I have decided to do a quick piece on Liu Yi Fei 劉亦菲 (25 August 1987 - ) a Chinese actress who is quite well known for her portrayal of martial arts heroines in period dramas and martial arts movies, ranging from 王語嫣 in the Devils and the Demigods 《天龍八部》 Xiao Long Nu 小龍女 in Jin Yong's Return of the Condor Heroes to a part as 金燕子 in the Forbidden Kingdom 《功夫之王》 in 2008 to 聶小倩 in the 2010 version of Chinese Ghost Story 《倩女幽魂》 and a part in The Four 《四大名捕》which was released last year. Due to her part as Xiao Long Nu, she was given the nickname 神仙姐姐 "Sister Fairy". Here are some stills that I particularly like from some of her past movies.
Background: Liu was born in Tongji Hospital in Hubei and her birth name was "An Feng". She is an only child. Her father is An Shaokang (安少康), a 1st Secretary in the Chinese Embassy in France and a French language university professor, while her mother is Liu Xiaoli (刘晓莉), a dancer and a stage performer. Her parents divorced when she was 10 years old and she was raised solely by her mother. That same year, she adopted her mother's family name and changed her legal name to "Liu Ximeizi" and began modelling, along with training in singing, dancing and playing the piano. When she was 11 years old, Liu and her mother moved to New York City, where she attended Louis Pasteur Middle School 67. She returned to China in 2002 to pursue an acting career and adopted the stage name "Liu Yifei" (劉亦菲). Several weeks later, Liu was accepted into the Performance Institute of Beijing Film Academy at the age of 15, and graduated in 2006. She has American citizenship.
