Biography

With both her parents as celebrities, it is no surprise that Tay Ying has contemplated a career in acting. Her pleasing appearance led her into spending her teenager years modelling for commercials and magazine covers. In 2017, she made her on- screen debut in While You Were Young where she acted as a model, alongside with the other new generation artistes. Two years later, she was starred as one of the main characters in the Channel 8 Martial Arts blockbuster drama, The Good Fight. Her versatile fighting moves in the drama garnered her good reviews. Bilingual in both English and Mandarin scored her the role of a female lead actress for a Channel 5 English drama, Slow Dancing which is based on the best- selling e- book by Singaporean writer, Noelle. It was a milestone for her as she played two different roles in the show. While Tay Ying works hard for her acting career, dancing remains as a point of pride for her since young as she practices the dance moves in her spare time and was a former member of the Temasek Polytechnic Dance Ensemble (TPDE). Her passion towards dancing continues after schooling, as she recently forms a band named TTYL with her fellow artiste friends, which specializes in Kpop dance.
