Mother's Day is tomorrow and local singer Yumiko Cheng Hei-yi wants to use the occasion to say thanks to her mum for helping her through the most difficult time in her career.

The singer/actress had a rough time of it last year with two 'wardrobe malfunctions'.

The first time her trousers slipped off during a stunt for a live charity show. Six months later, in June 2007, her tube top dress slipped, accidentally exposing her breasts while she was performing a live show in Canada.

The 60-second clip was posted on YouTube and received a record 500,000 hits within days. She became the most searched celebrity on Google Hong Kong last year.

Cheng (below) said she was depressed at the time, but a phone call from her mother helped her bounce back.

'My mum deliberately waited a while after the incident before she gave me the call. But she didn't go into why it happened.
