If I have a say, my pick would be having Maggie Cheung and Wayne Lai in Msia for "Forensic Heroes 3" (法證先鋒 3) promotional blitz. Yeah, I may be a tad disappointed but having Kate and Ron in our shores ain't such a bad idea either. Afterall, both rank high in my fave lists. Kate is fast becoming the most frequent visitor to Msia (in particular, Penang) coz barely 3 weeks ago, Kate and Laughing made an appearance in Pavillion and Autocity for the forthcoming "Be Charmed" concert. TVB played its cards right by selecting the highly anticipated "Forensic Heroes 3" as the anniversary drama. Based on past ratings, forensic theme can never go wrong. I am just so thankful that the lead actress role went to Maggie instead of Ah Sheh. To put it bluntly, Charmaine ain't convincing at all in her police officer role. Kevin and Charmaine are a freaking boring on-screen couple ! While still on this topic, here's my two cents. Bosco and Kate may have sizzled our idiot box with their smooching and awesome chemistry but seeing Ron and Kate together just makes me wanna root for them to become the next real-life celebrity lovebirds. From his gestures throughout the event, Ron is darn attentive towards Kate. I so wish Miss Zhang does a quick disappearing act from Ron's radar. I have never liked silicone and plastic surgery obsessed barbie-look-alike and never will.
Some netizens have not been too kind to Kate either. I'd agree that her performance as "Paris" may not be award worthy but if you'd asked me, given the years that Kate has been in HK e-circle, her improvement is pretty good. TVB should stop stereotyping Kate to merely vixen/sexy role. Hopefully, Kate flexes her acting skills in "Forensic" and make non-fans sees her in a positive light.
Again, I hope Ron appears less "beefy" in the new drama. I just don't get it. In the flesh, Ron seems to have the perfect body frame. Somehow, he always gives off the "rugby player" persona on tv....probably due to his broad shoulder(?). Anyway, no matter what, he's still hella good looking. The thing with Ron is he can be hunky and yet, exudes a boyish charm.
Kate looks ravishing in a sexy and tight fitting lime green short dress. Ron's D&G shirt is nice but he should seriously give away his torned khaki pants to the next hobo. Torned jeans is cool but on this type of fabric is a big no no ! By now, Ron is very at ease belting out "紅蝴蝶". Anyone who has been to his functions as often as I did would know that "Red Butterfly" is a compulsory song in his repertoire. Don't get me wrong ! I like that song a lot, so I don't mind hearing it live for the umpteenth time. Can't say the same for Kate, though. Her singing definitely needs more polishing. She is literally struggling with the Tang Chi Wai composed's "半圓" from "Wax and Wane (團圓)" . Her voice still falters when hitting the high notes. More vocal lessons please before launching the next album. Dancing wise, this lady knows her stuff !
It the first time both artistes collaborated with Maggie. Second team-up for Ron and Wayne (after "Rosy Business"). I certainly look forward to Forensic Heroes 3's premiere on 10 Oct ! Before the function draws to a close, the stars reminded fans that they will be at Genting Highland 3 weeks from now for a TVB concert, along with Laughing, Fala and Myolie. I hope to be charmed then in "Be Charmed" concert !
