Two nights ago the KKBOX HONG KONG MUSIC AWARDS took
place at the AsiaWorld-Expo. Aside from Hins Cheung King Hin, the band Dear
Jane, and the injured Keung To were absent, the other 8 "artists of the
year" gathered on the stage. Among the "artists of the year", as
from MIRROR breaking into the top ten as a group, members Anson Lo,
Edan Lui Cheuk On, Ian Chan, Keung to and Jer Lau Ying Ting also
were on the list as solo artists. The entire evening became a MIRROR
show. The event even arranged for the first time award winner Anson
Lo to open the show. He performed two songs in a row and then other
members took turns to perform solo and perform with other singers,
driving the over 9,000 fans on hand wild!
Edan won the "artist of the year" and the "new artist of the
year". Winning two individual wards, he performed two songs. Then
after 3 years away from large scale performance Leo Ku Kui Ke made a
surprise appearance for their duet FLOATING CLASSROOM. After the
performance they embraced each other. Edan said, "Completely because
of a promise from Goo Sir's son, Goo Sir was successfully brought
back to the stage." Another focus figure was Ian, who made his
first public appearance after just revealing to have ended his 2 year
relationship with his model girlfriend Amy Lo Wai Man. Although the
heart break hurt, his performance was praised as exceptional. He
had no fear of opening up the wound, performing DWBF with the hidden
"code of love".
MIRROR also performed the finale. The 11 members first sang
and danced two group songs, then for MIRROR fans performed the
release after the "hiatus" WE ALL ARE. Perhaps due to the trauma
or the pressure from the criticism, Anson Lo was about to open his
mouth but broke into tears first. He completely lost his composure,
Jer immediately sang for him and consoled him with a hug. Many
members were also affected. Keung To watched the live broadcast and
cheered for his group mates. He posted, "All along it's really been
tough on everyone, I really wanted to be with you. Proud of you
guys. As a member of MIRROR I am always very proud."
About Anson Lo soaking the stage with tears, some online
ridiculed, "Selling tragic again", "Crying again and again", "He
successfully stole the spotlight again". Still teary eyed during his
interview, he said, "It was the first time I publicly performed this
song, I was reminded of a lot. In addition this song was dedicated to
the fans and listeners who supported us. The past several months have
been tough on everything, so I couldn't hold back at the moment. I
am very sorry." Captain Lokman also spoke up. "Performing this song
was a little touching, ultimately we haven't been on such a large
stage in awhile. So we got a little emotional." Jer also said that
he was moved and had his mind on Keung To. "I wish a speedy
recovery for him, so all 12 of us would be able to perform in our
entirety." MIRROR's concert dancers recently issued an open letter,
Lokman "slammed the gate shut" on the subject and said that the
matter has entered legal proceedings so they were not at liberty to
comment.
Just announced his breakup, Ian said that he and Amy would
support each other as friends. However because the relationship was
between the two of them, he would not say much. The only thing he
wanted to say was, "Amy is a great girl, I hope everyone would give
more space. Don't give her so much pressure. (Regret?) Everyone
experienced so much, it's after discussion we amicably come to this
decision." He also said that he did not need his group mate to share
his sorrow.
Edan and Leo Ku Kui Ke united backstage and presented hearts.
Gei Jai revealed that originally he would not return to the stage
until next year, thus the company at first turned down the
performance. However MIRROR's manager Sister Fa contacted him again,
and his son praised Edan Gor Gor's "Singing Good", so he changed his
mind. Edan said that on the stage he was so nervous that his hands
were shaking. Gei Jai also revealed that he sang the wrong lyrics.
He looked forward to next performance with Edan playing the piano as
well.
"Creative singer" Terence Lam Ka Him two nights ago at the
award show "unlocked achievement", turning from rarely speaking to
a chatterbox -- much to fans' surprise! Aside from the "Top Ten
Artists of the Year", he also host with the award ambassador Serrini.
Speaking of making this opportunity happen, he said that it was
completely due to a wish 2 years ago. "Originally I was full of
anticipation, thinking the partner with the big eyed 'Ka Yan". I
didn't know......it's just like an internet scam!" It was a jab at
the originally name "Leung Ka Yan" Serrini was not as advertised.
The entire audience cracked up at the moment.
The band Dear Jane was also one of the "Top Ten Artists of
the Year", unfortunately due to a member's positive test they were
absent. In the last minute they asked their junior colleague Panther
Chan Lui to perform on their behalf. She also thanked Dear Jane for
the invitation, otherwise she would not have the opportunity to step
foot on the stage. Lam Ka Him heard and suddenly said, "You can be
like me two years ago and just beg for the job!"
