The daughter of an English father and a Burmese mother, Me Me Lai was born in Burma in 1952. Little is known about her childhood. She moved to England in her teens and began working as an actress, appearing in bit parts on television and in low-budget British films, most notably in Au Pair Girls (1972). In 1972 she appeared in Mondo Cannibale (1972), the first of several "cannibal" movies filmed in Italy.
She returned as the lead female native girl in Ruggero Deodato's Ultimo mondo cannibale (1977) and Umberto Lenzi's Levend opgegeten door de kannibalen (1980) (her death scene in the former was re-used in the latter). Of her small movie roles, she is perhaps best known as a Chinese hooker in the Peter Sellers comedy Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978). During the 1980s she was again cast in various small roles before she left the movie business.
She has recently embraced her acting past, particularly the cannibal films, and appeared at film festivals and conferences around Europe and the US, including Spaghetti Cinema with Ruggero Deodato in May 2014.
