Sammi Cheng - Just Wants Happiness


Sammi Cheng (鄭秀文) celebrated her 36th birthday yesterday evening. After converting to Christianity, it seems that she has ditched her reputation as a drunken party animal, opting instead for a more sedate dinner party at the Kiangsu And Chekiang Residents Association restaurant in Central, with some of her church friends.

Sammi Cheng emerged from the venue after the meal at around 10pm and happily answered questions from the waiting press. She was smiling and had obviously enjoyed her evening. Asked what her birthday wish was, she replied that she hoped to continue being happy. She added that she had received a lot of gifts from her friends, but was called away before she revealed what she had received.

When the reporters called out for her to have a happy birthday, she turned back and gave a polite thanks before saying goodbye.


Sammi Cheng Sau Man


Similar to "Heavenly King", Aaron Kwok, Sammi Cheng's career started with Capital Artists and later with Warner Music.

The lack of fast, upbeat songs by female singers in the early to mid-90's gave Sammi Cheng a chance to stardom, and she very well took advantage with some great dance hits, including "Lost Memory" and "Ding Dong".

Sammi cheng did just as well with romantic songs, with hits like "The Saddest Person", and the karaoke-favorite, "Somalia's Romeo And Juliet". A contractual dispute led to Sammi's departure from Capital to Warner, where she then had her first chance to break into the huge mandarin market. Her first mandarin album, "Worthwhile", was an instant success, selling more than 300,000 copies in Taiwan alone. Despite a talented group of new female singers emerging in Hong Kong, Sammi Cheng continues to stay at the top.
