News - January 2004

As the Philatelic Ambassador for Hong Kong Post, Kelly was present at the Stamp Exhibition held yesterday and she had signed autographs for everyone who had bought a copy of her stamp collection. The stamp collection, comprising of a first day cover and a CD single, is priced at $50. Kelly had ordered 200 sets for herself and had even asked if there was a discount if she made bulk orders. She was told that there were be a discount and she has decided to buy more to give to her family members and friends.

50 students from China had came to Hong Kong for tour and when they knew that Kelly was having an autograph session that day, they were eager to queue up and participate in the event. They had later performed their traditional dance for Kelly.

Kelly had expressed that she had stayed at home during the Lunar New Year period and did not go house visiting. As such, she had only received red packets from her parents and that of her boyfriend's. However, the total amount collected was a considerable 5 sum figure.

As to renowned singer Wai Lei criticising a popular female singer not being able to sing live, Kelly had felt that some singers may not have any natural talent in singing and need to work harder. However, what is most important is to improve yourself and be recognised by others.

On the reports of the dispute between Anita Mui and her former ad client, she had seen them and she felt that it was strange as to why there could possibly be any recording evidence. She hoped that the matter will be over soon because it is not good to pursue the matter any further after Anita's death.

Kelly新春收利市3封勝在夠厚

身為「集郵大使」的陳慧琳，昨日出席「香港 2004 郵票博覽會」活動，為購買了她的《唱郵集》之擁躉簽名，因為該《唱郵集》附有精美 Kelly 與 Q 版 Kelly 肖像「我的郵票」及一首大會主題曲《郵票》，以 50 元售賣， Kelly 自己都訂了 200 套留念，更詢問大會可有特價，得到答覆若大量訂購就有特價，所以她準備買來送給家人及朋友留念。

自購《唱郵集》送禮

Kelly 表示今年春節自己留在香港過年，卻沒有出外拜年，所以只收到男朋友父母及自己父親的利市，不過數目雖少但「內涵」夠厚，反而她自己就向員工派了不少利市，並預了 5 位數字。

昨天有 50 位來自新疆的小學生來港旅行，得知陳慧琳有集郵簽名會便來排隊參與，更跳民族舞給 Kelly 欣賞。

對於有前輩歌手威利批評時下有走紅女歌手唱歌夾口型，連唱現場都好難聽。問 Kelly 意見，她認為有些歌手天生並非如威利等前輩是唱家班，所以真的要繼續努力。她亦知道自己與其他歌手都好努力，最緊要自己不斷求進步，就會被欣賞。

指錄音光碟事件詭異

她亦有看過有關梅艷芳與廣告商的糾紛報道，對這件事她感到好奇怪，為何會有錄音光碟曝光，感覺這件事好詭異，希望是非快點完結，始終阿梅已病逝，在這個時候再追討並不好，而且對方是知阿梅患癌症的。

Bridal Accessories For Herself

Kelly had recently filmed the music video for her song "Bridal Accessories" and had nearly disfigured her face. Recalling the incident, Kelly was still feeling frightened.

During that day, Kelly was supposed to play a scene that she was waiting for her fiance to return. The wait was so long that even the flowers withered. As they wanted the withered flowers to look natural, the props man had specially used acid to sprinkle on them. Kelly was not informed on the use of the acid and during the filming, she had constantly caressed the pot of flowers. She had later used her hands to touch her face. She soon felt some irritation on her right cheek and started scratching. Her assistant shouted to her upon seeing a red patch on her cheek. Initially, Kelly had thought that her skin was sensitive to the cold weather conditions. But after the props man had told the truth to her, she immediately dashed to the washroom to rinse her face with water. Luckily, the red patch had soon disappeared.

Kelly expressed that as the scene needed her to stare at the pot of flowers while waiting for her fiance. She had to feel anxious and so had started touching the things around her.

Also in the music video, she had to buy some bridal accessories and had even sewn her own wedding gown but her wait was to no avail. Kelly said that it gave her a soured feeling but when she really get married, she will also buy some bridal accessories for herself so that she can pass them on to her future generations!

