3 Great Reasons to Support Local Rising Stars: Candy Lo Hang-Yin in Hong Kong

Posted on July 27, 2010 by Rayfil Wong(Click for Details for upcoming concert)Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0RO960bZSw&feature=related(Candy Lo performing)The moment I met Candy Lo, her vibrant smile was noticeable. After a few surface level chatter, I got to know her more as a person over the months and found a distinct inviting persona about her.Candy Lo is remarkable.Remarkable defined = something worth talking aboutFollowing her passion of singing and performing, Cando Lo worked for Disneyland in Hong Kong. Later, I had been convinced that she performs to entertain and inspire, as oppose to others after the fame and money.She mentioned that she know that monetary rewards may not come her way, but she wanted to do something she loves.(CLAP) (CLAP)Admirable.In the world of entertainment, there are numerous choices.

Mainstream and independent.For me, I enjoy watching the underdogs, the independents stars for 3 main reasons.1::  Accessibility.  These rising stars are approachable. After concerts, I enjoy talking to these people as a person whether as a budding comic at Takeout Comedy or at local venues. Get their autographs, give them a hi 5/ low 5, ask for advice.2 :: Cheerleaders.  We all have dreams. Some aspire to be comics, actors/actress, hand models, DJ’s, but along the way before stardom, they need every support. Every famous person started at home plate. Lady Gaga once played at piano lounges.3:: Intimacy.  I learn to enjoy concerts more when they are in small venues, providing an intimate setting. I can feel the music and I feel a greater connection to the artist._In short, follow your dreams. The biggest limitation maybe yourself.
