​Hong Kong actor-singer Ambrose Hui, whose Chinese name is Xu Shaoyang, was quite the heartthrob back in the noughties, and is best known for starring in 2001 Taiwanese idol drama Lavender. 

The 45-year-old has been working in China where he dabbles with live streaming, and also makes the occasional public performance.

​A netizen recently shared photos of Ambrose singing at an an event in a mall in China. 

The netizen said that a small stage was set up that day and the singer's pictures were plastered on both sides of the platform. 

However, the turnout, while made up of enthusiastic fans, was embarrassing to say the least. Feeling sorry for Ambrose, some netizens also asked why he would even bother to perform at such a small event.

It was then revealed by some netizens that Ambrose gets paid at least 200K yuan (S$40K) for each gig.

"He definitely should take on such jobs then," wrote one enlightened netizen. "Sing a few songs and put tens of thousands in your pocket? Why not?" said another.

​Just last week, TVB stars Yoyo Chen, 40, and Vincent Wong, 39, who got married in 2011, had to deny yet again that they are divorced.

Hong Kong media reported that Yoyo actually filed for divorce four years ago. 

However, she was forced by TVB to stay silent about the divorce. The reason? The broadcaster wanted to protect the reputation of Vincent, whom they were promoting as an all-round nice guy, and were worried that any scandal would affect his popularity. 

It was then claimed that Yoyo and Vincent continued to live in the same building but in units on different floors so as to hide the split from the public.

​That's not the end of the scandal.

When rumours of their divorce made headlines last week, it's said that the bosses of TVB were certain that someone had deliberately leaked the news. And the person they suspected was Yoyo herself. 

According to the reports, the actress was set to star in new drama You Are Not Her (你不是她) alongside Karl Ting, 25, but has since been replaced by Crystal Fung, apparently because she has offended the powers-that-be at TVB.

Yoyo has since responded to the casting news on her IG, writing: "I've always led an upright life. I've always been respectful in whatever I do. I live a carefree life, and I have a clear conscience. When it comes to these rumours and gossip, I just laugh it off."

She then added the hashtags "The media actually believes that I can play the love interest of a 25-year-old!", "I am really that young?" and "I have never received news of my participation in a new drama".

​Some may know Hong Kong actress Karena Ng, 28, as one of the female leads in 2020 drama Iron Ladies, while others know her best for dating Raymond Lam, 42, for five years.

They broke up in 2018, and Karena has since been linked to a number of other potential squeezes including this billionaire businessman.

Then there are those who probably know Karena for her daring fashion choices, including this va-va-voom dress she wore on the red carpet.

Recently, Karena, who appears to be on holiday, has been posting a number of pictures on her social media, as one usually does while on vacation.

However, netizens had a lot to say about her posts, and some of them were just downright rude.

When Karena shared this picture on her Xiaohongshu account, netizens leaped to leave negative comments, with one comparing her to American model Hailey Bieber, laughing that Karena’s figure is "as flat as Hailey’s".

Another commented that Karena’s breasts appeared to be "saggy", and suggested that she “wear a bra” to mitigate it.

​Of course, Karena was not going to let these rude comments slide.

The actress directly replied one of the comments, shutting them down with just six words — “So what if I don’t like [wearing a bra]?”

Thankfully, the hateful comments were in the minority, and many others praised Karena, commenting that she looks way happier and healthier now after putting on some weight.

“You were too thin before this, but you look better now,” one wrote, while another wrote: “She has a good figure, she’s living life healthily. Being as thin as a piece of paper is not the only choice [for celebs]”.

​Are Blackpink's Jennie, 26, and BTS' V (Kim Taehyung) dating? That's a question we've been hearing a lot in the past few months. 

Not long ago, a picture of the two reportedly in a car together on Jeju Island went viral, sparking rumours that the two stars are now an item.

Then on Aug 23, a Twitter account shared a picture (see below) that is allegedly taken by Jennie. In the pic, V could be seen getting styled while Jennie is at the back snapping the photo.

Less than 24 hours later, the same Twitter account posted another photo of the two.

