Renowned Hong Kong artiste Jacky Cheung is currently on his 60+ Concert Tour, which kicked off in Macau on June 9, 2023 and will culminate in a grand finale in Hong Kong on Jan 24.

With the tour approaching its conclusion, the 64-year-old shared that he has some "unemployment anxiety" – a feeling not at all foreign to him.

"After the end of each tour, there's always this period of worry about having no work," he said at one of his recent shows.

Cheung also reflected on life in his 60s, candidly admitting that he initially worried about his physical condition and whether he could keep up with high-energy performances.

But after embarking on this tour, the singer found that his body is still in tip-top form – so much so that he even wowed fans by performing a split on stage, flaunting his strength.

"Reaching your 60s isn't as intimidating as it seems. With confidence and healthy habits, you can still perform at your best," he said.

Looking ahead, Cheung hopes to continue commanding the stage and connecting with fans well into his 70s.

He added that he plans to maintain a healthy lifestyle, exercise and prepare himself for future performances.
