Long retired from the Hong Kong entertainment scene, actress Vivian Chow is making a surprising comeback, playing a lesbian in director Ann Hui's latest romantic comedy. A thirteen-year absence from the big screen may have resulted in a nervous start, but Chow was quick to fit into the role.

Vivian Chow is a Hong Kong based Cantopop singer and actress. She is well known for her ladylike stage image and sweet looks. Her nymph-like appearance and elegance is very memorable, even twenty years after she first shot to stardom.

Vivian Chow was born in Hong Kong in 1967. After graduating from high school, she entered the entertainment business, first working as a DJ at Radio Television, then becoming a singer in 1991.

One of her songs, "A Long and Lasting Love" was listed as a chart-topper for the fourth season in 1991. And her "Unrequited Love" won third place in a song competition two years later.

In 1994, "Rumor," another single from Vivian Chow, climbed to the top ten chart. Her musical achievements have made Vivian Chow one of the most popular foreign singers in Japan.

While her musical career was booming, Chow also maintained an active presence on the big screen, starring in over thirty films from 1988 to 1996.
