Kirsten Danielle Tan Delavin (Tagalog pronunciation: [ˈdelɐbin]; born May 1, 1999), popularly known as Kisses Delavin, is a Filipino former actress. She came to prominence in 2016 as a contestant in the reality television series, Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7, where she was second.

Kisses Delavin was born as Kirsten Danielle Tan Delavin on May 1, 1999, in Masbate, Philippines. At age 6, Delavin was diagnosed with viral encephalitis. Her mother describes her as a "miracle baby" as out of the eight pregnancies that she had, only Delavin survived. She is of Chinese descent.

Delavin attended De La Salle University (DLSU) to pursue a bachelor's degree in accountancy then placed it on hold when she joined Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7. In 2019, she returned to DLSU, where she studied towards a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration.

Delavin is currently studying contemporary dance at Martha Graham School in New York City.

Delavin began her career as a print-ad model for Natasha, a direct selling company carrying shoes, apparel, and accessories in the Philippines. She then subsequently had a short appearance in the drama series Pangako Sa 'Yo (2015).

In 2016, Delavin auditioned for the thirteenth season of the reality television series Pinoy Big Brother after she saw an advertisement on Facebook and was later on chosen and officially introduced as one of the teen housemates. On the late-night talk show Tonight with Boy Abunda, when asked by Abunda the reason she joined, Delavin said "to prove that she is ready to become an independent woman". She was later announced as a semi-finalist on the show and had to temporarily exit due to the program's format. During the show's finale, Delavin was announced as a runner-up, with her closest friend in the PBB house, Maymay Entrata winning the competition.

Delavin has appeared on episodes of Minute to Win It, Family Feud, Gandang Gabi, Vice!, Tonight with Boy Abunda, It's Showtime, ASAP, Magandang Buhay, Umagang Kay Ganda, Banana Sundae, Rated K, and Matanglawin.[citation needed]

Collectively known as KissMarc, they also starred in Young JV's music video for the song "Kulay". They appeared together on several online and print materials, public engagements, and ABS-CBN TV shows and movies. Despite the success, the team-up ended following a controversial interview in the online show, Kapamilya Chat.[citation needed] In October 2017, Delavin signed a contract under Star Music. She was the first official artist under the music sub-label, Star Pop. Tickets to her self-titled grand album launch in November 2017 sold out within 30 minutes. More than 15,000 units of her album were sold the day prior to its launch. She formally received her Gold and Platinum Awards from Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI) on the January 21, 2018, episode of ASAP.
