Two years ago, in Hong Kong’s Children Song Awards Ceremony, there was a little musical number where I was required to kiss the leading male actor on the cheek. This part was always part of the script and I even followed the script and gave the actor a kiss on the cheek during rehearsals. I was acting as a performer, giving what the director wanted and following the script written. After the live show, there were reports saying I was acting on impulse, kissing Ron on the cheek because I was ”發花癡”.
This happened two years ago. I was eighteen years old and to be honest with you, when I first started to rehearse for the show, I was embarrassed to kiss Ron on the cheek too. Sure I’ve seen Ron on television before, but we had never met before the show. Even tho I’m just a new comer to this business, there’s one thing I’ve learnt from my parents to respect the business: be as professional as can be, do the best to do what an actor is required to do so long as it doesn’t put any person in danger. The response to the show was cruel – saying how my “kiss of death” was not suitable for children to view and how it made people feel “噁心”. I never complained or even stressed over the matter partly because directly after the show, I had flown to Canada to move into my university residence where I’d be cut off from the Chinese entertainment news, and partly because after evaluating my performance, felt like I acted as any other professional actor would have done. Being large is not a crime.t’s true that I still have quite a few pounds left to lose, but does that mean that I’m not allowed to befriend members of the opposite sex? Does it mean that when I speak to any male, I’m flirting? Just because I’m dieting doesn’t mean that I’m doing it so I can get more guys, haven’t these people ever thought that I might want to be a HEALTHY person?Fellow big girls and big boys, it’s NOT a crime to be big. We CAN have love and romance in our lives. We ARE NOT predestined to failure. We DO still have futures. We SHOULD NOT allow this cruelty against us. These less people are RUTHLESS.
