Elena Kong and boyfriend Ng Kwan Cheung went to a cocktail party for Kennes Yiu's charitable dance premiere event. As for Elena gaining popularity for her character Angela Auntie in "Beauty Knows No Pain", she laughingly said, "When I go outside, people do not call me Angela; rather, they call me Auntie. Fans even make screen caps of me from each episode. They tell me that my character is unlikable, but [she] is very cute. They do not want to hit me". Elena used to work at ATV, so when she was asked if this is the highest rated series she has had since entering the industry, Elena said, "My first double digit ratings was for 'Forrest Cat' and 'Forrest Cat II'. 'Beauty' has really broken my personal record, as it is the highest since I have entered the industry. We are now suggesting to the producer that we should film in Mainland next time. I know that 500,000 people watch [the series] online, so I need to persuade the office ladies not to watch online in order to help with ratings".
Personal Note: I love Angela Auntie! Her lines are so funny! I absolutely love "No, no, no, cannot!" and "Too bad!" Loved the arguing scene at the end of the seventh episode! :D So funny! Ha ha....
"Beauty Knows No Pain" Episode 7a
"Beauty Knows No Pain" Episode 7b
Angela Auntie is such a different role from the previous roles that Elena has played before. I'm happy that people are enjoying her portrayal. :)

I have both Forrest Cat 1 & 2! She plays Connie in the first one right? Can't remember her character's name in the second one though.
ReplyDeleteBut I love her in both. :D
Glad to see she's getting recognized. I might watch 'Beauty' just to see her again. :)
To dvd:
ReplyDeleteYes, Connie Jeh Jeh! :D
Elena's role in the second one wasn't as big compared to the first one. All I remember is that she was paired up with Michael Miu.
Yesh, Elena is a wonderful actress,though sadly underrated. Hopefully Beauty can change that though :) Love all the leading cast for Beauty--amazing acting+chemistry
ReplyDeleteActually, the first series in which I noticed her was the very first series which I watched of her, which happened to be Flaming Butterfly (ATV). I think she had a supporting role there, but I adored her there--only reason why I sat through those episodes xD

ReplyDeleteI never watched "Flaming "Butterfly", but the first series I watched with Elena was actually her first series, which was "Forrest Cat". :)