陳慧琳拍MV險被鏹水毀容

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）日前拍攝新歌《嫁妝》 MV 險被鏹水毀容，事後她想起仍猶有餘悸 ﹗

事緣當日拍攝一個 Kelly 等未婚夫回來，但等到花也謝的鏡頭，道具師傅為了製造逼真的凋謝效果，特別用鏹水把那盆花淋到很乾枯感覺。

右邊臉紅了一塊

不過拍攝時未有通知 Kelly ，所以 Kelly 不斷用手去摸那盆花之餘，更將手摸自己塊臉。摸着摸着她突然覺得右邊臉有點癢，便開始用手去𢱑，誰知助手突然大叫指她右邊臉紅了一塊 ﹔ 初時還以為天氣太冷令皮膚敏感，直至那位道具師傅說出真相，她才恍然大悟，即時衝入廁所不停用水洗臉。幸好很快沒事，但想起都有點驚 ﹗

Kelly 指因那場戲講她對着盆花等待未婚夫回來娶她，心情緊張便自然周圍摸，沒料到花上有鏹水。

MV 中她又買了一些嫁妝準備陪嫁，還親手縫製婚紗，但最終白等一場，她覺得那種感覺很難受。不過她將來結婚都會買嫁妝給自己，然後傳給女兒，一代傳一代有意思。

Deviating Her Path To Avoid The Crowd

Kelly was recently in Changsha for a promotion as the spokesperson for Samsung. As the meet consumers event was held at the atrium of the biggest shopping mall in the area, Kelly had to deviate her path to enter the mall.

Her appearance attracted over a thousand people and the nearby overhead bridges and roads were all flocked with her fans. Kelly was initially supposed to get down from her car at the road opposite the shopping mall and walk straight to the stage. However, the roads were fully congested and she had to be arranged to enter from the back door of the mall, walking past the shops before going on stage. The fans were also caught surprised by her unexpected appearance from the back.

Kelly had later expressed that she had wished to shop around in the mall. When she went past the shops, she saw a pair of cute furry slippers which she wanted very much. She later dropped the idea of buying for fear that there will be a confusion at the shop.

陳慧琳兜路避人潮　搞亂長沙

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）早前以 Samsung 大中華地區代言人身份，到湖南長沙舉行消費者見面會，由於活動在當地最大型的購物商場外的露天廣場舉行， Kelly 要施展調虎離山計才可進入場地。

Kelly 的出現，吸引了過千市民圍觀，連附近的行人天橋及馬路邊都擠滿歌迷。 Kelly 本來在廣場側邊的馬路旁落車，然後直接走到台上，路程只不過大約二十米，但由於通道被擠得水洩不通，最後大會惟有安排 Kelly 迂迴地由商場後門進入，然後經商場的商舖再走上台，歌迷們也估不到她竟然會在商場出現。

Kelly 表示：「其實我都好想 o係商場逛逛，經過時見到對毛毛公仔拖鞋好得意，好想買，但怕引起混亂，最後只好望望算了。」

Clumsy Preparing New Year Dishes

Although Kelly needed to film a new movie during the Lunar New Year period, she had devoted time on the first day of the new year to pay new year respects to her parents and elders. Kelly was definitely not spared the question by her elders on when will be her turn to give red packets. She mentioned that she currently has the practice to give red packets to her staff. As to when she will get married, she has still not come to a decision and will wait for a few years more. Kelly did not mind having to work in the festive season because it will be even more happy with more people celebrating together.

As Kelly is a Shanghainese, her family will prepare traditional food stuff for the new year. Kelly's favorite dish is the "Eight Treasure Rice" and she has learnt to cook that for several times but was unsuccessful. Because of her clumsiness, she was always barred from the kitchen during the new year when she wanted to help to prepare the dish. Instead, she chose to make her specialty desserts for the elders. Kelly had also made a joke in that she always had to use both her hands when peeling the melon seeds. She was amazed when she saw her relatives doing that with only one hand and was laughed at for being lousy.

