Mr Hong Kong 2007 Applications Opened

TVB's Mr Hong Kong Contest 2007 will be held on 1st August and this year's categories have changed from the 'stylish' and 'fitness' groups to 'young' and 'mature' instead, with the minimum age to take part being lowered to just 16 years of age and there is no upper limit. A group of former contestants including Stephan and Francois Huynh and Rocky Cheng joined Miss Hong Kong representatives Koni Lui, Tracy Ip and Aimee Chan to promote the application procedure yesterday. This year's poster will predominantly feature brothers Stephen and Francois, with Matthew Ko noticeably absent. The organisers indicate that this is purely down to promotional messages and there is no other reason. Stephen is thankful for the opportunity and he will invite his friends to enter.

With earlier reports that she was spotted with her family shopping for property and furniture, Tracy explained: "I have not decided to buy anywhere yet, but I am an adult now and I should have my own mortgage. My parents are getting older now and as their daughter, I should make arrangements to make their futures a little more comfortable." Tracy indicates that most of her salary every month is given to her mother for housekeeping, but sometimes she still runs out of money and her mother helps her out.

With the earlier criticisms about her exaggeration in her series "Puzzle", Koni says: "Maybe it was a misunderstanding, my image is that of a Bond girl, so I don't have much to say. I don't mind people saying I am spinning round and making them dizzy." Asked if she will be inviting her boyfriend to take part in the contest, Koni says: "I have asked him to take part, but it is up to him whether he does or not."
