Rui En swept the online awards at last week’s Star Awards Show 1 with two triumphant wins in the Favourite Female Character and Favourite On-Screen Couple categories. And last night, the actress added two new trophies to her mantelpiece: Best Actress and her 8th Top 10 Most Popular Female Artiste award.

While both awards hold equal weight and importance in the actress’ eyes, she was particularly delighted to bring home Best Actress – for the second time—for her turn as Hu Xiaoman in Unriddle 2. Beaming ear to ear as she called Xiaoman her “favourite character throughout my entire showbiz career” and one that “means a lot” in her backstage interview with xinmsn, Rui En also thanked her onscreen partner, Chen Liping, for her support and guidance in the show.

“She taught me a lot during the filming of this show. Unriddle 2 is a very emotionally heavy show and we’d encourage each other on set and even crack jokes amongst ourselves to relax. I’m really appreciative of what she has done because without her, all of us wouldn’t be able to do a good job in this show,” she said.

Rui En also gave a shoutout to fellow Best Actress nominee Cynthia Koh, dubbed one of the hot favourites for her role in Show Hand, and said, “Cynthia did a really good job too. I’d like to tell her to keep working hard. This award should be shared with everyone [Best Actress nominees] because all of us put in efforts to bring our onscreen characters to life.”