Kelly 煮上海賀年菜雞手鴨腳

陳慧琳（Kelly）過年要為新戲開工，但年初一仍抽空向父母及長輩拜年， Kelly 不免被長輩問幾時派利是，Kelly 說：「我依家都有派，派畀呢年同我一齊努力簕工作人員呀！幾時真係派利是，我未諗呀！過多幾年先啦！」雖然農曆年要開工，但 Kelly 覺得冇所謂，因為一大班人慶祝才開心，實行寓工作於娛樂。

由於 Kelly 是上海人，家中例必炮製不少上海過年食品，在多款菜式中， Kelly 最喜歡的是八寶飯，她亦學煮很多次，但依然未見成功，故每年都被禁入廚房，因為她十分雞手鴨腳兼「阻定」，所以 Kelly 選擇在西方節日下廚，炮製甜品孝敬長輩。這個農曆年間， Kelly 又鬧出笑話，一向用雙手剝瓜子的 Kelly ，見到親戚可輕易用單手剝，覺得很神奇，更被取笑「渣」。

Wishes For The New Year

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Kelly would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year and to be blessed with good health. In review of the past year, there were too many unhappy incidents, for example, she was down with a serious flu during the middle of the year and her work was affected by the temporary loss of her voice. Because of this, Kelly hopes that everyone will be healthy in the new year and to be happy everyday.

During this occasion, Kelly initially had several days of holidays to spend with her family. However, she has a new movie to start on and has to cancel the house visiting plans. Kelly had expressed that she had longed to enjoy the warm festive spirit to go house visiting with her family. Besides that, it will be to have a good rest at home.

From the time Kelly had went into show biz, she has never stepped into the flower market during the new year. In the beginning, Kelly did not mind on the loss of opportunity to go there but during these few years, she very much wanted to go there after hearing from her friends that there are many things to buy. However, her manager had warned her that her visit to the already crowded flower market might cause a bigger stir.

陳慧琳行花市易入難出

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）藉今日大年初一，向全港讀者恭祝「猴年恭喜發財、新年快樂、身體健康」。 Kelly 回顧過往一年，實在太多不開心的事情發生，如去年年中，她便患了一次重感冒病倒，以致失聲令工作大受影響。正因如此， Kelly 最希望新一年大家擁有健康體魄，開心度過每一天。

在這農曆新年， Kelly 本來有幾天假期與家人到長輩家中拜年利是，可惜因接了一部新片，假期就迫不得已告吹。 Kelly 表示：「其實我真係好想放假同家人一齊去拜年，種新年氣氛感覺好溫馨，其次就係趁呢個機會屋企餐飽，因為平時都冇乜時間真正好好休息過。」

Kelly 自入行至今已有多年未行過花市。她說：「初頭覺得冇乜所謂，但近幾年就好恨去，聽朋友講今年花市有好多得意賣，好想買新玩意玩下，但經理人怕我去到易入難出，只會搞到花市亂上加亂。」

$20 000 From Charity Auction

After recording TVB Jade Solid Gold show the previous night, Kelly was busy again for yesterday's World Carnival and she had a good time playing the swing with the children. Besides having fun, Kelly had not forget to raise funds for her Children Education Fund during the auction. The items up for auction include her gowns, necklace with the K word designed by herself. All these managed to raise a total of $20 388. To this, Kelly is extremely satisfied with the amount being that the economy is still not too good. The most comical incident that made Kelly laugh was that the host, Lam Hiu Fong, said that whoever pays more will get a kiss from Kelly's manager, Miss Chung.

The earlier released comic Kelly International School has so far sold over a thousand and ranked no.1 for English educational books. Kelly is much more happy on the good sales of the book rather than having number 1 ranking for her album sales.

As the judge for Miss Chinese International Pageant, Kelly felt that the qualities of this year's finalists are good. Does she mean that they have good body figures? Kelly laughed that only men will pay attention to these while women will take note of the hips. Kelly has no intention to participate in such beauty pageants because she has no confidence in her body figure. She is even often made fun by Alan Tam that her hips could hold two tables of mahjong.

