Biografi
Bernice was born in Prince Rupert, British Columbia (Canada). In 2001, she entered the Miss Chinese International Paegeant, a beauty contest organized by TVB. She is also the winner of Miss Chinese Vancouver 2000. Bernice attended the University of British Columbia prior to winning. She won the judges over with her beautiful dancing which is what she is known for by some Hong Kongers. After winning the pageant, she signed a contract with Hong Kong's leading TV company, TVB. She had initially refused a contract to pursue a university education, but eventually decided to with the support of her peers.
Bernice is heavily rumoured to be dating fellow TVB actor Moses Chan after their realistic portrayal as a couple in the TVB series Love Bond, and subsequently in the series Healing Hands III. The pair won the Best On-Screen Couple Award for the former series at the 2006 Astro Wah Lai Toi Drama Awards. The two actors are frequently invited to attend commercial functions and launches as a pair due to the perceived popularity of such a coupling. However neither actor has yet to confirm whether they are in a relationship or not.
Kerjaya
Bernice's debut inVirtues of Harmony as "Wong Yee" (Joey) drew a favourable reception from the audience. She was initially criticised for her lack of fluency in Cantonese, the lingua franca of Hong Kong. However this slowly decreased with the advent of her popularity. Bernice has also credited her father, who moved to Hong Kong with her in pursuit of a career with TVB, for helping her with the cantonese dialogue and scripts. Bernice does not speak mandarin.
Bernice is known as "Princess" in Hong Kong due to her role in the TVB series Virtues of Harmony. She is also a singer in TVB's new female compilation album "金牌女兒紅" (Lady In Red) with her song "實情" (Into Thin Air) for which she received 2 awards. She sang the themesongs for "凶城計中計" (The Slicing of the Demon) entitled "還用在意嗎" (Do You Still Need to Care) as well as "舞動全城" (Steps) entitled So in Love with You, both of which also featured her as the leading actress. Bernice also sang the subthemes to "心花放" (Love Bond, which was a collaboration between her and the other three main leads of the series, namely Michael Tao, Kenix Kwok and Moses Chan; and "突圍行動" (The Brink of Law) entitled "分手" (Break Up) which can also be found on the abovementioned Lady In Red album.
Bernice emerged as a dark horse candidate by snagging the #2 spot amongst TVB's top-earning artists of 2006, mostly due to her numerous endorsement contracts. She has also received a newcomer award (新人薦場飆星獎) from one of the most important awards ceremony in the Hong Kong Entertainment Industry, the JSG awards (十大勁歌金曲頒獎典禮).
