Three other household names also joined the ambassador list. Renowned anchorwoman Yang Lan was appointed the Expo's Image Ambassador, composer Tan Dun the Culture Ambassador, and athlete-turned-entrepreneur Li Ning the Health Ambassador.

The four, together with three previously appointed ambassadors - Chinese Kung Fu actor Jackie Chan, basketball player Yao Ming and master pianist Lang Lang - will help promote the international event in Shanghai, which starts May 1 and goes through Oct 31.
