Life and career

[edit]

The daughter of the actor Kenneth Ng Kam Tsun [zh], Ng was born in Hong Kong, where she attended St. Stephen's Girls' College. Encouraged by her parents, she began her entertainment career at the age of 16. She is most known through her comic roles, where she often pokes fun at her plain looks. She has frequently collaborated with Stephen Chow, notably in All for the Winner, Magnificent Scoundrels and Royal Tramp, among others. In a career spanning over 20 years, she has filmed over 100 films and TV shows. She co-hosted Club Sparkle (星星同學會), a celebrity talk show, during the first half of 2009 and is also a radio personality for CRHK. Her radio program, He She Hit (她他她打到嚟!), aired from 12am to 2am on Monday to Friday.

In 1996, Ng dated Hong Kong film director Peter Chan. Later in 2006, they had a daughter named Jilian.

In 1999, Ng won Best Actress at the 18th Hong Kong Film Awards for Portland Street Blues.[1]

In 2003, Ng won Best Leading Actress at the 40th Golden Horse Awards for her role as a prostitute in Golden Chicken.[2][3]

In June 2022, Ng was invited to become a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.[4]

In 2024, Ng's performance in Love Lies earned her a nomination for Best Leading Actress at the 61st Golden Horse Awards, marking her first in 21 years.[5][6]
