Karen Joy Morris (Chinese: 莫文蔚; pinyin: Mò Wénwèi; born 2 June 1970), better known as Karen Mok, is a Hong Kong actress and singer. She is considered one of the leading East Asian pop singers and actresses with a career spanning three decades.[1] Mok is the first female Hong Kong singer to win the Golden Melody Award, and to date has won it three times.

Mok has released 18 solo studio albums, starred in over 40 movies, and has over 15 million followers on leading Chinese social media site Weibo. The Lhasa concert during The Ultimate Karen Mok Show (2018–2021) set the Guinness World Record for the Highest Altitude Mass-Attended Music Concert.[2] In 2024, Mok was the first female singer to do a solo concert in Beijing National Stadium, the Bird's Nest.[3]

Early life

[edit]

Karen Mok was born on 2 June 1970 as Karen Joy Morris in Hong Kong. She is of mixed ancestry: her mother is half Chinese, quarter German and quarter Persian, while her father is half Welsh and half Chinese.[4][5] Her grandfather was Alfred Morris, the first principal of King's College, Hong Kong. She speaks English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Italian, German and French.[6]

Mok attended Diocesan Girls' School from primary to secondary grade in Hong Kong. When she was a F.4 student, she received the 1st Hong Kong Outstanding Students Awards. In 1987, she won a scholarship for the United World College of the Adriatic in Duino (Trieste, Italy) from which she graduated in 1989 with the International Baccalaureate.[7] She subsequently studied Italian Literature at Royal Holloway, University of London.[8]

Music career

[edit]

1993–2004: Career beginnings and musical breakthrough

[edit]

While studying in London, Mok auditioned for the West End Musical Miss Saigon. At the same time, she recorded music demo tapes together with fellow students which landed her first recording contract with Star Records. She decided to put her theatre aspirations on hold, headed back to Hong Kong and released in 1993 her first Cantonese album Karen.[citation needed] She achieved her musical breakthrough with the launch of her first Mandarin album To Be in 1997. In 2000, she gave her debut solo concert, The Very Karen Mok Show, in Taipei in front of 20,000 spectators.[9]

2005–2014: International efforts

In 2005, she started her international concert tours with the Extremely Karen Mok Show.[10] She also assumed the role of creative director and producer in her concert tours.[11]

In 2013, she launched her English album Somewhere I belong,[12] an East-meets-West reinterpretation of jazz classics.[13][14] The album is recorded in China with East Asian musicians and adding the guzheng on several tracks.[15] She showcased this album at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, London, on 30 May 2013.[16] Mok said about the title of the album: “It’s about what I do, when I feel comfortable, that’s when I’m doing what I love most, that’s singing, that’s when I’m performing on stage, and just singing my heart out, sharing my emotions,” she said. “So that’s where I belong.”[15] The Age of Moknificence Tour (2014–2015)[17][18][19] celebrated her 20th anniversary in show business.

2015–2020: Tours and world records

[edit]

The Regardez Tour (2015–2016) started in Taipei and led Mok to 27 cities in Asia, North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.[20][21] As part of this tour, she was the first Chinese pop artist to give solo concerts in Madrid and Milan.[22]

The Ultimate Karen Mok Show started on 23 June 2018 with the concert in the Hongkou Football Stadium in Shanghai 23 June 2018 in front of more than 20,000 spectators[23] and totaled 48 concerts in 40 cities in Asia, Europe and Australia.[24][25] The tour was largely conducted in outdoor stadiums, with the maximum attendance of 40,000 in the Beijing Workers' Stadium, Beijing, on 22 September 2019.[26] On 12 October 2019, she performed in Lhasa at an altitude of 3650m, setting the Guinness World Record for the Highest Altitude Mass-Attended Music Concert[27] and being the first solo stadium concert in Tibet. Her concerts in the Taipei Arena on 7 and 8 December 2019 had the special feature that she performed entirely different song lists on each night.[28] The European leg of the tour brought her in London to the Palladium and in Paris to the Folies Bergère, making her the first Chinese pop singer to perform in this venue.[29]

2021–present: Continued success

[edit]

With the Ultimate tour, Mok celebrated her 25th anniversary in show business. Interrupted by the events around the global Covid pandemic, the tour finished with three concerts in Hong Kong in June 2021. Her 2021 single "Empty World" had over 3bn streams on Chinese music platforms and became an anthem during the Covid pandemic in mainland China.

In 2024 and 2025, Mok ran a series of large-scale stadium concerts titled "The Big Big Show", commencing in Beijing on 15 June 2024 in front of an audience of 60,000, followed by concerts in Shanghai, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Hangzhou and Wuhan in the later part of 2024. In 2025, the series continued with concerts in Suzhou, Chongqing, Nanjing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Xian. In the course of this concert series "The Big Big Show", she was the first female singer to perform a solo concert in Beijing's Bird's Nest stadium.
