Tuesday November 13, 2007 Hong Kong Tracy Ip (葉翠翠), Fala Chen (陳法拉) and supermodel Rosemary were guests at an opening ceremony for Seasons Fitness today. Tracy and Rosemary modelled some swimwear, whilst Fala demonstrated some flexing exercises. Tracy said that this is the first time she has appeared in a bikini since she took part in the Miss Hong Kong pageant, but she said that she is suffering from water retention, so she did not think she looked as fit as she could. As a result, she had a session on the slimming machine before the show to avoid people seeing her "piggy legs". She revealed that she is a lot fuller now than she was when she entered Miss Hong Kong because she used to wear size XS, but now she has to wear size M clothes. However, many people have said that she looks much healthier with a little weight on. Asked if she has gained a bust size, she smiled that she has benefitted all over and has gained a cup size. Asked why she seemed a little stiff on the catwalk, Tracy said that she was quite nervous. As for whether or not she has upped her fee for wearing a bikini, she said she did not know, because the company had arranged the job. With numerous promotional jobs coming her way, Tracy said it may be because short hair and a fuller figure is lucky for her. Fala was overshadowed by not appearing in a swimsuit, but she said she did not mind. She added that she has done a lot more sport since entering showbiz because she often has to rehearse her dancing. She also revealed that as part of her performance for the TVB Anniversary show, she will be suspended 20 feet into the air to perform a drumming routine, but every time she rehearses, she leaves with an aching body. batgwa.com will be bringing you extensive coverage of the TVB Awards Ceremony on 17 November and the TVB Anniversary Extravaganza on 19 November, so don't forget to tune in for THE most anticipated events of the TV year! credits: batgwa.
