Ever got into a catfight?





Years ago, I went to an audition for Kopitiam, the sitcom. I thought it was to guest as someone's girlfriend. Turns out, they were looking for a bitchy lawyer to replace Lina Teoh's character on the main cast. I wasn't sure if I could pull it off. I had only done a movie in Singapore where I was pretty 'sweet' but i gave it my best shot.

Well, I didn't expect it but I got the part! In this particular scene, I get into a catfight with the shampoo girl ;) almost ripped her hairband off haha

oh...I miss kopitiam....that hair of urs in Kopitiam is nice....love it!

I don't think it's that funny though (never understand why there are so many "laughs" @ the background...) but still it's a nice cat fight between 2 stevie girl wannabes...

hey Jojo, just for the record, kopitiam is indeed my most fav. local sitcom ever... and i loved the opening theme song...

anyway, i followed the series and then got to know you. at first i didn't like your character at all.. yeah.. she was quite bitchy and..correct me if i'm wrong, she's also whined alot isn't she?

Anyway, i forgot any cat fight scenes but years later after the series ended, i saw you hosting some other programs and then saw the "real" side of you... wow.. u're such a sweet sweet girls..

So thinking back, you did really fit the role quite well, she's quite convincing.. hahahhaa..

Anyway, keep up the good job ya!

ah... Kopitiam.... great memories of that show. I think that time was also about the time where most of the young cast just got their break into the acting world.

Should talk to the producer to do a Kopitiam Reunion wei...
