Tavia Yeung and Kate Tsui Compete for 2012 TV Queen
It’s that time of the year again. With the upcoming TVB Anniversary Awards, TVB is prepared to push out their best dramas to air in the Anniversary time slot! The company’s grand productions, including The Last Steep Aliment <天梯>, Highs and Lows <雷霆掃毒>, Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles <名媛望族>, and The Confidant <大太監> will be the dramas that will air at the end of the year, bringing 2012 to a memorable close.
After famous TVB siu sangs and fadans, such as Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼), Bowie Lam (林保怡), Jessica Hsuan (宣萱), and Joe Ma (馬德鐘) have all decided to leave the company earlier this year, TVB is now prompted to promote other actors and actresses to be the company’s next big stars. Highs and Lows’ Kate Tsui (徐子珊) and Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles’ Tavia Yeung (楊怡) are currently the two top contenders for this year’s TV Queen title.
Singapore’s StarHub TVB Awards Results
Earlier, popular stars such as Moses Chan (陳豪), Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Ruco Chan (陳展鵬), Myolie Wu (胡杏兒), Linda Chung (鍾嘉欣), Selena Li (李詩韻), Kate Tsui, and Tavia Yeung went to Singapore to attend the StarHub TVB Awards. Kate, whose fame rose to an all-time high after portraying “Paris Yiu” in crime drama Lives of Omission <潛行狙擊>, is said to be one of the strongest contenders for this year’s TV Queen. Kate’s Highs and Lows is currently slated for a late September time slot, in which she will star opposite Michael Miu (苗僑偉) and Raymond Lam (林峯).
Kate said, “My character in Highs and Lows is really challenging. I’m very satisfied with it. Hopefully the audience will enjoy it!” When asked if Highs and Lows’ favorable time slot will allow her to have a larger chance to win an award at the end of the year, Kate smiled, “It will! But I should not keep my hopes up so high.”
Tavia’s Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles will also air at the end of the year. As for the imminent battle for TV Queen with her colleagues, Tavia laughed, “I don’t want to fight!”
Myolie Wu and Bosco Wong Win My Favorite Characters at StarHub TVB Awards
Ex-couple, Myolie Wu and Bosco Wong (黃宗澤), each won a “My Favorite Character” award at Singapore’s StarHub TVB Awards last night. Bosco, however, was absent at the event. When asked about Bosco’s absence, Myolie said, “He is busy filming a drama right now, so he was unable to come.” Asked if she and Bosco were to appear at the same event together, Myolie assured, “If we have to, we will. We are still friends. It’s okay!”
Myolie and Ghetto Justice 2 <怒火街頭2> costar, Kevin Cheng (鄭嘉穎) also won “Best Actor” and “Best Actress” at the awards.

Just pray that Aimee and Christine do not get a nomination for the best actress award this year. if both of them get into the top 5, i will kill myself
Sorry just read ur comment Danny and had to lol 🙂 even males are finding them a bit um terrible actresses..theres lots of room for improvement
It would be more interesting if they are in. Then, I wish both are in and even more interesting if one is the winner.
Chance to puke if Christine and AimeeMo win anything
Who knows.. maybe aimee Chan will have a chance.
HK News have been heralding of “Stairway to Heaven” starring Moses Chan and Aimee Chan! What’s Maggie Cheung!?!! Kelefare? LOL
Poor Maggie. Her starring series become Aimeemo series.
Whatever they talk, Maggie Cheung Ho Yee is still the first female lead in that series. I strongly believe that her excellent acting will make herself shine and overshadow the hyped couple.
agree with u Danny, if both of them get best actress then I think its a laugh and TVB yet again got it all wrong.
Guess what. Christine got new gossip out. This time involves Laughing Gor. She’s really hot among HK media LOL.
http://www.ihktv.com/christinekuo-deny-car-shock-michaeltse.html
lol I saw it, first I had to laugh, but then I really felt sorry for her…I guess those rumours can really make her famous =P
lol. it mght happen
I think Michelle Yim might win in her performance in The Confidant. And I think Niki Chow was pretty good in Bottled Passion.
LOLz. TVBFanatic love Christine. LOL if Christine and Aimee got to be finalists. Puke!
I do like Christine – but even I wouldn’t want to see her win or even nominated yet 😛 She still needs to grow a bit.
TVB and tabloids love her LOL. She might get some award soon
Kate Tsui? No chance.
LOL Funn. Really blunt.
Funn:
There is alaways a chance if TVB wants to give the “Best Actress” award to Kate Tsui. Nothing is impossible in TVB!!!
