Candy Lo
(Lo Hau Yam, Liu Qiao Yin, Lo Hau Yum)
Singer, Actress
Born: October 18th Languages: Chinese, English
Singer-songwriter, musician and actor Candy Lo is one of the more refreshing talents
to emerge in Hong Kong in recent years. Candy led the band Black & Blue before signing
with Sony Records as a solo artist in 1998. Her edgy, personal style of indie-rock offers an
an alternative to the formulaic Cantopop tunes usually heard on HK airwaves. Evidentiary of
her rock chick lifestyle, her tattoos visibly distinguish herself from the Kelly Chen pop idol
prototype.
Like so many HK singers, Candy later became an actress. In 2000 she got 3 HKFA
nominations for her debut roles in Time and Tide (by director Tsui Hark) and Aubrey Lam's
romance Twelve Nights. (with Eason Chan and Cecilia Cheung).
Candy also proved herself to be adept at comedy in Herman Yau's Happy Family, as a ball-
busting pregnant advertising executive called "Godzilla" in If U Care.. and Yuen Biao's
beaver-toothed kung fu fighting sister in the HK-Japanese production No Problem 2.
