The complicated phenomenon of capitalism is that even wealthy people may not be happy. “There are many depressed, mentally stressed people who look very happy and appear like their lives are well put together,” Che Puan Sarimah Ibrahim shares one of the biggest myths surrounding mental health. By that token then, even famous people may not be happy.
And so begins our conversations with two personalities: Sarimah the award-winning celebrity host; and Sarimah the woman—and mother—with anxieties. The celebrity version of Sarimah has been in the public eye for more than two decades now. She broke into the scene on TV in 1997 when she was 18, hosting the RIM Chart Show and Kids NTV7. Then in 2001, she launched her eponymous solo album Sarimah, which quickly earned her recognition at the 2002 Music Industry Awards Malaysia (AIM) as Best New Artist and ERA Awards as Best Breakthrough Artist. Since then, a career in entertainment boomed and cemented her as a bona fide belle of local network TV with acting roles and a string of TV shows too long to list down here.