陳慧琳義賣舊飾物籌2萬

陳慧琳前晚錄影《勁歌金曲》後，昨午又到環球嘉年華與小朋友玩空中鞦韆，及為「陳慧琳助學基金會」舉行拍賣及賣福袋籌款。拍賣物品包括她穿過的衫、 K 字型晶石頸鏈、首飾等，合共籌得 2 萬 388 元。陳慧琳對此成績感到滿意，現今市道差，成績比預期中好。最令陳慧琳開心，是司儀林曉峰搞笑，說誰投得多錢便可以吻陳慧琳 — 經理人鍾珍。

開心漫畫英文書熱賣

她早前推出的漫畫英文書，成為文字語文學習類別銷量榜第一位，售出數千本，比自己唱片銷量第一位更開心。

陳慧琳擔任華裔小姐評判，她覺得今年的佳麗質素好。問到是否身材好 ﹖ 她笑說是男人才會留意身材，女人是留意下圍。她本身從沒想過選美，因對自己身材沒有信心，常被阿倫笑她下圍可以擺兩圍。

Guest For The 12 Girls Band Concert

The 12 Girls Band held their first HK concert on Thursday night with Kelly appearing as the guest for the show. The audience was extremely spontaneous and while Kelly was singing two of her fast songs, she made huge movements and the four straps for her top kept sliding down. The crowd was worried for her but it was fortunate that her top did not came down.

Kelly was extremely satisfied with her performance because there was ample time for rehearsal for the show. She felt that it was fun to work with a group of people. Previously, she had wondered if the audience might prefer her singing slow songs. However, the girls selected two of Kelly's fast songs to perform and they were well-liked by the audience. As such, she found out that it was not necessary that she must sing slow songs.

She laughed at the straps for her top were disobedient and she could not stop them from sliding down. She also did not expect the straps to steal the limelight instead. The chance to work with the 12 Girls Band was due to being in the same record label and Kelly has hoped that they will have the chance to cooperate again in their music the next time.

Besides this, Kelly had mentioned that she has applied for a time slot at the HK Coliseum in December to hold her concert. She wished to invite the 12 Girls Band for her guests. As to how many shows for her concert will there be, she replied that it will depend on the demand.

The 12 Girls Band had gave their comments on Kelly's performance in that she is lively and they like her songs very much.

陳慧琳快歌勁舞跌吊帶

內地演奏組合女子十二樂坊前晚在紅館舉行首場音樂會，由陳慧琳（ Kelly ）擔任特別嘉賓，觀眾反應不俗。 Kelly 穿上一條背心裙亮相時，由於她連唱兩首快歌，表演動作頗大，忘形間膊上 4 條吊帶均跌下，觀眾都替她心驚，幸好未有走光。

唱現場效果好

Kelly 這次因為有充足時間綵排，所以唱現場效果很好。她表示與女樂 12 人一起合作感覺很熱鬧。之前她有想過觀眾會否較喜歡聽慢歌，但想不到女樂選了自己兩首快歌演奏，現場觀眾反應非常好，她才發現不一定要唱慢歌。

說到她的背心 4 條帶齊跌，她笑言 ﹕ 「它們不聽話，我都沒有辦法，實在是意料不到被 4 條帶搶了鏡。」 Kelly 與女子十二樂坊屬同系唱片公司，她希望將來可以在音樂方面合作。

計劃 12 月開個唱

Kelly 已入紙向紅館申請今年 12 月的檔期開演唱會，她希望到時邀請女樂任嘉賓演出。至於開幾多場個唱， Kelly 稱要視乎到時的市道而定。

女子十二樂坊的成員表示很開心能在紅館完成音樂會，因為見到有很多捧場的觀眾是小朋友及長者，證明她們的樂迷什麼年紀都有。問到她們對陳慧琳演出的評價 ﹖ 她們表示 Kelly 很生動，也很喜歡其歌曲。她們之前亦未想過自己的唱片會在日本賣過滿堂紅，並廣為日人認識。

Vulgarity Over Sexiness

Kelly was present yesterday at the press conference held by HK Post as the role of philatelic ambassador. This time, HK Post will release a stamp collection and CD single priced at $55 for Kelly. Being the philatelic ambassador consecutively for two years, Kelly felt extremely happy and she had expressed that she will buy five sets of the stamps for her own collection. Would her boyfriend collect one too? She laughed that he would not do so and she would instead be frightened if he collects her stuff.

