News - April 2008

In yesterday's event at Shatin, Kelly was the invited opening guest. Her opening appearance was special in that she would burst out from a giant balloon. However, Kelly had expressed that the balloon had previously burst once but they immediately made another. She was unable to hear any noises from outside and therefore did not know when she would be coming out. As such, she had posed many times for her opening appearance.

During her recent try out for her concert costumes, her image stylist wanted her to wear them and later made cuttings when she is wearing them. When she saw him cutting away fabric , she was concerned that the ones on the top would not be enough to cover her chest area. However, she tried with several big movements and there was no problem and so she was less worried that she will expose herself. She also revealed that she will be turned into a peacock with hanging ornaments around her body. Her stylist had even suggested her to go for navel piercing but she was afraid of the pain.

A recent magazine had reported that Kelly had split with her boyfriend. She immediately denied this and said that there was no problem with their relationship. They have not stayed together and she has never mention that they will not get married. She added that her boyfriend was unhappy to see the report because the pictures were ugly. He looked sleepy and old. Was there some contract terms that forbid her to get married? Kelly said that there was no such terms . She was not affected by the report and she has no thought to get married at this moment. She will concentrate to complete her concert and a movie.

陳慧琳爆破出場個唱最性感

昨日於沙田舉行的「西田之新名字始動禮」上，請來了陳慧琳（ Kelly ）任主禮嘉賓，有別於一般儀式， Kelly 預先進入一個巨型紅氣球內，隨開動儀式舉行，才於氣球內「爆破」出場。雖然出場儀式新穎，不過 Kelly 就表示本來已爆了一次，幸好馬上又吹了另一個新氣球，但在氣球內根本聽不到外面的聲音，所以不知自己是何時出場，所以連出場的姿勢也擺了好幾次。

至於即將舉行演唱會，她就指前日試服裝時，奚仲文先要她穿上舞衣，再在她身上作剪裁，當看到他把衣服「愈剪愈少布」時，也有點擔心，因上身衣服的長度連胸部也未能全遮住，不過試了幾個大動作後，也沒什麼大問題，所以到時不會擔心走光，但這仍會是她最性感的演唱會， Kelly 又透露演唱會將化身為大孔雀，身上會有很多掛飾，奚仲文還建議她釘臍環，不過她怕痛，所以不會釘。

與男友感情穩定

至於近日有指她與男朋友分手，她即表示感情沒有問題，但向來都沒有同居，更沒說過不結婚，不過該報道為何這樣寫，她又指：「但他會好不開心，因為張相影得他好肉酸，眼又未開，又舊，應該要 update 番張靚仔相。（話有合約不准你結婚？）不會，沒有這事情，亦沒影響我心情，但我暫時都沒想過結婚，現在都是完了演唱會同套戲先啦。」她更指與男友感情穩定，相處得很好。

Arch Bridges And Yoga In Concert

Kelly was the invited guest for the opening of her good friend and fashion stylist's boutique. When asked if she would be spokesperson for the fashion label, she replied that she is already one. Most of her wears are from the label and even the skirt and heels that she is wearing comes from them. Kelly likes to help her friends and colleagues to do designing and even loves to help them make over. Claiming that she is a specialist in doing make over, her skills are definitely good and she does not charge a cent. As such, they all like to ask her for help. However, she has been busy recently with her rehearsals for the upcoming concert and has thus rejected several of them.

On her concert rehearsal, Kelly said that they start from morning till night and she is having back aches. Her mind is now full of the dance steps. This is a challenge for her as the dances are more difficult and include arch bridges and yoga. Although she did not sprain herself but she has got bruises because of them. Would her boyfriend be worried? "He is used to this", she said. Would she worry that she might expose herself dancing and wearing sexy costumes? She replied that even if she does accidentally expose herself, it was all because of art. Would she stick tape as a preventive measure? She said that it is useless as the movements are too big and she would sweat alot after dancing. The tapes would have fallen off due to her sweat.

