Fala Chen to Return to Hong Kong for Summer Work
Although currently studying in New York, Fala Chen (陳法拉) periodically flies back to Hong Kong for work projects. during a school break to film a beauty brand commercial. Dressed in a simple cropped tank top and mini-shorts, Fala showed off her fit physique.
Afraid that her stomach would bloat before the photoshoot, Fala did not eat beforehand and did two hours of stretching. Fala revealed the secret behind her fit figure: she has a habit of always doing stretches for an hour each day before going to class. This gives her more flexibility, and relaxes and calms her mind before facing new challenges in class.
The photoshoot went smoothly for the most part. However, a hilarious accident occurred during the shot where Fala was required to pose on a sofa chair. Because her skin was so smooth, the first few times Fala tried lying down on the sofa, she slid off, causing the room of employees to erupt in laughter. Laughing at herself, Fala said this is the first time where having smooth skin was a shortcoming.
Fala will be flying back to New York to complete her class at The Julliard School, where she is currently enrolled in a masters program in performing arts. Fala revealed, “I’ll obtain the degree next year, but I have to repackage myself and accept new challenges! After my semester ends in May, I’ll return to Hong Kong to repay all my debts since there are many functions and opportunities lined up.”

One, did not recognize as her in the photo. Photo looks good and the girl looks pretty, but without caption she wouldn’t be my first guess. Then again, how much is that photoshopped?
Two, total BS that her “smooth skin” caused her to slide off the couch. It’s either 1, she didn’t have a good balance or 2, the products she put on to make her skin shiny and glowing is the cause of slippage, it’s like lotion or oil or what not. I’m leaning toward #2.
Three, how is HK entertainment treating oversea “drama graduates?” It sounds like she expects to have more doors open just because she has a degree from Julliards. I’m under impression of more who you know and your connection than your resume/credentials.
@jjwong Think she went overseas coz she was surround by negative news of her gold digging money from her ex-husband at the time.
@mike I thought the negative news were on the divorce/split.
@tiffany Yes, apparently Fala wanted too much gold from her then husband which resulted in the divorce. She was surrounded back those negative news until she left HK for school in NY.
@mike it’s interesting how certain news from that time period can be so different. i thought she just wanted a break after leaving TVB and venturing into China to improve herself. plus she realizes the split with her husband was due to her own negligence towards her own relationship. nothing to do with money.
@jjwong Right?! I just rolled my eyes so hard reading about her smooth skin causing her to slip. Puh-lease
omg she is so skinny! wish her all the best
i don’t recall any negative rumors going around about her when she had her divorce. i thought it was b/c she wanted to have a break through in her career. you know, staying in tvb or even going to china, you get to play the same role over and over again. same reason why wu ge decided to go to NY.
as for the photoshop comment, i don’t think the pic is Photoshop to make her look slender. she’s pretty slender. perhaps just lighting enhancements.
the smooth skin part, i thought was more like a joke. not so serious.
