Moon Lee in new film
Image
(1/3/2008) The Moon Lee Choi Fung starred Buddhist film CHOR LIM SUN
SING (ASSIST THINKING NEW STAR) two nights ago held its premiere. Other
cast members included Cheung Kwok Keung and Shao Yam Yam. Her "Man in
the Closet" co-star Zhong Tianyi did not appear. Lee Choi Fung said that
the film company did not make arrangement and she did not contact him.
Guests like Tse Shuet Sum, Lee Lik Chi and Yuen Wah came in support.
Lee Choi Fung explained that the director suggested the addition
of an affair in a Buddhist movie. Because her former husband Law Kai Yan
has made up such an exciting story the director felt that he might as well
followed. At the time she did not know whether her godson Zhong Tianyi
minded. Later she learned that he was somewhat afraid but after the
director's persuasion he finally agreed to perform and played the scene
with an exaggeration. Was she worried that others would make fun of her
for adapting the rumor on the big screen? She was not worried because
during the shoot it already added fun.

The shirts, targeted at the upper-end shopper, average $218.


What better way to celebrate ethnic pride than to sell T-shirts for $200? :D
