Fiona Sit Hoi Kei Biography
Fiona Sit Hoi Kei started featuring in commercial advertisement in 2002, and later was introduced to Warner Music by her influential uncle. Fiona’s talent and voice attracted Warner’s production and signed her as singer in 2004.
Fiona Sit released her debut album, “F Debut” in 2004 and was quite a hit with a combo of refreshing, alternative and pop ballad. Fiona Sit was gaining fast popularity in Hong Kong and received multiple Best Newcomer recognition in Hong Kong musical awards.
After releasing an EP in early 2005, Fiona went into acting instead but her debut TV drama “The Academy” was a disappointment.
Fiona Sit released her 2nd album, “Funny Girl” in April 2005 and won back her fans. Fiona didn’t give up on acting though; she starred in 2005 movies “Embrace Your Shadow” and “2 Young.”
Fiona’s effort in acting paid off as she was nominated for Best New Performer in 25th Hong Kong Film Awards with her role in 2 Young.
Fiona released her 3rd album “Me” end of 2005 and her 4th album “Electric Angel” on her 25th birthday on August 11, 2006.
Why I like Fiona Sit Hoi Kei
Fiona Sit Hoi Kei is not the typical beauty, but kinda cute. I like her voice and song, simple and refreshing. Her acting is ok too, but I would prefer to see her singing.
Fiona Sit is definitely one of the best Hong Kong young stars in recent years; I believe Fiona got the talent to excel as a future superstar.

“Tong But Lut” Hmmm, ok, I guess someone made a typo. I’d still like to know what that translates to.
Interestingly, there is another mv for that same song with her dressed in these weird clothes and makeup dancing around in dark hallways and such. Very strange. I don’t like it nearly as much as the android hairdresser video. Not sure why the record company chose to shoot 2 videos for the same song anyway. The song was a hit for her. It’s not like they needed another gimmick with a second video.

Fiona does potray lots of different images in her MV, sometimes in her real life too… perhaps that’s the factor that attracts so many of her young fans. Teenagers nowadays love something alternative and punky :p

Well, it just seems a little uncommon to me, but yeah, I guess if she and the record company are successful enough with a song and it sells like hotcakes then they can afford to make an alternative video to promote the song and her even more. I happen to know that with props, extras, crew, makeup, equpment, studio time, editing time, directors fees, and all kinds of other fees involved in making just one of those MV’s, it can run upwards of 25 to 35 thousand dollars or more. (American). And that’s a minimum. So I guess the extra investment pays for itself on a hit song.
It’s kind of like when American artists started doing alternative dance mixes to songs for the club scenes 10 to 12 tears back. Or putting bonus tracks on the end of a CD. It was all for an extra gimmick to make an extra buck. Now everybody all over the world does that stuff. Anything to make more money I guess. But still, it is also fun to see different versions of stuff. Like you said, it keeps the fans’ interest. :)

Yummy, I’m curious, does Fiona do any Mando-pop? Seems everything I run across of hers is Cantonese. I know she’s Hong Kong, but some of them also sing Mandarin sometimes.
Also, do you allow links of MV’s to be posted from places like Youtube? Wasn’t sure what your policies were on that.
January 18th, 2007 at 8:00 am
Hmm, never mind about the Mando-pop question. I see you’ve listed her languages as Cantonese, English and French only. Guess that means she doesn’t speak Mandarin.

joe… Hong Kong music industry is a small market (and made worse by piracy), the best way for singers to make money is by concerts.
Lots of the time HK’s MV are produced with minimal budget… nowadays Taiwan and Korea are producing much better music video compared to Hong Kong.
Actually Fiona does speak a bit of Mandarin, but her Mandarin sux lol… not sure if she released any Mandarin albums yet. There’s lots of HK singers that can’t speak proper Mandarin but still doing Mando-pop, so I’ll not be surprised if Fiona is releasing a Mandarin album.

Hmm, that’s interesting about the Hong Kong industry, thanks Yummy.

January 30th, 2007 at 5:29 pm
long neck? lol never really noticed that. I guess bcoz her hair was short when she filmed the police drama.
January 30th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
A long neck is just more for me to kiss and nibble on. :b
January 30th, 2007 at 8:02 pm
I thought of being for conservative with my words… since you started it, I actually think long necks are sexy :p

Honestly how did US people managed to know about Fiona? Compared to some other Asian superstars, Fiona is still relatively not that famous even in Asia.

Yummy , can you tell me what “Tong But Lut” means, and could you show me the title in Chinese characters. Thanks.
February 5th, 2007 at 9:03 pm
Chinese is 糖不甩, it’s the name of a Chinese dessert. It’s also used as a representative of love in some Chinese culture.
