On May 12, 2008 the final 12 contestants for 2008 Miss Hong Kong attended a press conference at 香港大埔豪宅楼. They appeared in short colorful dress along with their banners. Pageants had to present a short introduction of themselves. Although they all seem to have an acceptable figure, but their is always room for improvement. The average age for this year was 22 years old, increased by one point compared to last year due to 4 pageants who are 24: including Jovy Leung, Chan ZinYang, Angela Yui, and Vanesse Wong.
One of the hot shots, #4 Samantha's figure worsen after her haircut showing her face's baby fat. Another image change contestant was #6 Chan Xin Yang, former flight server, who was suddenly spotted with an ATV artist. (Do you think you figure will affect your beauty?) Samantha replied: "It's doesn't matter, each has each beauty. Plus, I will not believe the rumors unless I heard it with my ears." One of the preview judges, Amanda S. suspected that contestant #8 Angela has been through a plastic surgery. Angela defended, "There are times when advertisement companies would addition to the advertising results, but joining the Miss Hong Kong competition is natural."
On the other hand, #3 Edelweiss was said to be with an unknown man in a hotel burning cigarettes. She stated clearly, "Lan Kwai Fong is one of Hong Kong's famous landscape. It's really normal for me to have a visit and I have already quit smoking. Back then I was only influenced by one of my good friends." (Did you offend someone, therefore the pictures were discovered?) Edelweiss shouted, "I did not offend anyone. I am clueless in who would do such thing." (Are you afraid that further private pictures will be leaked out?) She thought for a second then replied," I'm not afraid. My most private pictures were already posted." She pointed, "I have my parents approval for this competition. Before I was called a tomboy, therefore hopefully through this competition training I would learn to be more ladylike.
Private pictures of #2 was taken of the streets of them kissing. She admitted that the man was her boyfriend and calmly responded that kissing her boyfriend on a date is very normal. She cleared, " My boyfriend was driving me home. I life with my parents. I do not life with him." (Is drinking allowed?) She stated, "A little is fine. My parents taught me when I was little that women who knows how to drink will not suffer losses from any situations.
Similar looking Lun MeiGuey, #11 Ma Chai said, "Sometimes I do think I look like her, but I have would also have to say thanks to Jay Chow and Lun MeiGuey's help. My performances skills are really strong ever since I was small. Hopefully, I will have the opportunity to join the entertainment circle and film better movies. Joining the entertainment circle was always my dream. One's reputation is very important. Those who have a great outlook will have an advantage of taking the spot light." (How do you react against the media?" She replied," I was major in 传播学科. I do know what reporters want. "
Webmaster's Thoughts:
After seeing the second broadcast of the 2008 Miss Hong Kong preview, my favorite has now changed to #11 Ma Chai. Her debate was well said and very organized. Although her body size, height, and beauty lacks others, but based on her skills by now, she is the most representable. I don't find it surprising that #8 was rumored that she was through a plastic surgery before, due to the fact that she was occupied as a model before. I didn't notice Samantha's haircut if it wasn't pointed out. I guess she wants a refreshing looks and brand new start. I thought Edelweiss overreacted against her rumores. Just telling the audience that she is really concerned in regarding her personal photos being released. I was observing their post and their way of standing and noticed that out of the all, #11 was the sharpest in her stance. She smile and facial expression wasn't as beautiful as others, but calm and speaking of her stance is the "beauty pageant" way. However, I am disappointed in all because by far, based on the news that I have read, these ladies are just using this competition to connected them up to the entertainment circle and not purposley joining so that the can represent Hong Kong making it a better place.