Kelly預告個唱玩拱橋瑜伽

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）昨日為相交 20 多年好友兼著名形象設計師 Celia 所開的 DaDa Styling Club 任剪綵嘉賓。問 Kelly 會否為這間 Styling Club 擔任代言人？她說 ﹕ 「我已經覺得自己是代言人，我經常著 DaDa 的衫，今日身上那條連身裙和高跟鞋都是這裏的出品。」 Kelly 鍾意幫朋友和同事設計造型，更愛幫她們化妝。自言有專業化妝師水準的她說 ﹕ 「我化得又靚又不收分文，所以她們都愛找我幫手，但最近因忙為 6 月舉行的個唱排舞才推了他們。」

談到排舞， Kelly 說 ﹕ 「排到天昏地暗，腰痠背痛，現在滿腦子都是舞步，因為今次的舞姿難度極高，我向高難度挑戰，有拱橋、有瑜伽，雖然沒扭傷，但周身瘀痕。（男友可心痛？）他都慣了。」勁歌熱舞加性感歌衫，可擔心走光？她說 ﹕ 「走光都無辦法，為藝術犧牲囉。（會否黐膠紙打底？）黐都無用，動作太大，每次排舞都汗流浹背，黐了膠紙都會甩。」

Different Sexy Images For Concert

The press conference for Kelly's Love Fighters Concert was held yesterday afternoon at the hotel. Dressed in white top with hot pants, Kelly was ushered in with a group of dancers. At the event, she demonstrated some twists which made the audience high!

Kelly mentioned that there will be different images for her concert including a mermaid, an amusement park, and also Egyptian and Middle Eastern look. When asked if her stage costumes will be a challenge to her sexy limit? She replied that she would wear tube tops and reveal her navel and legs. She has to do alot of dancing and three quarters of them are fast dances. As such, it was inconvenient for her to reveal too much. She added that she does not mind wearing sexy costumes but they cannot be distasteful. Talking about the dances, Kelly felt that they are extremely difficult and her legs are bruised as her choreographer kept pushing her. However, her hard work paid off when she felt that her body got nimble and she looked sexy in the dances. She has some surprises in store for her concert including an equipment imported from Australia. She will also make her appearance on stage as "The Transformers". As for her special guests, Leon Lai has agreed to help out but has yet to confirm on which day he will appear. Other guests have yet to be decided. Kelly laughed that it will be best to invite the four Heavenly Kings, Takuya Kimura, Yutaka Takenouchi, Michael Jackson and even Madonna!

On EEG's artist Isabella Leong's contractual dispute with her management, Kelly was asked if she had encountered any unfair treatment when she was a newcomer. She replied that the terms in her contract had clearly stated that the final decision whether to take on a job is dependent on herself. If there are any unreasonable requests or those against her will, she would not accept them. She does not remember the full details of her contract but she has yet to encounter any that she cannot accept. As such, her working relation with her management has always been good.

Kelly個唱多造型跳舞要Sexy

將於六月十三至十八日舉行「陳慧琳 Love Fighters 演唱會 08 」的陳慧琳（ Kelly ），昨日在酒店舉行盛大的記者會，身穿白色背心短褲的 Kelly 在眾舞蹈員襯托下出場， Kelly 又現場示範扭身舞步，令台下看得熱血沸騰。

Kelly 透露演唱會中將有多個造型，包括美人魚、遊樂場布置、埃及和中東裝扮，問到歌衫會否挑戰自己的性感極限，她說：「都是穿 tube top 、露肚、露腳啦，因為要跳很多舞，四分三的歌都是快歌，露太多跳舞不方便。」 Kelly 強調不介意穿性感歌衫，但就要露得有型，性感得有型。提到演唱會有大量舞步， Kelly 說：「跳舞很難，搞到我雙腳都瘀了，排舞師 Sunny 不斷 push 我，我真的想鍊死他，不過練習多後又覺得自己跳得幾 Sexy ，身體好靈活。」至於演唱會中有何突破， Kelly 表示會從澳洲運來一台儀器做舞台效果，更以「變形金剛」的未來打扮出場，之後又有埃及、中東的造型，更會在台上表演換衫。嘉賓方面黎明已答允相助，但未知是哪一場出現，其他人選則尚未落實。 Kelly 笑道：「最好請四大天王來，木村拓哉、竹野內豐、 Michael Jackson 同麥當娜啦。」

