Prince Chiu (born 14 April 1989) is a Taiwanese singer, actor, model, and television host. He is a member of a trio boyband, JPM, with Liao Xiao Jie/Liljay and his younger brother, Mao Di.
He is a former member of Lollipop, a Taiwanese Mandopop boyband, which consisted of six other members: Zhuang Ao Quan/Owodog, Liao Xiao Jie/Liljay, Yang Xiao Yu/Fabien, Liao Wei Lian/William, and Liu A-wei. They were all selected from Channel [V] Taiwan's reality show Bang Bang Tang (BBT 模范棒棒堂), which sought to create new male artists in the Taiwanese entertainment business.
Lollipop signed their contracts under Gold Typhoon (formerly EMI Capitol) and Channel [V] Taiwan in 2006. However, their contracts with Channel [V] Taiwan terminated at the end of 2009. From 2010-2015, Chiu worked with A Legend Star Entertainment Corp., a company founded by the former Channel [V] Taiwan director, Andy Chang. From 2015 onwards, he signed under HIM International Music.
