Taiwanese television host, singer and actor Alien Huang died at the age of 36, according to Taiwanese media.
Huang, who was famous for co-hosting the 100% Entertainment variety show with singer Show Lo, was found dead at his home in Taipei’s Beitou District on Wednesday (September 16).
According to Taiwan’s Apple Daily, Huang returned home around 10 p.m. Tuesday. No one was home at the time.
He was found half dressed in the hallway near the bathroom by his father, who was looking for him to have lunch together, around 11 a.m. Wednesday. There were some external injuries to Huang’s head and some blood stains on the ground.
He was pronounced dead by paramedics who arrived at the scene. Police found no drugs, bottles of wine, or signs of fighting on the premises.
Preliminary investigations show that he died after slipping near the bathroom.
Huang, who had dated singer Rainie Yang in the past, was recently romantically linked with Taiwanese entertainer Wu Han-chun.
He was part of the Japanese-Taiwanese boy band HC3 in 2002 and the Taiwanese boy band Cosmo in 2003. Both groups have disbanded.
He began co-hosting 100% Entertainment in 2006 and was nominated for Best Host in a Variety Show with Lo at the Taiwan Golden Bell Awards in 2015. He left co-hosting the show in January 2016 to focus on his career as a singer and actor.
As an actor, he has starred in Taiwanese films such as Din Tao: Leader Of The Parade (2012) and Go! Crazy gangster (2016).
He has also acted in various Singapore productions: the Channel 8 period drama Joys Of Life (2012) and actress / director Michelle Chong’s film Already Famous (2011).
Chong paid tribute to her on Wednesday when she posted multiple photos of herself with Huang on Instagram. She wrote in Chinese: “Amazing. “You will always be the first protagonist of my life.” RIP”
His music label Rock Records issued a statement saying: “Alien, I hope that on your own planet you can make the music you want and enjoy your passion for drawing.”
Huang is the third artist to die at age 36 in the past three days. Both South Korean actress Oh In-hye and Japanese actress Sei Ashina died of an alleged suicide on Monday.
