Proceeds will go toward a proposed museum honoring Mui. Mui died on Dec. 30, 2003, of lung complications(并发症) caused by cervical cancer(子宫癌). She was 40. The Hong Kong native won legions of fans in the Chinese-speaking world with her deep, melancholy voice. Her frequently changing image drew comparisons to Madonna. She also had a distinguished acting career, winning Taiwan's Golden Horse award for best actress in 1988 for her role as a tormented ghost in the movie "Rouge." |
