Plastic Surgery: Tavia Yeung’s Growing “Pinnochio” Nose
Since highest-earning fadan, Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼) left TVB, Tavia Yeung (楊怡) successfully climbed to the top. Recently, Tavia’s series aired one after another. Rather than focusing on her acting, the audience noticed that Tavia’s nose was growing like wooden puppet, Pinnochio! With the healthy ratings of TVB’s new series, The Other Truth <真相>, Tavia’s plastic surgery rumors were once again in rife discussion. Many netizens commented that watching Tavia’s series was similar to watching the chronicles of Pinnochio!
Allegedly, due to the wide media coverage of Tavia’s “Pinnochio nose,” Tavia had to maintain the shape of her nose through annual hyaluronic acid injections. Compared to her flat nose shape when she first entered the entertainment industry in 1995, Tavia’s current nose was a lot higher and sharper.
The Changing Shape of Tavia’s Nose Over the Years
In 2001, during The Awakening Story <婚前昏後>, the bridge of Tavia’s nose was low and the tip was round and did not appear prominent. During the filming of Golden Faith <流金歲月>, her nose was wide and not long.
In 2007, along with her rising career, Tavia’s nose shape changed. The bridge of her nose heightened and the tip of her nose was slightly more prominent.
In 2010, Tavia’s nose grew mysteriously longer while filming The Mysteries of Love <談情說案> [and Yes Sir, Sorry Sir <點解阿Sir係阿Sir>. The tip of her nose was very prominent and resembled Pinnochio’s nose. However, Tavia denied plastic surgery and insisted that the results were due to make-up. In 2011, after years of modifying its shape, Tavia’s nose appeared longer and the tip grew as well.
Annual Hyaluronic Acid Injections In Nose
An inside source revealed, “Actually Tavia’s nose is not considered to be too flat. However, her nose bridge is not high and the nose tip a bit wide. Since she is afraid of pain, she will not opt for plastic surgery. Several years ago, Tavia started getting hyaluronic acid injections from a doctor. Each time, she received a minor injection, so the results were not too noticeable [by the public at first]. In recent years, she told the doctor that she wanted her nose to be more prominent. After the [recent] hyaluronic acid injections, the public commented that she had a ‘Pinnochio nose.’ The hyaluronic acid gets absorbed by the body within six months to a year. Each time Tavia stars in a prominent series or important advertisement, she will see the doctor first to avoid her nose appearing differently.”
Allegedly, Tavia will see the doctor several days prior to the onset of an important project. After the hyaluronic acid injections, there will be minor swelling in the area. Since Tavia received the injections on a regular basis to maintain her “Pinnochio nose,” there were periods of two to three months in which Tavia’s nose would have minor differences. Since the tip of Tavia’s nose sometimes appeared rounder while other times sharper, no wonder netizens also noticed the difference.
Tavia’s Doctor Revealed She Was A Frequent Customer
Accompanied by a female friend, a Sudden Weekly reporter had a one-hour consultation with Tavia’s doctor, Chow Wing Chow (周永就) in the Central district. Aside from explaining the use of hyaluronic acid injections, Dr. Chow also revealed that Tavia Yeung was a frequent customer.
After assessing the reporter’s female friend’s facial features, the following conversation took place at Dr. Chow’s clinic:
D=Dr. Chow; F= Reporter’s female friend
D= To get hyaluronic acid injections in the nose bridge and nose tip would cost $6,500 HKD per injection shot. The results would last for one year.
F= Will there be side effects?
D= No. After the injection shot, there is usually a minor redness and a little mark. However, the mark resembles a tiny mosquito bite and not noticeable. After the hyaluronic acid shots, you can go out to see other people and even go on the airplane.
F= Can you lower the price a little. I was recommended by Miss Yeung to come here.
D= Which Miss Yeung?
F= Ah Yi recommended me to come here. Since she is an actress, of course she has money!
(Dr. Chow laughed and folded his arms.) D= Ah, Tavia Yeung. Actually, the price is very fair. Tavia has not come here as frequently lately…. She really turned more beautiful lately! Aside from her, many TVB actresses are my clients!
F= After getting the hyaluronic acid shots, will the nose become stiff and hard, resembling a wooden puppet’s nose?
D= Of course not. It is enough to get one shot each year. If you are too anxious and get the shots too frequently, of course there will be problems!
Tavia Denied Altering Nose
At a recent promotional event with the 2011 Miss Hong Kong contestants, Tavia responded to allegations that she had altered her nose, “Reporters have touched my nose and examined it. I did seek the consultation of Dr. Chow many years ago to remove a birthmark. I wanted to say hi to the doctor because the birthmark near my brow bone is not completely gone yet. I have to ask him to follow up on the matter.”
Tavia said she did not mind the recent Sudden Weekly report. If she were to receive plastic surgery, there were many areas that she would need to fix. “I want to make my nose higher. If I needed to fix it, I’ll wait until I’m older. I’ll just get facials now.”
Excerpts from Sudden Weekly # 834 and Appledaily
Jayne: It’s quite obvious that Tavia did get something done to her nose to make the profile more defined and nose tip more prominent. The results seem the most obvious in Yes Sir, Sorry Sir.
anyway she still good looking and sweet smile.
I thought she’s quite cute too. It’s as clear as daylight that she got her nose done, just that she always denies it every time. I don’t think people are as dumb as she think they are, her nose is just too slender comparing to when she first started in the industry.
I don’t think Tavia looks that great, but at least before she had this done, she already looked decent. I really can’t stand it when Tavia or anyone denies that they had something done when it is sooo clear that they did just by looking at them. What do they think?? Do they think that we are blind or something??
I’ve suspected her nose plastic surgery ages ago…..bcos it’s too obvious a change. No point denying.
Her nose really grow a lot
I don’t know why she decides to do her nose. Her nose was perfectly fine in the past. I fact, I thought her nose was beautiful. Now, it’s just took huge.
Kidd,
According to the article, Tavia started getting injections for her nose in 2007. I found her nose to be perfect shape at that time, defined by not too unnatural looking.
The photos of “Yes Sir, No Sir” make her nose look too sharp, too protruding and unnatural.
Btw, if Myolie Wu did get a nose job, it was likely through the hyaluronic acid injections as well because it appears to be such a simple, quick procedure.
I found Myolie and Tavia to have always been pretty when they first started acting. However, they lacked a dazzling beauty to them and maybe that was the reason they both opted for nose jobs, to make the contours of their faces and features pop more.
I don’t know about Myolie’s nose, but I thought it’s her chin that look changed.
Vivien,
I didn’t notice drastic changes in Myolie’s features either, but she does appear prettier these days. Other readers have commented on her chin and nose jobs lately.
If Myolie did do work on her face, it was likely through hyaluronic acid injections, which is a derma filler injected into the skin. After injection, the doctor will massage and mold the area to the desired shape. Derma fillers are typically used to fill in wrinkles and also for facial contouring of nose, chin, etc.
I am sure she did. Her nose, chin, looks very different and yet subtly you know?
@Jayne
Some magazines have reported about Myolie’s feature change too. I suspect she got these injections too and shaped her face to look sharper. Losing of baby fat won’t change features like that rofl.
Chin can be changed without plastic surgeries, just need botox.
Hm… I have never heard of these injections before.. Interesting.. BUt I don’t think they are long lasting..
Do these injections even last that long?? They really remind me of botox injections. Do they tense up the skin like botox does?? The pain and sacrifices for beauty.. Is it worth it or not??
@HTS,
“Do these injections even last that long??”
According to the doctor, the last up to a year. IMO, I think it’s worth it for a rising actress like Tavia. It doesn’t cause much pain compared to plastic surgery.
“The pain and sacrifices for beauty.. Is it worth it or not??”
I also want to know if there really aren’t any side effects like the doctor claimed. Somehow, I always sense that there are some kind of side affects for these types of injections. They can’t be that healthy to get.
