Blythe Belle, also known as Chung Yee, will be 20 years of age in 2024. She was born on August 4, 2004.
Chung Yee is also the daughter of a famous parent, Hong Kong singer and actor Kenny Bee. Kenny Bee is considered one of Hong Kong’s most recongnisable stars, having sung in the 1970s pop band ‘The Wynners’ and for his work as a solo artist.
Blythe is no stranger to the Chinese entertainment scene as 8world reports that Kenny Bee would often bring her along to his shows and performances and she was known as something of a mini-celebrity then.
Baidu too reports that Blythe had also released music with her father as a child in 2012. Blythe and Kenny Bee both sang on the song ‘Dad’s Words’, which is a rendition of the popular mandarin song ‘Mom’s Words’. The song is a touching ballad on a father’s love for his child.
According to 8days, Blythe had also performed alongside her father when she was older, at seventeen, and sang next to him during a live concert, showcasing that she has not lost touch of the singing skills she inherited from her father.
Fast forward to now, Blythe has entered the Chinese music industry herself in her own right as a singer! She debuted on the Tencent reality TV show ‘Run! Ten Thousand People Live’ in July, reports Douban.

Blythe's debut on the show is remarkable, given that the purpose of 'Run! Ten Thousand People Live' was to showcase prospective Generation Z singers and test their live concert performance abilities in front of a ten thousand-person audience.
Blythe’s appearance in 'Run! Ten Thousand People Live' is already a promising one for her upcoming C-pop career, as 8days reports her appearance in the show had the support of many powerful A-listers in the C-entertainment industry, including Jacky Cheung, Shu Qi, Richie Ren among many others.
With talent, a renowned father, and many prominent celebrities backing her up, Blythe's entry into the C-pop world is not only widely anticipated, but also one to keep an eye on, as she might be one of the scene’s latest rising stars!
