Mandopop Singer Kelly Poon On Privacy and Digital Detox

Social media has taught her to be less shy, says Kelly.

You’re secretly good at…

Photoshop! I use it to balance colour tones, photo angles and small imperfections. My favourite trick is to use the monochrome filter as it can make a photo very impactful.

Have you gone on a social media detox before?

I’m all for a social media detox. I don’t get to see my friends a lot due to my hectic work schedule, so when I do get to meet up, I make sure to spend quality time with them. Unfortunately, I tend to get distracted by social media, so they came up with a good solution — no phones.

[Now] when I do a staycation with friends, I’ll “forget” to bring my phone along. In fact, it’s been so effective that I go on my own “detox” sometimes!

Where and when can we see you next in the music scene?

I am hoping to release my new album by the end of this year. Stay tuned!
