BEIJING, April 20 -- Faye Wong, the pop queen who quit showbiz for her family, may return next year to sing the theme song for the Beijing Olympic Games!

A staff member of Wong's husband Li Yapeng's company told Chinese Businessman newspaper that the organizing committee of the Beijing Games (BOCOG) has sent invitations to the singer, hoping she will sing the theme song for the upcoming games.

The staff member said the condition of her daughter, Li Yan, is improving. It's time for the pop queen to think about returning as a singer. The invitation from BOCOG is a good opportunity for her. The price for Wong's performance is rumored to have reached three million yuan.

Faye Wong, a Beijing native who shot to fame in Hong Kong, was hugely popular in the mid-1990s. She unofficially retired from singing in recent years after marrying actor Li Yapeng and gave birth to her second daughter, Li Yan. The girl was born with cleft palate, which was corrected by surgery in the US.
