So many nominees, but there can only be one winner.
The recent Star Awards on Sunday (April 9) saw deserving celebrities receive the trophy for their stellar performances. However, there are some who have been nominated multiple times in the same performance categories but have yet to win.
Who haven't had any luck?
Jesseca Liu (刘子绚 Liú zi xuàn)
Although Jesseca Liu received her 10th and final Top 10 Most Popular Female Artiste award, a separate award eluded her this year for the fifth time.

Jesseca, 44, has been in showbiz for 19 years and has had five Best Actress nominations — yet she has never won. However, she did bring home the MyPick! The Female Show Stealer this year for her work in Soul Detective.

Since then, Jesseca has won Outstanding Leading Actress in Comedy at the 2019 Asia Rainbow TV Award for her role in Hero and was a finalist for Best Performance by an Actress in the 2020 New York Festivals TV and Film Award for her role in The Driver.

On Sunday however, the veteran actress couldn't beat out the competition and wasn't able to clinch either accolade.
While she hasn't won a performance award for Chinese dramas at the Star Awards, she has found success outside of the Mediacorp ceremony.
For her performance in the local English drama Last Madame (2019), Lina won Best Actress in a Supporting Role in both the 2020 Asian Academy Creative Awards and the 2021 Asian TV Awards.