After the lunar new year, Kelly will engage in filming her new movie. She will play the role of a policewoman and there are several scenes in the movie that needed her to fire a revolver. She has not take up acting classes because there is no script for the movie yet. There will be some vulgar slangs in the movie but Kelly said that they are definitely not foul words. Will she accept talking vulgarity? Kelly has yet to do so as most of her roles are more refined. If she had to choose between a character that speaks vulgarity or one that has a sexy appearance, she immediately chose the former. Wouldn't that affect her image? Kelly felt that appearing too sexy will affect her image much more.

Kelly寧爆粗拒性感

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）昨午以「集郵大使」身分出席郵政局展覽會的記者會。是次郵政局替 Kelly 推出「郵品」，內附一張收錄 Kelly 《郵票》主題曲的 CD ，價錢 55 元。 Kelly 對於蟬聯第 2 屆「集郵大使」感到開心，她表示會購買 5 套來作收藏。問她男友會否也儲一套 ﹖ 她笑說不會，如果男友儲她的東西會有點驚。

農曆新年後 Kelly 將會開拍電影，飾演一名警察，戲中會有些動作要揸槍。問她今次會否請老師教她演戲 ﹖ Kelly 說暫時未有劇本。戲中會有少許粗俗對白，但不是粗口。是否接受講粗口 ﹖ 她說未試過，通常角色較斯文。若要她選演粗口角色或性感角色，她會選那一樣 ﹖ 她二話不說便選粗口角色。不怕破壞形象 ﹖ 她指性感更影響形象。

Still In Good Relation With RTHK

Kelly had attended the 5th HK Outstanding Teenagers election press conference yesterday held jointly with RTHK. She was also selected as the star representative for the election.

Kelly had poor results during the earlier RTHK Awards Presentation and it made people think that their relations had worsened. It was the first time this year that she had attended an event organised by RTHK. Kelly had expressed that she was also present at the RTHK New Year's countdown but did not stay for the interview because she did not want rumours on their poor relation to be carried on to the new year. The HK Outstanding Teenagers election is a positive event and she would definitely support it. She also stressed that her relation with the radio station is still good. She will do more work to avoid less rumours but she knew that it was impossible to avoid all rumours.

In the press conference for the Miss Chinese International Beauty Pageant held on the same day, Kelly had the chance to meet and talk to some of the finalists. HK representative, Mandy Cho, left her the deepest impression. Kelly had also felt that No.12 Linda Chung and No.8 Chui Ching Kit are beautiful and sweet.

On 15th January, Kelly will be the guest for the 12 Girls Band concert. During the rehearsal, the girls were very friendly and had taught how to play musical instruments. This time, Kelly had spent much time on the rehearsal. She was asked if she had feared that she will repeat her poor performance on TVB JSG Awards Presentation? Kelly had expressed that she could not attend the same rehearsal with Andy Lau during the previous event and was not able to sing in the same key. She has hoped that this rehearsal will make her prepared prior to the actual show. She will sing 2 fast songs then.

Was Kelly able to put aside her sad feelings after Anita's funeral? Kelly replied that she still missed Anita and she felt extremely sad especially after hearing cries from her fans to Anita to take care when her body was cremated. She was again later touched by the words from Eddie Lau and had cried again. However, Kelly knew she had to carry on with her work so as not to affect others.

