"Unconfirmed rumors" say actor Nicholas Tse allegedly took a swing at actor Edison Chen during a recent encounter among Chen, Tse and Tse's wife, actress Cecilia Cheung, at Hong Kong's Four Seasons Hotel, Shanghaiist.com reports.

Cheung allegedly got into a frenzy as security guards rushed to Chen's rescue, the website cites the unverified rumors as saying.Proof that media must be careful about what they print is the fact that Tse's agent is considering suing the Hong Kong-based Apple Daily for a "false" May 30 report that Tse is seeking separation from Cheung for making amends with Chen, QQ.com reports.

Cheung and Chen became bitter foes after sex photos of Chen and several starlets, including Cheung, flooded the Internet three years ago. But the two appeared chummy when they - by chance or by scheming, as some speculate - recently ended up sharing the first-class cabin of the same flight, media report.

"I (Nicholas Tse) never sent letters asking for a legal separation from Cheung," Tse's agent, Emperor Entertainment Group's Mani Fok, posted on a micro blog.

"And I reserve the right to initiate legal proceedings against Apple Daily for starting the rumor."

The couple's close friend, Hong Kong TV hostess Eileen Cha, confirmed the pair faces a relationship crisis, but says they haven't split.

TV host and actress Dee Hsu says she enjoys meeting her husband in the buff when he comes home in hopes of arousing him sufficiently to impregnate her with a boy, QQ.com reports.

When not clad in her full birthday suit, she often loses the bra but keeps the shirt, which she says also hits her hubby's "on" switch.

But there's a catch, she says.

"Because my father-in-law lives with us, my husband says I should remember to wear a bra," Hsu says.

"But when I enter my private room, I always strip down to excite my husband in hopes of getting pregnant."

Hsu reportedly once devoured a gecko and then another larger lizard species to make her "strong" enough to bear male offspring.

Kelly Lin has confirmed suspicions that she is far ahead of Hsu's game and has been with child since before her wedding. But unlike Hsu, Lin's husband and mother-in-law are crossing their fingers for a girl, Chinabuzz.net reports.

Lin denies accusations that her March 22 march down the aisle was a shotgun wedding.

"We only knew (about the pregnancy) after the wedding," she says. "My husband is happy and touched."

She says she plans to have another child after her firstborn arrives in October.

"But I don't want to gain too much weight," Lin says.

Sister Phoenix - the 25-year-old who became an Internet sensation after passing out pamphlets of lofty demands for a boyfriend despite her, um, lack of conventional beauty - has been inquiring about 76-year-old vitriolic author Li Ao's romantic availability.

She has made her interest clear on her micro blog.

"Who is Li Ao? What does he do? How old is he? Is he handsome? Has he married? Is he wealthy?" she asks of the Taiwan writer, whose main claim to fame is badmouthing celebrities.

Netizens immediately responded with thousands of comments and reposts that follow the tradition of deriding Phoenix, whose actual name is Luo Yufeng, for her appearance and antics.
