Joey Yung

Since her debut in 1999, Joey Yung (容祖兒) has achieved much success and is recognized for her talent as one of the best new generation canto-pop singers. Within her short career span, she has released 31 albums and received over 250 local and international awards, including TVB “Jade Solid Gold” Best Female Singer for the past four consecutive years.

In 2005 she won more than 20 awards and received the highest honour award: The Media Award, which is presented to the artiste who accumulated the most awards from the 4 major music award ceremonies in Hong Kong. In addition to earning that honour, Joey was also the youngest singer in history to have won this award. Joey is one of the few female artistes to accumulate top record sales throughout the years and this has led her to win for the past consecutive three years, the coveted “IFPI HK Top Sales Music Award” for Most Popular Female Singer.

Being the first Hong Kong artiste to perform with the Moravian Philharmonic Orchestra for her concert last year, Joey’s breakthrough shows demonstrate her progression into one of the top talents in Hong Kong’s entertainment industry.

Aside from her career, Joey has dedicated her spare time to social and charitable campaigns such as ‘UNICEF’ & ‘World Vision’ and was selected as ambassador and spokesperson of charity organizations.
