[edit] Career
Affectionately known as "Ah-Sheh" by both fans and colleagues, she signed on with the television station in 1998 after competing in 1997's Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant. Charmaine Sheh was named second runner-up in the pageant.
Her career in the early stages was often characterized by her coy, squeaky voice and criticisms of bad acting. However, the actress overcame these challenges and reached her first breakthrough with one of TVB's highest rated dramas in 2000 "Return of the Cuckoo" co-starring Nancy Sit, Julian Cheung and Steven Ma.[1][2]
2006 was one of the most significant points in Charmaine's decade long acting career when she became the first TVB actress in history to walk home with two major acting prizes at the TVB Anniversary Awards - Best Actress and My Favorite Female TV Character for her captivating performance in "Maidens' Vow".[3][4]
Charmaine Sheh is also the first TVB actress to be shortlisted in the semi-finals, of the Best Actress category at the 35th International Emmy Awards in 2007. [5][6]
