Bonnie Law Ming-Chu 羅明珠

Yesterday in Hong Kong, actress Bonnie Law passed away at the age of 47, presumably from a heart attack. Law rose to fame in the mid-1980s with a series of youth "girls" comedies launched by Raymond Wong Pak-Ming, but after her first success she left cinema to finish her studies in Canada. She returned to Hong Kong only in 1993, but never regained her former success. In recent years she worked in finance and was planning to shoot a mainland internet series. What caused the attack is unclear, but acquaintances hint that in her struggle with excess weight Law often turned to diet pills.
