Rui En
Template:Contains Chinese text Template:Infobox Chinese-language singer and actor Lu Rui En (Chinese: 卢瑞恩; pinyin: Ruì'ēn; better known by the stage name Rui En, 瑞恩, born 29 January 1981) is a Singaporean singer-actress currently based in Singapore.
Rui En was talent-spotted while appearing in SingTel's popular SingTel hi!Card commercial as the iconic "running girl" in 2001. She was offered a general management contract by Artiste Networks, a section of Hype Records. In 2002, Rui En debuted her acting career in Singapore with her first drama, titled No Problem!. Since 2004, she has averaged one to three dramas per year. In late 2002, Rui En launched her music career in Taiwan, titled Rui ∑n vol. 01, under the record company Alfa Music. Rui En released her second album in Singapore under Hype Records, titled United Nations, in late 2008.
Notably after 2007, Rui En gained a significant pool of fans, earning her the title of Singapore's 'Most Popular Local TV Actress'[1] in 2010 and subsequently, the title of Singapore's 'Most Popular Local TV Actor (Males & Females)'[2] in 2011. RBKD (Chinese: 瑞不可当) is her official fan club and according to the group, the name was inspired from the Chinese idiom, 锐不可当[3] (pinyin: ruì bù kě dāng), and is to mean 'Rui En is unstoppable'.
In 2011, Rui En picked up her first acting nomination at the Singapore Star Awards 2011. She went on to win the 'Best Actress Award' with her role as a young widow[4] in With You, highest rated Singapore drama in year 2010[5].
Life and career
Education
Rui En was educated at Singapore Chinese Girls' School for both her primary and secondary education. She took up ballet as a co-curricular activity in Primary Five but gave it up in Secondary One, citing the pressure of coming from a wrong socio-economic class as the reason.[6] She joined the choir in Secondary Three and Four.[6] She completed her A Levels at the pre-tertiary education in Raffles Junior College,[7] in which she won the championship in National Schools’ Hockey Tournament. Despite claiming to be her Chinese teacher's worst nightmare because she was never good in her Chinese,[8] Rui En penned all the lyrics to her second Chinese album, titled United Nations.
Amidst her hectic schedule, Rui En managed to graduate from Nanyang Technological University with a Bachelor of Business in 2004, specializing in Banking and Finance. In 2007, Rui En was presented with the Nanyang Outstanding Young Alumni Award by her alma mater Nanyang Technological University in the annual affair[9] but was unable to personally attend the ceremony.
Growing up
In December 2008, Rui En did a confessional interview with The Monday Interview titled 'Inside the Outsider',[6] first published on The Straits Times. She confessed that she used to smoke and drink socially, and how she grew up feeling insecure as the only child in her broken family. Her parents subsequently divorced when she was seventeen.
The article struck a chord with the masses, especially those who grew up in similar environment. When asked of her rationale for such a heart-to-heart interview, she was quoted to say, "I am hoping that kids who read this might realise that no matter how bad your family situation is, you have a choice not to be a victim".[6] The article was subsequently translated into a Mandarin version and published on Shin Min Daily News; other publications such as The New Paper and Elle Singapore edition, have also taken reference to the article too.
Music career
Rui En ventured into Taiwan in 2002 under the Chinese name of 芮恩 (pinyin: Ruì'ēn). She made her first appearance as the female lead in label mate Jay Chou's music video for "Secret Code" and went on to co-endorse Panasonic GD68 with him. Rui En subsequently released her debut regional Chinese album Rui ∑n vol. 01 in the same year under the co-production of Hype Records and Alfa Music. Jealous fans of Jay Chou were reported to have bore a grudge at Rui En for the help he rendered to her, warning her against getting too close to Jay Chou.[10] There was however, another group of fans who gave Rui En full support on Jay Chou's account. Jay Chou composed the first hit of her debut album Rui ∑n vol. 01, titled "White Feather".
