The 2004 Olympic games will be taking place in Athens and begin on 13th August. TVB has invested over $40 million to air this event that only happens every four years.

The six Olympic stars will be singing the theme song for the promotional events and the Miss Hong Kong winners were present to host a flag raising show yesterday where the show’s chief organiser Wong Ka Leung officially named the six stars who are Raymond Lam, Ron Ng, Sammul Chan, Bosco Wong, Kenneth Ma and Chris Lai who will be singing the theme song. The hosts for the Olympic coverage will be including Andy Hui, Vincent Kuk, Michelle Ye, Myolie Wu and Joe Ma who all appeared as guests at yesterday’s ceremony. There were rumours suggesting that TVB are using their own artistes to cut the cost of hiring in external stars such as Hacken Lee, Nat Chan and Eric Tsang and using the relatively cheaper Andy Hui instead. Wong indicated that this is not the case and he will be inviting them to join in as guest hosts. As for who will be sent to do live reports from Athens, this is yet to be decided as the event is still some time off and there is an element of briefing, but everyone is ready to fly out if it is needed.

Bosco Wong Wrongly Accused of Stealing Girlfriends

Bosco Wong and Lily Lei together with Marsha Yuen took part in an RTHK event yesterday and recently there have been reports of Bosco out shopping with a female in Tsimshatsui and suggestions that Bosco was ordering the girl to go and buy food whilst he looked around in a bookshop and was mistakenly identified as Ron Ng!

Bosco responded to the reports saying that he has been wrongly accused of dating a friend’s girlfriend: “I just laughed when I read the report because that was my friend’s girlfriend. (Will you avoid her now?) You can’t avoid your friends, but if I start dating in the future, I will be more careful when we go out. Holding a girl’s hand is normal social behaviour, but kissing and hugging in public is unsavoury and I will not do that.”
