Xia Yang is the entertainment industry’s most down-to-earth top-tier star and award-winning actress. She can take a full-on tumble on the red carpet and still keep a straight face while turning it into a self-directed piece of performance art. She can also squat on set and compete with the extras for spicy strips, only to end up trending online.
