Hong Kong singer-actor Raymond Lam recently held a seven-day concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum.
Throughout the run, the 45-year-old invited various guest performers to join him on stage.
But the moment that created the biggest buzz came on the sixth night, when actress Linda Chung made a surprise appearance.
Lam and Chung, 41, were co-stars in the hit 2007 TVB drama Heart Of Greed , which also featured big names like Moses Chan, Tavia Yeung and Bosco Wong.
In the series, they portrayed love interests whose undeniable chemistry made their characters fan favourites.
Since then, the pair have rarely shared the screen.
So it was a nostalgic treat for fans when Chung and Lam reunited to perform a duet during the concert – a moment that moved Chung to tears, prompting Lam to comfort her with a hug.
According to a report by Jaynestars.com, the two even addressed each other by their characters' names from Heart Of Greed on stage.
They fondly reminisced about their past collaboration with Chung expressing joy at their reunion after a decade.
She also complimented Lam for his present success with the concerts, to which Lam promised to be a guest at her future concert.
The duo also delighted fans by singing part of the Heart Of Greed theme song in response to audience requests.

Actress Daphne Low suffers first-degree burn from curling iron in stylist mishap
Taiwan-based Malaysian actress Daphne Low has accused a hair salon in Taipei of unprofessionalism and negligence. Photos: Daphne Low/Instagram Taiwan-based Malaysian actress Daphne Low recently took to social media to call out a hair salon in Taipei for its unprofessionalism and negligence. In a lengthy Instagram post on Wednesday (May 28), Low, 31, revealed that she had suffered a first-degree burn on her left cheekbone from a curling iron in a stylist mishap last month. 'During the session, due to the stylist's error, a curling iron heated to nearly 200°C slipped from a height and landed directly on my left cheekbone before falling onto my thigh. 'As an artiste who regularly undergoes styling, I've never encountered such an outrageous accident. I was in so much pain but remained calm and didn't lash out at the staff,' she wrote, adding that the employees gave her an ice pack to relieve the pain. While the salon waived the session fee and gave her a discount voucher for the next visit, Low didn't dare return. 'The next day, there was visible swelling and redness below my left brow and around my eye. It was worse than I imagined. I went to a clinic right away, and the doctor diagnosed it as a first-degree burn,' she said. While not the most serious type of burn, Low expressed concern over the risk of scarring – a potential career setback for an actress. The Ola Bola (2016) star alleged that when she informed the salon she would follow up after her medical consultation, a staff member assured her they would stay in touch. Although the actress initially intended to resolve the matter in private, she chose to publicise it after claiming that none of the staff had responded to her concerns for over a month. 'I have always advocated for harmony and am well aware of the challenges in the service industry. 'If the salon hadn't given me the cold shoulder for over a month, I never would've made it public,' she wrote. View this post on Instagram A post shared by 劉倩妏 Daphne (@daphnelaven)

