TVB's royalty fee conflict with HKRIA isn't resolved and more and more singers are victimized. Earlier, singers under HKRIA missed TVB's "Jade Solid Gold Seasonal Rounds" and "TVB8 Golden Song Chart Awards Ceremony." Then, Fiona Sit and Jason Chan were suddenly out from a performance for Po Leung Kuk. Lately, Prudence Liew, who belongs to Universal, is notified that she doesn't have to come to film "The Voice" anymore (two episodes on January 3, and finale on January 23). Louis Cheung will host on his own on January 3 and Gary Chaw will co-host with him on the finale. It's known that TVB leveled up its action: besides variety shows involve in singing, don't invite singers to film series until additional notification. Said Prudence is just hosting, not singing at all, the producer of the show said, "This is a decision made by the company. Staffs from her record company will come into TVB with her. Under this circumstance, we shouldn't work together as much as possible." [Singtao]
Even though Prudence have improved a lot as a MC, most people don't mind seeing her go. But this whole royalty issue is getting crazy, TVB pretty much own HK TV media, so they we just have to see who'll give in first or comes up with a compromise.
woah, they need to hurry up an sort out their problems like... but i dont mind seeign prudence out...lol
