Niki Chow Lai-Kei was born on August 30, 1979. Her older sister is Kathy Chow Man-Kei, a model and girlfriend of singer Alex To Tak-Wai. Initially reluctant to enter the entertainment industry, she nonetheless ended up following in her sister’s footsteps when she encountered a talent scout on the streets. She first appeared in some commercials and print ads before making the transition to movies. Chow is currently the first and only contract actor signed under director Joe Ma Wai-Ho. Some of films she has appeared in are Feel 100% II (2001) and Fighting For Love (2001), both directed by Ma. She was nominated for Best New Artist at the 2001 Hong Kong Film Awards for her role in Dummy Mommy Without a Baby. (Yinique 2003)
