陳冠希廣告成都重生
【明報專訊】一直有傳娛樂圈裸照風波的源頭——「奇拿」，昨日會藉裸照案被告史可雋進行預審而「復活」，再有新裸照上載，不過香港網站未見「奇拿」影蹤，但內地網站卻指有67張艷照流出，並且疑似是陳文媛，不過卻未知是真是假。「奇拿」是否復活未知，但男主角陳冠希卻在成都「復活」，因為去年事件未發生前，他所拍的一個太陽眼鏡廣告，在風頭火勢前一直未有推出，但如事件稍為平息，便讓陳冠希「重生」，試一試市場反應。同時陳文媛（Bobo）現任男友金紫耀前晚亦現身一個活動，被數十記者在街頭追逐，追問是否會娶Bobo時？他保持笑容說，稍後會交代事件。
陳文媛（Bobo）男友金紫耀自從女友捲入藝人裸照風波後，一直未有現身。外間有傳二人婚禮因而擱置，但有情有義的他，對女友依然愛護有加。前晚他終於露面，以贊助商身分到蘭桂坊出席ABSOLUT Couture時裝騷及派對，吸引數十名記者聞風而至。不過他在活動開始前經已入場，未有跟記者碰面，後來公關回應指他不希望接受訪問，也不願現身拍照。
出席派對被記者包圍
金紫耀在派對逗留約兩小時，待街頭時裝騷完結後，他本欲從餐廳側門離開現場，但發現有大批記者在側門守候，立即退回會場內。他等待了約10分鐘，在10時左右，當司機駕車到場時，他在兩名保安人員護送下走出重重記者包圍上車。一身黑色西裝的他笑笑口，看來心情不俗，上車後他突然拉下車窗，主動叫正迫覑車子影相的記者小心，又叫保安不要推倒記者。問他在事件後會否迎娶Bobo？他只微笑說﹕「我遲鱓會出來交代。」說罷便關上車窗。
其間有電視台攝影機的機燈竟從車窗跌入車內，幸好金紫耀即拾起交還記者。最後其車子在警察開路下離去，現場約有數十人圍觀，不少外籍途人見追訪場面墟軃，以為有大明星到場而駐足觀看或拍照，又問金紫耀是誰人。
圍觀墟軃 警察開路
至於陳冠希的「重生」廣告，出現於成都的公共交通汽車上，據內地報章報道，海報中的陳冠希戴上太陽眼鏡酷勁十足，依然是型男一名。記者昨日向其經理人公司寰亞了解，也證實在事件發生前，陳冠希是與內地一家眼鏡公司拍了一個廣告。該品牌本要求他於2月到內地宣傳，但情一發不可收拾而只有取消行程，現時情稍為放緩，故才讓陳冠希「重生」。

Josie Ho Supports Changes to JSG’s System
TVB’s “Jade Solid Gold Awards” is one of the most contested awards for local singers. For many years, there are several accusations that the awards were not shared properly. There were labels who have blasted TVB for that. Last night, TVB’s Arts and Music Division Senior Manager Chan Ka-Yeung (陳家揚) publicly announced a new system. He plans to implement the new system at the 《2008勁歌金曲優秀選第一回》 on next month. The list of awarded songs would increase to 14 for each round. It means there would be 42 songs for the three rounds held each year. It is apparent that TVB doesn’t want to lose favour with the labels by creating a win-win situation for everyone.
Last night, Josie Ho was at a taping for JSG. She responded to the new system to increase the song allotment. Josie said: “It is a big decision to increase by two songs.” The reporter asked if she was confident that she can make it on the list. Josie said: “I never thought I would have a part. If more awards would increase “fing頭”, then “fing” until the head comes off.”
Chan Ka-Yeung hopes that other people would not read too much into the move. He pointed out that in 2005, there were 40 songs. It was not a breakdown in talks. He said: “You really can’t give an equal share because there are more and more singers. It is an encouragement to creativity and to give more opportunities.” The reporter asked if the record label demanded an increase. Ka-Yeung responded: “It is our decision. The company has meetings every year to discuss about issues.”
