Andy Lau Tak Wah Biography
Andy Lau Tak Wah started his career in Hong Kong main TV production company, TVB.
After graduated from TVB acting school, Andy Lau was given chances in some supporting cast before landing his first major role in “Hunting” (1982).
Andy’s breakthrough came later in 1983 where he starred in the ever popular Wuxia drama, “The Return of the Condor Heroes.” Andy Lau instantly becomes an Asian superstar since then.
Andy Lau was also given chances on the big screen, and his first major success in movies came in 1985 with “Unwritten Law,” with another 2 sequels made. From then on Andy has made over 100 movies in his still running acting career.
There are good and bad in those 100+ films; especially when Andy Lau was young, lots of his movies are commercial basis and could be pretty lousy production. Only in recent years that Andy began to be pickier in movies, and the qualities are more guaranteed.
It was also in 1985 that Andy Lau released his first album, but it took him a few years to be recognized as an established singer.
In the 1990s, Andy Lau together with Jackie Cheung, Leon Lai and Aaron Kwok were crowned ‘4 Heavenly Kings of Cantopop’, and dominated the Hong Kong music arena until late 90s.
Andy Lau has won many musical awards in his career, but his luck with movie awards is not as splendid. His first major acting award only came in 2000, as Best Actor in Hong Kong Film Festival with movie “Running Out of Time.”
Andy Lau has always been eager to prove himself as a good actor rather than a popular idol; and after a few years of disappointment, Andy Lau finally won the prestigious Golden Horse Award in 2004 for his performance in “Infernal Affairs 3.″
Andy Lau had previously invested in movies production in early 90s but met with failure; in the past couple of years he started his own production firm again to fund new Asian directors with their movie projects, and has achieved decent success so far.
Why I like Andy Lau Tak Wah
I think Andy Lau is one of the best role models in Asian entertainment world. I don’t think Andy is a talented artist, but he works hard all these years to become a good one.
Andy’s hardworking and professionalism has always been praised by the press, and he is always polite and well mannered in public appearance, while keeping a healthy lifestyle.

Andy should have manned up long ago in admitting his relationship to Carol but give him this: he did date and eventually marry a woman who was close to his age and not some 20-something, unlike Leon Lai or Aaron Kwok. In that sense, he’s not shallow.

lol.. andy lau would have been better off marrying a younger gal if he wanted babies!
stupid bastard waited until his old lady is old to have babies by insemmination,no less– now,that’s a joke!
what’s more– the joke’s on them as they lied lied lied about their relationship!
serves them right!

ANDY LAU CAN NOW APOLOGISE ALL HIS WANTS TO HIS FANS– but fact remains– he NEVER had respect for them!
hence, why all the lying! he just wanted to be adored and get rich!~

Got the biggest joke of my life. can’t believe such a person was at AF . we dislike it. Let it stew in it’s own pathetic misery. Ignore it. It is a loser. Don’t give it anymore attention because it
thrives on attention. We are hopefully rid of it. Ignore it.
It is paying the piper right now. Probably crying it’s pathetic miserable life to sleep because it did not get what it wanted. I almost feel sorry for it but only almost.

All it’s lies have been exposed. The whole forum world knows who it is. All the chinese sites know who it is. There have been hundreds of emails sent around about it and downloads from posts that it made at various sites.
I got a photo of it leaving a cafe with computer in hand. I got about 10 diffent photos of it. It looks ugly and pathetic. It is pathetic
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:46 am
hey lindsey– the only lies exposed are of those made by ANDY LAU!!
too bad– some of his admirers actually believed his LIES– but ultimately it’s Andy who is the utter jerk & joke– no one else!
life goes ON.. and who gives a fig about ANDY LAU?!
September 3rd, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Okay, give it a rest, will ya? You know who she is and you have pictures of her. Take your vendetta directly to her. You’re making this Andy forum about her. Take your advice and stop talking about her. Not everybody gives a rat’s ass.
September 3rd, 2009 at 11:36 pm
know ‘who she is??’ oh yeah??? BET YOU DON’T!!!
ha.. ha.. that’s a bigger joke than ANDY LIES!
September 4th, 2009 at 4:31 am
Every member of the asian sites by now have an email on film buff truth serum and all her aliases. Only about 5 percent of AF members are left now to know exactly who this lying looney is. Hey, she is ugly with her four eyes. She looks like a dog.
Celebrity hound and chaser. I too finished with the it
September 4th, 2009 at 4:46 am
whoa.. how you guys are so obssessed with FILM BUFF/TRUTH Serum.
so damn flattering.. THAT’S WHAT’S CALLED.. STATR QUALITY…. love her or hate her(who cares) CANNOT BE IGNORED!!
actually,I’m up for a big part.. so who cares about this and Andy Lau..lol.. I’ll be busy!
September 4th, 2009 at 4:52 am
actually, I did stated t his.. I didn’t see any reason why Andy should lie– as he had a lot to lose if caught lying..
well.. well.. he wasn’t– isn’t that smart.. he’s caught lying?! he’ll have to pay for it’s consequences..
what a silly,stupid bastard.. no other way of putting it.. the way he cultivated his career– it is dependent on his fan base.
his career as he knew it is pretty much over.