If there really aren’t any horrible and extreme side effects, I think it’s a good bargain for a year. Celebrities need to look pretty and the injection shot isn’t too painful for an adult to receive.
@Chriselle,
Thanks for reminding me. I skimmed through the article and did not read the entire article last time so I missed the fact that the shot lasted 1 year. I highly doubt that these shots have no side effects. Of course the doctors will say that they don’t so that they can have more money and more clients. If they scare the clients then less people will come to them. Just like with those skin whitening pills, many people say that those are good for you and have no side effects at all. Sorry, but I don’t find that believable at all.
I don’t think Tavia even needed these injections since her nose looked fine before. Also, even if she is a rising actress, who said that it was because of her nose?? Like Charmaine’s nose is natural and she is successful, therefore, I don’t understand why Tavia even needed to feel self conscious about her nose. I feel that she should have concentrated more on taking care of herself and improving her acting rather than how her nose looks. Having a higher nose will not help her much in my opinion. It actually will hurt her more since I think she has gotten sick due to these injections for just a temporary higher nose. I personally don’t think it is worth it at all…Health is more important than anything since without health, you cannot do anything or enjoy anything.
“Of course the doctors will say that they don’t so that they can have more money and more clients. If they scare the clients then less people will come to them. ”
TBH, are doctors even allowed to lie to their clients if they ask them? Personally, when I see a doctor for anything, I would ask thorough questions to make sure everything would be alright later on.
Perhaps only Tavia and only those who had those injections can access whether they’re worth the sacrifice. I have a feeling the side effects affect each person differently, perhaps depending on their immune system and other factors?
Now I’m really curious if Myolie received the same injections. I must admit that her nose was very pleasant to watch in Ghetto Justice. 😀 It completed her lawyer look very well.
Besides Tavia and Myolie, almost every artistes do something to their looks. Just today when I was watching a TVB entertainment programme, I noticed that even Wayne Lai looks different. His skin seems smoother and his face sharper..
Ang,
Maybe Wayne Lai got botox or derma fillers to fill out wrinkles?
To be fair, Wayne also lost a lot of weight in the last 2 years, so his sharper face may have been due to weight loss.
Success can change a man’s look. Like on wedding days brides are prettier. But yes, I think Wayne Lai got himself some work done as maybe facials, and such. But I doubt botox. Because he knows as an actor he needs to be able to move his facial muscle. That is his no. 1 priority. So maybe he just got better foundation put on his face.
Yup he has a lost a lot of weight and now that he’s offered male leads, he gets more attention and naturally, better make-up and such. Since he’s taking on roles of a 30 something year old, he probably feels pressured to get facials and some fillers (crow’s feet etc).
He stop smoking.
As long as it is subtle, improves instead of changes a face, I think it is a job well done. She is still boring though.
Funn,
Tavia is too safe in her interviews and often provide comments that are too neutral, thus not coming through with a clear distinct personality with good quotes.
However, I think Tavia’s fashion sense has improved in recent years.
Don’t doubt her fashion sense. I do think she looks very glamarous these days, TOO glamarous. She tries hard to change her outward image, and she is a serious actress but she is not an engaging one and again she is boring. Even as a serious actress I find she lacks charisma.
And I don’t like the title ““Pinnochio” Nose”. For a moment I thought she lied about something when pinnochio in the article refers to her longer and longer nose.
P/s her cheekbones look different to
I think so too. The cheekbones are higher. Isn’t in China somatomancy high cheekbone = easy to cause husband to die young? I wonder why actresses want to make higher cheekbones. Is it sexy in their opinions?
I was told high cheekbone is nice at least this is what the caucasian see as beauty. I don’t know sometimes I see some girls without cheekbone (flat) I would say, actually not so nice compare to a person with cheekbone but not too high lah..
Really?? I didn’t really notice her cheekbones until you mentioned it… Didn’t people not like high cheekbones?? My brother’s wife has them and I don’t find them attractive at all… I did not ever hear about having high cheekbones causing the husband to die faster though. I heard something about the eyebrows though..
Still prefer her previous look..currently her nose looks big & unatural..
maybe she thought since no surgery is involved, so it is not considered as plastic surgery. ..but as enhancement?
i think her nose is a bit too big now. it’s not very proportional. i noticed that while watching The Other Truth… it annoyed me because I cannot stop staring at her nose because it pops out so much, making the rest of her face look so small.
Also, I noticed something’s wrong with her mouth/lips while talking in The Other Truth, what’s wrong?
random G girl,
During the filming of the Other Truth, “Tavia lost her voice and was falling ill, her manager discovered her facial experiences were unnatural. Her illness quickly developed into uncontrollable facial muscles. It turns out that her exhaustion from the first half year was a cold that never cleared, the harmful bacteria went into her nerves and made her chin go crooked! “
Really? I’m watching The Other Truth now and didn’t notice anything wrong with her mouth/lips. There are only certain scenes where she had to do a voice-over later on, if I remember correctly.
Going to look out for her lips.
if you close your eyes, you can’t even tell there’s a speech impairment. but you can see it in TOT because of her nerve infection
I watched the latest episode of The Other Truth and IMHO, I can barely see anything unless someone told me. I just watched an episode of Tavia and Raymond Wong in The Green Room where they spoke abou their experiences in filming the series, Tavia admitted that she had health problems at the time and that it was a tiring filming process due to that.
I think she looked best in the 2007 photo? Although i’m a great fan of her , i also think her nose got bigger? But i don’t think she did surgery ..
nowadays she’s wearing a ton of makeup. In her crying scene in TOT you can get an idea of how much makeup she actually put on.
no side effects? common the effect will wear off eventually and maybe her nose will collapse entirely.
LOL~
I also wonder if there aren’t any side effects entirely.
possible side effects: http://www.steadyhealth.com/about/hyaluronic_acid_side_effects.html
another factor contributing to the fact that tavia have been “sick” lately.
Thanks so much for the link Exoidus!! I don’t know why Tavia even had to have these injections since she looked fine before. I don’t think these injections would make her anymore popular than she currently is..
yeah me either her nose was fine the way it was. maybe because her career was stalling?
btw we don’t know other possible side effects that haven’t been discovered yet or held back.
hope she stop taking these injections and that it’s not too late for her.
Thanks exoidus for the link.
It’s ironic how Tavia had health problems during the filming of The Other Truth. She claimed that it was due to her over-working during these years and that she did not have time to take care of herself when she was sick a while ago. It may also be due to these side effects.
I think Tavia should stop those injections if they are really causing her health issues. Her nose these days is a bit distracting to watch.
Thanks for the link. Any chemicals inserted into the body can have side effect. I also think that her hiatus last year was caused by this, or even a botched surgery.
Her nose in 2007 was quite nice, wonder why the need for such long tip?
Maybe Yeung Yee can play Pinnochio in a Christmas pantomime!! She’s got the looks!! Who nose, maybe her investment will pay off and gain more attention…….
The doctor in this article has already clarified in his weibo that tavia did not see him for many years and did not do any injections or whatever. She has been to him long ago but he cannot disclose the information.
Seriously, comparing her photos from 10 years ago to now, there could always be changes because of growing up, I know a lot of people like that who look different when they were young and they did not get plastic surgery! Even myself, when I was ~13 in my photos my eyes were not the way they look now. before it was more moon shaped now they are more pronounced and bigger and i did not get surgery.
But of course, getting popular comes with a price and that is ridiculous rumors , but Tavia’s EQ is high so she does not care
doctor’s weibo:http://weibo.com/2092148381
@周永就醫生DrStephen：分享圖片 忽然一週歪曲事實斷章取義是它的本性。你記者自己說是楊怡介紹的，我便奇怪說一句：她已經好多年沒找過我，並沒有說她找我幹啥。現在在雜誌封面說我漏口風，＄￥〒￠￡％℃！希望楊小姐明白吧！謹此澄清：事實是我並沒有幫她打透明質酸諸如此類，至於為甚麼找我，那不便透露。
LOL, the doctor realized that he has been framed by the news and attempts to clarify. Well the truth has been revealed and it’s too late to explain.
