He HUANG (China)

Born and raised in China, Living in Australia, and now checking out NZ

He Huang grew up in a small town of Chongqing, China, a mountainous region, where her family had lived for generations with a strong passion for drinking, cursing and gambling.
Turns out it was the perfect setting to start a life in stand-up comedy, and after travelling the world - uni in Beijing, a Masters in Washington DC - she found herself in Australia. In 2021, she auditioned for RAW Comedy, Australia's premiere new talent contest, winning state finalist for Victoria before performing in the national final at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

However, it would be another audition that put He on the comedy map...
In 2022, He auditioned for the TV show, Australia's Got Talent, with her stand up routine becoming a viral sensation, with over 60 million views globally.

REVIEWS
"...a joyous and empowered celebration of sexuality, and a strong solo debut. ★★★1 /2" - The Age
"...with a breadth of material that keeps things interesting... this is a quietly impressive debut. ★★★1 /2" - Chortle

AWARD & NOMINATIONS
More success followed with appearances on the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Just For Laughs TV galas, and her full hour comedy tour, Bad Bitch, breaking sales records at Perth's Fringe World, culminating in a Best Newcomer nomination at the 2023 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and winning Best Newcomer at the 2023 Sydney Comedy Festival.
She has appeared on ABC, Channel 7, SBS and in 2023, made her debut on Network 10's Thank God You're Here.
Her irreverent blend of dry wit, sarcasm and hilarious observations of family life, cultural differences and language has made He a fan favourite, and will tour her brand new show Tiger Daughter Vs The World in 2024. He is just very thankful that her parents don't speak English.