Rui En was nominated as the Best Local Singer in the Singapore Hit Awards 2003 and was selected alongside Taufik Batisah to perform both the English and Mandarin versions of the 2005 National Day Parade's theme song - "Reach Out For The Skies".
After a six years' break, Rui En released her second Chinese album in late 2008 under Hype Records, titled United Nations. This album was only released locally in Singapore and all the lyrics were penned by Rui En herself. Since then, she resumed the use of her original name, 瑞恩 (pinyin: Ruì'ēn). In April 2009, Rui En was invited to perform at Singapore Day 2009 at London's Hampton Court Palace, a yearly event organised by the Overseas Singaporean Unit in the Prime Minister's Office to engage overseas Singaporeans.[11]
Acting career
Rui En landed in her first ever leading role in 2005, with A Promise for Tomorrow as the bubbly 'Fang Fang'. In the following year, she was identified as one of the most promising young actresses in the Singapore Entertainment Industry by local entertainment magazine I-Weekly and was hence labeled as one of the '7 Princesses'.[12] Often dubbed and referred to as the 'Cool Princess' for her nonconforming attitude, she has openly expressed her desire to be recognized and remembered for her performances rather than with the title. Admittedly, Rui En has improved on her acting only after rising to the rungs of leading actresses in the local acting industry.
Before winning her first Best Actress award in 2011, Rui En was already acknowledged as one of the finest local actress of her generation, receiving compliments from award-winning and veteran actors such as: Adrian Pang,[13][14] Chen Hanwei,[13][14] Chen Li Ping,[15] Chen Shucheng[13][14] & Zhu Houren[16] etc.. Veteran actor Chen Shucheng named her in the company of acclaimed local actresses Huang Biren and Ivy Lee, all of whom, he said, could cry "beautifully" and reflect the demands of the scenes' context.[13][14]
The Straits Times complimented Rui En for giving worthy performance [17] in With You and executive producer Paul Yuen has also likened her to a younger Sheren Tang,[18] well-known Hong Kong actress whose acting is critically acclaimed regionally.
Hot favourite for Star Awards: Best Actress 2011
With three dramas, Rui En has been labelled as one of the 10 Faces to watch in 2010 [19] by MediaCorp's Buzz. She is tipped to be a strong contender for Best Actress in Star Awards 2011.[20]
In an interview with I-Weekly, Rui En was singled out by veteran actor Zhu Houren as the most deserving contender to claim the coveted Best Actress recognition in Star Awards 2011.[16] He was impressed by Rui En as Yang Xiaodong in Happy Family, describing it as 'natural' and 'just right' (an industry's term to describe perfect handling of the role, according to him).[16] Known for his daring speeches, he claimed that Rui En should win the award next year unless the judges are incapable of appreciating fine acting.[16] He also expressed his wish to collaborate with Rui En in future.[16]
In Star Awards 2011, Rui En finally picked up her first acting nomination. Widely tipped as the forerunner by the media,[21][22] Rui En went on to win the coveted title.[4] Rui En acknowledges "there has been more lows than highs" [23] in her career and in her acceptance speech, she said "despite those who said I won't succeed with my personality and image, it shows with hard work you can do it." [4]
Popularity
Since 2005, Rui En has garnered 7 consecutive 'Top Ten Most Popular Female Artiste' trophies in the Star Awards, a high profile annual award ceremony organised by MediaCorp Singapore to recognise the best and the most popular in the Singapore Acting Industry.
Following the success of her leading role as An Xiaoqian in Singapore's Best Drama of the year 2007 - Metamorphosis, Rui En gained a large fan following in Singapore.[24] In March 2008, Rui En dethroned Fann Wong (previously a 5 time consecutive winner) in the annual popularity contest - Students' Idols Voting (Acting Category - Local/International), organised by now defunct newspaper, Friday Weekly, to claim the much coveted first runner-up position. The winner of the category went to Jay Chou.