I agree with you Exiodus. I think that the doctor is so scared that no more people will come to see him, so he is trying to cover things up now… I still don’t get what the big deal is since many celebs have plastic surgery or injections of some sort to look better.
“Seriously, comparing her photos from 10 years ago to now, there could always be changes because of growing up”
Not like she started at 10 and then grew up. Your nose doesn’t suddenly get sharper and higher or longer. The chin doesn’t suddenly get sharper either. Make up does wonders, but not this obvious. It is what it is, there is no shame in wanting to look better.
I agree with Funn. She wasn’t 8,9,10 yrs old. The pictures were taken when Tavia was pretty much fully developed/grown. There’s no way it grew over night LMAO.
The last time i recall, my features are the same as to when i was in my teen years and now I’m 28.
Totally agree with Funn and very well said. Make up cannot do such wonders and you cannot change that much… She was not that young when she entered the circle either.
My appearance changed drastically from when I was 17 to 27. Granted, I think Tavia changes are from an older age bracket but it’s not impossible. Most people don’t have such a dramatic change though to be fair.
However, I do believe that she’s done something to her nose. I knew something was not the same!
The nose and eyes are features that can’t change drastically when you are in your late teen yrs. Perhaps, when you pass 40 yrs old, the structure of your face and skin may differed due to aging.
Doesn’t matter how old you are, You can’t go from one eye lid to two as you grow older. My niece had flat nose when she was a baby, and now shes 6, her nose bridge is pretty high. That I can see, but def not in some instances when the face is already matured. I just don’t buy it.
@ Tammy
Yes, you can turn from single eyelid to double eyelid without surgery. But, it takes a lot of work. You have to wear the double eyelid tape for a long time. The crease will develope after some time.
@Tammy
Changing from single eyelid to double eyelid is totally possible. I know people that had it happen. Although, it usually doesn’t occur, some people are known to have what’s between single and double eyelid, so as they grow older, a crease may start to appear.
My eyes and nose definitely look alot better now than I was a teen! I had chubby cheeks and was overweight well into my mid 20s hahaha
Your nose is based on your facial bones and your bones don’t suddenly change at adulthood. Losing weight can make chins, nose more prominent, but not from flat to high.
“Changing from single eyelid to double eyelid is totally possible. I know people that had it happen. Although, it usually doesn’t occur, some people are known to have what’s between single and double eyelid, so as they grow older, a crease may start to appear.”
I can agree with you on this because there are people I know that has between single and double eyelid. She was born with single eyelid but as she grow older her eyes can naturally interchange either single or double eyelid. Maybe depends on how she open her eyes ROFL
Well Tavia obviously can’t get mad over the news or else it will just be more proof that it is all true. However, we all know it just by looking at her. Does she think the audience and public or blind or stupid?? Sorry, but I find it pathetic that she is caught so red handed but still lies about it…
i used to love her old nose! thought it was the best looking nose in the entertainment industry. now it looks super fake. i cringe whenever i see her profile on tv.
Remember Kenix? She had a nice button nose and now… my god, what happened to her face?!
she had a lot done. i’m surprised that no one wrote anything regarding her surgeries
Yep, Kenix used to be gorgeous, even with her squarish jaw. Now she looks hella ugly after all that work done to her face.
I actually think a lot of artists look better when they were more natural.. But after all of the work that they did to their face and everything, they just look like some plastic dolls with the same old look…
I think the problem with Kenix is also that she lost a lot of weight. She’s way too skinny to be healthy. If she gained a bit more weight, her facial features might not be as scary.
whats so surprising about celebrity nose jobs?
Not surprising at all.
It isn’t surprising but is just more annoying that they are still denying it, that’s all..
ewwww Tavia looks like a shark from the side profile. it’s look exactly like the shark’s nose from the shark in the little mermaid but i couldnt find one so i found a similar pic. i always thought tavia looks sweet before now she’s kinda unattractive with her nose.. her nose is kinda big and wierd looking. eww
http://i54.tinypic.com/2yzbgcm.jpg
I first noticed Tavia’s nose changes in The Rippling Blossom. Her side profile made her high nose very apparent. It’s very obvious and Tavia should just have admitted it.
From these photos, I think her nose looks best in 2007. It appeared more natural, when she first started getting those injections. Nowadays, it seems too obvious to the point that it isn’t natural.
From the 2001 photo, Tavia appears to have a big and unattractive face. I agree with you guys and Tavia has grown more glamourous in recent years. Her short hair makes her appear more elegant and mature.
She also looks the best in 2007. From 2007 to now, her look becomes kinda fake. I prefer her look before 2007. More elegant as well (in ancient look).
Her nose looks best in 2007.
I wonder if artists first consult a feng shui master or psychic before consulting a plastic surgeon? LOL True story, but when I was 17, a Master told me to never get my nose done. At 25, I ignored the Master’s advice and went to consult a plastic surgeon. The Doctor was a superstitious old man haha he told me if I fixed my nose people wouldn’t like me as much since it currently has “charm”. LOL My current nose apparently fits the shape of my chin and face so HE REFUSED ME.
Since I was refused twice, I just decided to live with my nose..but I still don’t like it. haha I wonder if this is what artists do since there face is their “rice pot”? Tavia’s current nose is too long towards the tip. It’s fits the front view of her face, but is too harsh in the profile.
I wonder what a Master would say?
Even if she got injections, that is not surgery. It’s still her real nose. Better than Raymond Lam who clearly had a nose job, pieces of meat cut out then reattached.
I doubt it. She had a lot of baby fat when she first came out 12 years ago. She’s lost a lot of weight, struck with sickness so I’m not surprised her face naturally changed. Compare your own photos 15 years ago, surely you look different now.
Tavia clarified at an event yesterday saying she knows the doctor but haven’t seen him for many years. She saw him to get rid of blemishes and freckles and a mark on her eyebrow.
She is prettier now. And she does her makeup a bit more now. Her eye makeup and face makeup is heavier than when she was a kid. She’s got pretty good skin too.
LMAO~, LF = clearly, TY = no way? You are such a fan, girl.
I can give you a pic of ASITP vs TF and his nose even look higher in ASITP with the same angle :P.
When you like someone, the excuse will pop up immediately.
That picture is no good now. His nose changes at least once a year.
WOW, you must be a big fan since your comments are sort of blind… It is not her real nose as you can see. Of course, just like with any celeb that has had anything done, like they are going to admit it even it is sooo obvious… Also, do not trust everything any celeb says since most of the time, they are lying to their teeth…
Sorry, but I think Tavia wears way more make up than she did back then. I also heard that she recently had little pimples develop and all, so I am not sure if her skin is that great…
I don’t know if it’s right to judge whether one’s skin is good or bad based on having pimples. Personally, I get a few pimples developed on my forehead depending on what I eat. It comes and goes, but never stays too long. But I assume that it’s easier for some to have pimples develop on their skin than others?
and so not believable. Why would a doctor breach patient-confidentiality like that? That’s so unprofessional. Also im sure the Medical Board will question this if it was true.
Reporters make up stuff to spread false rumors. Hey who cares……..Even if she did get plastic surgery, her nose will not affect her acting. She looks prettier and prettier by the day. People won’t not like her because she doesn’t have a real nose.
It’s free advertising for Tavia.
Will have ppl not like her because she doesn’t have a real nose. Dun generalize everyone.
Yes, some people won’t like her new nose b/c they miss her old nose. Other ppl won’t like her b/c she won’t admit she had work on her nose. Then some other ppl don’t like her for a reason to be determined later.