A big part in the loonie house, Smebody call the men in the white coats. They can give the star quality treatment at the loonie house.
The last time Andy said he is not married was well over a year ago before he actually got married. He just kept his marriage to himself. Keeping something quiet is a lot different than lying.
Unlike some people who come and delusionally lie about every aspect of their lives.

i don’t see why you guys are so hard on kristina/ film buff/ oscar/ truth serum.
If she said she has a house in Canada, one in England, one in France, one in Italy and one or two in the States I believe her. I believe her when she said she is an actress and a director. I believe her when she said she has all this firsrt hand knowledge on Andy lau
I certainly believe her when she said she has met Rock Hudson walking down the streets of LA with his boyfriend in the seventies
I personally believe she is a member of SAG and she worked on the 1990 film Indecent Proposal
The reason why I believe all this is I know someone who works directly in the Sag President office and I got them to check with membership to see if she is a member., or NOT.

I also believe a young woman who has a very theatrcal and creative imagination can actually be in the circles of Andy Lau and know he does not know Carol Zhu, has never met Zhu, never dated her. Read all that Film Buff/ truth serum/ oscar has written here about Andy Lau concerning Zhu and you will see that film buff/ truth serum has never told a lie a day in her life.
She may be just in her mid twenties but you MUST believe her when she said she modeled in England and saw Rock Hudson in La in the seventies. You have to Believe her or NOT.
Despite the fact that some celebrities make millions a year and are A list celebs, they are only owning a house or two. I believe a celebrity chaser who left home and move to La with brig dreams and the clothes in her car can own all this at such a young unemployed age. After all, film buff/ kristina/ truth serum has never lied in her life. She said so in this very forum so you are compelled to believe her or NOT.
September 5th, 2009 at 6:47 am
FILM BUFF/ TRUTH SERUM / KRISTINA SAID EMPHATICALLY THAT CAROL ZHU NEVER MET ANDY LAU, DOES NOT KNOW , POSES BY HIS HOUSE, GETS ALL THESE TABLOIDS TO LINK HER, ZHU’S NAME TO ANDY. LOOKHOW IT TURNED OUT. FROM THE MOMENT FILM BUFF/ TRUTH SERM WAS FORCING THE TRUTH DOWN OUR THROATS FOR YEARS NOW, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE …NOOOOOOOTTTT
Film buff may be only 26 but she has dated actors who are in their 60’s 70’s who the queen knighted. You definitely have to believe that or NOOTT.
For a dreamer with a very creative imagination, film buff has buff that into motin by directing a big A list Hollywood director himself. She has worked with a lot of A list actors and actresses and now is a big star herself. You better believe that or ….NOT.
September 5th, 2009 at 7:02 am
I will let the whole forum world know they have to ease up on this film buff kristina , truth serum person because she has never told a lie in her life, yes she said so, you have to believe that or ….NOT
There are no credits for a 7 or 8 year old Kristina in Indecent Proposal which came out in 1990 but film buff/ kristina said she was there in the movie. You all better believe her or ….NOT
It’s good you can laugh at yourself because we are laughing at you too, ha ha ha ha!!!!.
We will see you see you at the movies or on the tv?????!!!!! DEFINITELY NNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTT
September 6th, 2009 at 2:01 am