They gonna draw lots=P
TVB awards don’t even have a meaning anymore, at least when it comes to Best Actress in my opinion. They just decide to give it to whoever and yay they’ve become the top at the company for that year.
They should just change it to My Favorite TVB Actress.
If only Hong Kong has a type of Oscar awards where they include TVB, CTV, China’s TV Stations, etc. That would be one heck of a competition and way more interesting to watch.
None of the TVB artists would ever win anything then lol.
No, they should change name to TVB’s most favourite actress :P. With this name they can give it to whoever they want.
Just say Most Favourite Actress. It can be ambiguous this way 😛
It’s interesting that the actresses are being compared on roles that didn’t air yet. Based on past performances, I agree with most that Tavia should be hands-down the winner. I wonder why people are not commenting on her performance on The Hippocratic Crush but instead is talking about SSSS.
Not trying to be disrespectful but Kate is really not competition for Tavia. I wonder why people don’t think Myolie can win again for GJ2. No actress has ever won twice in a role huh?
Sheren Tang did =D But Myolie is nowhere near Sheren… so I doubt Myolie will win again.
Agree. It was a BIG joke for Myolie Wu to win the Best Actress Award last year. We don’t want to have a BIGGER joke this year to have her win the Best Actress award again.
Sorry but what made TVB promote Ghetto Justice so much last year? I get that the roles were different for both Kevin and Myolie but it was an okay series for me. If anything, I think Michael’s Laughing Gor shouldve gotten something, or Wayne, but Wayne already got it.
Its the story. GJ1 was really excellent.
Myolie will win again. Why not? She’s perfect.
Oh sounds good. I like both actresses has the role to be TVB Queen. Tavia’s role on On Call 36 was quite good while all of Kate’s series was broadcasted last year… Except for the new series she acts with Raymond. Both has pretty good chances in my opinion :p
I agree with most of the comment here. I hope not to see Aimee! I rather they promote Mandy Wong.
TY will win all the way..I dont think Kate has any memorable role for the past few years and still on. All I can remember is her dolly curled hair and pouting lips lol.
Kate dun have memorable roles so the others had:P? Some might be considered as roles of Kate are liked are Paris and the role in the series with Joe Ma.
Monkey in A great way to care is also liked, if not why there is sequel?
But the female lead is not Kate anymore. So can’t say TVB film A Great Way to Care 2 because of Kate. TVB is just desperate.
They brought Monkey back to eps 1 due to the reason Monkey is liked. But since Kate is having other plan on hand, she cant act in AGWTC 2 and only does guest this way.
Paris is only memorable because of her many making out scenes with Cripple Co where she choks and pouts her thick lips LOL
Lolz, then in FH 3 Ron is only memorized because he has Kate around :O:-P?
Ron is not memorable in FH3 at all.
I know :P. It is just an example of cannot use partner to describre that simeone is memorable because of the partner. If the role itself is not liked, partner cant help. Anybody rmb Rebecca Zhu as Laughing So?
Well, this is just the news from reporter, nothing has confirmed yet so it might not be the battle only between Kate and Tavia. Tavia definitely wins over Kate but there are plenty fishes still in the show biz, who knows? I guess it’s just the matter of who TVB wants to promote, I don’t think any fadans have sigfinicant role this year so far.
Getting BA is dependent on actress’ acting skill specifically in selected series and I wonder why some say please not Kate because I hate her, there’s nothing to do with hate and love. In my opinion, only teen might have the right to say that phrase since they have the right to be stupid, but as an adult, I think we should judge actor/actress depends on the role they have done not their personality (or just your emotion) in general.
And somehow I feel the nick name like big nose or sausage lips are insulting for the actress, they are people like us and they do their job in order to survive. I appreciate all of them if they really try and look at Linda and Kate, they start quite low but they are getting better and better, the Paris role last year of Kate shows another Kate Tsui I have ever seen. Be fair to all of them.
Very fair and true comment.
to be fair linda/kate both came into the industry through the beauty pageant and automatically start out with a “lead” role, no matter first, second, or third. So they didn’t exactly start out “low”. Tavia is the only one in the field right now that started from the very bottom through tvb acting class and went from no liner servant girls to the first lead actress she is today…
Wrong. Myolie also started with small roles, even smaller than others before having a big roles with some meaty scenes. Fala also started up with kelefe roles, do host for small shows. Kate had small roles but she gets meaty roles faster. Only Linda dun have any small roles.
In other words, Tavia’s acting should be a lot better than the other four fadans’ due to her artistes’ training course and more years of experience. However, Tavia has not impressed us that her acting is a lot better than the other four fadans’ unfortunately.