You such a hypocrite. In another threads about Raymond Lam, you are always generalizing his fans saying “his fans don’t mind his paryting” … “his fans don’t like him the Linda”. You know all his fans and surveyed them all on every nitpicking thing abour YOUR idol?
If you can generalize, why can’t others?
LMAO~. Then I’m a hypocrite means others are hypocrite as well. As long as we are walking in the same shoes, TY fans, I dun mind :P.
At least I’m only generalize his fans, not the whole world. The whole world isn’t TY fans. She has at least 1 hater, aka me hehe.
Just because you’re a hypocrite and admits to be so doesn’t make everyone else one. Just speak for yourself please.
BTW, I’m not TY’s fan. I’m just a Raymond Lam hater :p Waiting for the day his nose collapses on him.
Generalisation theory affects to everyone, haha. Be yourself :P.
Well, if the doctor is being announced publicly, I don’t think it’s so weird for him to tell the public. Also, he didn’t exactly “breach patient-confidentiality”, since in his post, he mentioned that he can’t reveal why Tavia called him. However, Tavia did state that she went to the doctor to get rid of a birthmark.
I was also concerned about the confidentiality when I was reading the interview. He mentioned Tavia’s name and “other TVB actresses.” It felt like he was trying to advertise for himself by bragging how many celebrities came to visit him.
I still think Tavia looked the best in Enternal Happiness 2002…still remembered I love her nose
Eternal Happiness is one of my most fave series. BTW, I still rmb I was so “wow” when they claimed Myolie as a beauty in this one.
yea..felt so bewildered..kept thinking Tavia is the real beauty while watching the series…
Nope, I think Michelle is haha
Yep, I think Michelle was fairest of them all.
Although tavia did have a beautiful ancient look in EH and “twin of brothers.”
Now in “the other truth”, she looks snobby.
She looks also ok in Land of Wealth. After HOG, whenever I look at her, I feel there is something fake fake in her look.
I thought Michelle looked the best out of all the girls and she still does to me…
Did they really claim Myolie as a beauty in here? I watched the series, but don’t remember that part at all. I know Tavia was considered the beauty since the spoiled rich brat wanted her so badly.
haha..guess I am in the minority to think Tavia looks better than Michelle..
her prominent nose is not well accepted..I hope she has no further plan to further shapen it..
@ Chriselle: Yes, there is a scene Myolie is called Beauty.
Nope, the spoiled brat acted by Deno Cheung want Michelle :D.
@Fox,
No, Deno wanted Tavia because Tavia was the girl he saw outside the temple and he was awestruck by her beauty. He then asked around and he discovered and misunderstood that she was Miss Man. He only thought he wanted Michelle.
On a side note, I thought Tavia was prettier than Michelle at the time although I liked Michelle’s character more. Now, I don’t have a preference for either one’s looks.
But when he met Michelle, he dun have a problem with her beauty.
TY and Michelle this time reminds me of Fan Bing Bing and Ruby Lin in Huan Zhou Ge Ge I. I still think Michelle looks more siu jie and pleasant more than TY this time. TY’s look in my opinion, for an ancient series, is the best in TOB and Land of Wealth.
Haha, remind me of a convo with me and my cousin. I was watching King’s shadow this time with my cousin. When he saw ppl called TY “beauty”, he said: “Really? She looks original”. I told him: “She looks elegant.” He shook head: “Too original”. When Sharon appeared, he said: “Finally have a beauty.”
Maybe this is why I dun see TY with many fanboys. Most of her fans I see are girls.
I agree that Tavia looks better in ancient than in modern, which is probably why my favorite days of Tavia were during TOB. She gave me a fresh vibe back then while now, she’s just very plain. Lol, she has an upcoming ancient series, Three Kingdoms, lets see how she fares.
Fox, do you think Sharon is a beauty? I don’t think so although I’m so envious of those legs. Like Tavia, Sharon has a big face too.
I don’t think, my cousin thinks :P. I think Sharon looks fairly well and long legs. Her skin is a remark (very firm – not on screen, I saw her in real life and being wow-ed with her skin).
I’m afraid that I can share my feeling with you about the 3Kings one :P. I’ll watch selection parts only because (1) I don’t have any faith on LKH for a good series and (2) I will fast forward all TY’s scenes.
In my opinion, she looked good before 2007. After that, she looks fake. Her acting gets boring after that as well. Dun tell me of BTROC because I think she isn’t only OTT in this one but also failed at being evil.
I think Tavia looks beautiful in ‘Whatever it Takes’. But, her best look is during TOB. The make up up in TOB make all the girls more beautiful than they usually is. Not only Tavia, but, Nancy too.
I’ve never seen Eternal Happiness because I don’t like Michelle at that time (result from watching ‘God of Honour’ where her acting was really bad). But, I heard many comment that Michelle Looks better in male disguise than when she’s in girl costume.
Tavia in ancient series has a certain grace that makes her convincing as a Miss. Michelle don’t have. Michelle look is more tough and boyish kind. Not as refine.
Kidd,
IMO, I found Tavia looked the best in “Heart of Greed” and “Moonlight Resonance.” After the series, I noticed that her eye make-up got a lot heavier, which really suits her and brings out the shape of her lovely almond eyes more.
I think Tavia looks okay in ancient costumes. I like her in modern series more. Among the current TVB actresses, I think Fala is the most beautiful in ancient costume due to her elegant features.
Leila and Christine also look pretty in TOB. Especially Christine. She is charming.
@Fox,
Curious, did you start hating on Tavia after 2007 before of her fakeness? I remember you said there are many reasons for your hatred towards her, is her presumed fakeness one of those reasons?
And no worries, I wouldn’t even argue with you about Tavia’s performance in what I thought was a terrible series with a horrible script. 😀
Nope, I started to hate her from 2008, not 2007.
Her boring acting isn’t really a reason, just make me avoid to watch her series except it has ppl I like. Her personality and some of her fans are reasons.
@Jayne: For ancient elegant look, I give my vote to Gigi Lai and Sonija Kwok. I don’t say of acting, I’m saying of look.
“Among the current TVB actresses, I think Fala is the most beautiful in ancient costume due to her elegant features.”
Fala is one of the prettiest TVB fadans now who can look beautiful in ancient and modern series. Why did she lose to Leanne Li in MCI that year? I think Fala’s prettier.
Among TVB actresses I asked my brothers, they think Fala is prettiest and other girls that they think are prettiest including Katy Kung and Cilla Kung. They’re teenagers so i think they like people who look young.
They think Linda is sweet but Myolie and Tavia are average on looks. They don’t comment on Kate.
@ Vivien: Macy Chan is also pretty. Chloe looks good, too. And as for Katy Kung, all I can say is Patrick often has pretty girls.
I personally did not like Eternal Happiness very much since they completely screwed up the actual story… As a series it is was ok as a series, but was a horrible adaption…
Hehe, no adaption of this story is 100% follow it. BTW, TVB changed the storyline isn’t anything special. Even to Louis Cha =)). That’s why he banned him.
As for EH, I’m kinda glad that they dun follow the storyline. The characters in the actual story are quite dumb, especially Wong Fu Siu Wah. Get married with all 3 girls, without care for who is his real love? Puke blood because Mang Lai Guan thritenning him?
Well, I don’t need any adaption to be 100% accurate since no adaption can be 100% accurate because it would be too boring. However, with Eternal Happiness, they completely changed the whole story and wrote their own story. They even changed the name of Meng Li Jun’s older brother. I don’t mind changes as long as they aren’t ridiculous.
I don’t find anything wrong with him marrying all 3 girls since they are all nice, sweet and all love him as well. Plus, they all get along with Meng Li Jun as well. He loved them all, but Meng Li Jun was his main wife and if she didn’t mind then I don’t see a problem with it.
