but all she could do was just stand in the back to watch. She was pouting as she watched Leon play pool with the Jade Girl (Vivian). Seeing her boyfriend completely concentrate on playing pool with another woman and having lots of fun playing, Gaile finally couldn't stand it, so she did something about it.

Gaile ordered a big dish of french fries. At first she looked bored eating the french fries by herself, but the minute she saw Leon have some free time, she took the french fry that she had been eating, which also had her saliva on it, and put the french fry in Leon's mouth. She successfully led Leon back to paying attention to her.

After Leon played 2 games with Vivian, he obediently returned to Gaile's side, and the two of them continued to play pool. They played until 2:00AM, and then had the driver take them back to their home in Happy Valley.

  At 11:30PM, the lady boss Vivian Chow appeared, and Leon immediately asked Vivian to play a friendly game of pool.
   
  Leon was paying attention to playing pool with Miss Chow and was ignoring his girlfriend. All Gaile could do was just look bored eating french fries by herself to vent her discontent.
   
  The minute Leon had free time, Gaile would immediately feed Leon some french fries, successfully attracting his attention.
   
  Leon has good pool playing skills. He played 2 games of pool against Vivian, and he won both of them.

Improve their relationship while doing exercise
When dating, it's not always necessary to stay at home to do 'indoor exercises' to make things interesting. Sometimes going outdoors to do exercises together is better for their bodies.

  Joe and Vivian playing pool

Joe has loved playing American pool for many years. Recently he even opened a pool hall "Joe's Billiards & Bar" with two of his friends at the King's Hotel. Vivian joined in on Joe's interest and also participated in the "American Pool 8-Ball League." The two of them go to the pool hall everyday, playing pool and going out on a date at the same time.