A lot better, sandcherry? Better even dun exist, a lot better? Lolz.
I meant they started at the low level of acting and their acting is improving. If the actor/actress stays the same, they should be shamed, however as long as they improved, they should be appreciated.
Tavia’s acting was okay in the last few years, but she has not had much improvement thereafter.
I@Icetea_td: replied rain :D. She said only 1 had small roles and it is totally wrong. In fact only Linda is promoted at max in the beginning (slow down now).
Btw I blv start low but improve to be better is way better than starting high but no improvement.
“However, Tavia has not impressed us that her acting is a lot better than the other four fadans’ unfortunately.”
sandcherry- did you say ‘us’???Who are you referring to when you say US? It seems like you’re speaking for the rest of the world.
And getting to the entertainment industry by HK pageant, like most would say, is like taking the fast lane into the industry because as soon as your on that stage, you gain SOME sort of recognition, get to the top 3 or so and you gain yourself opportunities in an acting career. Not saying it’s a BAD thing to go through pageant..as oppose to going through training classes like Tavia did, she had to start off with no recognition when she potrayed smaller roles to where she is now.
But in saying that, no matter the level of recognition an artist has at the very beginning, if their acting is sh*t, even potraying a lead would get them no where.
Hey, some might say Tavia’s acting has not had much of an improvement, but surely there is something in the way she acts that has made her from a no-body to where she is now, leading roles in series. IMO, her acting stands out more than the other current fadans. That’s MY opinion.
If her acting is not better than other fadans, how come she still has so much dramas per year? Anyway, there are always likes and dislikes for any actors/actresses. And what Kandie said is so true! From a NOBODY to where she is now. TY should get the best actress this year.
“If her acting is not better than other fadans, how come she still has so much dramas per year?”
Does this apply to Linda then? She had 3 last year, so far 4 this year, and 2 upcoming.
Tavia: 4 last year, including SSSS is 3 this year, and so far 2 upcoming for next year.
So does that make Linda’s acting skills on the same level as Tavia? Having a lot of dramas does not mean their acting skills are better.
Versatile? Kate and Fala are quite versatile with many types of roles they’ve done so far. Other 3 cant compare to them in versatile because they often have same types of role time after time. But seeing Linda in sexy role is an eyesore to me :P. She is nowhere near sexy. Myolie is also not sexy.
Many series per year can be a sign of (over)promoted, not that acting is good then will have many series. Having many series on hand but bad is still bad. Meaningless.
Every artist is nobody to famous, lmao. Ah of course if they are Susie Cruise then forget the word nobody :P. But how many Cruise baby in the world?
Fox:
Good comments. Agree that Fala and Kate are more versatile vs. the other 3 fadans.
Kandie:
“However, Tavia has not impressed us that her acting is a lot better than the other four fadans’ unfortunately.”
—————————————-
Sorry, I did not mean to include you in my statement. I just meant “many of us” on this Forum.
Kate and Tavia are the worst of the new five bunch, but TVB has planned to make them win this year and tailor made Kate’s drug addict role and hype the role even before filming started. TVB also hype Tavia’s role in Silver Spoon a lot to make it look like she’s a deserving winner. This is comedy.
I really thought TY will win this year because she really cry good in that series with LF. Forgot the name lol
According to Wikipedia the Lead actress on Highs and Lows are:
Elaine Ng,
Ella Koon
Kate
I saw some news and the trailer of Highs and Lows, Ella has more scenes than Kate.
Elaine Ng and Ella Koon are over Kate even though Kate acted more drama than Ella.
Who knows gonna win? The votes are controlled by TVB… who care..Maybe Rebecca Zhu, Aimee or Christine have a chance to get nominate and the Best actress in this year,,
***Rebecca Zhu, Aimee or Christine have a chance to get nominate and win the Best actress!
I hope, lmao. They will make the conversation more interesting.
Among the 5 fadans, I definitely go for Tavia. Her acting has always been constant. Maybe not much improvements lately but definitely not the worst. And she is more versatile compare to the rest. Hope she wins best actress this year.
tavia is a great actress.. though her looks… hmmm she use to look so good i swear.. wat happen. she looks so old in the pic above.
Possibilities that could’ve happen that made her look older:
-PS gone wrong
-bad makeup
-diet gone wrong. Too thin
-too many series filming back to back
-Himhim’s muscles too heavy for her to handle
-others
forgot one option
-all of the above
LOL
hahah its a shame.. i use to think she was pretty
My votes go to Aimme, Christine and Rebecca Zhu.
Maybe Christine will get the most improved actress award… hahah
lolz r u serious…
