Fiona Sit Christian
According to this 7/30/06 article in The Sun, singer-actress Fiona Sit is a Christian. Here’s a translation of the article by Em of TVBSpace News Roundup:
Fiona Sit, Sammul Chan and Francois Huynh were filming for “Cadets on the Beat” yesterday at the pedestrian subway where a real serving police officer was murdered earlier. Having refused to have her character die there previously, Fiona seemed very scared as she filmed, causing [] a string of over ten outtakes. She says: “It was not because of that, I am a Christian and have calmed myself by praying. (Have you brought anything to protect you?) No, it is all just in my heart.” Fiona did not dare to venture anywhere near the staircase where the incident happened, whereas Sammul was very calm about it: “I believe that if I have done no harm to others, then I have nothing to worry about. This is the first time I have been to this subway.”
Although Sit is a Christian, apparently she’s very superstitious about death scenes, at least according to this article from the previous day’s edition of that very same newspaper. The relevant excerpts from TVBSpace News Roundup:
Fiona Sit, Sammul Chan and Michael Tao were filming earlier at Tseung Kwan O for TVB’s new series “Cadets on the Beat” in a cameo scene where Fiona reprises her role to show her character being killed off in action. The scene tells of her character fighting with a criminal in a scene and in order to save Sammul, she takes a bullet and dies. Before the camera, Fiona played out the death scene vigorously, but behind the camera, the superstitious Fiona was quick to ask the crew for a lucky packet.
Having also brought along her own lucky packet, Fiona says that she is very superstitious about these things: “My dad is very superstitious too and he has given me a lucky packet already, just in case TVB don’t give me one so I can just ask them to put some money in it. Originally they had arranged for my character to die where a real police officer had died, but it was too scary and I would not do it there. Take Granville Road, where there was a murder earlier, when I go around the area, I daren’t look around too much.”
In October 2004, there was a article in which Sit mentions that she brings her Bible along with her when she travels because she is afraid of ghosts.
Incidentally, Sammul Chan is also a Christian. Michael Tao, while not a Christian, has appeared in a film called Prison on Fire - Preacher. Francois Huynh is the winner of the 2006 Mr. Hong Kong contest.
