Miss Hong Kong 2014: Sofiee Ng Wins Tourism Ambassador Award
The Miss Hong Kong 2014 semi-finals will take place on August 24. The 16 candidates were introduced to the public earlier, and #11 Sofiee Ng (吳凱欣) has quickly become one of the hot favorites. Sofiee was selected for the Tourism Ambassador Award and received the award from last year’s winner, Grace Chan (陳凱琳).
When asked if she had any favorites in the competition so far, Grace replied, “Contestant #11’s performance has been good and I personally like #8 Jamie Lee (李汶蔚). I favor #15 Veronica Shiu (邵佩詩) because she is also from Vancouver and a genuinely sincere person from the heart.”
Favorites Are Rumor Magnets
Sofiee has been a hot favorite since the beginning of the competition. Unfortunately, a lot of rumors about her personal life have cropped up as well. A fellow flight attendant at Sofiee’s work revealed that Sofiee was only able to participate in the competition because of her director boyfriend, Nick Cheuk (卓亦謙).
In response, Sofiee had no choice but to clarify her relationship with Nick. “He is my boyfriend and he is the one who nominated me. We’ve been dating for a year. We were classmates in university, and he supports my decision in participating in Miss Hong Kong.” Sofiee added that she is not afraid of being pursued by the wealthy second generation and will think about these matters later.
Regarding plastic surgery speculation reports, Sofiee strongly denied the allegations and urged everyone to take a look at her old photos as proof. Sofiee pointed out that in an old photo, she weighed 120 pounds at the time. After dieting and dropping to her current weight of 98 pounds, Sofiee pointed out that there may be differences in her features which led to a misunderstanding.
Another favorite, #4 Maggie Chung (鍾美琪), was said to be a frequent nightclub partygoer. An insider revealed that Maggie liked one-night stands and was a home wrecker. Maggie firmly said, “I only go [to clubs] when my university friends celebrate their birthdays and rarely go out on regular basis. It’s just normal socialization. I can’t accept one-night stands and I seldom party because I have a lot of homework and have to help my mother out. And I definitely don’t have any intimate photos.”
It was revealed that #1 Jan Tse (謝芷倫) got engaged with boyfriend, IT technician Simon So (蘇文迪), at the beginning of the year and took a two-month trip to New Zealand. Jan was previously represented by a talent management agency, which violated the eligibility rules of the Miss Hong Kong Pageant. Afraid that her pageant eligibility would be questioned, Jan reportedly haggled with her agency to end her contract early. An insider revealed that Jan successfully terminated her contract on August 9, 2014 after TVB issued warning that any candidates with outstanding agency contracts will be ousted.

yayyyy!! she’s actually the only one i remember from all the contestants! and i’m actually rooting for her!!
Based on the above photo, I think Sofiee Ng looks prettier than Grace Chan (who looks too skinny).
Grace’s super long chin looks scary and her cheeks look way exaggerated.
you no taste!
Bad taste is worse than no taste.
Oh lord.. I look at the photo up top and my first reaction was.. Grace is so much prettier… other doesn’t look good at all..
Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder..
i agree. sofiee is a pretty girl but grace is imo beautiful.
Grace is one baaaaaaaaaaaaaad girl
Just average looking contestant/candidate
It should be based on much more than physical appearance.
Hi Ki,
Miss what and what is not just about the physical appearance but her personality and brains are equally important.
Just imagine a really pretty girl but without personality nor brains to represent a country to compete with other contestants what would happen then?
Hong Kong may not have beauties like Michelle Reis, Anita Yuen, Kenix Kwok, ah just to name some. I still think that those previous Hong Kong contestants were really blessed with good looks.
She kind of looks like Sharon Chan…with pointy nose and chin.
That was my first thought too. She really looks like Sharon.
Something odd about this girl’s eyes…
I totally agree…
too much make up
some of kelly chen’s picture also, one eye looking straight, the other another direction
Yeah, i was about to say that too.
Well, usually the public fav won’t win the crown. Just like what happened to Tracy Chu. But #11 is the outstanding one as I recall seeing her resemblance with Kelly Chen. 🙂
she looks like Bosco’s sister in The Ultimate Addiction…
Yup looks like Her!
you mean Gloria Tang??
Exactly my thought
Looks very ordinary girl-next-door only.
this year all looking ugly
yeah….i support #11 sofiee Ng!!!!! until when the semi final starts on sunday the 24th 2014!!!-in Australia!!!!!
Grace chan looks so pretty in that photo!!!! 🙂
Hi littlegalpal,
Christiany is a popular religion these days. I must say that both christianity and islam both encourage its followers to preach. Whereas other religions dont really do that.
Yes, I also agree with you that being good doesnt mean you’ve to be a person that stays home, study. I used to go disco/pubs/karaoke you name it almost on every week till wee hours. But I didnt pick up smoking nor I was sleeping around. I just enjoyed the loud music and hang out with friends. That was why I always believe you’re yourself, if you want to learn bad things from your friends or the environment blame it yourself. You’re the type that easily influenced by ppl etc.
I agree that
I don’t understand Asia mentality on pp going to nightclub. There’s a perception if you go to nightclub you’re a “bad” person. I guess to be a “good” girl, all you do is study, go home and socialize only at church.
I know what you mean. My annoying and overly religious aunt and mom are like thar. They perceive people who go out a lot,especially women as bad girls while the girls who stay at home,study,etc…as good girls. That is old school traditional thinking right there.
What’s a half-starved indian girl doing beside Sofiee Ng?
Hi Andy,
I’m only worried that young girls will think that Grace Chan’s weight is ideal and wants to be stick thin like her.