In the picture, a man, who is presumably V, could be seen leaning against a woman, who is said to be Jennie. He is using his phone, while she snaps a mirror selfie. 

According to observant fans, the mirror has been spotted in a number of V's older photos, leading to speculation that the abovementioned pic was taken at the BTS member's house. 

On top of that, it's said that Jennie is now in New York promoting Blackpink's upcoming album. V is also reportedly in the Big Apple for work.

In response to the rumours, Blackpink's agency YG Entertainment said: “BLACKPINK will depart [Korea] on August 25, and they will be busy taking on a tight schedule in the United States including the MTV Video Music Awards performance as well as promotional activities for their second full-length album.”

​Fans of V and Jennie have expressed scepticism about the pics, with some claiming that the pics were in fact photoshopped.  

Some fans have also warned Jennie to be wary of the people around her seeing that there's a high chance that the pics, if they prove to be real, were leaked by someone close to her.

​Taiwanese actor Patrick Lee, 42, who registered his marriage with his non-celeb girlfriend on July 6 this year, recently took to his Instagram with a video of his wife, who was dressed in a camisole top and shorts, walking out of a Starbucks outlet.

Sounds pretty normal, right? But well, towards the end of the video, as Patrick’s wife stops in her tracks to enter the car, two men, who looked like they were there with their families, turned their heads to check her out.

In his caption, which we believe is meant to be tongue-in-cheek, Patrick wrote: “[To] these two dads… could you focus your attention on your two wives who are walking ahead of you instead?  This is my wife, I apologise.”

He also added in the video, addressing the two guys: “You brought your own [wives too]… couldn’t you just look at your own [wives] instead.”

Netizens were pretty tickled by Patrick’s post, with many calling him a “lucky guy” for having such a hot wife.

However, comments left by other netizens on the articles written by Taiwanese media who picked up the story were less complimentary. Patrick took to his Instagram a day later to call out some of these comments, calling it a “handpicked selection of today’s crazy comments”.

“Do you mean that [us guys] can’t look at all? Then ask [your wife] not to go out then, you’re making it look as if you’re the emperor and your wife’s the empress. Celebs should be moderate [in their behaviour],” one comment read.

“This is hilarious, what if the other party just happened to move their head in [your wife’s] direction. Don’t be so egoistical,” another netizen wrote.

​Chinese actress Zhang Tian Ai, 33, dropped a massive bombshell on social media, accusing her now ex-boyfriend, actor Xu Kaicheng, 32, of cheating on her. 

Xu Kaicheng shot to fame after starring in 2019 drama Well-Intended Love (奈何BOSS要娶我) and his profile was raised further when he was rumoured to be dating Tian Ai.

Though the couple never went public with their relationship, when Tian Ai participated in Sisters Who Make Waves earlier this year, Kaicheng posted a message on social media to cheer her on. 

However, Kaicheng was recently photographed by Chinese paparazzi visiting actress Gulinazha’s house on several occasions, including on Qixi Festival (Aug 4), which is known as Chinese Valentine’s Day. 

As such, rumours quickly spread that Tian Ai and Kaicheng have broken up.

Netizens also started speculating that Kaicheng had cheated on Tian Ai. It didn't help that Tian Ai's manager had reposted an article titled “10 common attributes of scumbags”, along with this caption: “Ladies, please wipe your eyes clean this summer.” 

Then came Tian Ai's post, which basically echoed what her manager had written. She also attached a sound clip to her post, which was a recording of her phone call with Kaicheng. 

In the clip, Kaicheng admitted to having sex with a woman  while drunk at a friend’s house. He said he felt terrible about what he did and grovelled for Tian Ai to forgive him. 

Tian Ai then asked him: “So the thing that’s torturing you is this? It has nothing to do with a contract that prohibits you from announcing [our] relationship?” 

Kaicheng then admitted that he was unwilling to go public with their relationship because he was scared that news of him being unfaithful would leak.

He was heard blaming himself and saying things such as “I can’t accept this [version of] myself”, “I think I’m too weak” and “I really hate myself”. 

An annoyed Tian Ai then told Kaicheng that the news was too much of a shock for her and she needed time to calm down and gather her thoughts. 

