With countless obituaries and messages of grief, Asia says goodbye to Coco Lee, one of the region’s most famous singers. She passed away in early July at the age of 48. On Instagram, her sister Nancy reminisces about how Lee „worked tirelessly“ to bring Chinese stars international attention and „went all out to shine for the Chinese.“ Lee’s fellow actor and singer Jackie Chan posted a photo of himself and Lee on his Weibo page, writing, „Your voice, dancing and sunny smile have left a mark on many. You brought so much to this world. There is now one more star in the sky.“ Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh also said her goodbyes to Lee with the words, „We have lost a bright star.“
