Busty Christy Yow quits role as Rose Chan

Malaysian actress Christy Yow has quit her role as the legendary striptease queen Rose Chan in Mei Gui Xiang (The Charming Rose).

She is doing this for her fiance, a 29-year-old Taiwanese she plans to marry soon.

Yow told Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao that she nodded her head when he proposed to her during her trip to visit him in Taiwan last Christmas.

"I have quit my role as Rose Chan. It is quite a pity to let go of that chance because most people have come to know me through this role.

"But I am not quitting my career, I am just putting it aside for time being to be with my fiance," she said, adding that her fiance is currently managing his family's Chinese tea business in China.

She said to respect her fiance, she would not appear too sexy on screen.

Yow said she met him when she attended an acting workshop in Taiwan a year ago and the couple started dating a week later.

"Before this, I wanted to be a career woman and did not want to get married. But now, I found that I can still go for my dream even after marriage.

"He supports me and takes care of me well," she said.

She, however, did not reveal her wedding date.

Yow, a 24-year-old model from Ipoh, is well known for her pair of 36C breasts and has even been nicknamed Malaysian Giant Breasts.

She became popular in Singapore after posing sexily for a male magazine there.

She was then given opportunities to be the spokeperson for several fashion brands and to act in movies including Auntie Lucy Slam Dunk and Love Cuts.

She became the centre of attention after accepting the offer to appear nude in Mei Gui Xiang, which was scheduled to start shooting this year.

Zoe Tay and Christy Yow to undress for new movie

In the name of filmmaking, the two female stars of new local movie Love Cuts will be challenging themselves with bold scenes that are set to ensure a fair amount of attention on the movie when it opens in the last quarter of this year.

The Queen of Caldecott Hill, Zoe Tay, will star in the leading role opposite veteran Hong Kong actor Kenny Ho as a 40-year-old mother battling terminal breast cancer, while buxomy Malaysian model Christy Yow plays a top lingerie model who has to remove her breasts after being afflicted with the illness.

Jointly produced by Clover Films and the Health Promotion Board, the movie hopes to encourage women to go for regular breast screenings.

Zoe, acting in a feature film nine years after her last outing in The Tree, will appear in a few scenes where co-star Kenny will bathe her sickly character. She said about the Hong Kong star, "I've watched his shows since young (laughs). He's in top condition now, and is very easy to get along with."

In Love Cuts, her character has to shave her head due to chemotherapy, but the 42-year-old did not go bald or pull off a 'Cynthia Koh' (in Ch 8 drama, Stepping Out). Instead, she will have to go through more than three hours of transformation in the makeup room.

The evergreen actress said that she had intended to shave off her hair, but can no longer go ahead with it due to an agreement to star in new Ch 8 drama Lost & Found.

Perhaps it was because her starring fees were not high enough to warrant the sacrifice?

"No! But to be honest, shaving my head is not without its struggle, because it takes time to grow my hair again and other work will be affected."

Pulling off an even more daring stunt is the sexy siren Christy. She will appear nude in a bed scene with a male actor, whose identity is still under wraps.

In the movie, Christy's character undergoes mastectomy, once again putting the spotlight on the 36C bustline of the voluptuous Ipoh native. The exasperated one could only muster, "If everyone feels that this is the focus, there's nothing I can do."

Production for Love Cuts will begin next week.

Love Cuts is scheduled to open this October. The movie will be distributed by Golden Village.

"The cover looks amazing! I certainly look amazing - awesome," she
said.

Well-known for her 36C breasts, the 23-year-old Ipoh lass had wanted
to look sexy and a little "mysterious" in the photographs.

"Someone just asked if I always have to look so sexy in all my photos
and will I not be afraid to be typecast? I guess not! I wanna do
things that I still can manage now," she wrote in her blog.

Yow told Lianhe Wanbao that she trusted the crew for their
professionalism.

She said only the photographer, hair stylist, make-up artist and her
manager were in the studio during the photo shooting session.

"Although all of them are men, they are those whom I trust very much
and work closely with," she said.