Kaicheng could then be heard begging Tian Ai to return to him. “Please come back! I live in misery everyday and I blame myself!” he cried, while proclaiming that the actress is the “right one” for him.

Half an hour after the clip was posted, Gulinazha also took to Weibo to address the allegations from netizens that she was the other woman.

She wrote: “[I] am not a third party. I was not one before, I am not one now, and I will never be! Regarding the news of your cheating, I never dared to believe that you are a liar! This recording allowed me to see you for who you truly are!”

Netizens have crucified Kaicheng for his actions. 

“Men who don’t love themselves are like rotten vegetables”, “Does he think he’s being very sentimental” and “[People] who are really drunk don’t engage in sexual behaviours, he’s so good at finding excuses for himself” were just some of the comments on Tian Ai's post. 

One netizen also wrote: “It’s 2022, are there still people using being drunk as an excuse for their infidelity?”

Kaicheng has since posted an apology to his Weibo.

In the post, he listed the details of the breakup between him and Tian Ai and apologised for "neglecting" her feelings, which resulted in a "misunderstanding". 

​He also extended his apology to Gulinazha for implicating her in the matter. He then expressed his regret at disappointing his fans, promising to take time to "reflect", so he wouldn't hurt more "innocent parties". 

Kaicheng is now one of the most-searched names on Chinese social media sites, with many of his fans saying that they can't bring themselves to support him anymore. 

Taiwanese host Dee Hsu’s husband, businessman Mike Hsu, 51, has been accused of cheating on her yet again.

Recently, veteran Taiwanese paparazzo Ge Siqi shared in a live broadcast that Mike has a habit of frequenting nightclubs. He then went on to show pics of Mike drinking with three women.

Yes, this is the same paparazzo who exposed pics of Barbie Hsu’s ex husband Wang Xiaofei’s philandering ways.

In one of the photos, Mike was seen chatting with a pan-Asian-looking woman. He had a drink in one hand and the other wrapped around the woman’s waist. In another pic, his hand was around her shoulders.

Though the pair appeared very close, Siqi noted that Mike did not cross the line and just appeared to be in a good mood after a few drinks.

In response to the rumour, Dee, 44, said: “My husband is not a public figure. In future, I will not respond to any questions about him. Thank you."

Mike also issued a similar statement, saying he will not comment on the rumours.

Dee took to social media to share pics of herself holidaying with Mike and their two younger daughters, Lily, 14, and Alice, 10. Their eldest daughter Elly, 16, "had something on".

​In her post, Dee said this was their last vacation for the summer holidays and they went outlet shopping and visited attractions like the Xpark Aquarium in Taoyuan.

And though they spent the entire day at the safari-themed Leofoo Village yesterday, Dee said she and Alice did not get sunburned thanks to their protective suits which “saved” them from the harsh sun.

In one of the pics, Dee was seen dressed in neon yellow sweat pants and a matching hoodie, which was zipped all the way up, shielding her face. Only her hands were exposed.

Posing beside her was Alice in a matching yellow outfit. Instead of wearing the hoodie over her head, she donned a huge yellow visor and face mask, which almost completely covered her face.

he outfits might have saved them from the harsh rays, but not curious stares.

“Passers-by kept looking at me. They must be thinking, ‘Her clothes…’ wrote Dee.

We would be thinking the same thing too.

Netizens could not help but poke fun at Dee and Alice, comparing them to fluorescent light sticks, highlighters and even aliens.

There were comments like “So wild”, “Only Alice would entertain you”, and “Aren’t you drawing too much attention to yourself?”.

When Dee replied that no one could tell it’s her in that suit, netizens pointed out that her tote bag, which she’s been using for years, is a giveaway.

“When I see that bag, I know it’s you,” wrote one fan, while another said: “Please, when we see you walking with your husband and kids, it’s difficult to not realise it’s you.”

​Comedy legend Stephen Chow, 60, has launched the careers of many stars.

From his leading ladies like Zhang Yuqi (The Mermaid) and Eva Huang (Kung Fu Hustle) to his supporting cast like Fight Back to School's Wong Yat San.