Huh? He even have never met Sun Ying Suet, how can he love her? Even to Mang Lai Guan, he rarely met her as herself. Sun Ying Suet agreed to get married with Wong Fu Siu Wah just because Mang Lai Guan wants that. They dun have love.
I think the ending love in EH is more reasonable.
BTW, do you read part 2 of the story about Mang Lai Guan? Lol, Wong Fu Siu Wah, his brother and the king finally become monks, LMAO~.
Wow, didn’t know Eternal Happiness was an adaption. What was the name of the original work?
@Fox,
LOL ~ It’s Wong Bo Siu Wah.
@HTS,
There is a problem with Wong Bo Siu Wah marrying all 3 years because it’s not Man Lai Kwan’s personality. It’s either her or none. Her dominating personality wouldn’t permit the family of 4 to survive under the same roof. 😀
LOL~ my bad. I meant 3 girls, not years*
Same with the Chinese name of EH.
The characters’ character are all changed in the series, Chriselle. They are not the way they are in the series.
@Fox,
IN the actual story, he never even met Meng Li Jun either, but yet they were both devoted to each other… Therefore, I don’t find anything wrong with him liking Su Yan Xue and Liu Yan Yu. If I remember correctly, he met Liu Yan Yu and make a promise to her too. I don’t know if you are talking about the novel or the series. But, from what I know(my mom has read the novel many times and constantly tells me about it), he did like them all and they all got along well. Therefore, I don’t see what the big deal is if he married them all. That’s just what I think though so you don’t have to agree. My mom read part 2 of the story and it talked more about their kids. I did not hear that they all became monks at all.. I need to ask my mom… It was more focused on their kids from what I remember and not really them. They all had kids and all of them got along well and they were happy for the most part.
@Chriselle,
Are you talking about the Meng Li Jun in the series of EH or the novel?? In the novel, MLJ is NOT like that at all… She is really nice and considerate and got along well with Liu Yan Yu and Su Yan Xue.
@Fox,
Did you read part 2?? Huang Fu Shao Hua did not have a brother. He has an older twin sister who is the queen. Her name is Huang Fu Zhang Hua. I don’t think any of them became monks if I remember correctly.
@HTS,
I never read the novel, so I was solely referring to EH, the series. What’s the purpose of an adaption if they’re going to change the premise of the plot/character?
@Chriselle,
Well you know that TVB is famous for taking a novel and the name of the characters and butchering the story right??? Therefore, EH is no exception. If you have not read the novel, then you will love TVB’s version of EH. However, if you have read the novel… Boy, you will not like TVB’s version of EH at all.. I was watching with my mom and brother and they complained throughout the whole story since they completely changed the story and characters and just wrote their own. The TVB version of Feng Shen Bang was horrible too… They also changed the story and characters to the point that it was no longer Feng Shen Bang.
I didn’t know EH was an adaption when I watched it many years ago, so whether it followed the novel faithfully did not bother me.
I never read the novels because I can’t read Chinese fully and I’m not as interested perhaps, so it never bothers me if TVB follows the novel. I think most people who read the novels doesn’t like TVB altering the storyline, which is understandable. As long as the adaption makes sense and is enjoyable, I’m fine with it.
Btw, I loved Gods of Honor when I first saw it, but somehow I can’t seem to watch it again nowadays. Too dramatic perhaps. And this is the first time I heard it’s different from the actual story.
I didn’t read the ‘Feng Shen Bang’ novel, but, I read the asiapac comic version. I found the FSB’s premise’s lame.
The premise of the story is just an emperor wrote a lewd poem about a goddess who got angry and ordered a pair of demons to bring down the emperor. Because of this order, innocent lives were sacrificed and many people got involved and turn into a big war. But, most ridiculous was at the end, the goddess just put all the blame in the demons saying she just asked them to bring down the emperor but not harm innocent lives. So, why the heck did the goddess not stop the demons earlier? How are the demon going to bring down the emperor without inciting him to do bad things so that people will revoked?
Another ridiculous ending. The cruel emperor also made the list of gods.
If you don’t know the actual story of EH, then you will enjoy the series just fine. However, if you do and like the actual story like my oldest brother and mom did, then will not like TVB’s version at all since they changed everything from the plot to the characters,etc…
Gods of Honour was really bad… It is very different from the actual story. I personally like the story of Feng Shen Bang a lot. My mom loves Zai Sheng Yuan and Feng Sheng Bang the most.
@Kidd,
Feng Shen Bang is actually a very good story, but I do agree with you that there were some things about it that I did not agree with. About why the king made it on the list of Gods, it was because the list was already predestined and whomever was supposed to be on there was going to be on there regardless. Even Shen Gong Bao(an evil god) was on there, however, he almost the last one.
It also appeared that it was because of the poem that bought the whole kingdom down, but I think it was much more than that. The Shang dynasty was supposed to end so it was going to end one way or another. I do agree that was wrong of Nu Wa to send the evil fox spirits down and then blame it all on them. However, the evil fox spirits did over do things themselves so I don’t think it was right to blame it all on Nu Wa either. Nu Wa was a really highly respected diety so those that messed with her would not get a happy ending..
Could just be makeup Myolie Wu Looks really different without makeup.
It couldn’t be just makeup. Not plastic surgery but I suspect she injected botox or whatever that can shape her chin and nose.
I wish she can get rid some of her eye makeup. I don’t remember the last time I saw her without thick eyeliners and thick lashes.
Myolie or TY?
If Myolie, then she isn’t accused of using Botox. If TY, TY is said by a botox center that being their frequent client :P.
it’s plain stupid using botox or anything similar because the effect will wear off and it will likely damage your nerve system.
@Fox
Myolie. Tavia’s is obvious now. I don’t think Myolie has surgery but I think she injected something too just not as extreme as Tavia. A few months ago some HK magazines did write about Myolie’s changing features.
Maybe. Myolie is also 33.
i think myolie is 31
I think Myolie is 32 this year. So is Tavia, Kate, Sharon, Bernice, Ron, Raymond.
Chinese includes 9 months in the tummy to their age. Then 2011-1979=32, + 9 months = 33.
even if you include the 9 months she will only be 32 ++ and not 33!
33. It’s mid 2011 now.
LOL, thought u lawyers were exact. Not a big deal but i need to correct you false statement “objection” 🙂
Lawyers are not accountant.
lol, don’t need to be a accountant. it’s a matter of common sense.
If common sense, you will see that Chinese count the same way I am, plus 1 to the real age.
I meant add 1, not plus :P.
will that hold in court? well just because most of the chinese count the way you do doesn’t make it correct.
Traditional way.
ok, what u should have said was according to the traditional way of counting myolie is 33 years old.
Is it that big deal?
depends how you look at it for myolie it might be a big deal hehe.
and a false statement needs to be corrected since it’s fact and not speculation like we make all the time here.
It isn’t false at all.
And as for Myolie, I like her a lot.
lol, see you in court
Alright, see you there.
Totally agree about botox since botox does not last long and does damage your nervous system. It also causes your face to be tense and makes your face look unnatural as well. Also, if Tavia is afraid of pain, then why get all of these painful injections?? Getting a needle poked in your face is something very painful…
Make up can only do so much… It cannot change your chin shape and make your nose from a flat to a high nose.
are these derma fillers permanent?
Lol, and dun forget the pimples :P. Have enough signs for the reporters, if they are interested in.
Of course they aren’t…
She shouldn’t have done anything to the nose. After the touch-up she has a very hard look and becomes her nose stand out very prominently than other facial features. i like her in the Yummy Yummy.
What will happen if she stopped taking the treatments to her nose? Will the nose form into a weird shape?
i think her nose will be loose because of the streched skin. just think of a baloon that have been strechted to the extreme but ofcourse in her case it’s not that extreme however excessive use of it i predict will totally damage her nerves and her nose.
scary thought don’t want to think aboout it as i like tavia but she is plain stupid for using these stuff.
