Information:
Fiona Sit is a female Cantopop singer and actress from Hong Kong. She entered themusic industry through her uncles connections with Warner Music Group, Hong Kong. Impressed by her vocal talent and good looks, Warner Music warmly recruited her as a new rising star of year 2004.
Fiona Sit Hoi Kei started featuring in commercial advertisement in 2002, and later was introduced to Warner Music by her influential uncle.
Fiona Sit, an only child, attended Island School and continued her higher education at the City University of Hong Kong until 2004.
Her first language is Cantonese and she can speak fluent English and French. She mastered Mandarin after living in Taiwan for one year, even creating her first Mandarin album, It's My Day.
Sit released her first album F Debut in 2004. It became a best-seller in Hong Kong, being certified gold for sales in excess of 25,000 copies. The album contained the hit ballad "XBF" (short for ex-boyfriend) and another hit "Keanu Reeves Reply."
On 7 January 2005, Warner Music released a single named 886. It included songs such as "Pumpkin Wagon" and "886", which is a short term of Byebye in Cantonese ICQ language. The single was a huge success and it was sold out within 3 weeks.
TV series
In 2005 Sit went on to film her first Hong Kong TVB series The Academy as a female police trainee. To match the character's circumstances, Fiona cut her hair short. In contrast to her past success, fans responded negatively towards this change in her image, and were wary of her future career decisions. She followed with a cameo performance on On The First Beat. Sit also featured in a weight loss product TV commercial, in which she performed a dance routine. These two events were mocked in the Hong Kong media, and cut into her fanbase.
2008 bottle attack incident
On 23 February 2008, a 27 year-old male fan named Lin threw a bottle of herbal tea at Sit as she was on stage during a charity event in Mong Kok, resulting in an injury to her forehead. The man was detained by security guards and later arrested. The bottle also caused minor injury to a staff member of the event.
