Regular Celebrity Guest
= Foreign Celebrity Guests
=Although the competitors typically come from various regions and backgrounds within China, there have been a few foreign competitors who have competed on the show. Some have continued on to appear in numerous other shows including singing competition shows, game shows etc. A few have used the platform to launch their own TV shows. Some of these contestants include Daniela Anahi Bessia, Meilanie Neilan, Marie Smurthwaite, David Jameson Harris, Paul Just, and Chloe Hurst.
The foreign talent has a special place on TV in China. Some shows focus specifically on foreign guests (e.g. Informal talks, Beijing Guest) and some of those guests make a life long career out of it (e.g. DaShan a.k.a. Mark Rowswell).