I agree with exiodus that thse injections will eventually damage her nose and skin. Just like with botox, it will damage your nervous system. Her nose may get all wrinkled up, who knows?? I think these injections are like an addiction. Once you do it and are hooked on it, you just have to keep on doing them…
It is not just Tavia that is doing this… I bet many celebs are but they are not caught red handed yet. But I don’t see what the big deal is.
Funnily enough a cosmetic doctor offered the same injections to me once. It’s not long lasting as the above article says. It’s a quick and easy way to see what you nose would look like if you did decide to go for proper rhinoplasty.
Although seems stupid for Tavia and Myolie to use the same method as it’s noticeable and it’s something they will continuously have to do to maintain the shape. Unless they will eventually go for surgery for a more permanent look…..
They going to this method might be to avoid taking long absence from work and getting bandages on their face. Surgeries need time to heal.
Well even plastic surgery is not a permanent life time look since it is not natural, it will wear out with time as well. I have seen it on people where it wore out and boy, they looked worse than how they looked before the surgery. These injections require more regular maintanence than plastic surgery though.
nothing lasts forever not even the real thing. the question is if tavia would be less successful without these injections or not.
I know that, but when it is natural it still better and trust me… I have seen people that age naturally versus people with plastic surgery..WOW, big big difference…
ofcourse, im anti plastic hehe
Are you anti plastic Exoidus?? I am for the most part, but it depends on the case… One of my mom’s friends had a nose like a cow(literally) so she got some of it cut off and she looks a lot better now. Those kinds of cases when a person looks really bad, then I can understand why would want to get something minor done to boost their confidence a bit.
it depends. for instance in a accident situation or birth deficiency ofcourse it’s ok. in other cases it depends on how seriousness of the case.
in most cases plastic are not the last option but a choice. but in the end it’s their life and if they want to do it then please go ahead.
Yea, it just depends on the case. Like with Hu Ge, he had to have it due to a very serious car accident that he was in…
I used to call her the zombie girl, as in mindless, same looks, like hypnotized. Like I called Sonija the automaton. She’s no longer zombie girl, but still dead boring. And who says they didn’t actually did rhinoplasty procedure? They can’t have needles holes all the time. I assume the injection is by needles?
kate and shirley are also mindless zombies.
@Funn,
Why zombies and automation?
Looks like she got a rhinoplasty. Not sure how one injection can make a person’s nose grow that dramatically. Wish celebrity just admit the truth and say they went under the knife. Facial my foot, fans aren’t that stupid to think most of the celebrity are natural born beauties.
isn’t the injection some form of bacteria that will make your tissue swollen hence give the apperence of a bigger nose?
it can’t be good for your tissue to be attacted be these bacterias constantly.
What kind of cosmetic procedure is good for you??? I still question these injections since I have never heard of them before. I think she just got a rhinoplasty but sadly refuses to admit it. Maybe these injections are too expensive for the average person??
What is this injection? Many ppl will want it, lol. She should share the name of the doctor and the kind of injection for ppl.
Just think that, maybe she want the new nose will bring her a bit luck, such as a bf, ie. Lai Lok Yi?
I thought bigger noses are considered more lucky??
but does that apply to fake noses as well? i thought maybe it will only be true for true big noses? hehe
I think it only applies to real ones only…
Maybe she needs that?
isnt it illegal to expose client info? damn have some decency people!
I am not sure if it is illegal but it is probably just not decent to do so. Or the doctor is trying to advertise that if he can make movie stars look better, then more people will come to him…
LOL, bad PR which celeb will go to him now only to get exposed the next day 🙂
Just same to the makeup guy last time.
I’m sure it is illegal in HK and many other places running the common law system since patient-doctor privacy has been one of the oldest corollaries of legal duties. I’m not sure why he seems so carefree about it. Perhaps his betting on the fact Tavia won’t sue him cause that would most likely implicate her lol
Even if there’s no breach of a duty to a patient, its likely Tavia could sue the doc or Sudden Weekly for defamation, unless of course it was true… then there may be problems.
You weckon Raymond Lam and Tavia used the same doctor?
The doctor only mentioned TY, so you can only be sure that she is his client.
is it very embarassing just to admit tt one has gone udner the knife? Would popularity n ratings drop jst bcoz one admits to it? strange strange world
Unless the media and viewers compare a celebrity’s old look and new look together and throw it in front of the person, I don’t understand what there is to be embarrassed about. They look prettier now and they had the courage to go under the knife and are pleased with the results.
Will be. Some ppl are bashed harsher when they admitted that they had plastic surgeries.
This world value fake natural beauties.
Yea, I know… If they were soo ashamed of being having plastic surgery, then why have it and then deny that they did?? Strange world we live in…
They know that some admirers who don’t like unnatural beauties will leave them so they wanted to maintain that ‘natural beauty’ status but some things are just TOO DARN OBVIOUS such as that nose.
Good point Vivien, but if those admirers find out the truth, then it wouldn’t it be worse since it would show that they lied…
They know some admirers will find excuses for them, hehe.
Can’t blame her. Look at this forum already. People are already bashing her even though its not 100% confirmed yet.
Can’t blame audience.
Although everything isn’t confirmed 100% but you sometimes still join the bash yourself. If you are truly fair, you will give others chances to be doubted like when negative things happens to your fave.
@Fox: Yeh well ditto that. Who said I was fair? I’m as biased as you are. You bash whoever you don’t like regardless of what situation its in and you don’t seem to accept what others have to say. Ignorant.
As long as you are accepting you are biased, I’m good :P. Well, we are walking in the same shoes, right? I’m just reminding about this fact :P.
Nah, I’m quite accept wat others have to say if I find it’s similar to my opinions.
Be polite in a debate.
P/S: I can understand your feeling. TY isn’t an angel, girl. Thinking of her as one will make you hurt more than you expected. Accept her as a human and protect her as one.
However, TY is lucky to have a fan like you.
“Nah, I’m quite accept wat others have to say if I find it’s similar to my opinions”
That’s not accepting others’ opinion. That’s just accepting your own opinion and welcoming more supporting for it.
LOL~ this made my night. 🙂
@Kidd: Still can be considered as accept others’ opinion.
Errm, hate to be a bubble buster but that’s still not accepting of other people’s opinion, Fox. To be truly accepting, you would have to accept opinions that are different or even against yours within reason of course and not just accept those that are similar to yours like Kidd said. By accepting other opinions doesn’t mean you belittle your own or change your thinking to match their, it’s just that you believe others have a right to have their own thinking even if it is different from yours and not ignore or shut them out for that.
@buti4,
Of course everyone is bias, BUT not everyone is blind. Even if I were a big fan of Tavia, I would still say that she did have something done to her nose and yet she lied about it. If you are a true fan, then you would know the good and bad of your idol and only defend them when necessary, not blindly even when they are wrong. Just because you like or are a fan of anyone does NOT mean that you cannot criticize them.. If you don’t, then I don’t believe you are a true fan but a blind one.
OMG, who is she kidding? now i think she done something to her lip too.
in fact, i’ve noticed her nose in yes Sir, Sorry Sir but what the heck? So what? whtr she is ugly or she is pretty, i m here in front of the tv seeking for entertainment. Whtr she has gone under the surgeon’s knife or even that of a butcher, I RELI DONT CARE!
The doctor is lying to the roof, there are a list of side effects with the Hyaluronic Acid injection. Just google it for yourself. The reason he kept his mouth shut because he doesn’t want to scare off customers, it’s so evil that people will do anything for money. Unfortunately, there are just too many gullible and naive people who will try to look perfect even if only for a short time. Plastic surgery or any injections do not last a lifetime. Most of these people will look like Zombies as they get older. Even breast implants increased cancer risk. Only if people would use their common sense and think of the consequences, there would not be so many stupid people in this world.
