Born in British Hong Kong in 1965 to an Australian father and a Chinese mother, Godenzi was encouraged to join the Miss Hong Kong pageant by her modeling agency, which had groomed one of its models, Maggie Cheung, to compete the year before. Heavily favored, she won the title, in addition to the Miss Photogenic award.[1] After her unsurprising victory, many expected her to do well in Miss Universe 1984 in Miami. She was unplaced eventually, but did win third prize in the national costume competition.
After her reign, Godenzi started a film career and was in several action films and appeared in several films alongside kung fu film actor Sammo Hung. She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 1988 Hong Kong Film Awards for her role in Eastern Condors. Godenzi has since retired from acting.
Personal life
After her retirement in 1991, she married service engineer Chan Chee Fah from Malaysia in 1992. They divorced in 1994 and Godenzi married Sammo Hung in 1995.
She is a Jehovah's Witness, having grown up attending services. She returned to the faith later in life and has written about her religious beliefs.[2]
