Chow Yun-Fat is very classy - a couple of autograph collectors waited outside of a restaurant in Los Angeles where he was eating; apparently he noticed and when he was finished eating, he had the restaurant employee summon the two collectors into the restaurant to sit with him and sign autographs. :)

I know a couple of women who think Carina Lau is the luckiest woman in the world to be married to Tony Leung because he's stayed with her through the good and bad times.

Isabella Leong's house - wood grain is definitely subjective to a person's tastes. Some people love the patterns (burl walnut, etc...), whereas some do not. Personally, I know that the fancy patterned grain is often less common than the straight grain, so I prefer it.

re: CYF, I've never heard a bad word about him. He seems to be a genuinely nice guy from all accounts.

re: Lau-Leung, Don't understand this marriage. Carina seems to have browbeat Tony into it but she doesn't act like she really wants to be married, at least according to the tabloids. A conundrum.

re: Isabella, She sounds like she's gotten used to living La Vida Rica. So what, I'm jealous. :D

Carina Lau: As I recall the stated reason for getting married at that time was that Carina's mom was worried she would never see grandchildren from them. Maybe they are tired of the "baby watch" by the media.

Thanks, Diana, for reminding me. I sort of recall that now. Well, Carina doesn't seem interested (in having a baby) anymore. And, truthfully, I can't see Carina in mother mode. :0 She's going to be 45 this year!

Likewise, seeing Esther Kwan, at 46, possible pregnant again -- that's really late!
