Leng Yein has long been a household name in this part of the world — not just for her bombshell status, but also for her fearlessness to speak her mind.<\/p>\n

Not one to mince her words, Leng Yein is spunky to say the least. She is a classically trained pianist since she was five years old, a model, an actress, an entrepreneur, and now, ranked number eight on the World\u2019s Top 100 Female DJ list.<\/p>\n

\u201cI may not be the best in what I do, but I am better than most,\u201d says the busty beauty, who always has her eyes set on the prize.<\/p>\n

Hailing from Kuantan, Pahang, Leng Yein has always been making waves from young. She was an outstanding straight A student, infamous for being different, she has no problem being thrust into the limelight, and has learned to roll with the punches.<\/p>\n

When she was a teenager, her father lost his battle with colon cancer, leaving the family in dire financial\u00a0straits from the exorbitant medical expenses that the insurance company failed to pay.<\/p>\n

Being the eldest daughter, she rolled up her sleeves and skipped her tertiary education to support her family.<\/p>\n

In 2010, she had a fairy tale wedding, but it all ended two years later. She decided to rejoin the entertainment industry but had a hard time finding a footing. However, she picked herself up and charged on to built something even better.<\/p>\n

Leng Yein reveals everything to iMoney\u2019s editor, Iris Lee — from her challenging years after her father\u2019s death to the painful months after her divorce.<\/h3>\n
