performing in her world tour concert in Malaysia. Sammi had a new commercial,
she's being the Veeko fashion clothes Asia representative. Veeko's clothes are

Taiwan, China and Singapore. Tomas Chan will be the image director to help Sammi
matching the clothes.

Fung) 24 hour marathon KTV contest. There are total 12 groups of fans challenged
the 24 hours nonstop karaoke contest. Sammi said the longest record that she had
in karaoke is 13 hours. She was very impressed that the fans had so much
patients to sang in 24 hours. Sammi think this is a very hard mission. The final

last year's movie "Love on a Diet", the people liked Sammi's character

The
director, Chen Ho Sun invited Sammi to shoot a long prepared movie called
"Waiting", the actor will be Chow Yun Fat, the shooting will take
place in Russia. This movie will consider as a Hollywood movie. If Sammi agreed
to shoot the movie, Sammi will have a chance to enter to the Hollywood market.
Since the movie is using English to communicate, Sammi who is not good with
English will have a high level of difficulties. When Sammi red the story of the
movie, it was very touched, her tears are dropping. Sammi will act as Chow Yun
Fat's mistress and she will act from a 20 year old to a 40 year old, it's a big
challence to Sammi. But the time is a problem for Sammi since she is so busy and
the movie takes 2 monthes to shoot, also, Sammi have a lot of stress in working
with her admired actor, Chow Yun Fat. So nothing had confirm yet, Sammi still
need to time to think about the movie.

pale if a girl had no lipstick on. When asked what part in the face that Sammi
care most of. Sammi said the lip, because she is shooting the commercial, but
her true words is the eyebrow. When asked what thing is most important when
putting on make-ups, Sammi said is the cover, because that's the base of
everything.
In
an interview in Taiwan, Sammi said she wanted to be a not shaving armpit woman.
She thinks shave armpits are very annoying, women are not fair. Sammi wanted to
create an image of woman not shaving armpit as a fashion, so when they wear
tan-top and their armpit shown will be very man. But Sammi is not brave enough
to be a showing armpit female star. Another wish that Sammi have is to rent a
small barren island and run around the island with no clothes on. Since too much
stress that Sammi had from work everyday, even Sammi can't do that wish in
action, but as in a mind of thinking run around with no clothes on, is a relief
of stress.
