Kenneth Ma on Miss Hong Kong: “It’s Like Choosing a Wife”
Kenneth Ma (馬國明) was invited to be a celebrity voter for the 2014 Miss Hong Kong semi-finals, which were held in Tseung Kwan O on Saturday, August 24. On stage Nat Chan (陳百祥), also a celebrity voter, joked to the audience that Kenneth is one of TVB’s top diamond bachelors. Kenneth said, “Yes, it’s like I’m choosing for my wife right now. I will disqualify the ones I like so I can pursue them.”
In an interview before the semi-finals began, Kenneth was asked about his thoughts about the contestants and what his judging criteria was. He admitted that he is easily affected by the contestants’ gossip reports, expressing that he prefers women who are more calm and confident. He also said that he would take into consideration the contestants’ personalities and overall impression. Looks and figure come second. “Must have a good balance of everything.”
Kenneth was earlier photographed eating a meal with a female friend. Kenneth said that the reports shocked his friend so much that she fell sick. He added that she has not asked him out since.
Kristal Tin (田蕊妮), also a celebrity voter, said she would try her best to not read gossip reports about the contestants as that would affect her own judgment on the girls. She said, “We all have our own past. I admire girls who are cultivated and confident.”
Kristal said her favorite contestants were #3 Linna Huynh (黃碧蓮) and #11 Sofiee Ng (吳凱欣), both who managed to make it to the finals.

Fortunately he isn’t the only voter. Otherwise it would take a long time to decide who will be his ‘wife’.
HAHAHAHA good point!
Agree. LOL!
I don’t even think you need to scrutinize so clearly when choosing a wife!!
Yes, Kenneth, it is exactly like choosing a wife.
Wow I totally respect Kristal for not reading about the competitors’ past.
yeah he is totally right is like choosing a wife!!!! 🙂 but seriously…is kind of a awkward thing of saying is like choosing a wife!!! (that is just my opinion) 🙂
He’s seem awkward to me in general haha…LOL so this is nothing weird b/c he sometimes says the weirdest things sometimes.
oh okay..<3
Kenneth Ma always makes these odd nerdy awkward jokes. LOL
seriously kenneth makes so many comments about wives, wifing someone, getting a wife…it’s like his biggest running joke.
but the joke’s on him ’cause he still doesn’t have one. my guess is he really wants to settle down by now lol.
He is getting older even thou he does not look that old yet but he just seems oily to me in most of his series ahaha LOL…
I think he’s the kind that’s too much talk and not much action? LOL…
For some reason, he seems like those two goody goody kind so harder to catch a girl.
Or maybe he prefers to remain in “the closet”.
Talk the talk but can’t walk the walk. He’s a joke and can’t afford a wife. Mama’s boy. 😀 🙁 LOL!
I admit he opened my eyes. He secretly dated a Chinese model who is 14 years younger for few months while still kept saying of finding wife. It means his 5 year promise with Selena was merely for the purpose of promotion. He finally joins the club of TVB “liars” and gets a Chinese young models for himself.
Btw, what did he say last time regarding previous Chinese model scandal? He said that he would never date a Chinese.
Anyway congrats him. He can stop the parody of finding a girl and talk about love as other guys. Overall, he proves he is not “just talk, no action” as everyone often say :P.
And where are you getting the info about him dating 14-yrs junior from?
Also where did he say he wonte date aChinese? I mean, how can he not? he doesn’t speak other lang except canto, and hk-ers are chinese. Sl if he really did say that, then he’s a dumbbutt lol.
Body language?
..wait. you can tell that he doesn’t like Chinese girls by his body language? ?? ? O_o?
I joked that if he doesnt know Chinese, he can use body language to talk to her and that’s enough.
He said that he wouldnt date a Chinese 2-3 years ago, when reporters asked about some scandals of TVB guys dating Chinese models. I rmb he said that he wouldnt date a Chinese because he doesnt understand Mandarin or he refers Hongkong girls. It was such a long time so I dont remember well.
” I rmb he said that he wouldnt date a Chinese because he doesnt understand Mandarin. “
Maybe the Shanghai girl knows Mandarin.
Yes the rumored gf is 14 years old, which make her 26 years old. It’s not like he’s dating 18 years old.
But he should stop with the “Poor me can’t find a girlfriend” charade.
typo: the rumored gf is 14 years old younger
Didn’t know about this at all. Wow, he actually dated a model, someone with day job? Someone who needs holiday to recuperate from doing nothing? But it didn’t last because we all know he liked older women. Go Kenneth, go find your true love now!

The tabloid article.
Finally managed to read the tabloid. Surprisingly the article is very positive and keep praising Kenneth as good boyfriend and the girlfriend is very lowkey and prudent.
It’s normal. Even normal people don’t reveal a relationship until things are more steady, which usually take a few months of getting to know each other during the friendship period.
I can’t read Chinese =_=; so ill take your words for it lol. he looks weird in those pictures lol.
I sense double standard. Not referring to you sehseh, in case you may think so.
Btw, she should be 25 instead of 26? He was born in 1975, 14 = 1989.
He finds himself a young Chinese model, like most of TVB guys around him. The diamond bachelor becomes metal bachelor like others. And he still says of finding a girl to date
So what if Kenneth is dating? The girl is 26 not 18 or 19 and the article said she’s a lowkey and nice girl! So unlike the other siu sang who dated a barely legal teen who is very extremely high profile and making himself look like a big laugh.
He might be just getting to know the girl, no one wants to admit anything when things are still at early stage. Nothing wrong for him to say it’s hard to find a gf because it IS hard to find a good one.
With the current development of internet, her past will be revealed soon.
14 years old seems to be the new trend. A lot of guys with 14 years old younger girlfriend.
Look like he changes. He said that he wouldnt date Chinese, now he dates one. Therefore his favourism of older woman can be adjusted to 14 years younger.
It just shows women of any legal age is ok for Kenneth, he is not that icky about age preference.
According to a hardcore fan of Kenneth, this girl is a bar girl.
“According to a hardcore fan of Kenneth, this girl is a bar girl.”
You sure hope she is. More ammunition for you then.
To shoot some double standard commentors, yes.
“To shoot some double standard commentors, yes.”
Nope, to shoot Kenneth Ma more like it.
I wouldn’t bet my last dollar on a cheap tabloid article. Any woman seen with an A-list TVB actor automatically gets billed as G/f. Look at the example of Ruco Chan. Anyway, MM was born in 1974 not ’75. When you say “Chines”, do you mean China-born or ethnic Chinese?
Shanghai girl. Speaking Chinese. Chinese ID.
you mad bro? you still a crazy raymond lam fan? lmao.
“Btw, what did he say last time regarding previous Chinese model scandal? He said that he would never date a Chinese.”
He has not met the right Chinese girl at the time. Now that he met a nice girl that can capture his heart, can’t let her go just to stand by his past mistaken notion.
People can change their when learn as they grow.
