HONG KONG- Andy Hui kicked off the new year with a provocative concert tour in Hong Kong. Andy had made it known beforehand that his concert will be certainly risqué. Stage performance wise and the female dancing in the concert he says would be Rated III. Judging from these photographs, indeed it was. Andy was dressed in designer torn tank tops as the female dancers were in bras and thongs. Sexual gestures and bodily movements shocked many in the crowds. In America this would be considered a marketing tactic, "Sex Sells" type of concert  but back in China this is certainly deemed inappropriate. But asian views toward sex is definitely starting to open up. His concert will have many different type of reactions. One thing is for sure, that's surely a lot of skin for a Chinese concert. In his interview, he mentions of the late "Big Brother" legend Leslie Cheung as he compares his concert to that of Leslie's performances. He says, "..Leslie is gutsy and charming in his performances. Leslie is the only man that gives me a reaction.....I'm talking about sweaty hands."

Andy's friends Deanie Yip, William So, Edmond Leung, and Kelly Chen were on hand to show their support.
