youth programming, is proud to announce Malaysian artiste Hannah Tan as the new

A confident young
woman and a local artiste who is making waves beyond her native shores, Hannah embodies
the key attributes of Animax’s target audience, the youths and young adults
today. Her friendly and likeable personality, coupled with her strong will and
determination to succeed in her areas of interest, make her a fan and media
favourite. In addition, Hannah also possesses the elusive X-factor that has
made her a successful model and artiste, even becoming FHM Malaysia’s
sexiest woman in 2006.
A multi-talented individual with her second album to be launched soon
after the success of her first, Hannah is a singer-songwriter who composes several
of her own songs, which includes penning the lyrics. Hannah is not lacking in
the grey matter too, being a graduate in computer science. The prolific artiste
has also done several hosting gigs on various productions and fronted numerous
magazine covers including Her World, Hot! and Female.
With music and fashion being key interests of the youths and young adult
populace today, it is no surprise that Hannah is considered by her fans and
peers as an excellent role model given her numerous accomplishments in these areas.
Her drive to put her country on the world map and diligence to achieve her
goals are resonating factors with the youths of today.
“Animax is always looking out for young Asian heroes and heroines that
our viewers can look up to. Hannah Tan
is young, confident, and is someone who dares to be different and stands out
from the crowd. She has achieved a lot
at a very young age. Her entrepreneurial
spirit, drive and determination are qualities that will endear her to our
viewers who will undoubtedly embrace her as their role model,” says Ricky Ow,
General Manager of SPE Networks – Asia.
Hannah will present a series of vignettes for the channel, which will
include her portraying a fun and funky cheerleader as she introduces the
classic basketball series Slam Dunk in December. Viewers can also join her on a
city-wide hunt as she goes around the capital searching for unique French-inspired
clothes to present the anime series Le Chevalier D’Eon, a French epic set to premiere
on Animax in January.
“Not only does she love anime herself, Hannah is also the epitome of
Animax’s edgy and energetic spirit. She
is the first Malaysian talent we are bringing onto our channel, and I am sure
viewers from Malaysia and
even the rest of the Southeast Asia region
will be able to identify with her,” adds Ow.
So remember to catch Hannah Tan in action on Animax, as she presents a
host of entertaining and interesting vignettes on the channel. Be entertained
and inspired, only on Animax!
