Ann Mui


Ann Mui Oi-fong was a singer and actress.

Background

Born in 12 May 1959 in Hong Kong, she experienced much hardship in her childhood. Her father died when she was very young and her mother Tam Mei-kam raised her brothers and sisters alone.
Like her sister Anita, she has a dramatic contralto singing voice, which is a rarity in Chinese pop music. Despite not being twins, both Ann and Anita's singing voices were strikingly similar, with the only way to tell them apart was the hand in which they hold the microphone. She is best remembered for her supporting roles in many movies, especially Jackie Chan's Police Story 2.
Mui died of cervical cancer, which was proven to be genetic as Anita later died for the same reason. She died in St.Paul Hospital, Causeway Bay. Her ashes were interred in Shang Sin Chun Tong, Kowloon Tong.

Personal Life

In 1991, she married the father of her two sons, Poon Lap-Tak, whom she and her family was estranged from until her death in 2000.
