Sammi Cheng's Asthma Condition Resurfaces; Side Effects Causing Swollen Mouth and Face

MING PAO - Sammi Cheng has been plagued by asthma recently it's been affecting her work. Yesterday Sammi was scheduled to attend a promotional activity, but because of asthma, she had to cancel the event. Sammi also canceled her trip to this year's MTV Music Awards in Singapore and has not decided whether to attend a movie promotion in Taiwan. Sammi also failed to attend a promotional event for Max Factor, in which she is the company spokesmodel. Her absence resulted in a loss of HKD 150,000 for the company. In 2002 because of climate changes, Sammi's asthma condition resurfaced, and now has a swollen face and mouth. Sammi's manager Kwok Kai-Wah says Sammi is now resting at home. When asked if Sammi will leave Hong Kong to receive treatment, Kwok says Sammi is busy with recording an album, and will let her determine her own resting schedule. Sammi has always had asthma but her condition has always been in control. Until the end of 2002 when Sammi went to the mountainside to film a movie with Louis Koo, because the climate was too cold, her asthma condition resurfaced. Sammi stopped working until she recovered. In 2002, Sammi also failed to attend an autograph signing party with hundreds of fans at a Mongkok plaza. And when it was time for her to film a commercial with Aaron Kwok for Pepsi, she also had to bail out because of asthma. In 2003, Sammi kept to herself and stayed home to care for her health. In November, Sammi traveled to Guangzhou for a promotional event, but was seen to have a swollen face. It's believed that it's a side effect from asthma medication

:( :(

"Sammi's condition is quite serious. She used to only use inhalers for her asthma, however this time she needs a breathing machine. The asthma attack was due to the recent cold weather.Meanwhile, Sammi still have 1 more song to record for her new Cantonese album, due to be release end of February. Since Sammi is sick, she will try to find time this few days to finish recording the song. Sammi's voice is not 100%, however is still OK. Sammi does not want to delay the release of her album."

*thx to sammi's forum by RiPleY*

poor sammi *sob sob* :( :( hope she will recover soon...wish sammi all the best...i can't imagine she is using breathing machine and also must need time to record a song in sick condition...haiz...

OMG that's so sad! I hope she gets better! SHe is quite the workaholic. Err damn asthma! She seems to have lost a lot of weight from it too. At least compared to how she used to look when she first started out. But I can't believe she would even try to record the last song in her condition. Just for that I'm definately buying her upcoming album.

*From ruby's newsgroup, hollowman*

If u notice she used thin clothes to reflect a summer "feel" (there are 2 versions-summer and winter). The scene of the shooting is by a lakeside in a secluded area in HK. U can imagine how cold it was while she used thin clothes...and her face looks more puffy in this CM...and she looks pale in this CM...i guess she's not healthy already...then....haiz...got asthma attack :(

OMG you're right. She does look pretty bad in it and the weather seems to be just freezing! She has to watch out for her health sometimes over her career. Ahhh why does she do these things if she knows she can get sick ><

Well I'll keep her in my prayers too. I hope everything turns out ok :(

Yay! I'm happy for her :mrgreen:

Keep me posted on any news about her. I really hope she recovers quickly. Hey is she starring in any new movies? Oh yea speaking of movies I just saw "the death curse" the other day. Twins movies get so pointless sometimes. At least some scare scenes were ok but the plot sucked. *sigh* I'm such a sucker for Gil. Hahaha

she will be filming 2 movies in the meantime...the one is about murder story (wow) hehe...and another one is with leon lai which has been delayed for more than a year...
she will have summer concert in HK...so i can't imagine how busy she is...somemore she's not really healthy nowadays...her hectic schedule scares me alot mah :(

Twins is booming now...they have been filming too much nowadays...i never watch their movies...my friend told me they are not really perfect, are they?

Well their movies certainly aren't anything to re-watch but it's mainly hype and good marketting by EEG. They're sort of like the HK Morning Musume. I think their best movies is when they're not together. I'm not sure if it's because they don't get along all that well or the storyline just makes more sense. I liked "My Wife is 18", the one with Ekin Cheung and Charlene. That one actually had a bit of a plot but Twins can get too sassy sometimes and their movies are pretty random like the "Twins Effect".

WHoa I just noticed you have a cool new avatar! ;)

I finally got a chance to see Infernal Affairs III. Just finished it actually. Sammi doesn't come in until the end! And she had like 1 line -_-. Oh well she only got credited for the cameo anyways. Kelly was good though! Anyways as for my review 1 was definately better but III wasn't that bad. Still very intense but the story line isn't as good as the original's.
