Dee Hsu (Chinese: 徐熙娣; pinyin: Xú Xīdì; Wade–Giles: Hsü Hsi-ti), more commonly known as Xiǎo S or Little S (小S), was born on 14 June 1978. She is a Taiwanese host, actress, and singer. She is well known for her quick-witted caustic humor as being a co-host of the most popular talk show in Taiwan KangXi Lai Le which airs on Chung T'ien Television with fellow host Kevin Tsai from 2004 to 2015 (but is showing on TV until early 2016), for which they were awarded Best Host in a Variety Programme at the 40th Golden Bell Awards in 2005.[3]

Biography

Prior to becoming a host, Hsu sang in a duo with her elder sister, Barbie Hsu, called "S.O.S." (Sisters of Shu). Due to copyright issues with music labels, the group's name was changed to A.S.O.S. (All Sisters of Shu) in the late 90s.[4]

Since 1999, Hsu and her sister gradually put their singing career to rest. Hsu went on to host various TV programs, including GUESS and KangXi Lai Le, which she joined in 2004, and has since been a top host/comedian in Taiwan. She also worked as a spokesperson for Shiatzy Chen.

In 2004, Hsu collaborated with Show Luo, her then co-host on 100% Entertainment, on a duet "戀愛達人" (Love Expert) and co-starred with Luo in the music video. The track was released on Luo's second album Expert Show.

Hsu married Mike Hsu in 2005. They have 3 daughters and live in Taipei. Her marriage and motherhood is a recurring joke in "KangXi Lai Le", usually when commenting on the male guests.

On 2013 August 26. Dee, her husband(Xu Ya Jun) and her father-in-law(Xu Qing Xiang), were sued after being involved in the Bread store Chain "Pang Da Ren" scandal.[5]

Political view

Hsu has expressed her Pan-Blue political views publicly many times. Her most admired individual is Ma Ying-jeou, who was once a guest on her program.
