Deng Siu-chun’s ‘stamp-collecting actress’ claim sparks guessing game
SingTao · 3 SOURCES1 day ago5 MIN
Summary
Tang Siu-chun (鄧兆尊) said on the debut episode of the online talk show Men Forever that there was a well-known actress in the entertainment industry who had been involved with male stars from first-tier to fourth-tier status. He described her as attractive, saying she had both looks and figure, and added that he had worked with her before but had never been linked to her romantically. Tang also said the woman is now in her 50s and hinted that they had collaborated when he was just starting out. The comments quickly set off online speculation over her identity, while a separate report revived Sandra Ng’s 2009 on-air joke about a supposed actress who wanted to “collect” Andy Lau as well.
Key Points
- On the programme Men Forever, Tang said the actress had “collected” many men and had effectively covered first-, second-, third- and fourth-line male stars.
- When host Ah Fei asked for the woman’s surname, Tang refused, saying that if he said it, people would know immediately.
- Tang said he had worked with the actress, never had dating rumours with her, and was not one of her targets because he was very thin when he debuted.
- Online guesses named Ada Choi? No, the reports specifically listed Christine Ng, Elena Kong, Charmaine Sheh, Nina Li Chi and Irene Wan? No; the cited reports named Ng Wing-mei, Kong Yan-yin, Charmaine Sheh, Lee Lai-chun, Chan Wai and, most frequently, Ellen Chan.
- Chan Wai later told media she had no contact with Tang, had only met him at several events, had not watched the programme, and had no comment.
Why It Matters
The episode shows how loosely sourced celebrity gossip can rapidly pull named actresses into public speculation, even when the original speaker withholds an identity and another source later frames a similar “stamp-collecting actress” story as a joke. For Hong Kong entertainment audiences, it also underlines how online talk shows can amplify old industry rumours and turn suggestive clues into viral guessing games within days.
