Sammi Cheng (鄭秀文) (Cantonese: Cheng Sau-Man; Mandarin pinyin: Zhèng Xìuwén, born August 19, 1972, Birth Name: Twinnie Cheng, Place of Origin: Chaozhou, Guangdong) is a Hong Kong actress and Cantopop singer.
With much success in the Hong Kong music industry, Sammi became one of the Hong Kong pop divas. She also has a successful film career, particularly in the field of romantic comedy. Her goofy, sometimes scatterbrained image went well with the Hong Kong public. In 2000 she made a series of romantic comedies with singer/actor Andy Lau and director Johnnie To, including Needing You (2000) and Love on a Diet (2001), which were hits and incorporate some elements of the screwball comedy.
Beginning
Sammi entered the entertainment industry through an annual singing contest, New Talent Singing Awards in 1988, when she was only 16. She came in 3rd place and the sponsoring record company, "Capital Artist", offered her a contract. At the time, Sammi juggled school and her singing career. Before she had finished her schooling, Sammi managed to release 3 albums: sammi, Holiday and Never Too Late. These albums were somewhat successful for a new artist, but they didn't push Sammi to the A-list level. More on [ Sammi Cheng ]
