Up, Close and Personal with Anthony Neely

Anthony Neely is an American Mandopop singer of mixed ethnicity. His father is of Euro-American descent and his mother is Taiwanese. In 2009, Anthony participated in popular singing competition, One Million Star (Season 5) as a PK (Player Kill) challenger.





His performances created huge sensations after receiving full marks of 25 points on three occasions, and also being the first in the reality show’s history to score a record 33 out of 25 points.


Anthony sang Xiao Huang-Chi’s ‘You Are My Eyes’ (你是我的眼) during his first performance in One Million Star. He said that he did not really understand the meaning behind the lyrics of the song, but was touched by the melody and performed it according to his own feelings. One of the judges of the competition, Phil Chang, was greatly touched by the performance, and praised Anthony’s rendition for "having a different style from the original singer."





I was invited to his mini concert at Ximending. He really have a great voice!
