What? Winnie Leung as a life coach? Coaching whom?
What is with choosing Miss Winnie Leung as a life coach? Is it that she is so successful in life that we would need her to coach other women who are unable to find a man who would stay with her for life?
Just examine the labels at her blog:
"bling bling, BMW, Chanel, Clinique, Facebook, Grand Hyatt, Hermes[1], HRT, il colpo, iphone, Kenji Ng, L'Oreal Paris, Lane Crawford, Louis Vuitton, LV, M.A.C. Porsche, Purpleland, Sassou Cosmo, Sex and the City, Tod's, TVB, Ultima II, Winnie Leung, Younger by Design, YSL" (There are another 19 Chinese tags) [2]
If these are representatives of what she is most interested in, I do have my reservation for her to be anybody's life coach...
Not that I am skeptical to the discipline of aesthetic medicine - but if she has nothing more than makeup, facials and aesthetic medicine to offer to her clients, one would really need to think if she is really some target goals that these five ladies in the show should really be after... (not that she's married, anyways... did I say the show is called "bride wannabes"?)
To some, the show means good entertainments for 10 weekdays.
To some, the show means an often undesired reminder for those who are still not in a relationship.
To some, the show means the day of judgement for ladies who are still not in a relationship by the age of 30.
To some, it is a joke.
[1] I really do not see the need to type the letter e with a grave accent - does that make it look nicer? Perhaps. To be honest, typing the letter with the accent is quite an undertaking for somebody with a keyboard manufactured in Hong Kong - but then who knows - maybe she got a Hermes branded keyboard...

In my opinion, Winnie Leung is not a good role model in any way. I found her superficial and her advice on the show was non-constructive criticism. For her, this was just a really good business opportunity and I am sure she has reaped more benefits than the girls who were on the show.
ReplyDeleteBride Wannabes was an interesting show for me. Having grown up in Sydney, the culture and lifestyle is so different. I was really shocked to find that 20 year old girls were also attending "meet ups" with men because they were afraid of not being in a relationship.
Your footnote [1] made me laugh. Even with an Australian keyboard, I'm not too sure how to add the accent.
Non-constructive criticism has always been standard in Hong Kong. Just look at our newspapers. They can throw thousands of attacks on our government and yet not a single viable suggestion. Not that our government is spectacular, but looking at its efficiency compared with what others have got... I do think they deserve a little bit more appreciation from the media than plain old non-constructive criticism.
DeleteAs for the girls in the show, I think some of them really suffered from the show because of the way TVB edited the conversations which perhaps paint a more colourful picture than it actually is...
keep up the wonderful piece of work, I read few content on this internet site and I think that your weblog is real interesting and has got bands of wonderful information.
