TVB Anniversary Feature: Sheren Tang

(I admire her A LOT.)

Graduated from TVB's 1984 acting class, Sheren Tang (鄧萃雯) is already the lead in her first series. Her youthful girl roles captured the audience's attention immediately.

Several years later, she left Hong Kong to attend an interior design program, and thought of quitting the showbiz.

Then she joined ATV when she came back, and filmed several notable series such as I Have a Date With Spring.

Several years later, she returned to TVB.

This time, she captured the audience with her matured and tough roles.

Yu Fei in War and Beauty (2004), Hilda in La Femme Desperado (2006), Kelly in Your Class Or Mine (2008), etc.

She is always the audience's favorite, but it was not until in 2009 that she is finally the TV Queen, winning "Best Actress" with her role as 4 Nai Nai in Rosy Business.

This year, she returns with anniversary series No Regrets, which is Rosy Business' sequel. Her biggest competitor to win TV Queen again is Charmaine Sheh. So, will she crown the award the second time?

TVB Anniversary Feature: Jessica Hsuan

Believe it or not, Jessica Hester Hsuan (宣萱) has been working for TVB for almost 20 years now.

Discovered by TVB in 1991, the actress rose to fame with her role as Samantha Ching in File of Justice IV (1995). Since then, she has become one of the "fa dans" (TVB A-list actress) in TVB. More of her well-known roles include Michelle in Cold Blood Warm Heart (1996), Siu Fong Fong in Old Time Buddy (1997), Ling Choi Fung in Square Pegs (2002), Ko Hei Man in Just Love (2005), and Carmen in Dicey Business (2006).

She can play different kinds of role: gambler, mad wife, tough woman, etc. She has 3 series out this year: A Pillowcase of Mystery II, Sisters of Pearl, and anniversary series Gun Metal Grey. In Gun Metal Grey, she collaborates with Michael Miu again as his love interest. Another tough woman role she plays, should be easy.

Will she win this year's TV Queen (TVB anniversary awards' Best Actress)? Well, she was 1999's TV Queen, winning the award with series Detective Investigation Files IV [first pic]. No need to win more awards to prove her popularity or secure her place as TVB's "fa dan," her work over these years proved it all already.
