Hey Girl is a group of Taiwanese singers. Channel [V] held an audition for the show Wo Ai Hei Se Hui (我愛黑澀會), a variety show that aims to create new female entertainers in Taiwan. At the end of 2005, Channel [V] picked nine members to represent the other girls. These nine members were Gui Gui, Xiao Jie, Mei Mei, Apple, Xiao Xun, Ya Tou, Xiao Man, Tong Tong, and Da Ya. Together, they are affectionately known as the Qiu Niu Niu (Chinese: 九妞妞; pinyin: Jiǔ Niū Niū) for short.
The nine members were separated into two groups for their third EP release: Da Ya, Xiao Man, Ya Tou, Gui Gui, and Apple comprised Fen Hong Gao Ya Dian (Traditional Chinese: 粉紅高壓電; pinyin: Fěn Hóng Gāo Yā Diàn; literally: "high-voltage pink"), and Mei Mei, Xiao Xun, Xiao Jie, and Tong Tong (since departed) comprised Tian Xin Hong Zha Ji (Traditional Chinese: 甜心轟炸機; pinyin: Tián Xīn Hōng Zhà Jī; literally: "sweet-hearted flying bombers").
Departure of Tong Tong
On October 5, 2007 Tong Tong left Hei Se Hui Mei Mei (including the Wo Ai Hei Se Hui show). It is rumoured that she left because of a rift with band leader Da Ya over an alleged affair with Tong Tong's boyfriend at the time, Hakka-Pac; other sources suggest that Tong Tong was forced to depart due to violations of her contract. Tong Tong reports that she began cutting herself during this stressful time.
Moving forward, Tong Tong has stated that she plans to concentrate on her singing and dancing.[4] She is currently working for Momo Kids, a Taiwanese television company featuring children's programming.
Name Change
Originally, the group's name, Hei Se Hui Mei Mei, is a pun on the words "Mei Mei" (Traditional Chinese: 妹妹; literally: "sisters; little girls") and "Hei Se Hui" (Traditional Chinese: 黑社會; literally: "black society; triad"). Later, after the group's move to Warner Music Taiwan, its name was changed to 黑Girl, and the English name officially became Hey Girl. The change in name resulted from the record company's concerns that scandulous rumors of other members of the show Wo Ai Hei Se Hui would be associated with Hei Se Hui Mei Mei (Hey Girl)
