HK ACTRESS AMY YIP OPEN TO ONSCREEN COMEBACK, BUT REFUSE TO BARE HER SKIN ANYMORE
Amy Yip, a notable Category III screen goddess from the ’80s, achieved fame as one of the era’s biggest icons. However, her presence in showbiz waned in the mid-’90s, leading to a prolonged low-profile life. Recently, the actress has made a public appearance, sparking interest in her potential return to the entertainment industry.
In response to queries about a potential comeback, Amy Yip revealed that she has been approached with numerous acting offers. However, she emphasized that she hasn’t found a script or role that aligns with her preferences. Amy expressed openness to the idea of a comeback but asserted that the conditions must be met.
“I’m not against making a comeback, but I will only act if I find a suitable script. I’ve rejected those that want me to play sensual and seductive roles again. I won’t do something that I don’t like,” stated Amy.
“It has to be different from what I used to do in the past; there needs to be room for me to express myself creatively, and the plot is very important,” she explained.
“I think it would be nice to sing too. I feel like I don’t have to stick to acting in movies. Sometimes I’ll sing, other times, I’ll appear in advertisements and also TV dramas. I actually enjoy doing them all,” shared Amy.
