Joey Yung with Zhang Yimou Beckham smiles at Joey Yung at the Olympics closing ceremony The Beijing Olympics 2008 Closing ceremony was held yesterday evening. Joey Yung and Nicholas Tse had the opportunity to perform again at the closing ceremony. Both of them went to Beijing for 5 days. Although they only appeared for 6 minutes on screen they felt it was worth every minute since they performed for 40 million people. Joey took the opportunity to take pictures with Zhang Yimou and Joey also saw superstar soccer player David Beckham face to face while the cars they were parading in passed each other. The Olympics closing ceremony was held at the Bird's nest. Some of the performers had already performed for the Olympics opening show such as Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Joey Yung, Nicholas Tse, Karen Mok, Emil Chow. Although their live performance for the Opening ceremony was not broadcasted across the globe, they were re-invited to perform in the Closing ceremony. This time, they were arranged to perform straight after London's special performance and it was successfully shown worldwide. Joey happily states "I am very happy, I think the Beijing Olympics has been very successful. I am very happy that China have received the most gold medals." (Were you nervous?) "It was okay, I have the experience from the Opening ceremony so this time I wasn't that nervous. When I was parading in the car I saw David Beckham in the car next to me. I instantly waved at him, he not only waved back but smiled at me. But unfortunately I didn't get the chance to take photos with him. " But during rehearsals, Joey took the opportunity to take pictures with Zhang Yimou. Therefore she felt the whole trip was perfect. Kelly Chen is overly happy Also Kelly Chen, Korean singer Rain, Wang Leehom and mainland singers had the opportunity to sing "Beijing, Beijing, I Love Beijing" on stage together after the Olympic flame had been extinguished. Kelly who wore a pink Tubetop had the chance to dance beside Rain. She says "I was very nervous, There were 40 million people worldwide watching us. It's the first time I have experienced so many people watching me perform and I felt honoured." Kelly also took pictures with Zhang Yimou while she was rehearsing and said he was very nice man.

it was quite messy... n i only saw most of the stars like for a few seconds... and honestly i didnt even see nicholas tse... what i was thinking to myself during the show was...WTH is RAIN DOING THERE? lol...so outta place... n btw... kelly chen's outfit looked rather cheap... like a clubbing outfit... unlike the other girls who wore much more nice outfits...
lol, wow , the closing ceremony was better than the first one, lol did Beckham give Joey a :naughty: smile?
The Concert at the end sucked cause it was so messy due to the bad camera angles ( saw the nbc version which has no focus) and rain was there wtf i didn't even know why was he there lol. and the song was so fobby maybe it was just to appeal to international audiences.
Im just after the fireworks~~ Cant see those artistes as it was just like looking at thousand of ants from the way the video was taken~~!!
hahah i like the opening ceremony way more than the closing.....like what everyone said....wtf is rain doing on stage....they could have found someone else that's way better and it was pretty messy indeed
should of known, rain singing mando songs all of a sudden, before beijing olympics he even made an mv, in china i think who was that girl in yellow singing with rain, leeom, kelly she was pretty =D
lol, so that really was rain?!? I was like wtf...why is he there when i saw him...wow...so that was really kelly, saw her but not a close up, so i was like is that kelly on there...and i think opening was more better and exciting than the closing ceremony...
too much basically he smile to who ever call and waved to him. this no need to tell reported if all the singer attend the ceremony also say this it will be a never ending story
I think the closing ceremony was pitched more to chinese audiences more, it turned more like a segment from EYT with all those singing, the opeing ceremony was way better
The closing ceremony was trash. Rain appearing was ridiculous. He's Korean; not Chinese .. hello ... he should be singing, I love Korea, I love Korea .. Not I love Beijing, I love Beijing .. can't get any worst ... sigh ... good start but end at such a horrible note. My guess is that the creative director ran out of ideas for the closing or low on "$$$" after the spectacular beginning.
well usually the opening ceremony is way better than the closing ceremony. also ppl write about anything these days..... like cmon david beckham smiles at her? not really anything special. lol
Man I miss the closing ceramony i gotto see this and what the big fuss about beckham simling at joey this is not news
