Pre-2007: The days of being ‘7 princesses’

Those were the days when “7 Princesses” were the talk of the town. Labeled as the “Ice Princess”, the association has always been a double-edged sword and understandably, non-conformist Rui En wasn’t comfortable with the labeling.

Still, what doesn’t kill you make you stronger; despite being ranked among the bottom few frequently back then, Rui En has certainly come a long way to her current state now.

Witty Rui En quipped, “who doesn’t love Elsa?” Indeed, now we know why even our young cousins adore Rui En? :p

Pre-2008: Before having a fanclub

Rui En described the years as ‘fuzzy’ and didn’t think she would have any fans or fanclub. We are really thankful to you peeps out there, for quietly supporting Rui En before RBKD came into the picture. Thanks for the love on our behalf :)

A role that got her on everyone’s radar: Metamorphosis (2007)

If each role was a generation, then ASP An Xiaoqian would be the predecessor of our beloved ASP Hu Xiaoman and INSP Ng Tze Keat. When you think of policewoman in local dramas, you think of Rui En. ’nuff said, we are thankful for that.

Post-2008: When RBKD came into her life

This page is diabetic and sugar overloaded. Warning: you may need your insulin shots.

Rui En shared with Toggle that everything changed when RBKD started. Quoting her, “they are everything to me and I’d not be where I am without them. That’s just as simple as that.”

Thanks Rui En, our lives changed when you entered ours too.

LOL at Rui En “complaining” to Toggle that RBKD sabotaged her. Who? What? When?! Read on as she shared more about her RBKD. :)

The role that proved naysayers wrong: Happy Family (2010)

Xiaodong will always be simply special to fans. *wink*

.
The role she gained ‘acting enlightenment’: With You (2010)

Her first ever acting nomination, her first ever “Best Actress” award at Star Awards. Rui En said she was in a daze when she won, so were we. We are just glad and thankful, how Rui En has grown as an actress especially after this role.

.
The role that left everyone shell-shocked with her transformation: A Tale of 2 Cities (2011)

There were days when we were not used to seeing Rui En in heels and now there are days when we wonder how tall her heels have become. Her transformation and acceptance of more feminine appearance is just like her acting career, always changing, improving and open to changes.

Every role is a result of blood, sweat and tears and like reverse-horcrux, a part of every role will always live in Rui En. Just like Ya Le, just like any other role…..

The role in which she won her second and third best actress: Unriddle 2 (2012)

Fans, you get the answer you have been craving for.

Does Rui En want Unriddle 3? The answer is a big ‘Yes’. Read on to see how would she hope Xiaoman’s character would develop.

It is of course a pity, to note the harsh reality that Unriddle 3 is unlikely to happen any time soon (if it will ever happen) due to high cost and budget cuts. Never give up hoping ya?

Shoutout to Unriddle’s producer Paul Yuen and storywriter Phang Kai Yee, what say you? ;)

The first time people saw her in a comedic role: The Dream Makers (2013)

“Crane up, tilt down, zoom in. 最好有点王家卫的feel~”

Everyone loves Fang Tonglin; be it Tonglin on her own or with her bro as Fang Siblings (speaking of which, did you know that RBKD was the one who coined the term when reposting one of their selfies back then?) or with Zhanpeng and Jason. That’s why Tonglin gets the man! :p

From initial scepticism of being an over-the-top performance to eventual well-reception and love for a character so adorable, no wonder Tonglin makes it to Rui En’s Top 3 career-defining roles, after Siqi and Xiaoman.

The first time she crossed over to the dark side: Against The Tide (2014)

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness, hate cannot drive out hate, only love can.”

Who can forget this? Need we even say more?

There are times, most of the time in fact, when we hope that Rui En can be duly recognised for her respective roles with acting awards. But there are roles, not confined nor defined by the rules of awards, but recognised and acknowledged by the yardstick of the common viewer. This is one of those. Always our Best Actress. :)

Where to from now: Rui En’s progression to mature roles

Sure, fans might worry how Rui En has entered the land of no-return after her first ‘aunty’ role in upcoming “If Only I Could…..”

