Kit on a break
Crooner Kit Chan is taking "an indefinite" break from the
Chinese pop music scene.
The 32 year old, who was one of the first Singaporeans
singers to succeed in Hong Kong and Taiwan, said she would
be "embarking on a long break" in an e-mail that was sent
to the media yesterday morning.
She added: "I should also make clear to you that I am not
retiring from the entertainment scene.... So, you will
most certainly still see me performing on stage, TV, film,
or whatever projects I might be taking on in the future.
She has been in the pop scene since 1994, when the title
track of her first album, Heartache, became a big hit in
Taiwan. She is said to have opened the door for other
Singaporean singers like Stefanie Sun.
Her contract with local label Ocean Butterflies ended this
year. Her latest and last record on it, a chill-out CD
called East Towards Saturn, will be released this week.
Her representative told Life! that she left Singapore for
the United States on Sunday and will be travelling there
for a year with her banker boyfriend.
But she will still be back here "on and off" for assorted
work committments, like the launch of her new book in
December and performances on stage or on screen, said
the representative.
