Anita Mui Yim-fong (nickname: 梅姐, 阿梅) October 10, 1963–December 30, 2003, was a popular Hong Kong pop singer and actress. Over the years, Mui has released over 40 albums. Possibly her best was her fourth album, released in 1986 and named "Bad Girl" (壞女孩) which had an eight platinum-selling album (about 400,000 pieces sold). She is extremely well known throughout Chinese communities worldwide. Because of her huge success as a pop singer, and her ever-changing images, she is often referred to as the "Madonna of Hong Kong," a comparison resented by some fans who felt that she deserves to be recognised in her own right. Her singing career was once compared to that of Diana Ross by CNN. (source: Wikipedia) Level: 4 This term is used in both Cantonese and Mandarin/Standard written Chinese. |
