Yeah i agree with linda, i liked that greenish blouse the most too. I wonder if she's going to take Gigi's place as the Madamoiselle representative or something? She sure has the looks and body image! I'm so proud of her, she's made it far. :)
She was born in BC so it would only make sense that she speaks fluent English. It's not like she was born overseas and moved to Canada.... and those Canadians you say don't speak English fluently would only mean they're not born in Canada.
@Horrible28 Hm ... perhaps not very much, just simple American accent. But her tone and manner of speak is strongly american style. ( eg. "youno....youno....youno", always repeat the last word of a sentence. etc.)
why do people always think speaking fluent English (like native speaker) is nice??? i mean she is a Chinese and wasn't born there; as long as she speaks okay English, that should be good already...
What is a Canadian accent? British? Italian? Quebec French? It's equivalent of saying a person has an America accent as people speak with different accents depending on where they are raised and resided e.g. States, Counties, etc.
i agree ! English is just like any other language , a tool for communicating with other people. As long as other people can understand u , there is nothing to fuss about.
And she learn english from me and she earn money to let me study in England and I just came back from england I'm in Singapore so I should go back to hong kong maybe:)
You know it's pretty hard learning a language. When you don't speak one for a while you tend to loose sight of it. I'm glad that I still have family that still speak Cantonese. A lot of my younger cousins don't speak it at all because they didn't want to learn it. Linda is amazing and she speak perfectly fine. P.S. Heart of Greed was my favorite. That's when i fell in love with her acting! :D
In my opinion, she has the BEST English out of all the HK actresses b/c of the simple fact that she was born in Canada where English is the language spoken.
@darl910 So what are you implying here? You said that going to a good university does not mean a thing unless you are doing a good course? Tell me what course is not a "Good" course to you? Are you infering that theres inferior courses then? what rights do you have to belittle a certain course?
@darl910 1. Saying the way she speak is not canadian standard but hongky standard (She is born and raised in canada, top student in school and also displayed highly adequate english speaking skill yet you condemn her... why? because shes chinese?)- Racist 2. Saying that only professional courses are considered "something" (So business, IT, Comm student are NOTHING as infered by you then?)- Narrow minded 3. 1 + 2 = ignorant
Her english accent is perfect. I can tell she was born in US or canada, not in HK. Just wonder if she learned Chinese when she was young or at time she got into HK show biz? I see she speaks Cantonese and mandarin well which I am impress. If she can read or even write then very admire on her talent.
ha? You go to school and learn English in US/Canada, then when you go home after school, your family speaks Chinese, it's not that hard to learn all that. Writing is harder to learn, but there are Chinese school in USA + Canada.
and "law" are just examples, but the point doesn't lie in the examples. the point is, which i think what holypredator is trying to stress from your ignorant statement is that, WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK THAT THERE ARE GOOD COURSES OR BAD COURSES IN UNIVERSITIES? It's true that there are some courses which have higher requirement than other courses, but each courses have their own difficulties and contributions towards the world, and therefore, it is disrespectful of you to insult other courses.
you mean if I compare her to pure Canadian chinese girls? but Linda is a pure Cdn chinese girl too....did u mean pure in the sense of those chinese girls who can ONLY speak english and not chinese?then yes, I agree she is not that type of style. even without opening her mouth to speak, she look honger more than CBC. And it isn't really fair to compare her to Fala, who just went abroad to the states for a few years. 1000x better.....edison chen's english is up to par with those 2 as well i think
oh, gosh. your comments are really bad, aren't they? There's no need for her to you know, speak squeaky perfect english, just as long as she can get her message sent across to others. Why emphasize on speaking perfect english? And also, it really IS IGNORANT of you to think that there's no use studying in university unless you take a good course such as medicine and law. What's your definition of "good" course? Arent all courses in universities all good? I understand that your "medicine" and
Does it really matter where she is from or what accent she has? She's just conducting a interview, as long as you can understand what she is communicating, it's all good.
no offense though she sounds like she is having an interview with her teacher. hehe. What she's talking is ermmm.. (for lack of words) but I think if this is the first time someone has seen her, they can't tell much how she is like. I mean, she is much more than this.
