i never considered stephy to have good acting. she’s okay not horrific but not a best actress type. twins on the other hand, both are not bad.
I think Stephy has really improved over the last couple of years. She, Charlene, and Fiona (if she actually gets serious about filming movies again) are the future movie queens of HK.
I think since she’s mostly in movies which I hardly ever watched I wouldn’t know much about her acting wise. However, I did hear a duet either w/the ex or some other guy and I thought her voice was pretty acceptable in comparison to some HK female singers.