Miss Grand International 2024 termination sparks online backlash
Rachel Gupta, 21, is an Indian model and beauty queen who made history as the first Indian to win the Miss Grand International title in 2024. Prior to this, she was crowned Miss Grand India 2024 and Miss Super Talent of the World 2022. - Photo: The Nation/ANN NEW DELHI: Rachel Gupta, the 21-year-old model from Jalandhar who made history by becoming the first Indian to win the Miss Grand International title in 2024, has now relinquished her crown — just seven months into her reign. However, the organisers mentioned that her title has been revoked, adding that 'the crown be returned to the MGI Head Office within 30 days from the date of this notice.' The organisation's head office is in Bangkok. The announcement quickly went viral, as it is rare for a titleholder to be dethroned mid-reign. Netizens swiftly began digging into the controversy, speculating and exposing alleged details. Theories ranged from breaches of discipline and inappropriate behaviour to long-standing internal issues dating back to the day she was crowned. Some even linked the dismissal to potential breaches of contract or silent defiance of the organisation's policies. Fans have rallied behind Gupta, pushing the hashtag #JusticeForRachel to trend in several countries, while demanding a clearer explanation from the pageant organisation. - Photo: Instagram On Wednesday (May 28), Rachel announced her resignation on Instagram, citing 'broken promises, mistreatment and a toxic environment.' Gupta addressed the situation via Instagram, stating: 'To all my supporters around the world: I'm truly sorry if this news has disappointed you. Please know this wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one for me.' 'The truth will come out very soon. I love you all more than words can express. Thank you for standing by me.' The following day, she released a YouTube video titled 'The Truth about Miss Grand International — My Story,' in which she offered an unfiltered account of her experience, levelling disturbing allegations against the pageant's organisers. However, on its official Instagram page, Miss Grand International released a statement mentioning that Rachel's title was revoked due to 'her failure to fulfill her assigned duties, engagement in external projects without prior approval from the organisation, and her refusal to participate in the scheduled trip to Guatemala.' 'Miss Rachel Gupta is no longer authorized to use the title or wear the crown associated with Miss Grand International 2024,' it added. - Photo: The Nation/ANN Long-term impact of such experiences on mental health and self-worth Gurleen Baruah, existential psychotherapist at That Culture Thing, tells 'In such environments, a woman's body becomes a product to be displayed, measured, and controlled. Over time, this relentless pressure can lead to internalised perfectionism, body dysmorphia, disordered eating, and a haunting belief that love, success, or safety depends entirely on how you look.' What makes it even more harmful is the emotional isolation. Baruah explains that when you're surrounded by glamour but deprived of real support or autonomy, self-doubt turns into quiet self-rejection. Signs that someone might be trapped in a toxic or exploitative environment One of the clearest signs of a toxic or exploitative environment is the loss of personal autonomy. Baruah states, 'When adults are denied access to essentials, and expected to perform happiness while privately struggling, it starts to mirror cult-like dynamics. Subservience is rewarded, dissent is punished, and over time, the person may begin to question their own judgement.' Seeking help in these situations is hard, especially when power dynamics are steep and isolation is enforced. But even the smallest act of reaching out — whether it's talking to a trusted family member, quietly messaging a friend, or contacting a support organisation — can begin to break the silence. - Agencies

(Photo by Viken KANTARCI / AFP) A new mural depicting a lighthouse by world-famous street artist Banksy has appeared on a wall in the southern French city of Marseille, with AFP confirming its location on Friday. The anonymous artist known as Banksy revealed the new work on Instagram on Thursday but its location had not been disclosed. The words "I want to be what you saw in me" are stencilled in English across the black lighthouse set against a beige stucco wall. The mural is on quiet street near the Catalans beach not far from the city centre, according to an AFP correspondent. The lighthouse's painted shadow connects to one of the street bollards lining the sidewalk.

"It's fascinating that Banksy chose a city like Marseille, which has so much art, foreigners and life," said Esteban Roldan, a 42-year-old carpenter who came to see the artwork. "This is huge, Banksy in Marseille," added another local, Virginie Foucault. She said she was having lunch nearby. "I thought to myself, 'I'm not going to find it in Les Catalans,' and then, by chance – I never go there – there it is. We love it, we love it!" For Susan McAllister, a 60-year-old British teacher, "It was nice to have a little search to discover where it was. I'm happy I found it." "It's exciting, I'm happy he is exploring different places in different cities to display his art or her art," she said. "It might be a woman." Banksy is best known for hard-hitting murals, often using a distinctive stencilling style, that frequently pop up on buildings and walls. In recent years, he has kept the attention of the contemporary art world with his social commentaries and causes – migrants, opposition to Brexit, denunciation of Islamist radicals – while still stirring the excitement of the moneyed art markets. The artist boasts an A-list client lineup and has sold his works for tens of millions of pounds at auction since the early 2000s. – AFP
