Bosco Wong Shows off his Culinary Skills to Myolie

Bosco Wong and Myolie Wu have been rumoured lovers for a while and were recently reported to have spent the night together by a tabloid magazine. Filming yesterday for "Questioning Showbiz", Bosco was asked about this and he says that on that day, there was a big group of them who gathered at Myolie's home to cook and he left with his friends at around midnight and did not stay over. However, the press did not photograph him leaving and insisted that he stayed the night.

As for Myolie looking shocked when she drove him back, Bosco explains that on that night, a reporter suddenly appeared in the road to photograph them and anyone in that position would have been shocked. Was he frightened? He says: "I am used to it now, so I even put my head out for them to photograph me." That night, Bosco helped out with the cooking and made Italian Fried rice and everyone praised him for how good it tasted. He smiles: "She was dieting earlier, so now her weight has settled down, I made her something to eat. I am good at cooking and can cook Chinese and Western dishes. (Was Myolie moved to tears by your cooking?) This is not the first time I have cooked for a girl because I have cooked for my mother before, but I really don't mind cooking." He also insists that this was a normal social event and just a small incident, nothing of note. However, the night in question was the night preceding the wedding day of Myolie's sister Carrie and for Bosco to have been invited, does this mean he has been accepted as part of the family? Bosco says that he knows Myolie's sister, but she did not invite him to the wedding. He says that he does invite friends back to his own home for dinner but he has never invited Myolie: "One day, I will have a big feast at my house and I will invite her to see if she will come."

The magazine adds that Bosco is trying to date Natalie Tong behind Myolie's back, but he says: "Who can date so many people? Rumours are hard to avoid though and I will not think about it too much."

First Look at Miss Chinese International 2007

Miss Chinese International Pageant 2007 will be taking place in Foshan's New City Area on the 20th and the twenty contestants have arrived in Hong Kong to prepare in their secret training camp.

TVB arranged a press conference for the event at the Regal Airport Hotel for the girls to meet the media for the first time. Number 21 Zhao Ying Ying is suffering from problems with her visa and was unable to take part in the event. The girls appeared in beautiful evening gowns at the event and introduced themselves briefly on the stage in Cantonese. Most of the girls were very calm, with only Number 11 Chui Chuk Ji from Montreal and Number 17 Manila's Chan Heung Lei who were rather nervous. The latter seemed very stiff on the stage and when the reporters told her to relax, she stiffened up even more and forced a smile. The most confident on the stage was Number 13 Pang Mei Ling who hails from Calgary, who used to be a magazine model there, so she struck a number of poses on the stage for the press. Number 18 Chui Ji Suen from Auckland has looks that are not bad and she is full of confidence. Also catching the attention of the cameras at the event were Number 2 Hong Kong's Aimee Chan and the younger sister of last year's winner Ina Lu, Number 20 Lu Yi Huen from Johannesburg.

When the reporters asked Aimee if she was confident of bringing the crown back to Hong Kong she seemed lacking in confidence as she said: "I will just be myself and try my best." She says that she has entered the training camp with the other contestants and she is excited to share the experience with girls from around the world. She adds: "They are all beautiful in their own right, so I feel a bit of pressure, but to be able to meet so many people from different countries and learn from them is a great experience."

Lu Yi Huen indicated that if she could follow in her sister's footsteps and win the award, then she would be very happy and even if she does not win, then seeing her sister there will be a great encouragement. She also reveals that her sister is currently working for a Taiwanese TV station and asked if she would like to follow her sister into showbiz, she says she has not thought so far ahead yet and will just enjoy the experience.

As for the rumours that Ah He is an artiste who is anti-social, Halina does not agree and she says: "I feel that Ah He has changed a lot since he became a Buddhist, he is not only happier, he has also opened his mind to a lot of things and is more easy-going now. He has also matured a lot." Halina adds that Ah He is very devoted to his religion and as well as teaching her a lot of Buddhist teachings and even how to read palms.
