George Lam, 74, Wowed Everyone At The Mid-Autumn Festival Concert, Then Showed Up At The Airport Looking So Down-To-Earth

Everyone in the audience definitely looked like they were having a blast when George was on stage — just check out the following gifs of celebs like Jackie Chan, Joey Yung, Kenny Bee, and Tien Niu turning into complete fanboys and fangirls:

Other A-listers who were seen having a good time were Shu Qi, Nicholas Tse (guess he was more comfortable showing his enthusiasm for anyone but his girlfriend Faye Wong), as well as Twins members Gillian Chung and Charlene Choi.

Jordan Chan, Michael Tse, Jerry Lamb, Julian Cheung, and Edmond Leung, who make up their own group called the “Greater Bay Area” on Call Me By Fire, also took the opportunity to snap a group photo with George backstage. The quintet performed George’s classic hit ‘A Real Man’ at the concert.

Even notoriously hard-to-please netizens were left thoroughly impressed by George, whom they dubbed a “true singer”, and the phrase “How strong is George Lam’s lung capacity?” became a trending topic on social media.

The next day (Sep 22), George was spotted at the airport preparing to fly to Shanghai looking, well, like a totally normal guy instead of a superstar who had just wowed everyone on a massive televised stage.

Dressed in a plain polo tee and wide-legged pants while carrying a simple cloth sling bag, George happily greeted the people around him and basically never put on any airs despite being a literal legend, impressing folks further with his down-to-earth demeanour.
