a lot of these beautiful women are runner upp...so i wonder who's the winner....how beautiful are they in order to win against these now TVB star

Being Chinese and from Hong Kong, I gotta say I was never really proud or really liked any of the Miss Hong Kong, or as matter of fact, the pageant itself.

Mainly because 80% of the time, they just end up in TVB. and sadly TVB absolutely have no international recognition at all. So none of them really go anywhere in terms of acting, singing, and modeling. There are the few rare exception like Michelle Reis etc.. but yeah although I am a fan of Myolie Wu.

and some of these photos don't do the girls justice.

Beautiful ladies! My absolute favorites are Maggie Cheung, Michelle Reis, Anne Heung, and Ada Choi.

hmm

some pictures that don't do justice, but overall interesting thread

i absolutely HATE kate tsui though </3

Most of these pictures don't do them justice. And wow... didn't know they were so old already lol.

Yeah, basically all the Miss HKs go into TVB and get famous for acting.

omg this is really intense lol. good work, you probably spent a lot of time on this!

i like aimee, she's cute

Akina Hong! I love her she's a really good actress but never got any significant role -____- some newcomers just because they won miss hong kong got bigger role than her but their acting werent inch close to what Aking Hong offered TT_TT it makes me sad...

at least Derek Kwok got some recognition for his acting not her =[ it pisses me off!!!

wow, that's SO many!

anyways, i always thought that the girls were just going downhill year after year....but...yeah. i still like watching them....

i didn't realize how many of the current actresses were from the pageants. maybe i should try to enter and then i'll be in TVB too

i thought anne heung was really good in acting the crying parts LOL..shes so whiney..i miss watching her dramas when i was a kid =).

i only recognize the older generation >_<

here's a younger version of angie chiu ngar chi. so pretty.

and of course with Chow Yun Fat harhar

the pageant is a setp stone for most of them to enter the showbiz

^yeah it is. because the winners and runner ups get an acting contract as part of their prize lol

Favourites:

- Kenix Kwok

- Fiona Yuen

- Winnie Yeung

- Shirley Yeung

- Christy Chung

The others are either horrible actresses who don't end up going anywhere, or well, they're just not talented (e.g. ruined by TVB).

i reckon pauline yeung (winner of 1987) was quite cute in the jackie chan movie, dragons forever.