與公司簽約合理愉快

此外，提到梁洛施與英皇的合約糾紛，問到 Kelly 做新人時有否遇到不平等的待遇，她說：「我記得自己的合約中，最終做不做的決定權在自己身上，如果有無理的要求或者違背自己意願就不做，詳細的條款我記不清楚，但不覺得公司有提出自己接受不到的要求，所以一直都合作愉快。」

Singing Women's Characteristics

Concert

Kelly's Love Fighters Concert 2008 will be held from 13 June to 18 June at the HK Coliseum. Tickets will be available for online booking for credit card holders from tomorrow. This concert will be extraordinary as it will be the last concert to be held at the venue before it closes for renovation.

Talks between the concert organiser and production firms in France and Australia have been going on. The costs come up to a 7 figure sum to create a different background and feel for each segment. One of the confirmed background is to create an underwater world. Kelly mentioned that the draft started from late last year. She is now currently rehearsing the dances and as the main item in the concert are the dances, she will require more time to practise. She would hope to be able to concentrate on the preparation in these two months. Also, the art direction for the concert will again be done by Yee Chung Man to bring out the vitality in Kelly. Both Yee and Joel Chu were in charge for the pictures for the concert's posters. The main color will be the most trendy color this year, silver.

打造水世界

是次製作將不惜工本，主辦單位現正跟法國及澳洲的公司協商，計劃耗資七位數，於每一個環節營造不一樣的背景和氣氛，其中已確定會將舞台變成一個海底水世界。 Kelly 道：「去年底已開始為演唱會構思，現在則每天排舞，因為今次演唱會以跳舞為主，所以要花很多時間練習，希望這兩個月能全力集中籌備今次的演唱會。」同時今次仍然由奚仲文擔任創作及美術總監，華麗服裝當然少不了，而為展示 Kelly 最動感的一面，奚仲文更與時尚潮人朱祖兒合作為演唱會海報操刀，顏色並以今年最流行的銀色為主導。

Craze In Korea

Kelly and Leon Lai were in Korea recently to promote their new movie and had received interviews from over 10 mdeia corporations including KBS. After her appearance on TV, Kelly was immediately top in the Korea's web site search engine. Her Korean fans include reporters who had even brought new year cakes for her to sample and discussed with her the story of the movie during the interview.

Kelly had expressed that the bare backed and kissing scenes were the most unforgettable. When she was doing the bare backed scene, she had taken precautions not to expose herself and during the take, no one else was around. However, Kelly's manager Ms Chung was still worried and stayed to keep watch. Leon immediately joked with Ms Chung that she was more worried than Kelly as if she was the one that was not clothed!

As for the kissing scene, the director had first demonstrated to Kelly as it required Kelly to be the initiator. The director pulled Leon over and he first kissed his left cheek before embracing him. It was a hilarious sight for Kelly seeing two big men doing the demonstration!

陳慧琳俘虜韓國Fans

陳慧琳與黎明早前到韓國宣傳《江山美人》，他們接受了數十個報章、雜誌與電子傳媒訪問，包括 KBS 的專訪。 Kelly 在熒幕亮相後，即登上韓國最受歡迎網站的搜尋第一位，其韓國 Fans 包括了記者，因此她出席記者會時，有人帶了韓國年糕送給她，訪問時還肉緊地跟她討論《江山美人》劇情。

清場拍露背戲

Kelly 表示拍攝露背戲及跟黎明雨中接吻最為難忘，「拍攝露背戲時做足安全措施，不會走光，拍攝時也『清場』，但經理人鍾珍仍緊張地監察，怕我被偷影」。黎明跟鍾珍開玩笑指說：「她的表現似自己沒有穿衣服般緊張！」

至於兩人雨中接吻戲，導演程小東拍攝前為她做示範，這場戲要求 Kelly 做主動，程小東即時拉住黎明，他先吻 Leon 的左臉後，才互相擁抱；兩個大男人做示範， Kelly 忍不住笑呢！