What surgeries or injections that Dodo Cheng took before? She’s looks like a zombie now if we get rid of her inches of makeup. Some people posted links to her makeupless pic before.
@TNT2,
Totally agree with you and I feel that it is so sad that the doctor can lie to his teeth about that.. The things that some people do just for money. Aren’t they afraid of karma?? I think if people just used their common sense then they would know that there are definately side effects to any type of chemical injection. I think many people have not seen the picture of Dodo Cheng… Goodness.. She is a good example of plastic surgery fading over time. Her picture really scared me and others here. Sadly, many people just care too much about their looks that their common sense and reasoning all get blinded.
Dodo had so many plastic procedures that it is hard to keep track of. As we have all seen, she completely messed up her face that it looked like a pile of melted plastic.
I guess another way for us to know if people had plastic surgery for sure is to wait until they get older. If they start to look like a zombie, then we know for sure… But then again, who said that we had to wait that long when it is so obvious now???
Here is a link of Victoria Principal, an American actress before and after plastic surgery. OMG, she looks like a plastic doll, just like DoDo cheng nowadays. Hopefully, Tavia’s nose will not fall off like what happened to Michael Jackson in the past. I used to watch Tavia’s TVB series but no more since I found she is the typical attention seeker who is willing to gamble her image, i mean really HER IMAGE has changed tremendously. I am pretty sure she will eventually look like Michael Jackson and Victoria Principal. Man, that will be one scare woman in the very near future.
Oops, forgot to post the before and after plastic surgery of victoria principal.
http://inyourface.ocregister.com/2008/06/09/victoria-principal-said-she-wouldnt-reveal-plastic-surgery-but-those-photos/
Tavia is a good actress but she’s soooo dull the only thing exciting is her nose
I never understood why celebrities have to DENY having plastic surgery. What is so ashamed about having a face lift or whatever. If they can afford it and wants to look better, then there is no harm in it. Myself I wouldn’t want to mess about with my face even if I had millions unless I was involved in a car accident or something. To me, its best to be natural and I also can’t stand pain. These people who have been under the knife must suffer pain at some stage. Well, rather them than me.
Joan Collins in her 70s also denies having plastic surgery. Ha! That is a joke. I agree that she is a good actress and was ok to look at. Not beautiful like Fala Chen but she wasn’t plain by any means. Really she should have left things as they were. Still, its her money and she can do whatever she wants!!!
Agree with you and it’s my thoughts exactly. Why have plastic surgery or any form of it if you are so ashamed of it and don’t want to admit it. I am also a chicken and can’t stand pain. It is always best to be natural unless you really need plastic surgery for specific reasons.
I don’t agree that Fala is beautiful. She looks ok with make up, but without it… goodnes…
Tavia now is being ridiculed that her nose keep growing like pinnochio whenever she keep denying the obvious nose jobs. She should stop while it’s not too late.
Ironic that Pinnochio’s nose will be longer when he lies and her nose is longer…
There was an article ages ago saying Fala Chen, Kate Tsui and Elaine Yiu also had plastic surgery. Obviously they all denied it too.
Well no one is aiming at Tavia only. We all know that many celebs have all had some form of plastic surgery and other injections of some sort, but most of them don’t want to admit it.
Ah, another Tavia nose article. Haven’t had one of those in a few months.
Anyway, I would really like it if she really hadn’t done plastic surgery or whatever injection that is called but it’s actually hard to say. I mean sometimes her nose looks different, sometimes it doesn’t. And at times the angle and focus of the photos are different so that cannot be used a valid reference. But admittedly, if she did do anything to change her nose, she’s not going to admit it. No sane HK celebrity will, lest their value would drop, especially for Tavia since she is on the rise now. Besides, they all want people to think they are naturally beautiful, which they already are but just not satisfied with.
Honestly, I preferred her look in EH (although I hated EH and Michelle’s character), TOB, VF and WIT. I think she looked absolutely stunning in those and made me take notice of her. Her naive and fresh look made her stand out from the crowd then but now, she’s starting to look like all the others. Same style facial features. Haih. And she is using way too much make up as well. MR was the last time I think I saw her with the right amount of make up. Why does TVB like to smother their rising stars in ridiculous amounts of make up? Same thing happened to Myolie.
I don’t mind if she really went plastic but I’d like for her to admit it if she did. Although I prefer natural beauty but plastic surgery isn’t a crime and people will find out eventually anyway.
Btw, I don’t think she’s boring. She has been given pretty boring roles lately with tons of crying due to MR but seriously, enough crying! I know she cry good but I’d like to see her not cry in a series for once. Getting off point here, just because her roles are boring, doesn’t mean she is. Not all TVB actors and actresses dare willing to anger the management by saying things and acting too out there. It would be nice to say her mind but sometimes, some things are better left unsaid. It seems cowardly but that’s life.
Aiya, who cares if she hv surgery or not. As long as the outcome is good!
Even if the outcome is good, it will not last a lifetime. Also, it is not a good idea for her to keep on denying it.
she probably got veneers too or teeth implants.
Her nose is the most distracting thing when showing up-close of her in her series. I always suspect she did something to her nose as it’s so unnatural, and really annoying to watch. What a fat liar for denying it. I rather respect those who admit that they had something done than lie!
I think the nose is one of the features that stands out the most so there is no hiding or denying when something has been done to it.
Pinnochio has sure been lieing a lot…
How ironic that Tavia is lying about her plastic surgery and her nose seems to be getting longer like Pinnochio…
if so, then she’s not the only one. Myolie Wu’s face and nose also looks different. sharper chin and higher nose. do a before and after and there is more changes than Tavia’s look.
since i’ve been visiting this site, contrary to many other forums, this place and ppl not very Tavia-friendly, rather its very pro-Myolie.
the “before” pictures all had her face tilted upward in jovial expression. i did the same facial expression and saw that my nose crinkled in. i have seen one of her old out interview where she was asked which part of her she liked best and it was her nose. i dont think she did anything to it. it looks the same. it looks pointier because she lost weight and was sick often. my 2 cents but ppl will make up what they want to.
It does not looking pointier. It looks bigger. Her nose tip looks bigger when she lost weight? Logical or not?
Since she likes her nose the best, it’s quite logic for her to do something tat make she thinks it’ll be nicer.
“since i’ve been visiting this site, contrary to many other forums, this place and ppl not very Tavia-friendly, rather its very pro-Myolie.”
I see. Then, you must not be here for very long if you think this forum is pro-Myolie. Myolie get her own share of criticism too at one time. It’s only after Rippling Blossom and Ghetto Justice that she gain back more good comments.
if so, then she’s not the only one. Myolie Wu’s face and nose also looks different. sharper chin and higher nose. do a before and after and there is more changes than Tavia’s look.
We all know Tavia is not the only one who did something to her face. Vivien also said above that there’s report of Myolie’s face change as well and Funn mention Kenix. So, what’s your point?
wtf????!!!! Why does this have to be between Myolie and Tavia? do you expect every forum should worship Tavia or what? is she god? and Myolie a satan that no one should be her fan? anyway, myolie doesn’t need to be part of it. this applies to any artists!
Tavia at least looks like herself, she has always been pretty. if a real in depth expose was done on all the female faces at TVB that has had procedures, dont be surprised if lip injections, cheek implants, chin implants, brow lifts, came up. those other fa dans faces changed more than hers.
Dragging in other actresses and say ‘hei, they did more things’ won’t erase the fact/suspicious that Tavia did something to her nose. 😛
@Kidd,
LOL~ Your meticulous answers never fail to impress me. 😀
I still don’t know what you guys are on about. Yes I feel this site is full of anti-tavia fans…. everytime her name comes up, ppl say she’s boring, or that she’s unfriendly, and that’s she’s all fake. because she’s not admitting her nose is fake, people can’t stand to watch her because she doesn’t have the courage to come out and admit it and therefore brand her as a LIAR.
