Last Saturday, Hong Kong actress Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼) drew a massive crowd to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur for the opening of a new restaurant. During an interview with local press, the star spoke about her latest project, returning to Malaysia and more.
The actress recently attended the opening of the first On Lee Noodle Shop outlet in Malaysia at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. As a friend of the brand, Charmaine graced the event to officiate the opening and to meet local fans. Of course, the “The Queen of News” star is no stranger to Malaysia, having filmed her drama “The Heir to the Throne” in many parts of the Klang Valley. As such, many were curious to know if Charmaine is open to filming in KL again.


Charmaine responded gleefully, saying she’ll definitely return to Malaysia to film again if there’s an invitation in the future. The actress also recalled her experience filming in Malaysia, saying, “It’s very comfortable here, with delicious food and beautiful scenery. I also had a lot of fun getting along with the actors.” The 50-year-old also said that Malaysia feels like home to her, saying, “I feel like here is a second Hong Kong.”
The star also spoke about her time in Malaysia so far, saying that she’s been eating non-stop since arriving last Thursday. Among the things she has indulged in so far were durian, satay and chicken rice. The actress, who recently concluded filming for the second season of “The Queen of News”, quipped, “Finally, I don’t have to lose weight so I can eat as much as I want.” The public figure also praised On Lee’s fishball noodles, urging locals to try her childhood dish.


Besides finishing filming for “The Queen Of News 2”, Charmaine also recently finished filming for another drama titled “Themis”. However, the actress revealed that she’s not working on any more projects, saying she wants to take a break. Charmaine said, “I want to calm myself down and see if there are any suitable roles in the future, so I won’t consider new scripts for the time being.”
Charmaine also revealed that her mother is accompanying her on this trip, so the two will take time to enjoy their time together in Malaysia. Whatever their plans are, we hope they make some fun memories while they’re in town.
