Could you perhaps be thinking of Namie Amuro?

"Namie Amuro (born September 20, 1977) is a Japanese pop singer and
Japanese idol originally from Naha, Okinawa, born to a Japanese father
and a half Japanese/half Italian mother. Debuting in 1992 in a girl
group named Super Monkeys, she struggled to reach the top until the
release of "TRY ME ~Watashi wo Shinijite~" in early 1995 which
catapulted her into superstardom. Leaving the group the same year and
joining forces with top producer Tetsuya Komuro, Namie went on to
become a cultural phenomenon. Now after performing for well over a
decade, she continues to be one of Japan's biggest pop acts."

Looking forward to your clarification.

Best regards,

Thank you very much for the hint. Unfortunately, the person I'm
looking for is not Namie Amuro.

The singer whom I'm looking for may be a member of certain group or
may be a background chorus musician. Her Japanese nickname can't be
popular. She is fluent in English and a language used in China or
Taiwan or Hong Kong. She is not fluent in Japanese.
