Dee Hsu (Chinese: 徐熙娣; pinyin: Xú Xīdì; born 14 June 1978), also known by her stage name Little S (小S), is a Taiwanese television host, actress, and singer. Known for her caustic wit, she co-hosted Kangsi Coming (2004–2016) with Kevin Tsai, for which the duo was awarded Best Host in a Variety Programme at the 40th Golden Bell Awards in 2005. Hsu currently hosts talk show Hsu Girls Talk (2022–).

Life and career

Hsu was born in Taipei, Taiwan, as the youngest of three sisters. Her eldest sister is Hsu Si-hsien, followed by Barbie Hsu, with whom Dee formed a musical duo initially known as "S.O.S." (Sisters of Shu). Their cousin, Chelsey Chang Chia-ru, is a news anchor and journalist.

In the late 1990s, due to copyright disputes with the music label, S.O.S. renamed themselves A.S.O.S. (All Sisters of Shu). By 1999, A.S.O.S. transitioned away from their music careers to hosting. They co-hosted Guess from 1996 to 2000 and 100% Entertainment from 1998 to 2005.

In 2014, Hsu released her first solo EP under the stage name Elephant Hsu. The EP features five songs composed by Hsu; four include lyrics written by her, and one has lyrics by Barbie.

From 2004 to 2016, Hsu co-hosted the popular talk show Kangsi Coming with Kevin Tsai, catapulting the duo to fame across the Chinese-speaking world. After Kangsi wrapped in 2016, Hsu starred in the film Didi's Dream (2017), directed by Tsai. The film received mixed reviews and performed poorly at the box office. Hsu and Tsai reunited in 2018 for the Youku variety show Zhenxiang ba! Huahua Wanwu for three seasons, but they failed to replicate the popularity of Kangsi Coming.

Personal life

Hsu dated Micky Huang for four years until their high-profile breakup in 2000 at the height of Huang's popularity, which derailed Huang's career due to his alleged cheating with Bowie Tsang. The former couple reconciled on Kangsi Coming in 2015.

Hsu married Taiwanese businessman Mike Xu in 2005. They have three daughters, Elly (许曦文), Lily (许韶恩) and Alice (许曦恩).
