Fiona Sit (Chinese: 薛凱琪; born 11 August 1981) is a Hong Kong singer and actress.
Early life
In an interview with Hong Kong newspaper Apple Daily in 2006, Fiona Sit revealed that she has always been interested in singing in front of an audience since a very young age, but growing up as the only child in the family left her with little opportunity to sing in front of people of her own age. So she enjoyed visiting her relatives' homes during her childhood in order to perform in front of her cousins and relatives.
She attended Island School and studied Creative Media in City University of Hong Kong until 2004. She used to be a part-time model, posing for adverts and magazines.
Her opportunity to sign a deal with Warner Music came through her uncle, Peter Wong, a senior manager at Capital Artists.
Career
= Music
=After joining Warner Music Group in 2003, Sit first plugged her debut song "XBF" and "Madonna's Kiss", catching attention from audiences. Sit released her first album F Debut on 8 April 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". The song "Keanu Reeves Reply" reached No. 1 in the charts of the four TV and radio stations.
She published her debut photobook F-Trip which sold with her limited set of "Fileee Doll", and was later sold it in Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong. It was sold out in just four days.
Due to the success of F Debut, Warner Music Hong Kong released F Debut AVCD on 5 May 2004. F Debut AVCD included her famous song "Keanu Reeves Reply" and another version which featured Aaron Kwok as Mr. K singing his reply to Miss F.
As she became more well known in the entertainment industry, she shot many adverts in the year, such as Toshiba and Sagem.
At the age of 23, she won most newcomer awards in the year-end ceremony from Hong Kong Music Platforms. In the Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation, she triumphed over other artistes to win No. 7 with the song "Keanu Reeves Reply" and became the first newcomer who achieved the top 10 song in 903 Music Platform. She won a number of awards, including gold award for best female newcomer at the Hong Kong Music Awards, as well as a gold award for the song "Keanu Reeves' Reply." She was also awarded the Best Selling Newcomer by IFPI.
On 7 January 2005, Warner Music released a single named "886". It included songs such as "Pumpkin Wagon" and "886", which is an abbreviation of "Byebye" in Cantonese ICQ language. The single was a huge success and it was sold out within 3 weeks.
Warner Music released her second album Funny Girl on 21 April 2005. Songs "Blackie and Me" and "A Boy Just Like You" reached No. 1 on the charts of 903, RTHK and TVB's Jade Solid Gold programme. Funny Girl was one of the top 5 best selling albums in the year and was certified gold. Its success resulted in the release of Funny Girl (2nd Edition), which included a DVD of her music videos, including the No. 1 single "A Boy Like You".
Her third album, Me, was another CD+DVD combination released on 23 December 2005. It included No. 1 songs "There is a Bird" and "Finding Unicorn", and the song "Love", which was featured in the film Embrace Your Shadow, which Sit starred in. The DVD was a live concert footage of her debut concert "903 Fiona 0811", held in HITEC on 29 December 2005.
In the year-end ceremony, not only did she win a number of awards, she was also shortlisted as one of the best five female singers in 903 Music Platform and TVB's JSG Music Platform together with Kelly Chen, Joey Yung, Miriam Yeung and Denise Ho.
Sit's official fan club, Club F was established on 11 August 2006 in conjunction with her 25th birthday. Her 4th album Electric Angel was released on the same day as well. 200 fans attended the first gathering, which was held in a Chinese restaurant in Wan Chai. The second edition was later released on 22 December 2006. It included 11 songs and some extra materials.
After Electric Angel, Sit went to Taiwan in order to improve her Mandarin skills. In order to keep her fanbase (Hong Kong artists usually release one to two albums per year to keep up their popularity), Warner released her first compilation, "F" Best, on 12 June 2007. The album included 3 new songs with 15 selected songs from her previous albums. The album also includes a DVD containing a short film and some MVs of her songs. In addition, a special edition of "F" Best was sold out in one month.
After training in Taiwan for one year, Sit made her debut Mandarin album It's My Day which was released on 18 April 2008. The album was recorded in Taiwan and in Singapore. It features songs such as I Don't Need Tiffany, which refers to the jewelry company and a duet with Khalil Fong, "Overcoming Memories". "It's My Day" was the first plugged song in Taiwan while "Alice's First Time" was the first plugged song in Hong Kong. This Mandarin album made Sit the best five sellers in the year in Hong Kong and became famous in Taiwan.
On 19 December 2008, Sit released another Cantopop album Smile. It included the songs in her drama Last Smile, First Tear and two No. 1 songs, "Sweet" and "The Few Seconds Without Breath".
Sit released an EP Read Me on 16 October 2009, which included four new cantopop songs and two Mandarin songs. Besides, her first plugged song "Tramcar" and third plugged song "Mu Rong Xue" reached No. 1 in two charts.
On the first day of 2010, Sit was awarded the #3 Copper Female Award in 903-year-end ceremony, for the first time.
On 18 July 2011, Sit released her new EP August Girl. It showcased a new style of Fiona Sit, with thematic song "The August Issue", two versions of "Word Flower", No. 1 song "Lip Stick", gimmick song "Before Taking Off the Straps" and two Mandarin songs. She cooperated with a team of top songwriters including Khalil Fong, Wyman Wong, Hanjin Tan, Edward Chan, and Abrahim Chan.

In 2005 Sit went on to film her first Hong Kong TVB series The Academy, her role was a female police trainee. To meet the job requirement of her character, 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.
Despite the above, she won the Best Female newcomer in the 2006 Next TV ceremony.
In late 2006, Sit went to China and shot a drama by Derek Tung, who was 2 Young's director. Since the schedules clashed, she can only be a guest star in TVB series On The First Beat. The series was called C'est La Vie, Mon Chéri, she starred opposite Chinese actor Aloys Chen. It released after filming and was broadcast by TVB in 2008.
In 2007, she performed an internet drama hosted by Moov, with other singers like Endy Chown and Zarahn. From 2008 to 2009, she had a guest role in two TVB series Dressage To Win and ICAC Investigators 2009.

Owing the success of 2 Young, she filmed another movie Embrace Your Shadow, it showed in September. Joe Ma did the casting and Sit starred opposite famous Taiwanese actor Dylan Kuo. It was a challenge for Sit because the character was the complete opposite of her role in 2 Young.

Although she lost to Jay Chou, her acting was praised by a number of entertainers. She also got other nominations of "Best Newcomer" and "Best Actress" hosted by a different group for 2 Young.