guess you don't know too many actress in hk then... coz there are a lot of them that are born and raised in English speaking country. UK, the States and Canada as well.
how about Fala Chen? :) I love both of them. But still think Fala looks more appealing and sounds more convincing when she talks. I'm talking about their ways of speaking rather than their english.
i love snsd and i love linda but can you guys shut up about kpop / tiffany / f(x) here? She is a top star in Hong Kong and I hate it when people bring in other famous people/. like no
I think she's losing that familiar, really rhythmic cadence you get when you constantly speak English. Purely speaking Cantonese/Mandarin and not being around English-speakers can do that to you, but once you get back to conversing with native speakers, then it should feel natural again.
She seems very nervous for the interview and sometimes stumble on words. Maybe speaking english is rusty being in HK for so long. I wish that she didn't say that her physique is more like "white" and use Caucasian instead. "shocking colors"? hehe, I'm guessing she means dynamic strong colors.
I love Linda! But guys, it's not that amazing that she can speak fluent english... Most tvb stars are born and raised in HONG KONG, hence their english is obviously broken.
Wow!
She is very attractive
Yeah i agree with linda, i liked that greenish blouse the most too. I wonder if she's going to take Gigi's place as the Madamoiselle representative or something? She sure has the looks and body image! I'm so proud of her, she's made it far. :)
She grew up in Canada and English is her first language
That's why she speaks so fluently
she's chinese canadian. she was born and raised in vancouver canada and moved to hong kong
what i dont understand is that she was born and raised in canada so you cant really criticise her english its perfect!!!
Yep, Edison Chen's english is very good too.
wow... she has a good english accent
i don't understand why people here are criticising her english, she's an actress not a teacher gosh..
she was born and raise in canada for 15 years people :D of course she speaks english well x]
@Horrible28 She was Miss Vancouver at the Miss Chinese International Pageant
She was born in BC so it would only make sense that she speaks fluent English. It's not like she was born overseas and moved to Canada.... and those Canadians you say don't speak English fluently would only mean they're not born in Canada.
WOW her english is so good!!
she born in canada and she grew up in canada untill 20
I no tht
@Horrible28 She's from Vancouver, Canada. I'm Canadian and that's how we speak.
@Horrible28 Her parents aren`t even Hongers. Her parents were born in China, and grew up in Vietnam.
@Horrible28 Hm ... perhaps not very much, just simple American accent. But her tone and manner of speak is strongly american style. ( eg. "youno....youno....youno", always repeat the last word of a sentence. etc.)
Wow, her English is good. I love her singing and acting. She's great and beautiful.
she just damn cute
why do ppl from hk criticize others when it comes to english? seriously is it really that important to discuss what accent she has?
Her voice becomes more husky and soft when speaking english
i rlly like her english
why do people always think speaking fluent English (like native speaker) is nice??? i mean she is a Chinese and wasn't born there; as long as she speaks okay English, that should be good already...
What is a Canadian accent? British? Italian? Quebec French? It's equivalent of saying a person has an America accent as people speak with different accents depending on where they are raised and resided e.g. States, Counties, etc.
I love how Linda Chung is so fluent in English! :D
She does indeed have more of a white girl figure. I think her shoulders are broad compared to the typical Asian girls. I love her!
Wow! She speaks the language beautifully with clear articulation, who cares what accent she has?
I don't really find a significant difference between canadian accent vs US accent...they're both pretty much the same when compare to british accent..
WELL considering she has been living in Hong Kong for so long now, it's not surprising that her english isn't as good as a pure canadian.
i agree ! English is just like any other language , a tool for communicating with other people. As long as other people can understand u , there is nothing to fuss about.
And she learn english from me and she earn money to let me study in England and I just came back from england I'm in Singapore so I should go back to hong kong maybe:)
she doesn't have a younger sister...she's the youngest.
You know it's pretty hard learning a language. When you don't speak one for a while you tend to loose sight of it. I'm glad that I still have family that still speak Cantonese. A lot of my younger cousins don't speak it at all because they didn't want to learn it. Linda is amazing and she speak perfectly fine.