​And how can we forget young actress Xu Jiao, who in a stroke of casting genius, played Stephen's son in sci-fi comedy CJ7 in 2008. 

Xu Jiao was only 10 when she starred as Dicky, a cheeky young boy who befriends an alien. It was her first movie role, and in 2020, she revealed in an interview that making the movie was traumatic for her.

14 years later, Xu Jiao, who was a student at the Art Center College of Design in California, has blossomed into a beautiful 25-year-old woman. 

And like every person her age, she is active on social media and often shares selfies and pics of herself.

Recently, Xu Jiao took to Weibo to post a series of photos from a shoot she did with a bridal boutique.

Looking stunning in a baby pink gown, netizens were blown away by Xu Jiao's amazing glow up.

​On Jul 22, Taiwanese star Jimmy Lin, 47, and his six-year-old son, Jenson, were involved in a car accident in Taoyuan City. It was reported that the star's Tesla burst into flames after crashing into a signpost.

Bystanders then helped pull father and son out of the vehicle, and they were taken to Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital for treatment.

At that time, Jimmy's brother said that the star, who sustained fractures on his face and body, had regained consciousness and was able to engage in simple conversations.

It was also reported that Jimmy would be undergoing surgery, though his manager declined to reveal more information about the operation. 

However, Hong Kong media recently claimed that the actor’s condition worsened after undergoing a facial operation, and even said that he currently has to be fed through a nasogastric tube. 

Jimmy's management initially said they would not comment on the rumours. However, they issued a statement, saying: "The patient is currently recovering. About the rumours that have been going around the past few days, please do not fabricate news and spread falsehoods. If there are updates we will inform everyone, thank you for your concern."

On top of that, the head of hospital shared that Jimmy's treatment was a success, and the star had already gone home to recuperate. The doctor also said Jimmy was never fed through a nasogastric tube. 

​Ex TVB actor Jason Chan, 44, recently went on an epic adventure in the UK, touring places such as London, Cornwall, Wales, Swansea and Manchester, eventually documenting his three-month journey in a series of YouTube videos. 

According to Jason, although he was born in England and lived there for 25 years, he did not get the opportunity to explore the country and came up short when asked by others about his experience living there. 

After listening to stories from his father, who still resides in England, Jason decided to satisfy his curiosity and learn more about life in the UK. There was one drawback though, he had to leave his wife of six years, actress Sarah Song, 37, and their sons Damon, four, and Jamie, two, back in Hong Kong.

In one of his videos, Jason talked about the two-star hotel he was staying in London.

He started off by explaining the differences between the hotels back home and the one he was staying in. He paid £275 (S$453) per night for his room, which he said is a lot more expensive compared to Hong Kong. In fact, everything in the UK is pricier. 

“Every morning when I sit on the toilet, [I think about] how lucky we are in Hong Kong. It’s so beautiful, so efficient,” said Jason, before zooming in on a rusty and broken dustbin in the bathroom. 

“A two-star hotel in Hong Kong, even a one-star hotel or a zero-star hotel wouldn’t have such a rusty dustbin,” he added.

Jason then went to Burger King where he bought a burger for £8.70 (S$14.30).

“I’m so conflicted. I chose a two-star hotel to save money [but] a burger next door is £8. What do I do?” Jason said, while considering how frugal he had to be on the trip.

Jason’s next location however, proved how hard it is to be thrifty in London. 

He drove to Oxford Street, presumably in a family car, and said he was shocked that the parking costs him £9 (S$15) an hour. 

On top of that, he had to pay for a congestion charge of £15 (S$25).

After three hours, his driving and parking fees amounted to a whopping £42 (S$69).

​Jason graduated from TVB’s 20th Artist Training Class in 2006, and went on to be a host on the broadcaster's English-language channel, Pearl. 

He also appeared in a number of dramas, including Only You (2011) and Daddy Dearest (2016) but never had the luck to get cast in a breakout role. 

Jason left TVB in 2018 and has been focusing on his YouTube channel, which he shares with his wife.

Apart from his UK videos, Jason and Sarah also create content about their daily lives and their kids as well. 

Jason has since returned to Hong Kong, but you can watch his travel vlog below to find out more about his adventures .
