| '''Lee Chuang Rui''' (born February 11, 1990), also known as '''Shawn Lee''', is a Singaporean former actor. He first came into prominence for his award-winning performance alongside his friend and co-star Joshua Ang in the box office hit I Not Stupid.

|
| ==Career==
| |
| Lee was one of four child actors who successfully auditioned for the child lead roles in [[Jack Neo]]'s hit film I Not Stupid. His performance in the sitcom adaptation earned him a nomination for the Best Young Talent award, which he won, along with co-stars Joshua Ang and Eric Huang at the 2002 Star Awards.
| |
|
| |
| In the early 2000s, Lee also had roles in a few Channel 8 children's drama series. He also had an English speaking role in the Growing Years video series commissioned by MOE.
| |
|
| |
| He would go on to star alongside them in three more of Neo's films. He filmed his second last movie in 2007 before leaving the industry to concentrate on his A-levels. His last role to date was in Neo's new film We Not Naughty, which was released during Chinese New Year 2012 and features former I Not Stupid co-stars Joshua Ang, Ashley Leong, and Xiang Yun.
| |
|
| |
| Lee hosted the Young Talents Award with former co-star Megan Tay at the Star Awards 2011.
| |
|
| |
| In a 2009 interview with The New Paper, Lee said he was planning on pursuing a film studies scholarship at New York University. However, in a 2012 interview, he said he planned to go into banking after completing his studies, and probably take up roles only when time allowed.
| |
|
| |
| Lee was commonly confused with Aloysius Pang, a fellow child actor who was the same age. When Pang died in January 2019, some foreign news sources mistakenly reported that Pang was the one who had acted in I Not Stupid.
