On New Year’s Eve, Kevin Cheng (鄭嘉穎) was spotted kissing a long-haired woman in a Hong Kong nightclub. Single for four years, Kevin admitted that he “wanted to look for a companion and did not want to feel lonely”. Since Kevin did not have a habit in frequenting nightclubs, he was initially cautious in avoiding others’ recognition. He walked away whenever he spotted others taking out their cell phones, hoping to prevent them from snapping photos. Although popular among the ladies at the nightclub, he acted reservedly until he downed a few glasses of champagne. A long-haired woman in a tight dress eventually caught Kevin’s attention. Chatting for ten minutes, the pair hugged. Kevin put his arm against the wall, effectively trapping the woman from any escape. Kevin kissed the woman three times and the woman was heard laughing flirtatiously. Soon after, the pair disappeared into the crowd. Kevin Admits Feeling Lonely Asked about making out with the woman in the nightclub, Kevin responded, “Thanks to everyone’s concern over my love life. I’m no longer young! I hope to find a companion and don’t want to be lonely.” He added, “A celebrity is also a normal person. I have emotions and feelings too; I hope everyone gives me more personal space.” When prompted as to whether the woman at the nightclub is his girlfriend, Kevin said, “If there is good news, I will definitely announce it.” Nancy Sit Believes Kevin Cheng and Charmaine Sheh are a Couple While filming Forensic Heroes 2 <法證先鋒II> in 2008, sparks flew between Kevin and Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼). The pair reportedly dated, but broke up shortly due to personality differences. They remained friends and stayed in touch with each other. Over the past two years, reconciliation rumors between Kevin and Charmaine frequently cropped up, but both claimed they are still single each time. Working with Kevin and Charmaine together in the past, Nancy Sit (薛家燕) was surprised to learn that Kevin had casually kissed a woman in a nightclub. Nancy replied, “[Kevin and Charmaine] have love and a brightness in each other’s eyes. I believe they are a couple. Perhaps they individually have love interests and I was mistaken. Haha, or maybe Kevin drank too much alcohol, otherwise he would not have behaved so openly. If he finds true love, I give him my blessings.” Kenneth Ma Unaware of Kevin Cheng’s Love Life Kevin’s good friend, Kenneth Ma (馬國明), was asked to comment on Kevin’s behavior at the nightclub. Kenneth said, “I don’t know what happened. When we go out together as a group, he has never brought a female companion along! If they are in the midst of getting to know each other, I hope everyone gives him space. He is older than me, so it’s normal to date!” Asked about his own requirements when looking for a girlfriend, Kenneth said he prefers outgoing and independent women.
