Who: Singaporean actor-host-comedian Mark Lee, 57, is a familiar face on both movie and television screens. On the big screen, the King Kong Media Production artiste’s portrayal of a drag queen in the comedy drama Number 1 (2020) saw him nominated for Best Leading Actor at the Golden Horse Awards.
His latest movie is the action comedy Im Not Gangster, which opens here on Feb 26. In it, he plays the boss of a crime syndicate.
On the small screen, Lee has clinched many prizes at the annual Star Awards, such as four Best Comedy Performer prizes and four Best Variety Show Host accolades from 1998 to 2012. He was also given the All-Time Favourite Artiste award in 2010 and Special Achievement Award in 2024.
He is married to homemaker Catherine Ng, 52, and they have three children – daughters Calista, 17, and Calynn, 12; and son Maksonn, 14.
“Every Saturday evening, my family goes cycling at East Coast Park with two other families. Our kids have known one another since their kindergarten days and our group usually comprises six adults and seven children. We usually cycle from about 8.30pm, because it is cooler in the evenings and there are fewer people.
Starting from the East Coast Seafood Centre, we head east until we reach Changi Jurassic Mile, where we turn around and return to our starting point. We let the kids lead the way and cycle at a leisurely pace.