Kelly出席港台活動行動證明無不和

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）昨以「傑少選舉之星」身分，出席港台合辦「第五屆香港傑出少年選舉」的記者會。

Kelly 於早前港台頒獎禮中食白果，之後雙方被傳關係惡化，而她昨日是 2004 年度首次參與港台活動，令人感覺關係轉好。 Kelly 表示 ﹕ 「上個月 31 號都有出席十優，不過無做訪問，我不想把頒獎禮的是非帶到今年，而今次活動很正面，會多支持參與，况且根本無不和 ﹗ 」新一年有新開始 ﹖ 「是，少些是非多做事。」無是非更好 ﹖ 「無可能的，無是非好不正常，無『非』都有『是』更好。」

陳慧琳睇好曹敏莉

無線昨日安排 21 位國際華裔小姐會晤大會評判，眾華姐分別自備便服及泳衣，爭取評判團印象分數。評判霍震霆、陳慧琳及歐陽震華等，大讚華姐質素很高，當中霍震霆指各人很有代表性，希望藉今次選舉，改善國際審美眼光，不再重視金髮美女。

陳慧琳坦言選美首先要靚及合眼緣，因為是代表華人，也要大方得體 ﹔ 由於剛才傾談只見了一半華姐，只對香港代表曹敏莉印象最深，其次 12 號鍾嘉玲也很甜美， 8 號徐靜潔亦不錯。

陳慧琳為女樂做足綵排

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）為內地組合女子十二樂坊在港舉行的音樂會擔任特別嘉賓，前晚她到紅館綵排，成員們非常熱情地教 Kelly 玩樂器。

怕再次失準

Kelly 今次抽足時間綵排，問她是否不希望如上次與華仔在勁歌頒獎禮上，未有綵排引至合唱失準此情况再度出現 ﹖ 她稱因為上次與華仔的排練時間未能配合，現場唱的 Key 不同了。今次抽時間綵排，希望演出前有準備。 Kelly 將會現場唱兩首快歌。

問 Kelly 是否已放下了沉重心情，開始重新工作 ﹖ 她表示心情仍然沉重，因為自己很不捨得梅姐，尤其當火化時，法師叫親屬跟阿梅說小心火、小心上路，她聽到淚水控制不了。

Kelly 表示在解穢酒時，劉培基（ Eddie ）重提阿梅的舊事，因為講得很感性，所以又忍不住再喊。不過她知道也必須收拾心情投入工作，不想影響其他人。

Andy Helping Kelly

Kelly and Andy Lau were a compatible pair on TVB Jade Solid Gold's awards presentation in that both of them won 3 awards each. Besides a song award and the Asia Pacific Singer Award, they were voted by the public as the Charity Favourite Duo. But then Kelly did not get into key for the song several times and needed Andy's help. Kelly seemed anxious and had grasped on firmly to Andy's hands.

Andy had later explained that Kelly was unable to attend the rehearsal in the afternoon but he has practised the song with other nominees 2R and Twins. He had also felt that the tune played by the 12 Girls Band was very different from the original tune of Leslie Cheung's song. He had received praises in his experience to handle such situation well in helping Kelly. He answered that he was just doing his job.

As to Kelly loosing the Most Popular Female Singer Award to Joey Yung, she has felt that the Asia Pacific Female Singer Award is hard to get as well. However, Kelly said that Joey has deserved the award. As to why her singing was not up to standard during the charity song segment, Kelly admitted that she had missed the earlier rehearsal due to other work commitment. The music background was beyond what she had expected. She had raised her key when starting to sing the song and had affected her performance. Despite this, she still denied that she was anxious at that time. This experience has made her pay attention to doing rehearsals for duets in the future.

