Guest At A Ceremony For Jewellers



Shirley Yeung was the guest at a prize presentation ceremony for a jewellers, where she presented the lucky winner with diamond jewellery worth $2,000,000. In a game on the day, Shirley was asked to choose a doughnut and see whether there was a diamond necklace inside and maybe Shirley had picked up some luck from the prize winner as she chose the right doughnut and received a necklace worth a five figure sum.

Shirley indicates that she has a collection of diamond jewellery at home that she has bought herself as a reward for working so hard. Some items were also gifts from friends, with the most expensive piece being worth over $10,000. Her most valued piece is a diamond ring that her mother bought for her when she graduated, as it has great sentimental value. Asked if her boyfriend has bought her anything, Shirley says her boyfriend has bought her a necklace, but not a ring yet. She says that if her boyfriend buys her a ring as a normal gift, then she will accept, but if there is another meaning, then it is too early as this is a big decision to make. She believes that her boyfriend has no intentions of proposing just yet, so he has not bought her a ring.

Shirley says that to be able to buy her own jewellery is good motivation to work hard. During the event, MC Lai Man Cheuk commented that filming for TVB makes it hard to save, but Shirley says that working for TVB raises your popularity and for the audience to know you is very useful for artistes. She feels that saving is linked to managing your finances properly and not to filming series.

Role In "Duc Way Hung Dung"


Shirley Yeung is currently busy filming for the new TVB series "Duc Way Hung Dung". As this is the first time she will play the villian, she says that after just several days of filming, she has been shouting so much that her voice is hoarse: "My role in this series is very different from my previous roles. I am no longer the good girl and I go to the extreme when I am angry. In one scene, I find out that my dad (played by Lee Kwok Lun) is sent to prison for illegal gambling, I was furious and I had to scold him as loudly as I can. Now I have to speak quietly to rest my voice. This role is a great challenge for me because I think my character in the show is quite nasty and I am going against my conscience to play the role. Luckily I have a lot of seniors working with me, who are teaching me to look at characters from different perspectives. The results aren't bad and I am quite pleased."

Promotional Event For A Skincare Range




Shirley Yeung was taking part in a promotional event for a skincare range yesterday and received a unique skin test from the company that indicated her skin was quite good. Shirley also received over $10,000 of cosmetics. Shirley says she has used this brand before and the effects are very good, especially the massage range.

In order to treat her skin, Shirley likes to go for massage, but she will be very careful to avoid being photographed and when she is in the mainland, she will only go for reflexology. Asked if she and her boyfriend exchanged massages, she immediately laughed awkwardly and said avoidingly: "So embarrassing, how do I answer that? I do massage my seven dogs though, they really enjoy that. (So is your boyfriend not as important as your dogs?) You can't say it like that, with so many paparazzi for me to massage, I don't have time for much more."

Food Product Promotional Event


Self confessed food lover Shirley Yeung took part in a food product promotional event yesterday, but revealed that she doesn't cook very often, so she only knows how to make Black Pepper Veal Cutlets, which she loves to eat, so she asked her mum to teach her how to cook it. She has never made this for her boyfriend yet though as she explains: "We prefer the convenience and speed of going out to eat, because I have to eat as soon as I am hungry, otherwise I will have stomach ache. I have tried his lamb chops. (Was it sweet?) It was very tasty, very nice!"

When she was crashed into earlier, Shirley had been unhappy when the other party refused to pay for the damage, but after some negotiation, she has received a payment from the other driver and she says happily: "My car looked awful for a while, but now it is finally repaired and I am feeling better now." In response to the recent debate over Sammy Leung and Siu Yee's radio show holding a poll for "The Female Artiste I Would Most Like to Touch Up", Shirley says that she likes to listen to the radio and she feels that DJ's have been bringing up fresh topics and they probably never imagined the response they would receive to this subject. She believes they didn't mean it maliciously, but it was an oversight and they should be given a chance to make up for it and not be reprimanded too heavily. She is also glad that her name isn't on the list!

Filming Beach Scene In "Duc Way Hung Dung"


Yesterday, Steven Ma, Ron Ng, Shirley Yeung and Kate Tsui were at Tuen Mun filming a swimming scene on the beach for the new serie "Duc Way Hung Dung". While they were there, unexpectedly, the crew received a surprise visit from Michelle Yip, who was also filming nearby. Originally wearing a white t-shirt to model, Michelle noticed there were reporters nearby the cast of "Duc Way Hung Dung", she immediately changed into a strapped purple dress and walked over with no hesitation to give everyone a friendly greeting, but unfortunately no one gave her any response, since nobody knew her that well. To get onto the magazines or newspaper, Michelle came and "stepped on field", but because she was given a rather cold reaction, she became annoyed and left.

Going Into Water & Taking Off Bath Robes
As for Kate, Shirley, Steven and Ron's scene with wearing bath robes and going for a swim, Steven says: "This scene is about all of us going into the water, but who would've known I was going to pull a muscle, so Bernice Liu anxiously helps me massage." (Then it's lucky to be in love?) "The plot narrates how Bernice, Kenneth Ma and I are in a love triangle, whereas Kate, Shirley and Ron are in another love triangle."

In addition, because the cast members had to walk while taking off their robes, Kate, Shirley and Steven were rather embarrassed about this, but Ron on the other hand bravely took off his robe to show off his muscles.