@u900ck I thought she start acting at much younger age?
is there a source for this clip? or at least the full-length video?
She does not have American accent, because I from u.s. I am not sure about Canada accent.
@jungminyee I like them both ^^
@darl910
So what are you implying here? You said that going to a good university does not mean a thing unless you are doing a good course? Tell me what course is not a "Good" course to you?
Are you infering that theres inferior courses then? what rights do you have to belittle a certain course?
is there a full-length version of the interview?
She is the female version of Wu Zun. Sometimes she does look like him.

Just wonder if she learned
Chinese when she was young or at time she got into HK show biz?
I see she speaks Cantonese and mandarin well which I am impress. If she can read or even write then very admire on her talent.

+nancy Ngo nothing to do with english accent .if not familiar with cantonese,nobody can star

Aw yeah representing us CBC's!!

I'm her younger sister
She talk always move her hand
Wow, never thought I'd see a top comment like this on this kind of video! Tiffany is my kpop bias
i am telling that you are incorrect...Linda born in Canada....she is a CBC...but..anyway, she is nice...in every single way..
Does it really matter where she is from or what accent she has? She's just conducting a interview, as long as you can understand what she is communicating, it's all good.
why is everyone so impressed with her speaking her first language? lol
no offense though she sounds like she is having an interview with her teacher. hehe. What she's talking is ermmm.. (for lack of words) but I think if this is the first time someone has seen her, they can't tell much how she is like. I mean, she is much more than this.
guess you don't know too many actress in hk then... coz there are a lot of them that are born and raised in English speaking country. UK, the States and Canada as well.
how about Fala Chen? :) I love both of them. But still think Fala looks more appealing and sounds more convincing when she talks. I'm talking about their ways of speaking rather than their english.
@bmb007 How do you know Linda can speak Vietnamese ?
鍾嘉欣是在初中已經開始在加拿大讀書...整個中學時期都是在加拿大生活
陳法拉差不多在高中時期才去美國生活吧...兩者不能相比吧
Linda's english is very fluent unlike some :)
i really like the canadian accent! but unfortunately i have the UK accent :(
i love snsd and i love linda but can you guys shut up about kpop / tiffany / f(x) here? She is a top star in Hong Kong and I hate it when people bring in other famous people/. like no
dam her english is better than mine and I am abc
this is nottt an American accent
I think she's losing that familiar, really rhythmic cadence you get when you constantly speak English. Purely speaking Cantonese/Mandarin and not being around English-speakers can do that to you, but once you get back to conversing with native speakers, then it should feel natural again.
She sure know how to speak Vietnamese! like Michelle Phan
She seems very nervous for the interview and sometimes stumble on words. Maybe speaking english is rusty being in HK for so long. I wish that she didn't say that her physique is more like "white" and use Caucasian instead. "shocking colors"? hehe, I'm guessing she means dynamic strong colors.
you mean not for a caucasian? this would be very good for a canadian, unless you meant sounding like a caucasian girl
makes me think of Snsd Tiffany ahhaha. dont misunderstand . I'm not comparing them.
dafuq? many hk actresses are from western countries, not only linda
She sounds LIke f(x) Krystal >-< ! Dont bash me , not comparing them but they are greattt :)
I love Linda!
But guys, it's not that amazing that she can speak fluent english... Most tvb stars are born and raised in HONG KONG, hence their english is obviously broken.
As good english as mine wow
she canadian...well duh lol
Proud to be Canadian, eh?