華仔執生為Kelly補鑊

劉德華與陳慧琳可說十分有緣，在「勁歌」頒獎禮中，同樣獲得三個獎項且性質完全相同。二人除分別有歌曲獲得金曲獎外，又分別奪得「亞太區最受歡迎男歌手」及「亞太區最受歡迎女歌手」，而二人又同時獲得「公益金最喜愛慈善組合大獎」。不過，他們這對組合在領獎後合唱張國榮名曲《有誰共鳴》時，卻似乎有欠默契；當中 Kelly 更多番入不到 key ，要靠「華仔」補鑊。

事緣他們領取獎項後，便與「女子十二樂坊」合作演唱《有誰共鳴》， Kelly 先開口，但已入不到音，即時要由「華仔」補唱，之後她多次不能到位，更緊張得拚命捉著「華仔」的手，唱來大為失準。事後「華仔」表示，下午綵排時， K e l l y 來不及到場，他就分別與 Twins 及 2R 合唱；一聽到音樂時已覺得有問題，因由「女樂」伴奏而與張國榮的原來版本完全不同，可能是中、西樂有別。有指他為 Kelly 執生好勁，「華仔」則謙稱盡了本份而已。

至於 Kelly 失意「最受歡迎女歌手」並不感到失望，覺得「亞太最受歡迎女歌手」獎更難呢！而她亦覺得容祖兒奪獎是實至名歸。說到她與「華仔」合唱時失準， Kelly 坦言因時間關係沒有綵排，臨場時才發覺音樂並非自己熟悉的，而入 key 時更升高了調，因此影響了演出水準，但她仍力撐自己不緊張。不過，經此一役，她表示以後遇到這種情況時會揀唱合唱歌。

Kelly: All Problems Should Be Peacefully Resolved

Kelly had attended the opening event for a complex in Mongkok yesterday afternoon. At the event, she was presented with a cheque donation of $180 000 to her Children Education Fund. As the time coincides with the schools' dismissal time, the area was crowded with students. Kelly had indicated that her Education Fund has been set up for 2 years and the primary purpose is to aid students in their payment of educational fees.

11th and 12th of January is Anita Mui's funeral. During this time, there has always been reports on the dispute between Anita's manager, Marianne, and Anita's mother. Kelly mentioned that she does not like to read such reports because she does not want to be bias on who's side. She added that too many things had happened after Anita's death. She was already sad and did not want any further reports to affect her mood.

Kelly had expressed that she is unfamiliar with Anita's mother but she has contacts previously with Mirianne due to work. On many people pinpointing at Mirianne, Kelly felt that she is a friendly and hardworking person. During the 1:99 concert, it was Mirianne who contacted her for the performance. Kelly has hoped that all problems will be ultimately be peacefully resolved.

There are rumours that Joey Yung will be the winner of this year's Most Popular Female Singer award for TVB Jade Solid Gold. Kelly felt that the result should be so as Joey is popular in the year. As to whether Kelly has any confidence, she is much more confident on winning the Asia Pacific Female Singer award because she has been getting that for the past few years.

陳慧琳﹕萬事以和為貴

陳慧琳昨日出席旺角一商場舉行的開幕禮，更即場代表陳慧琳兒童助學基金，接收一張十八萬元的支票。活動舉行時，正值放學時間，故吸引大批學生圍觀。 Kelly 指基金已經成立兩年，主要是對一些有需要的兒童提供教育資助。

本月十一日及十二日是梅艷芳的喪禮，在喪禮未舉行前，有關梅媽媽及經理人 Mar-ianne 的是非亦傳個不停。對此， Kelly 指自己從來都不愛看這些新聞，因為不想受報道影響自己對某個人的看法。她說：「實在牽涉太多事，梅姐過身已經好唔開心，唔想再被某些報道影響心情。」

Kelly 表示與梅媽不太熟絡，但與 Mari-anne 就曾在工作上合作過。對於現在矛頭都指向 Marianne ， Kelly 覺得對方是個好友善及落力的人，好像去年舉行「 1 : 99 音樂會」時，都是 Marianne 聯絡她的。總之希望無論如何，萬事都應以和為貴。

另外，有傳《勁歌金曲》「最受歡迎女歌星獎」將是容祖兒奪得， Kelly 覺得賽果應該是這樣。問到她是否沒有信心？她覺得以祖兒的氣勢都應該會奪得此獎，但自己就對「亞太區最受歡迎女歌星」一獎有信心，因為每年都是拿這個獎。

Plans To Release A Prose Collection

Kelly had earlier filmed a music special for TVB with Joe Ma and both of them had acted as lovers. In the story, Kelly plays a refined-looking writer and she had to wear spectacles whenever her character was at home. The TVB staff had prepared two pairs of spectacles for Kelly to choose and she selected the one with bigger rims. Because of this, Kelly was made fun that she looked like Arale in Dr Slump. On the other hand, Kelly had felt that her look with spectacles was interesting.

