Template:Infobox Chinese-language singer and actor Kym Ng (simplified Chinese: 钟琴; traditional Chinese: 鐘琴; pinyin: Zhōng Qín, born Ng Kwee Khim Chinese: 黄桂琴; pinyin: Huáng Guìqín) is a Singaporean actress and television host with MediaCorp.
Career
Ng was previously a flight stewardess with Singapore Airlines and began her show business career as a singer.[1] Subsequently, she joined the MediaCorp's predecessor Television Corporation of Singapore in 1995 and switched to acting and hosting. She became known to audiences as host of the popular infotainment programme City Beat alongside Pan Lingling, Lina Ng, Sharon Au and Bryan Wong. In 2001, she left MediaCorp and joined SPH MediaWorks. But after four years, SPH MediaWorks merged with MediaCorp and Ng was transferred back to MediaCorp.
Although bilingual, Ng often is most often seen on Chinese language programmes on Channel 8 and Channel U and is known for her direct connection with the audience and her bubbly nature. She often hosts "food reviews" and variety shows. Since returning to MediaCorp, Ng has enjoyed success and has hosted more than 150 shows since starting her television career. She is also known as one of the Hosting Queens (综艺阿姐) of MediaCorp.
In 2005, Ng was approached by director Wee Li Lin to star in the latter's film, Gone Shopping. Her performance was stated by the Straits Times as "(Kym) Ng is a revelation here. Her role Clara, who could have been a self-indulgent bore of a character, is beguilingly shy, naively yearning and sweetly forlorn."
The film took two years to complete (June 2005 to July 2007). Ng was quoted on U-weekly magazine that she was mentally prepared that the film would not follow through. The principal shoot of the film commenced in December 2006 through to March 2007.
In 2011, Ng hosted the highly acclaimed variety show Love on a Plate. The programme won the Best Variety Programme award and granted Ng her third Best Variety Show Host win at the Star Awards 2011 held on 24 April.[2] It also won a "highly commended" nomination for Best Reality Programme at the 2011 Asian Television Awards.[3]
Ng bagged the coveted Best Variety Show Host award in the Star Awards 2013 for her work in Jobs Around the World. She now ties Mark Lee and Sharon Au in receiving this particular award four times.
Ng has also secured her first Best Actress nomination in Star Awards 2013 as the repressed Luo Na in "It Takes Two".
Personal life
Ng comes from a working-class family of four children.[1] In 2009 she secretly married her long-time boyfriend at a simple ceremony overseas. She is known for zealously safeguarding her privacy and rarely discloses her private life or personal details to the media.[4] Ng also disclosed that she does not intend to have children because caring for a child in the long run is too much of a hassle.[5]
Ng was educated at River Valley High School and did pre-university studies (A Levels) at Tanjong Katong Secondary School.[6]
