William Chan earlier was made fun of online as "I don't know who William Chan is".  Amigo Chu joked that a new award "I finally know who William Chan is" should be added and given to Charlene Choi.  Eric Tsang added that the award should go to Ah Sa's father because he knows who William Chan is.

Jade Kwan a few years ago heard her name incorrectly and "stole" Rosanne Kwan Kuk Ying's award.   Host Eric Tsang jokingly announced her Solid Gold award as "Kwan Kuk Ying concert guest Kwan Sum Yin".

The 2011 JADE SOLID GOLD BEST TOP MUSIC AWARDS took place last night at the Tseung Kwan O Television City as the final report card of the music industry this year.  Although the five major record labels have already resolved the royalty issues with TVB, they did not make it in time to have songs on the chart.  As for the Asia Pacific Most Popular Male and Female Singers and the Most Popular Male and Female Singer awards, TVB's own Raymond Lam Fung won the Asia Pacific Most Popular Male Singer award for the third year in a row and with the song CHOK won the Solid Gold Gold Song award.  Wong Yuen Chi surprisingly won her first Asia Pacific Most Popular Female Singer.  Leo Ku Kui Ke won his fourth Most Popular Male Singer.  The Most Popular Female Singer went to Joey Yung Cho yi for the seventh time.  Joey this year won 14 awards at four award shows and defeated Eason Chan Yik Shun who won 12.

Last night Eric Tsang Chi Wai, Amigo Chu Kin Bong, Christine Ng Wing Mei and the Grasshoppers were hosts.  Among the five major record labels, Warner and Sony executives were on hand, but only 70 singers attended.  Mainly Emperor held down the fort.  Five major singers Eason Chan Yik Shun, Kay Tse On Kay and Hacken Lee Hak Kun remained without awards.  The award show opened with a group of rookie singers and the Grasshopppers' performance, then immediately presented the first Solid Gold award to the Grasshoppers.  Without five major singers, Pong Nan Yik Bong, Wong Cho Nam, Ken Hung Cheuk Lap and William Chan Wai Ting were all in the front row.  Even Chan Wai Ting who only wrote one song won the Most Popular Creative Singer Bronze Prize.

Asia Pacific Most Popular Hong Kong Male Singer went to Lam Fung for the third time as he defeated the earlier rumored winners of the Grasshoppers and Leo Ku Kui Ke.  When Lam Fung was announced, Lady Ng could not help but screamed Chok King.  He stated that the first time he won this award he forgot to thank many people.  The most important was for him to thank a group of people who trusted him and gave him opportunities.  He said, "I don't mind too much about how I feel, what I mind the most is the feeling that I give them."  He also thanked TVB for cultivating him all along and thanked elders like Ng Yu.  He also thanked all of his fans who never abandoned him.  He also hoped that all the singers would be together again on the stage and perform better year after year.

Asia Pacific Most Popular Female Singer went surprisingly to Ivana Wong Yuen Chi for the first time as she defeated the earlier rumored winner Joey Yung Cho Yi.  When the host announced Wong Yuen Chi, she was stunned in the audience and said not to scare her and said to Gillian Chung Yun Tung who was next to her, "No way."  She said that this was a great award.  She had to calm down and think about what to say.  Then tearfully she said that all along she put all her heart into making good music, from the first day in the business to today the seventh year.  She has never thought about winning any major award.  She wanted to thank people who encouraged her.  She also thanked TVB, East Asia Records, fans and the entire music team.  She said, "if some feels that I have to work even harder, I will do my best to fulfill the singer duty."  Wong Yuen Chi after performing received a standing ovation from the singers.

The Most Popular Female Singer went to seven time winner Yung Cho Yi, an expected result.  When Lee Hak Kun presented the award to Joey, Joey said to him, "You come back.  The first year when he and I won an award, that was when he got married.  Now he has two sons.  I really feel very happy, thank you TVB for encouraging me again.  Many people said that since it wasn't the first award, aren't you used to it?  Actually no, this year I worked very hard on learning to play the guitar, spent a lot of time to communicate with music.  Hopefully next year I would reach this destination."  The Most Popular Male Singer went to four time winner Ku Kui Ke.  On the stage he thanked Emperor and TVB and said that 18 years ago when he released his first record, he was a kid who really liked singing.  Now he will produce his Cantonese and Mandarin record, make his own music video.  Now he not only liked, he loved his music job very much.  He tearfully said, "In recent years at Hong Kong award shows, everyone's attention has been on who competed with who, the power struggle between companies and less on the effort and hard work that singers paid.  I started to get a little confused on the meaning of attending ceremonies, but when I brought the awards to celebrations, company colleagues would be very excited and emotional, every year I would go to fan club meetings and bring this award for fans to take pictures with.  I saw how happy the fans were, and I realized that to them it was very important."

The Solid Gold Gold Prize went to Lam Fung's CHOK.  Lam Fung said that this award did not belong to him but to all of Hong Kong, because Chok was a creation of Hong Kong.  He said, "I want to thank very much musicians who have worked very hard with me this year.  This year I have experienced a lot of rises and falls, hopefully everyone will bring my Chok back.  Next Year I will Chok for everyone again."  Last night Yung Cho Yi and Lam Fung both won four awards.  With the earlier Metro Radio, Radio Hong Kong and Commercial Radio and last night's TVB music awards, Yung Cho Yi won 14 awards and defeated Chan Yik Shun with his 12 awards to become the year's big winner.

When Joyce Cheng Yun Yi received the Most Popular Female Rookie silver prize, she broke down in tears and joked that she did not have looks, figures or long legs, but she would continue to work hard.  This award was a good start.  She also thanked her mother Lydia Shum Din Ha.  The Female Rookie Gold Prize winner Lam Yun Tung was teary eyed.  When Ng Wing Mei announced her friend Cheung Chi Lam's Solid Gold award, she screamed in excitement and pointed out that her good friend waited for 20 years and finally got it.  Cheung Chi Lam thanked TVB and his company and also said that he only took a small step forward.  Guest performers included Tat Ming, Sally Yeh (Yip Sin Man), Jeff Chan Shun Jit and five major's Hacken Lee Hak Kun.