But more than anything else, fans just hope that Rui En gets to try a myriad of roles, defined by their depths and not age. Just like how Rui En do not wish to trap herself to the pigeonhole of being an idol or just become known for a certain type of roles, fans hope that her willingness to try diverse roles can be matched by equally varied range of opportunities too.

Aunty? Woa. Policewoman? Awesome. Goofy? Why not?

As long as you can deliver (and we know you will), by all means, challenge us with your multitude of roles and acting. We have adapted pretty well over the years, haven’t we? :p

So what motivates Rui En and keeps her going today?

Yup, so now Rui En has 2 cats and Bingo has been renamed muffin. Why huh? :p

Rui En claims that reading interviews of actors and actresses she admires as the fuel to keep her passion burning. Thank goodness for these people, hence you are still here in our lives.

Rui En also gave special thanks to many, including “angels sent from God” and her “Hype family” for always being there for her. Indeed. If you are reading this, you know you are included, you have always been there for her. Thank you for that.

Rui En’s legacy: To be able to empower women and young girls

Awards do not define Rui En.

There are those who crave for awards and fame, and there are those who wish to use the awards and fame for greater good.

In Hollywood there’s Leonardo Dicaprio who lent his voice for climate change in his acceptance speech for the coveted golden man trophy he had waited 22 years for.

In Singapore, Rui En shares how she hopes to inspire and empower women and young girls through her acting and everything. Keep it up, girl!

王敏丽 报道

RBKD: Toggle盘点10位来自单亲家庭的艺人，看他们如何反转逆境成为今日红星，其中就包括瑞恩。她17岁时，父母协议离婚，而瑞恩就跟随了父亲，继母与奶奶生活。当初踏入演艺圈是希望感受别人对她的关心与重视，但她逐渐改变这个想法，细心钻研演技，因此在历届《红星大奖》与《亚洲电视大奖》中多次荣获 “最佳女主角”的头衔。

另外，瑞恩不受约束与坚持做自己的态度也得到了多人的敬佩与喜爱，让她成为本地演艺圈独树一格的女演员。

第19届亚洲电视大奖明晚将在金沙展览与会议中心举行。戏剧类最佳男女主角和喜剧类最佳演员中港台三地入围者都前来出席，本地艺人得奖机会黯淡？

天心、李诗韵、翟天临、班铁翔已确定出席，由于他们远道而来，得奖率自然看高一线。

天心以《亲爱的，我爱上别人了》问鼎视后，陈冲、田蕊妮两大劲敌缺席，唯一的本地对手瑞恩人在国外也无法出席，虽然她两年前因拍剧缺席颁奖礼也照样摘奖，这次恐怕不易突围。

When asked on her chances of winning Best Actress at Asian Television Awards 2014, Rui En was not confident but glad that to be nominated alongside A-listers. She also revealed she has no limits to acting in comedies, and hopes for a mother and daughter relationship in a comedy with Chen Liping.

获得亚洲电视大奖的新加坡艺人和节目，有足够的理由感到光耀，因为每个项目的评审以非本地人居多，而且评审过程公正公平公开。亚洲电视大奖主席黄永源接受本报专访时，如此打包票。

评审60人以上

今年步入第19年的亚洲电视大奖，历来颁发约40个奖，下周四（11日）举行的颁奖礼将颁发38个奖。首次接受本地媒体专访的黄永源披露评审过程时说，参与的评审在60人以上，分别来自不同国家和地区的电视制作人和从业人员。每个奖项约5名评审，但每个国家和地区在每一项目有关联（例如来自同一机构）者，不可担任相关项目的评审。评审团中的四分一成员每年也会更换。

