Gigi Lai Chi (Simplified Chinese: 黎姿, born on 1 October 1971) is a Hong Kong actress under contract to the TVB television channel.

She is the grand-daughter of Mr. Lai Man-Wai (黎文偉), who is a key figure of the first generation filmmakers, and have been referred as "Father of Hong Kong Movie" in Hong Kong cinematic history. Her aunt Ms. S. Lai (黎萱) is also a veteran actress.

In the past, she was generally a co-star rather than a female lead in most serials like Doomed to Oblivion. However, she has since risen to lead actress in all her dramas, and is speculated to the favourite of most TVB executives. In her recent series, including Healing Hands 3 (where she played alongside a star studded cast including Lawrence Ng, Bowie Lam, Moses Chan) and Dance of Passion, she plays leading female roles with many of the most successful actors of TVB.

Gigi released several albums during the mid 90's. She says that she actually likes singing (and dancing) more than acting.

She won the TVB Most Popular Actress Award in 2004 for her role in War & Beauty. This win was to become a hotly debated controversy (see War & Beauty page). Gigi has since become very popular with fans from Hong Kong and mainland and many Asian countries after the huge success of War and Beauty. She is now one of the most popular actresses in TVB.
