Perspective
Cheng was born to Hong Kong entertainers Lydia Shum and Adam Cheng. After her parents' separation, she was raised by her mother.[1][2] She gained early media attention for her struggles with weight and published a memoir, My Weight Loss Diary, detailing her fitness journey beginning at age 16.
In 2005, she portrayed Snow White at the opening ceremony of Hong Kong Disneyland.[3] Cheng released her first music video, "Depend on Myself" (靠自己), in 2006[4], and her debut album followed in 2011.
Cheng began acting in 2008 with a recurring role on the long-running TVB sitcom Off Pedder, also performing its theme song. She later starred in the drama Isolated Seven Day Romance.
Her 2015 single Are You Skinny Enough? addressed body image and received critical acclaim. In 2016, Girl God became her breakthrough hit, earning widespread popularity and several music awards. Cheng has since released multiple singles, including “@princejoyce” in 2021, and held her first Hong Kong Coliseum concert in 2018. She ended her contract with TVB in 2017 and established of her own company, Passion Fruit Records, in 2018.[5]
Since 2023, Cheng had been on a hiatus over nearly 2 years. In July 2025, she was expected to announce her return with Hunan TV’s Singer.[6] However, during a promotional video shoot for the program, she sustained facial and shoulder injuries due to falling lighting equipment. She was immediately hospitalized and eventually had to withdraw from the show.[7]
