Jeanette mentions Biren on i-weekly

Jeanette Aw was interviewed in i-weekly recently (31 May 2012) and she mentioned Biren.

Qn：谁是你在娱乐圈中的Mentor？
Jeanette：我不会说是mentor，可以说谈得来的前辈是碧仁姐。我很尊重她，喜欢她的工作态度，喜欢她给人的感觉。我们会通电话联络，工作上不明白的东西，有时候会请教她。我的第一部戏《九层糕》就是和她合作的，碧仁姐总是会鼓励我，我还记得《小娘惹》播出时她发了简讯给我说：“我希望你是第一个得奖的公主。” 哈，但我还是令她失望了。

《红星大奖2012》场外奖：观众最想复出演员奖：黄碧仁、郑秀珍

黄碧仁身穿Pois彩色短裙，尽显高挑身材。她说多年没演戏，身体不会痒但嘴巴却会，边看电视边评论，是职业病。她说，应该会等孩子会考过后最快也是年底才考虑“复出”拍戏。


Channel News Asia:
Former Singapore actress Huang Bi Ren's moving portrayal of a woman who stands by her husband (played by former actor Xie Shao Guang), despite his cheating on her and subsequent paralysis in 1998's "Stand By Me", garnered praise from many, many viewers at the time.

Her performance in 2002's "The Vagrant" and "Beautiful Connection" left a deep impression on television audiences and she continued to receive praise for her acting until she decided to leave showbiz in 2008.

What has she been doing since then?

"I have been taking care of my kids. I am quite busy because I believe in doing everything myself," said the mother of three, who tutors her children personally.

"I still watch television at home and I can't help but comment on what I see. It is a 'professional illness'," Huang said, before politely declining to share her comments with the media.

The biggest revelation, however, is that she may well be returning to television.

"We (she and the MediaCorp production staff) have talked about it extensively.

"The earliest I can come back to television is at the end of the year, but early next year would be the best time," said Huang, explaining that she will have her hands full until then, as one of her children is taking the Primary School Leaving Examination this year.
