Wu Yi Fan[6] (Chinese: 吴亦凡, pronounced [ǔ î fǎn]; born November 6, 1990), known professionally as Kris Wu, is a Chinese Canadian rapper and convicted serial rapist.[7] He is a former member of South Korean-Chinese boy band Exo and its subgroup Exo-M under SM Entertainment, before leaving the group in 2014.[8] Wu was active as a solo artist and actor in Mainland China, and had starred in several number-one box office hits including Mr. Six and Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back, which are among the highest-grossing Chinese films of all time in China. He made his Hollywood debut in XXX: Return of Xander Cage.

In 2021, after rape allegations emerged on Chinese social media,[9][10] Wu was investigated by the Chinese authorities. He was subsequently sentenced to 13 years of imprisonment for forcing three intoxicated women to have sex with him on November 25, 2022, by the Chinese courts,[11] and was separately fined CN¥600 million (US$84 million) for tax evasion. In November 2023, he lost an appeal of the rape trial.[12]