In the year 2009's televised countdown event organised by Channel 8, Rui En won one of the eight 'Top 8 Likable Female Lead Characters' awards with her only production that year as Zhang Yu Hang in By My Side. She was rumored by some, to have garnered the most number of votes in this popularity contest. In February 2009, Rui En beat fellow actress Jeanette Aw, hot favorite after the huge success of The Little Nyonya, to the coveted title of Babe of the Year[25] in the annual Flame Awards organised by The New Paper.
In an informal survey conducted by MediaCorp's Branding and Promotion Vice-President Paul Chan, Rui En and Elvin Ng were voted as the Best On-Screen Couple in 2009.[26] Rui En and Elvin Ng also emerge tops as the 'Favourite On-Screen Partners' in the Star Awards 2010. They won with their performance as Lin Jiaqi and Sato in The Dream Catchers.
Rui En was voted as the Most Popular Local TV Actress[1] in Singapore Entertainment Awards 2010 organised by Singapore Press Holdings. Voting spanned across 4 weeks and Rui En secured the top position since Day One. In 2011, the Actors and Actresses were grouped collectively to compete in the 'Most Popular Local TV Actor' category, voting spanned across 6 weeks. Despite keener competition, Rui En secured the top position since Day One, and emerged as the 'Most Popular Local TV Actor'[2] in Singapore Entertainment Awards 2011 for the second consecutive year.
In Star Awards 2010, Rui En's role as Zhang Luoyun (My School Daze emerge as the 'Top 10 Favourite Female Characters' while her other role, Lin Jiaqi (The Dream Catchers), emerge as the 'Top 5 Favourite Female Characters'.[27] Voting spanned across 6 weeks and more than a hundred entries were nominated.
Rui En claimed the highly competitive 'Most Favourite Female Character' award [28] with her role as the likable Yang Xiaodong (Happy Family) in Star Awards 2011. Results were solely determined by online votes and Rui En led in the top position since Day One. However, she lost out in the 'Favourite On-screen Couple (Drama)' [29] category with a top three final position.
Controversies
Missing out on Best Actress nomination: Metamorphosis
In 2007, Rui En caused an uproar in the virtual community when she surprisingly missed out on a nomination in the Best Actress Category in Star Awards 2007 for her breakthrough role as Assistant Superintendent An Xiao Qian in Metamorphosis. An online petition was initiated with hundreds of signatures submitted, prompting MediaCorp Singapore's media team to interview recognized actor Chen Han Wei and Ivy Lee [30] for their takes on this issue. Subsequent reporting were published on online news, Xin.sg [30] and leading Chinese local newspaper, Lianhe Zaobao.
Role rejection
In March 2008, Rui En was involved in a high profile rejection of the role as an ambitious businesswoman struggling with mental illness in The Defining Moment, which subsequently went to Fann Wong instead. She was reported to have rejected the role due to a rape scene in the script. Rui En is known to be firm on her stance against intimate, revealing or kissing scenes and has been criticized by some as unprofessional. She is reported to have been blacklisted by some producers[6] after this role rejection incident but her supporters have avowed unwavering support.
Missing out on Best Actress nomination: By My Side
In April 2009, despite an informal viewers' survey labeling Rui En as a strong contender [31] for the coveted Best Actress Award in the annual Star Awards, Rui En again missed out on a nomination for her role as AIDS patient-cum-volunteer Zhang Yu Hang in By My Side. Her poor public relations skill was thought to be a contributing reason to why she has never garnered any nomination in the acting categories despite being generally acknowledged as one of the finer local actresses of her generation. However, she picked up her fourth consecutive Top Ten Most Popular Female Artiste trophy despite not being present at the Star Awards 2009 due to overseas work commitment.
Community
Rui En is the theme song singer for The Community Chest of Singapore. The song, titled "Listen to Your Heart", has been released in the form of EP in years 2003 and 2009. Despite her hectic schedule, Rui En is a regular volunteer at Beyond Social Services.[32] She has expressed her wish to remain low profile with regards to her volunteering as she has no wish to utilize this to benefit her public image.[33]
