Mirror Madness: Raymond Lam’s Reflective Obsession
In the binge‑worthy Call Me By Fire 2 competition, the star who takes a nervous look in every glass landing a few minutes shy of an “I’m Feeling Beautiful” moment is none other than Raymond Lam. The 42‑year‑old Hong Kong actor turns eyes toward his own face nearly nonstop—a habit that got a snarky nod from fellow contestant Ron Ng.
“Mirror Monster” Claims
“He’s a mirror ‘monster,’ the life of the dance floor, the man in the glass,” Ron chuckled. “The mirror is his living room!”
Despite teasing his co‑star, Ron balances his own love affair with selfies. “It’s good to care about how you look,” he points out. “If you spot a lift with a shiny surface on a mall, do you flip to see yourself? It’s those everyday moments that make us believe in our appearance.”
Raymond’s Extra Hours of Glam‑up
When Ron leaves a set to hit the makeup station, he discovers Raymond still glued to the mirror, pretending to be a one‑man Velveteen. “I was practising!” Raymond blurted. “You’re on a dinner‑table shoot, there’s a knife on the plate, so I’d use the flat side to check every angle like a comet in a galaxy.”
Sure, the ceramic “alien” is doing a new reality show showdown, but it means some tribe members, like 32 star‑aged contestants, are stuck in a beauty‑blind world. Background stars include Alex To, Alec Su, Richie Jen, Julian Cheung, Jordan Chan, Van Ness Wu, Wilber Pan, Kenji Wu and Singapore’s Huang Yida.
Who’s been Dropped?
Beloved Hong Kongs Deric Wan and Alen Fang have already left the “Heavenly Household” realm—hard‑to‑believe if the drama were a soap.
