Kingdom joined showbiz in 1982, and was contracted to ATV. However, she in the mid '90s to join rival broadcaster TVB.
The actress, who described herself as the “mad dog of the Northeast”, said: “I will bite people. I’m more gossipy, so I collected a lot of blackmail material, and many people were scared of me”.She revealed that when she was at ATV, she did not shy away from speaking her mind, and offended some of the higher-ups there. However, after she jumped ship to TVB, her experience there was so bad, she actually made a trip back to ATV after a week to cry and air out her grievances.
“There was once when I noticed that the hairstyle I was given affected the continuity of the drama I was working on. I told the stylist, and he immediately slammed the hairbrush on the table and said: ‘You style it yourself then.’ Honestly, it was very easy for me to just lose my temper then. I could just slam the table and cuss them out, but after thinking about it, I decided to tolerate it,” Kingdom said.
“I picked up the brush, he didn’t know that I knew how to style hair, so I styled my hair by myself, and then stood up and left,” she recalled.Similarly, in ATV, Kingdom recalled sitting at the make-up corner for over an hour, with no one coming over to help her with her makeup.“From that day on, no one needed to help me with my make-up. Be it eyebrows, colourful eyeshadow, and even drawing stars on my face, I could do it all by myself,” she said.