Kelly mentioned that she had never thought of becoming a writer because she feels that she lacks patience. Despite this, she occasionally has the habit of writing prose and she is interested to release a prose collection in the future. Also, TVB had approached her to film a TV serial and had even shown her the script. However, she was busy filming a movie and had to reject the offer.

Kelly 計劃出散文集

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）早前為無線拍攝《富豪海灣非凡情緣》，邀請了馬德鐘擔任嘉賓，並合演情侶，劇中 Kelly 飾演一名小說作家，打扮斯文。

自認冇耐性

Kelly 說：「我自己從來冇諗過要做小說家，因為冇耐性，不過間中都有寫散文，反而有興趣將來出本散文集。而之前無線都有搵過我拍劇，重有劇本睇，不過當時因為撞 o左電影檔期，所以合作唔成。」

在劇中每當 Kelly 在家中時就會戴眼鏡，工作人員準備了兩副眼鏡讓她挑選，結果她選了一對大框粗邊款式，但戴上之後，卻被取笑似《 IQ 博士》中的小雲，不過 Kelly 就自覺模樣有趣。

Giving Birth

Kelly had attended the charity drive at Shatin to sell chocolates and had received overwhelming response in donations. Kelly's recent mood was affected due to the demise of Anita Mui. She looked much happier yesterday during the event and she had said that it was probably doing charity work that made her feel happy. Kelly had expressed that she loves eating chocolates as she had used it to reduce the bitterness of Chinese medicine.

She admitted to falling sick easily during menstruation periods. Such sickness is reduced whenever she does exercises in dances for concerts and her songs. She had even experienced being unable to work due to pain from menstruation. As such, she always had to rest in these days and her manager or boyfriend will be around to take care of her.

The reporters told Kelly that giving birth will reduce menstruation aches. However, Kelly was doubtful as she had heard from doctors that those with serious menstruation aches may affect fertility and she was fearful that it may be true. She will seek further advice from the doctor on this matter. If giving birth will reduce her menstruation aches, will she want to have a baby now? Kelly's reply was that she will want that but she further questioned what if she had given birth but the pain will still persist. Will she consider getting married now? She will have to make a consideration.

Kelly想提早生BB 若懷孕可醫經痛

陳慧琳（ Kelly ）昨日出席沙田新城市廣場舉行之「加州紅愛心 Kelly 朱古力義賣月」慈善活動，為仁濟醫院教育服務基金籌募經費，反應踴躍。阿梅離去，近日 Kelly 情緒受到影響。昨日她心情稍為平復，精神不錯，她指做善事可帶來喜悅。 Kelly 表示喜歡吃朱古力，慣常以朱古力伴吃中藥，中和苦澀味。

工作曾受影響

Kelly 不諱言月經痛症嚴重，常有發冷、發熱、頭暈和嘔吐等徵狀，間中遇着演唱會跳舞或宣傳快歌，痛症才得以紓緩，但她閒時不常做運動，試過受經痛困擾而不能工作，故需靠食中藥調理身體，每個月不方便日子均要放假休息，而其經理人和男朋友也會隨時候命照顧她。

有指懷孕產子能醫經痛， Kelly 聞言即說 ﹕ 「係咩 ﹗ 我聽醫生講過，有嚴重經痛，與工作壓力和疲累有關，可能會影響生育，我都好驚。」 Kelly 稱會向醫生求證有關的經痛療法，問若然產子能醫經痛，她可會提早生仔 ﹖ Kelly 不停點頭示意，其後她反問 ﹕ 「有得生會嘗試，若然生完仔還有經痛點算 ﹖ 」追問她有無考慮提早結婚 ﹖ Kelly 說 ﹕ 「看看罷。」
