News - December 2007

Kelly had earlier announced that she will not be attending any of the music awards presentations this year and had encouraged Miriam Yeung who is the hot favorite for TVB's Asia Pacific Region Female Singer to be brave and accept the award. Coincidentally, both of them were present at the Hong Kong Movie Development Board Christmas Party held on Monday evening. Their dressing were very matched as Kelly's red skirt looked like a Christmas flower and Miriam looked like a human Christmas tree.

As to many female singers had claimed that they were not capable to receive the TVB Asia Pacific Region Female Singer Award, Kelly laughed that all they needed was some courage. She has however not decided whether she will attend next year's music awards presentations as well. There were again rumors that Kelly was forced to get married and she again denied this and said that no one believed her. She added that she will not choose to get married so as to escape from work. Her work for next year includes promotion for her new movie, preparation for her concert and also be the torch bearer for the Olympics. Although she has no current plans for marriage, she has already reached an agreement with her boyfriend. Marriage will just come when the time is right.

陳慧琳叫千嬅放膽攞獎謙稱未夠班做亞太女歌手

陳慧琳事先張揚不出席年尾一系列的音樂頒獎禮，並叫被視為「勁歌亞太女歌手獎」接棒人的楊千嬅提起勇氣攞獎。前晚電影發展局舉行的迎奧運聖誕酒會，「交棒人」、「接棒人」同場，兩女打扮極為相襯， Kelly 的紅裙似足聖誕花，而千嬅則似一棵人肉聖誕樹。

Kelly遲早出嫁

對於一眾女歌手，例如楊千嬅等也謙稱未夠班接力領「勁歌亞太女歌手獎」， Kelly 笑說：「有勇氣便攞到獎！」她未決定明年是否參與音樂頒獎禮。而有傳 Kelly 被男友逼婚，她說：「又傳？我多次否認了也沒有人相信。但我不會因工作辛苦而結婚『避難』，明年工作很忙，電影《江山美人》上映之餘，又要籌備演唱會，以及擔任奧運火炬手。」 Kelly 坦言雖然未有結婚計劃，但跟男友有共識，她遲早會嫁。

Good Song To Awards

Kelly, Eric Suen, Andy Hui. Hins Cheung, Ivana Wong, Jade Kwan and Priscilla Chan were performing guests for the music show "Thomas Chow + Friends held on Thursday night. Kelly said that Thomas is her lucky star because after his lyrics for her first song "Everything Is Beautiful Because Of You", she has been consecutively winning awards. In her next Cantonese album scheduled for release early next year, Thomas Chow will be penning lyrics for 2 of the songs. Thomas had earlier expressed on stage that he was thankful to all performing singers in the show and will be penning a song each for them. Kelly immediately said that he will therefore owe him 3 songs in total.

Kelly expressed that she will not be vying for any music awards this year as she has not released any albums. TVB's Asia Pacific Female Singer has always been won by Kelly for the last few years and there were talks that Miriam Yeung will get this award because Kelly will not be attending the awards presentation. Kelly said that Miriam is qualified to receive the award. As to her movie, she admitted that she wish to get awards for movies after only winning once for the movie theme song award. Would she no longer care about music awards? She replied that it was incorrect to say this. Given a choice, she would choose to have a good song rather than an award. She feels that good songs are hard to come by especially those that can lasts for 10 years.

Kelly寧要好歌唔要獎

前晚新城為著名填詞人周禮茂在九展舉行《禮茂禮茂 + 好友音樂會》，演出歌手有陳慧琳（ Kelly ）、孫耀威、安仔、張敬軒、王菀之、關心妍及陳慧嫻等。 Kelly 指周禮茂是她的幸運星，因對方為她填了一首《一切很美只因有你》後，她開始得獎。在明年初推出的新廣東大碟，周禮茂也會替她填兩首歌詞。周禮茂在台上表示多謝到場表演的歌手，會替每個歌手填一首詞， Kelly 即指周禮茂欠她 3 首歌詞。

Kelly 指今年沒出唱片，所以不會領獎。近年無綫的「亞太女歌手獎」都是陳慧琳奪得，今年她不攞獎，有指楊千嬅將會獲頒「亞太女歌手獎」？ Kelly 指千嬅也有資格拿此獎。談到電影方面， Kelly 坦言只憑《風花雪》攞過電影歌曲獎，她當然希望有機會獲電影獎項。至於音樂上的獎項是否已經攞夠不再希罕？ Kelly 說 ﹕ 「不能這樣說，只是獎項與好歌，我覺得好歌難求，寧可有一首好歌，可以 10 年都啱聽。」

Performance On Golden Horse Awards Presentation

Kelly will be the performing guest in this year's Golden Horse movie awards presentation. She is set to perform a medley of movie theme songs from the 50s and 60s with a broadway dance. Kelly admitted that she hoped to be able to get nominated for next year's Golden Horse awards for her upcoming movie "The Empress And The Warriors". The movie will only be screened in March next year but she had earlier seen the uncompleted version of the movie and felt that it was great. She looked extremely skilled in the fighting scenes and her acting skills had also improved. Whenever she looks back at the previous movies that she had done, she had always wondered why she had acted so badly. However, she did not have such comments this time.

Kelly will be absent for all the 4 station's awards presentations this year. She will release her album next year and also hold her concert in HK which is believed to be the last performance before the coliseum closes for renovation. As to why she no longer accepts TVB's Asia Pacific Region Female Singer Award, Kelly stressed that it did not affect both parties relationship. Who does she think that will get the award? She answered that it will be dependent on the audience's choice.

Kelly冀提名金馬獎自詡演技進步

陳慧琳擔任今屆台灣金馬獎表演嘉賓，演出一幕《風華絕代》，以 50 、 60 年代電影歌曲串連成百老匯式歌舞。 Kelly 坦言希望明年能憑電影《江山美人》提名金馬獎，「《江》片明年 3 月才上映，我早前已看過未完成後期的粗略版本，很勁！拍得我好似好打得，演技又進步。每次看回舊作品，我都會自問『為何會拍成這樣』，今次就沒有了」。

Kelly 今年會缺席四台頒獎禮，「明年推出唱片及紅館演唱會宣傳才多留時間在香港」。據悉， Kelly 的個唱為紅館封館前最後一個。提及不再接受無綫的亞太女歌手獎， Kelly 強調並無影響雙方的關係，對於此獎「繼任」人選，她表示要交由觀眾決定。