50岁黄永源说，本地艺人入围的项目，其评审不能来自同一家电视台，所以新传媒入围的项目，评审并非来自新加坡，极有可能是外地评审。

此外，所有评审都需能操流利的英文，每份参展作品是英语发音或附上英文字幕或以英文书写的节目搞/剧本。

“如果外地评审投票结果，获奖的本地艺人当然应该觉得荣耀。如果不是因为你表现好，为什么别人要投你一票呢？”黄永源说。

评审都没有酬劳或车马费，必须用工作以外的空档看参赛片，都是基于对演艺行业的热忱， 才会自愿义务当评审，所以他们给参赛者打分时，会珍惜自己的声誉认真评评判。

新加坡得奖与受欢迎的落差

亚洲电视大奖没有保留过往的记录，记者翻开本报档案，发现本地艺人从1996年第一届开始便首开纪录。除了2007年即电视媒体刚整合完那年全军覆没之外，每年总有斩获。

不过让人纳闷的是，韩国、日本、中港台各地的娱乐节目发展都不落后本地，为什么在亚洲电视大奖的收获经常不如本地呢？

黄永源说，评审和一般观众的观点和意见未必相同。针对新传媒艺人和节目历年来经常获奖，他说，本地电视台并非亚洲电视大奖的赞助者，所以亚洲电视大奖不会在评审上偏袒他们。

新加坡节目和艺人多次在亚洲电视大奖上获奖，意味他们站在亚洲的巅峰，但无论节目或艺人，都未能在亚洲造成高收视、高度人气，两者有落差，如何解释？

黄永源认为，一个地方节目在外地受欢迎与否，看它如何被推销，未必与节目水准有关。艺人的问题也一样。他说：“像车子，好车未必最好卖。”

参赛者逐年增加

亚洲幅员广阔，文化民情差异性大，有必要办这个奖吗？此外，中港台韩日各有自己的电视奖项，更受当地媒体广泛报道，亚洲电视大奖因为入围者来自五湖四海，在某些地区并不为当地人所熟悉，多少会影响媒体报道的兴趣，以致拉低亚洲电视大奖的影响力，主办者有何对策呢？

黄永源说，亚洲电视大奖的参赛者逐年增加，今年就收到来自14个国家和地区300家机构的近1400件作品报名，大家都希望获得节目制作上的肯定，尤其是常为人忽略的幕后方面。

他指出，每个地区和机构先筛选最优秀作品报名，经过一轮淘汰，剩下的更是最好中的最好。他觉得亚洲电视大奖的权威性已是毋庸置疑。

他透露，亚洲电视大奖颁奖礼这两年都通过新传媒电视5频道和在多国放送的卫视合家欢频道（Star World）播放，今年还多了曼谷电视台，希望透过这种方式吸引更多人关注，提高大奖的知名度。

要吸引观众，邀请艺人出席是最方便的做法。亚洲电视大奖一直都这么做，包括邀请入围者出席，甚至尝试打破只有得奖者才现身的颁奖礼惯例。过去曾有台湾的杨贵媚、李威等入围者出席却没得奖。黄永源说，如果入围艺人不确定得奖就不出席，那他们可能会错过得奖时上台领奖、被更多人认识的机会。

葛米星5度或最佳喜剧演员

葛米星(Gurmit Singh)5度摘最佳喜剧演员奖，收获最丰。

亚洲电视大奖提供本地艺人和外地巨星交手的机会，最轰动的莫过于郭亮和权怡风在2008年打败曾志伟，得最佳娱乐节目主持人奖，还有钟琴2003年在同一奖项打败张小燕。2009年彭耀顺(Adrian Pang) 成为最佳戏剧男主角，手下败将还有凭《花样男子》冒起，如今大红的韩星李敏镐(Lee Min-ho)。

陈哲艺和杨雁雁在金马版奖礼上杨威，一些观众家里没有收费电视的，看不到星和视界都会台的现场直播，就打电话来早报影艺抱怨，说怎么在本地那么光辉灿烂的一天，新传媒完全站不上边，还完全置身事外。

本地艺人在国际舞台上发光，过去十年不少。电视方面，亚洲电视大奖是距离最近的国际舞台，过去受过肯定的有最佳戏剧女主角李锦梅、瑞恩、林慧玲。

然而，本地得奖人似乎并没有因为能见度提高而又更好的成绩，比如因为奖项而参与国际制作或在外地走红。

种种原因都是为什么亚洲电视大奖举行至今18年，公信力与受认可度在亚洲各地，仍有提高空间。这也是它比不上许多区域性电影奖项，如台湾金马奖、亚太影展等奖的地位的原因。
