Doris Young Siew Keen (born November 25, 1959 in Singapore) is a Singaporean actress. Given the stage name Marrie Lee, she made her film debut at age 18, portraying the title character in 1978's ''They Call Her Cleopatra Wong'', a martial arts film about a female Interpol agent written and directed by Bobby A. Suarez. She reprised the role in 1979's ''Dynamite Johnson'', in which she was teamed up with the 10-year-old Singaporean tae kwon do practitioner, Johnson Yap, from ''Bionic Boy'', a 1978 film written by Suarez, and ''The Devil's Three'', in which Cleopatra Wong leads an all-female team of crimefighters in the Philippines.〔(Bionic Boy and Cleopatra Wong: Singapore's Heroic Duo ), Southeast Asia Cinematheque, 2005.〕 ==Career== Doris started her acting career when she was working as a receptionist in a nightclub and she answered a newspaper ad that asked "Are you smart, sexy and seductive?" The ad was placed by Suarez' BAS Film Productions, which was looking for a heroine who could ride a motorcycle. She auditioned in a miniskirt and boots and won the role. Her screen name, Marrie Lee, was created to capitalize on the fame of the late Bruce Lee. "Some fans thought that I was his younger sister," she told ''The Business Times'' in a 2005 interview. She performed her own stunts, including jumping through a real glass window and dangling from a helicopter,〔("Smash! Bang!
