Fun Facts

Angelababy was born in Shanghai but raised in Hong Kong.
She studied at Sacred Heart Canossian College Of Commerce.
She landed her first leading role in the 2011 movie "Love You You."
Her mother is Shanghainese and her father who is half German and half Chinese is from Hong Kong.
She has a brother named Keven Yang Fan (杨帆) who is seven years younger than her. He appeared with her in the MV released in 2012 for her movie First Time opposite Mark Chao.
She is one of the New Four Dan Actresses selected by the Southern Metropolis Daily in 2013 along with actresses Yang Mi, Ni Ni and Liu Shishi.
Chinese actress Angelababy grew popular with her English stage name instead of her Chinese name. Her stage name is a combination of her name Angela and her nickname Baby which was due to the actress having baby fat in her younger days and her classmates wanting an easier name to pronounce.
She chose the stage name Angelababy when she first started out as an emcee in a Disney program.
She and Janice Man who both started as models in Hong Kong used to be besties but it was reported that they seem to have had a falling out.
She grew in popularity after dating actor Huang Xiaoming. She went on to become a household name as the only female member of the hit reality show Keep Running, also known as Running Man China, since 2014.
She has starred in Hollywood movies like Hitman: Agent 47 and Independence Day: Resurgence.
She and Huang Xiaoming got their marriage certificates on May 27, 2015 and held a wedding so extravagant on October 8, 2015 that international media dubbed her as the Chinese Kim Kardashian. The two reportedly spent USD 31 million on the wedding.
Angelababy gave birth to her son Little Sponge (小海绵) on January 17, 2017 in Hong Kong. She used to call her husband sponge cake as its pronunciation in Cantonese sounds like Big Brother Xiaoming (晓明大哥).
Her fandom name "Yang Jia Jiang" stands for the "Yang family generals." It is due to Angelababy's surname being Yang. In history, the Yang warriors are a famous clan known for their glorious deeds.
It was announced on June 23, 2020 that Angelababy's contract with Mountain Top has come to an end after six years. She signed with Yuekai Entertainment in 2021.
