黎明，B.B.S.，M.H.（英文：Leon Lai，1966年12月11日－），生於中國北京，香港著名演員兼歌手。原本父母打算命名為「黎捷」，後來還是決定採用響亮好聽的「黎明」作為本名，黎明原籍北京，4歲時移居香港。15歲往英國讀書，18歲回港。1986年參加第五屆新秀歌唱大賽，憑蔡楓華原唱的《絕對空虛》一曲參賽獲得季軍（同年文佩玲得冠軍、許志安得亞軍），隨即加入娛樂圈發展。90年代開始紅遍華人地區，名列「四大天王」之一，更演出多部電視劇及電影，成績斐然。
生平
黎明因電視劇《回到唐山》（黎明飾演關朝聰的無血緣兄長）主唱主題曲，由於甚受歡迎，在1990年中推出首張個人大碟《LEON》，憑《相逢在雨中》一曲嶄露頭角，並在電視劇《今生無悔》裡擔任主角及主唱插曲《人在黎明》、《對不起我愛你》。於1991年期間再推出了兩張當時極受歡迎的專輯《是愛是緣》和《我的感覺》，其中《我的親愛》一曲傳唱至街知巷聞，旋即成為香港樂壇炙手可熱的一線歌手。1992年開始與張學友、劉德華、郭富城被媒體稱作「四大天王」。[2]在當時和劉德華的路線相近，坊間封兩人是為偶像派「雙子星」。
在歌壇所獲之殊榮包括1993和1995年度《十大勁歌金曲頒獎典禮》的「最受歡迎男歌星」；和在《叱吒樂壇流行榜頒獎典禮》連續兩屆奪得的「叱吒樂壇男歌手金獎」和連續三屆奪得的「叱吒樂壇我最喜愛的男歌手」。
其後從影大銀幕至今，共獲得三次香港電影金像獎最佳男主角的提名。於2002年憑《三更之回家》榮獲第三十九屆《台灣電影金馬奬》「最佳男主角」。2004憑《大城小事》獲頒長春電影節最佳男主角。2008年憑《梅蘭芳》獲得星光大典港台最佳男演員。2010年憑十月圍城及火龍再獲國際大學生影像節最佳男演員。1998年成為香港十大傑出青年，2003年更獲特區政府頒授勳榮譽勳章及2009年授勳銅紫荊星章。
黎明於1999年宣佈不再於香港領取任何關於音樂方面的奬項，但依然熱心公益，現任「公益金董事」、“聯合國兒童基金會國際親善大使”，並繼續拍戲與唱歌。目前擁有自己建立的唱片公司A Music。
