Saturday April 5, 2008 Hong Kong EEG has officially filed a lawsuit against rising star Isabella Leong Lok Si, 19-year old Isabella Leong signed a 20-year long contract with EEG when she was only 12. Her amorous relationship with 42-year old Richard Li however (HK tycoon Li Ka Shing's son) must certainly have blossomed in recent months to such an extent that he has allegedly agreed to bail her out of this contract and send her to the States to study in some prestigious university — which by the way, will be handpicked by Michelle Yeoh, the matchmaker who had introduced the two. Isabella Leong was seen dining with Michelle Yeoh and her fiance Jean Todt and had apparently arrived in the States in Richard Li's private jet. EEG's suit contained 3 main points - 1) Isabella is not allowed to sign any other contract with any other company (but she supposedly has plans to join forces + synergies with Michelle Yeoh in her film company or something) 2) Isabella MUST fulfill all conditions in her contract 3) her departure will cause the company to incur losses hence she MUST make reparations. It is speculated that EEG must not let Isabella Leong off lightly as it may set a dangerous precedent for other artistes under their label. Isabella Leong is also reported to be studying English in New York currently and will have to return to Hong Kong in the near future to attend court-hearings for the case. In order to gain her freedom, she will have to face the unwelcome prospect of having to reveal details of the working relationship between her and EEG for the past 8 years. credits: gossipblog.
lol , No Freedom, but she joined when she was 12 ........ i 'wonder' what tactics ' she used to get in' lol 簽合同慘過簽賣身契
who signs a 20 year contract, that is long. but ye hard to get out of contracts, but best way is to release rubbish songs and stuff and then they will let u go cos u will no longer be gaining them money but they still have to pay u as in the contract. though i wonder whether she could get out of this contract as she was only 12 at the time and that meant that she may not have fully understood what she was signing herself into. i believe george michael tried to get out of his contract with sony several years ago.
Not really sure y she's that famous, or that good, have heard any of her stuff. But eeg could get alot from her from the lawsuit so she better watch out!
well there is the bright side that if u completely flop they still have to pay u i guess or if there was a sex scandal then u would still earn money unless, they let u go. maybe if she gets into a sex scandal maybe that will help her to get out of the contact. lol.
