People need to remember she won Best Actress specifically for her role in Legal Mavericks that she was fantastic in (watch the scene near the end with her dad in the hospital and Man Hap shows up). She was nominated that year against Mandy Wong, Katy Kung, Ali Lee, and Mandy Lai. Who else do you think should’ve won that year over Sisley? Mandy Wong was weak. Ali had better performances. Perhaps Sisley is not good in other shows, but her Dean Jie was fantastic and was her strongest performance to date. She wasn’t up against any TVB actress juggernauts. If she won over, Sheren Tang’s Kau Mui or Nancy Wu’s Tiu Lan, then I get the outrage but that wasn’t the case. She was up against the previous 4 actresses and she had the best female leading performance *that year*.

I feel like she gets hate for 3 reasons that are not her fault. 1) Her looks are what I’d call “sharp” and not particularly cute or feminine like Eliza Sam or Natalie Tong. 2) She’s been typecasted in sassy hot-headed roles which makes her appear jarring and unlikable. TVB needs to give her different roles. She’s not as bad as an actress and has improved a lot. There is potential. 3) There were rumors going around saying she had a crush on a married man and unfortunately society tends to chastise the woman despite there being no evidence to prove the rumor was true.