Dude! She is not the ONLY TVB actress rumored to have plastic surgery. Charmaine, Fala, Myolie, Elaine Yiu, Kate Tsui all had their fair share too. Did they come out and admit it? Before you call Tavia a LIAR, every other actress including ur fave is also a liar then. Dragging other actresses in won’t erase suspicions (not facts btw) that Tavia did something to her nose or not, but its the way most ppl here are slamming her like she killed someone.
Then to the unfriendly bit. Someone here said that she wasn’t a friendly person wth? Tavia is WELL-KNOWN to have good work-ethics and she is a sociable person. No reports have said anything bad about her. Someone (a tavia-hater) decides to come out and say’s “Oh I heard she’s very unfriendly towards strangers and on the otherhand XXX is friendly towards strangers therefore she’s just putting on a show.” etc etc…. really… it has come to the point that people here need to make up stories to put down Tavia so they can make other female actresses look good.
Lastly, I go to many forums and sites like this, but JAYNESTARS seems to have a lot of unreasonable and unfriendly people who pick on every little thing. Eg. I made a few posts the last few days, but with every single little post I make, there comes with an aggressive and arrogant post after. Just because I wrote something that you didn’t particularly agree on, there’s no need to comment like what I said was wrong. There is no right or wrong. It’s just an opinion. “Yeh I don’t think her acting is boring.” … yet i have to receive comments that go on and on and explain why my comment is wrong?!??! What the hell is this site.
People are so unfriendly. I come to this site to read articles. But it seems to me, JAYNESTARS.COM is a very hostile environment and do not seem to support different opinions with rude people commenting like this… what’s the point? These articles are in turn credited on other sites so i can easily read it elsewhere and comment there. People in other forums are much nicer and at least they don’t personally attack other members coz of their diff opinions.
What is your point?
When the bashes come to other artists, you join happily. When the bashes come to TY, you can’t accept and say such thing? Uh huh, what’s wrong with you? So you shouldn’t bash anyone :P. However, I find you are happily joining the bash as long as it isn’t for TY. Well, to say that, when you join a bash, you must know that one day TY will have some ugly truths being revealed. Or you think TY is the person that can’t be bashed or Anyone bash TY is bad person. What logic is that?
Yes, very obvious and I admitted long long ago that I’m a TY hater. So what?
And I want to mind you that you are the one who attack other members who don’t like TY in this site, not anyone else. So I blv that the one who must be nicer is you.
Nobody ban you to protect TY, but whining like this, sorry to say, kinda childish.
@buti4: why do u take everything so personal?
This is an open discussion forum so if u make any statement, of course ppl are going to respond. Especially if bring up other artists’ names to help defend your idol, u are asking for debate.
But I think most ppl here mind their manners. U may think they are picking on u but it’s just normal discussion. Please relax.
Now let’s continue.
What surgery did charmaine have done? She got a scar on her chin while filming “perish in the name of love” many yrs ago and she didn’t even bother to get that fixed.
Did we call her a liar? Is calling her boring that terrible? Here a lot of anti tavia? Is she so previous she can’t be criticised? Ok, let’t not talk looks, talk temperaments, talk attitude. Talk acting instead. She is a competent actress but I won’t rush to rent a series if she is the headliner. She can’t stand alone. And yes, she is boring. Good actress doesn’t make her interesting. Just makes her competent.
The only “surgery” Charmaine had was probably cutting her hair and losing too much weight. What surgery, pray tell did she have?
“People are so unfriendly. I come to this site to read articles. But it seems to me, JAYNESTARS.COM is a very hostile environment and do not seem to support different opinions with rude people commenting like this… what’s the point?”
I actually thought it is very balanced here. But your argument is if no one agrees with you, then those people are rude, and yet we can’t disagree with you? And we have to agree with you?
many other forums are dominated by tavia’s fans that’s why.
LOL, as a tavia fan you should be happy that people care to talk about her even on the premise of bad news. All PR is good PR.
im a fan of her as well, however i find it annoying that she is denying fixing her nose. if she could tell the truth or at the very least not lie about it.
i think it’s stupid for her to use these injections because of all the side effects so i hope she will stop before it’s too late.
lastly we are all trying to express our opinions and obviously we are all biased. just think about it wouldn’t it be boring if every single person had the same opinion on every issue?

Because someone else’s opinion differ from yours, doesn’t make it aggressive and arrogant. Don’t feel threatened. 🙂
The purpose of a discussion forum is discussion. I’ve visited many forums in the past, and in some, everyone seems to be doing their own thing and there are hardly any ‘real’ discussions.
” But it seems to me, JAYNESTARS.COM is a very hostile environment and do not seem to support different opinions with rude people commenting like this”
It seems like you’re the one who can’t accept TY haters and had to write this post.
“People in other forums are much nicer and at least they don’t personally attack other members coz of their diff opinions.”
I didn’t exactly follow all the comments about TY haters and fans, etc., but there were personal attacking? Where? o.O
Buti4,

JayneStars does have a lot of frequent commentators that enjoy a detailed exchange. We’re not an unfriendly site, but sometimes the discussion gets passionate and thus may be carried away. It also depends on what aspect of the experience you choose to focus on. Undoubtedly there may be instances where you will come across non-fans and due to the extreme differences in opinion, it will be difficult to come to a middle ground. At the same time, sometimes we launch into deeper philosophical discussions about relationships and life, which are inspirational and anything but hostile.
Other forum sites have moderators that are quick to delete “flame wars” or anything that may come across as inflammatory. JayneStars practices self-censorship and the majority of readers enjoy this freedom in expressing their opinions. I don’t think anyone was out to attack anyone personally, but sometimes the exchange may come across as more confrontational. It’s about the issues and not an attack against any particular artist or commentator.
Our site covers a wide range of celebrities and reports negative as well as positive news about artists. Although the news do tend to stray towards more controversial topics rather than neutral artist promotional events. Due to the controversial topics, sometimes commentators will react to the news more emotionally than others. In the end, this is an entertainment news site and the range in topics we cover will be a mixed bag of positive and negative news.

“The purpose of a discussion forum is discussion. I’ve visited many forums in the past, and in some, everyone seems to be doing their own thing and there are hardly any ‘real’ discussions.”
Yeap, there is a forum I know that is like that. No one seem to read your comments. Everyone just seem to post his/her comment and leave. Posting there is like talking to this air. So, I seldom go there.
@Jayne: “Other forum sites have moderators that are quick to delete “flame wars” or anything that may come across as inflammatory.” – That’s what I quite hate in some forums. No debate is allowed. Anything will be deleted and deleted. Make the forum super boring.
I enjoy JayneStars like now. A place for ppl to give out opinions. However, somebody can’t accept the fact that TY isn’t a god.
Sorry, but you don’t need to blow up like this… First of all, like I and many others have said, we are NOT aiming at Tavia only. It is a proven fact that she and others have had some form of plastic surgery or whatever. What is the big deal about that???
I think you are just a blind fan that wants to protect her one way or another. IF you are a true fan, you need to know her good and bad not just blinding support and protect her even when it is not necessary to do so.
Everyone has their opinions and NOT everyone will like Tavia. Regardless of how popular anyone is, they will NOT be liked by everyone and you need to realize that and be more open minded. If you really don’t like it here at Jaynestars, you don’t need to come here since everyone here is free to come and go as they please. Who told you to come here and whine about anyone who criticizes Tavia. She is not perfect and has flaws just like anyone that you need to accept if you are a true fan instead of a blind one.
support @fox.
Thought you love TY? Lol.
yes @fox, i love tavia too, and i am support you because your has right word.
Seem that you are more of my fan than hers, lol.
yes@fox your right.
i am fan of tavia and ray, but i wont bother about who hater of my artist, i wants be my self,and i want support who has good personality and i wont comment about personal life.
