Thursday, May 10, 2007 Hong Kong Since her appearance on the showbiz scene, Bernice Liu has been dubbed as the 'Fat Princess', but despite the pride that many TVB ladies place in their skinny figures, this has never put any pressure on her. She has even caught the attention of an international sports brand, who have helped her turn around the skewed opinion that 'slim is beautiful'. Bernice took part in an event in Beijing earlier, where she joined a thousand people in a 'PK Street Dance'. Bernice hopes that this trend in competitive dance will catch on in Hong Kong and bring the message of a healthy lifestyle to women in Hong Kong. In respect of health and beauty, many people maintain that 'slim is beautiful', but Bernice strives in the opposite direction and says: "Everyone has a different figure: tall or short, fat or thin, but everyone has their own beauty. With so many international models so skinny, it sends a message to children that being skinny means you are beautiful." The truth is that Bernice has never really lost any weight since she first filmed "Virtues of Harmony", but she has not intentionally slimmed down either. She has been keeping her body balanced and using exercise to maintain her weight. As for the skin and bones look of some of the other ladies, does Bernice feel any pressure? She smiles: "Every female artiste has her own qualities. Charmaine is Charmaine, Myolie is Myolie - we cannot all be the same. We have different markets and one person cannot do it all. This is what makes it all challenging." credits: tvbspace, asianfanatics.
I think she's got a nice body relative to those (saggy) skin and bone "beauties" in Hong Kong... She's got a glow (I know it sounds lame but it's true!)
