Шаблон:Infobox person 2R is a former cantopop duo group in Hong Kong. The duo group consisted of the two sisters Rosanne Wong and Race Wong, who were born in Malaysia and raised in Singapore with Rosanne being the elder sister.

They have a dedicated fan base and their recent albums, "2R Revolution" and "2R New + Best Selection", have been reasonably successful. The motion picture "Ab-Normal Beauty" (Шаблон:Zhi) starring the two sisters also earned Race Wong a "Best New Actor nomination" at the Hong Kong Film Award and Golden Horse Award.

Past members Rosanne Wong, Race Wong

Biography

Both of them were born in Malaysia but moved to Singapore with their family at very early ages. Rosanne was born on 30 June 1979, while Race was born on 7 September 1982. Before entering show business, they studied together at Fowlie Primary School, Tanjong Katong Secondary School, Curtin University of Technology in Perth, Western Australia. The pair were discovered by an agent during a singing contest in 1998 and were brought to Hong Kong. They eventually signed by Universal Music.

Beginning

Although 2R has yet to achieve the level of success that others have in the beginning, they arguably went through a much harder time. The agent who initially signed the sisters had arranged an apartment for them in Hong Kong and was able to get them a few modelling jobs but nothing substantial materialised. Meanwhile, the sisters were working on improving their Cantonese while recording their first album in the hopes of attracting more fans. However, their agent suddenly disappeared and the sisters were burdened with several months of unpaid rent and were eventually evicted. Without agent and money, the sisters turned to their parents who helped them pay off their debt and found them a new home. Шаблон:Citation needed Soon afterwards they were signed by Universal Music.

Separate success

Although 2R usually perform together, the sisters exhibit two different styles. Rosanne the elder sister is more mature, naive and elegant, while Race is more youthful and energetic. However it is Race who has experienced the greater success with appearances in various commercials, magazine covers, and movies. In the movie Sound of Colours (Шаблон:Zhi), both Rosanne and Race made cameo appearances but only Race's scene made it to the big screen. They also starred in the Wong Jing's movie Love Is A Many Stupid Thing (精裝追女仔2004) where Race played a major role while Rosanne's character was limited to just a few on screen appearances. It wasn't until Ab-normal Beauty (Шаблон:Zhi) in 2004 that both sisters played significant parts. It was followed by China's Next Top Princess (Шаблон:Zhi) in 2005, and The Smiling Proud Wanderer stage performance by the Hong Kong Dance Company in 2006.Шаблон:Citation needed
