Amy Yip (born 10 July 1966) is a Hong Kong actress, model and entrepreneur. She was one of the leading sex symbols of Hong Kong Cinema in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Yip is best known for her lead roles in popular Category III films such as Erotic Ghost Story (1990), Sex and Zen (1991), and Robotrix (1991). Among these, Sex and Zen is the highest grossing Category III movie in Hong Kong box office history. ()

Probably the most famous Hong Kong Category III actress in History even though she hasn't made a film since 1997 when she quit the industry to get married. Famed for her tiny, slim body and disproportionately large implanted breasts, and the lengths she goes to to hide her assets. Her film roles often show self deprecating humour. She knows why she's there, she know's what you want to see, but through cleverly contrived camera angles you never ever see what she promises you might - the famed "Yip Tease". There have long been numerous rumours of an eminent return to movies which have yet to come to fruition.
