Biography

Queenzy's musical career began when she was five, performing solo in her relative's wedding reception.[1] She gradually transformed into an artiste, launching her debut at the age of eight. Famous for releasing Chinese New Year albums over the last two decades, Queenzy also performs across other genres from classical music to musical theatre and pop. To date, M-Girls has launched more than 17 albums.[2]

Following her success of her albums, Queenzy collectively formed M-Girls 四个女生 in 2001 with three other emerging artistes; Angeline Khoo, Cass Chin and Crystal Ong. The M-Girls’ debut album and subsequent releases won multiple awards.[3] M-Girls was quickly dubbed the S.H.E. of Malaysia. Their albums were not only the fastest-selling album in the Malaysian Chinese New Year album history but also in the Asian region.[3]

In 2017, Queenzy collaborates with Taiwanese model, Tom Chang (張瀚元) to release a single titled 愛 Don't Be Shy.[4] The single was recorded in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and filmed in Taipei, Taiwan. On 9 October 2017, Queenzy announced on her Facebook page that she will be releasing her 2018 Chinese New Year album on her personal capacity since M-Girls is taking a break.[5] She has also invited her fans to participate by submitting their lyrics to be part of this year's album.[5] Queenzy revealed that she releasing the 2018 You Are The Best! album with guest celebrities including Wei Wei ⼩薇薇, John Wee 黄俊源 and Tedd Chan 曾国辉 on 15 November 2017.[6]

In 2018, Queenzy collaborated with Crystal Ong to reproduce an online Single similar to their 1995 双星报喜 album. They reproduced the 招财进宝 song with almost identical costume, composition and filming method.[7] On 15 October 2018, Queenzy announced that she will continue releasing her Queenzy and Friends album in 2019 with guest celebrities including Tedd Chan 曾国辉,[8] Veron Lin 练倩汶[9] as well as PongPong碰碰[10] – Jeii Pong 庞捷忆 and Gaston Pong 庞圭武.
