Have you heard about her before?

Kathy used to be in many TVB series during 80s-90s
For example,
- Yang family
- The sword of conquest (co-star: Eddie Kwan)
- Time Before Time (co-star gordon lam)
- Plain love (co-star: gallen lo, eddie cheung)
- Cherished Moments (co star: Leon Lai)
- The Feud of the Two Brothers (co-star : Alex man, etc.)
- Flame of Fury
- The Price of Growing Up (co-star : Alex man)
- secret of the heart
etc.

She is so compatible with Leon Lai. I think they have best on-screen chemistry.

She's also in the HSDS1994 (Taiwanese version)

She's a model, also a writer.  I think she's Niki Chow's older sister.

:loool:


:blink: really? I never knew it was Niki Cho's older sister. I guess if you think about it they do look like siblings...
I like Cathy, she's such a good actress and so beautiful. I wonder what she is doing now? I hardly ever see her around... when I do hear about her she just does modeling I think.

I don't think so. I heard that she concentrates on the model or advertisement job, stuff like that. She filmed some series with ATV ages ago.

I think her name is Kathy Chau. I heard that she's in China right now taping an ancient series. Her latest series were "Asian Heros" with Michael Tao, Felix Wong, "The Legacy Of Pride" with Kai Wa Ng, and "Share Life And Death" with Li Ya Peng (yesasia.com). She acted in a lot of movies like Beast Cops, The Love & Sex of The Eastern Hollywood, Vampire Controller, Memento, A Decisive Move, ...

I thought it was suppose to be Kathy Chow and not Cathy Chow, but either way I loved her series back then. Leon Lai played a couple with Kathy Chow in a couple of series. My favorite was Breaking Point.

Please stop confusing yourselves with Chow Man Kei and Chow Hoi Mei. The pictures that were posted were all Chow Man Kei's but this thread is supposed to be Chow Hoi Mei's.
I also noticed that Niki Chow looks more like Chow Hoi Mei rather than her real sister Chow Man Kei.

I do not cry in many movies at all. One of those moments would have to be when Cathy died in "Secret of the Heart." I lost interest in that series after she died. Wish she would have lived >.<.

I love Chow Hoi Mei, she's so pretty, such a shame she's not doing any series/movies anymore :/

Those pictures posted up by KLCB don't even look like her! She looks so diff compared to her Secret of the Heart days but she still looks great for her age :D

The girl with Felix is the real Kathy Chow that is discussed in this forum (at least i think it is). The other pictures are pics of another Kathy Chow that is Niki's sister.
So much confusion has occured just because there are 2 people of the same name....must we type the full name everytime...

Can you believe Chow Hoi-Mei is 38 years old this year (2005)? Like fine wine, she certainly got a lot better with age.

In 1988's TVB Series "Looking Back In Anger", she was so 80's with those shoulder pads. 22 years old at the time, it was definitely a very new and green Chow Hoi-Mei.

In 1998's "Cheap Killers", she was thinner, sexier, and looked nothing like her 32 years. Her portrayal of a trashy, wanton lover is one of the most copied and cliched "token" characters ever.

While she certainly has fallen out of favor in recent years, she certainly acted with the best. Her performance in "Looking Back in Anger" was up to par with co-stars Carina Lau, Felix Wong, and Deric Wan. I think its a tragedy that she isn't more in the public eye as an actress.

I would love to see Chow Hoi-Mei another series with the all-time greats: Carina Lau, Felix Wong, Michael Miu, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, and other A-listers of the time.

Thanks.

I think Kathy Chow acted for ATV for a while after she left TVB. Then she went to China & Twaian for a while. But she is still an actress. I think she has two new series with ATV. One of them is "Asian Heroes" & the other one is ????<--not too sure what's it's called. But both of those two series were 2000 and beyond.

“#20 Kathy Chow Hoi-mei became a very popular TV and film actress and is still very active these days. Why she failed to even make the top 15 is still a mystery, because she was a hot pick of many. She was ill and bed-ridden for some time during her junior high school years, and while she recovered subsequently, her academic results were still affected when she was about to graduate and she felt very frustrated. Her father encouraged her to enter the pageant to have some fun, and she did it without caring much. During the preliminary interviews, she was very true to herself when some TVB people asked whether she liked watching EYT (= ‘Enjoy Yourself Tonight’, a very popular variety show in Hong Kong), and she replied ‘no’. They asked why and she said, ‘I simply have no interest in it’!”

I'm so sorry for I made a very BIG MISTAKE by spelling "C" instead of "K" for 周 海 媚 Kathy Chow Hoi Mei's name, in this topic's headline....

It was my fault to make everybody to get confused of between 周 海 媚 Kathy Chow and 周汶錡 Cathy Chow (Niki Chow's older sister) name
