Alan Tam began his career in the HK entertainment industry in the
legendary band 'Wynners', before branching out into his own singing and
acting career. Though he won 'Best Male Actor' awards twice in the
early 1980s, he is better known as one of the all-time greats of
Cantonese pop music, dominating the scene in the early-mid 1980s, with
songs often winning 'Top Ten Songs of the Year' awards, and himself
taking 'Most Popular Male Singer' on numerous occasions. His most
famous songs include 'Love's Origins', 'Illusion Images', 'Friend' and
'Autumn Love', plus the pop/disco classic 'Love Trap'. He would have
won more awards in the 1980s had he not controversially decided to
refuse all singing and acting awards from 1988 onwards. Nonetheless, he
has continued to sing and act to this day. Known for his healthy lyrics
and clean lifestyle, he earned the nickname 'Lucky' for his constant
success on celebrity game shows. He started the trend amongst HK
entertainers to claim eternal youthfulness, declaring every year that
he is turning 25. Very good friends with Jackie Chan and HK TV greats
Eric Cheng and Natalis Chan, he is a seafood lover and the captain of
the HK Celebrities' Soccer Team.
