Leon Lai: Hong Kong's "Heavenly King" that millions of girls adored, now plummets

In the 1990s, Leon Lai "made waves" in Asia as a singer and actor. Despite his 50s, the career and performance of the one-time "four great heavenly kings" leaves many fans with regret.

According to Sohu, the Four Heavenly Kings can be said to be the pinnacle that witnessed the glory of Hong Kong's entertainment industry. "Singing God" Jacky Cheung, "King of Dance" Aaron Kwok, "Movie King" Andy Lau each dominated a field, while Leon Lai became famous later but rose quickly, being called "Prince" thanks to his rare, elegant and luxurious aura.

Leon Lai, born in 1966, is a famous Hong Kong actor and singer in the 1990s. The singer experienced a deprived childhood when his parents divorce.d when he was 4 years old. From then on, he lived with his father and immigrated to Hong Kong after the Cultural Revolution.

During his teenage years, Le Minh worked as a marketing staff at a mobile phone company. Encouraged by his colleagues, he signed up for the singing contest "Tai Hoa Tan Tu" and won third place overall. From there, the young man named Le officially entered the entertainment industry.

The actor has a very handsome appearance, once making Japanese diva Nakamori Akina tremble with embarrassment when standing next to him, staring at him until she lost her soul and affirmed "He is extremely handsome". Some of Leon Lai's colleagues also often commented that he is the most handsome man they have ever met.

According to Sohu, Leon Lai's beauty is still praised by the public, especially his music videos and movies. Leon Lai is the type that the more you look at him, the more beautiful he becomes, his aura is especially clean, even when he smokes, the actor still gives off a pure and innocent feeling. Therefore, Leon Lai is the dream lover of many girls.

During his career, Leon Lai is famous for works such as Sweet Love, Dragon King, God of Gamblers 3, Infernal Affairs 3... In 1993, he caused a stir with the movie "Yuan Zhen Xie", starring with Lee Ka-Hyun, Faye Wong, Chu Ren, Hong Han... Many viewers said they "lost sleep" because of the movie, moved by the image of a doctor with excellent martial arts skills, outstanding intelligence, and a kind heart that Leon Lai portrayed.

In addition, he is also a singer who owns many hit songs such as Nước Vọng Tình, Lời Tỏ Tình Mùa Xuân, Nước Mắt Tám Biệt,... which were once famous. "Thiên Minh is considered a "prince" because he possesses a captivating voice and a perfect appearance. Among the Four Heavenly Kings, the male singer is the one who attracts the most female fans. It is not surprising that after many years, he still has a large number of fans," commented Ifeng newspaper.

At his peak, Leon's popularity even surpassed that of the other three Heavenly Kings. Later, on an entertainment show, director Derek Yee asked a contestant: "How famous do you think you can be, as famous as Leon at his peak?"

However, Leon Lai's career could not last as long as his colleagues in the Four Heavenly Kings group. As he got older, the actor gained weight and lost his old charm.

Besides, Leon also got involved in a love scanda.l. In 1998, Leon met Shu Qi on the set of Crystal City and quickly fell in love with her. The actor dated Shu Qi for 7 years but was forced to break up. Leon's mother thought that Shu Qi had acted in adult films and was not suitable to be a daughter-in-law. Leon acted cowardly and listened to his mother. Later, the heavenly king even had a time when he was depressed because he missed Shu Qi but did not dare to bravely fight for love.

After that, Leon spent all his mone.y and energy to pamper Vietnamese model Lok Kee. He bought a villa worth 500 million HKD and a luxury car to pamper his wife, but in the end Lok Kee abandoned Leon. The marriage lasted 4 years, then the two divorce.d. Lok Kee said that she lived too quietly during her marriage to Leon, and had no say in the family. The actor accuse.d his ex-wife of being greedy for mone.y.

Failure in love, Lai Ming's career is not smooth. In recent years, the male artist has rarely appeared. His last film was Xiang Ye with a guest role from 2018. Before that, Lai Ming starred in the films Wang Dynasty Dich Nu Nhan: Duong Quy Phi (co-starring with Fan Bing Bing), Ye Khong Tuoc (co-starring with Liu Yifei in 2015) but did not create a buzz. In the past 5 years, no one invited the Hong Kong king to act in films because he was losing his beauty and acting ability also declined.

In 2017, Lai directed the film Wine War, which also failed in terms of revenue and reputation. Lai also founded the music company A Music to manage artists, but he himself could not help his own career, so the artists under Lai all left.

After 6 years of divorce, Hong Kong media recently released news that Leon Lai is dating a 32-year-old woman named Wing Chan, who has been married before. Leon Lai's new girlfriend is known to be an employee at his company. Leon Lai currently has a private married life with his wife and young daughter.
