The 29-year-old Penang-born actress is currently based in Taiwan. Lin came to fame in 2014 for her “holding things” photos, and her story has been covered by various international media. Throughout her career, she has released several singles including “Unpossesive”, “Right One to Love”, and “Change”. She recently released visual to her cute and sexy single, “Whoo”.

Fun fact: She was also nominated last year.

Shila Amzah recently achieved her biggest accomplishment yet – motherhood! Her first child, Seth Uwais, was born on 31st August, which makes him a Merdeka baby. A few months back, the 29-year-old singer also debuted her Malay rendition of “Speechless” titled, “Raungan Suara”, for the soundtrack of Disney’s live-action “Aladdin”.

Michelle Yeoh has been a busy bee. Following her critically-acclaimed performance as Eleanor Young in “Crazy Rich Asians” last year, the 57-year-old actress will be appearing in 2 more films this year – “Boss Level” and the romantic comedy “Last Christmas” (where she reunites with Henry Golding. When she’s not travelling around the world, stirring the wanderlust in us, she’s seen kiki-ing with her A-list Hollywood female co-stars for “Gunpowder Milkshake”.

5. Fish Leong (梁靜茹)

2019 has been a tough year for Fish Leong. After recent speculation that her marriage was on the rocks, the 41-year-old star confirmed that she and her husband of 9 years have divorced. When asked if a third party was involved, she declined to comment. The singer has been keeping herself busy though. She’s currently promoting her latest album “The Sun Also Rises” around Asia.

Who’s your favourite to win “100 Most Beautiful Faces”?

UPDATE:

6. Juliana Evans
