Raymond Lam caught on a date with his 'crush' 18 year old Karena Ng

[East Week] recently spotted Raymond Lam with his 'crush'. It turns out his crush is 18 year old, Karena Ng, a newcomer in the film industry this year. The two sparked after collaborating in the film Love is..Pyjamas earlier this year in April. A few days ago, the film company held an end-of-filming karaoke celebration, Raymond and Karena were seen chatting quietly off to the side where there were no people around. They were flirting the entire night until morning. On Saturday (7/21), the two were spotted on a date in Central. Because it was raining at the time, Raymond instantly protected Karena from the rain and walked her to the 7-seater van that was already parked nearby. The van drove them to another building.

When they got to their destination, Raymond and Karena went into the building. After about an hour, the two were seen walking out of the building. At this time, they must have noticed reporters taking pictures, so they quickly got in a taxi and kept their distance while in the taxi. Soon after, the taxi stopped and Raymond suddenly jumps out of the car and quickly ran away. Karena was left in the taxi alone.

Yesterday Karena responded to the rumor through her management: "Raymond Lam is just a friend, we aren't dating." She explained she and Raymond were invited to a private dinner party with a large group of friends. Coincidentally they were nearby, so they met up to take the taxi together to the location. However, Raymond suddenly remembered he had to buy something, so he got out of the taxi midway. Based on Karena's explanation, she really defended Raymond.

It was said Raymond sang love songs to Karena at the karaoke. Karena's manager said: "Actually that dinner party was just the Love is...Pyjamas end-of-filming celebration. The entire cast and crew were there playing, Raymond didn't sing the love songs, that were stated in the magazine."

His goal is not the Mid-Levels luxury homes, the most important is for the home to be suitable for his status and his capability.

A magazine reported that when shooting new series Justice Pursuit & Attack, the cast boycotted former ATV artist Alice Chan and at the end-of-filming celebration dinner, they teamed up and forced her to drink. Michael said: "Of course we didn't do that, that night we all had a good time. The atmosphere was very harmonious, no one gossiped. We were all happy to have accomplished something together. If you give me a toast, I will give you a toast back. That magazine is speaking nonsense, and 10 reasons could be made just by 1 photo."

Kenneth lost in the game and was penalized to brush his teeth with shrimp paste, but he had a complaint on Sammy: "He deliberately made me lose and only goes easy on the beauties. Luckily, when I get back to shooting later, I don't have any kiss scenes, otherwise with my bad breath, people will definitely dislike me."

This is Fala's first time on a Q & A game show, she refuted Kenneth's complaint: "I even got their names mixed up, I called them 'Sam Yee, Siu Mei', why would Sammy go easy on me?." Samantha just published a book at the Book Fair, and expressed initially she invited Sammy to help her write the preface for her new book, but he declined, so she doesn't believe Sammy was being biased in the game: "Instead Fala helped me write it." Fala praised Samantha's good literature and she also hopes to publish her own book too.

This year at the Book Fair, there was a Lengmo who had a completely nude photo book. Kenneth expressed: "That is too over, next year there should be an adult section at the Book Fair, put all the lengmos there. When asked if Kenneth interested in checking the book out? He said: "No interest, too disgusting. I am a normal pervert, but they (lengmos) could only attract the abnormal perverts." Samantha and Fala expressed it's a bad influence on the children, Fala said: "That's their personal freedom, they weren't forced to do it, they chose to do it themselves, but it shouldn't be allowed at the Book Fair."
