Josie Ho Chiu-Yi (zh-c|c=何超儀; born December 26, 1974) is a singer and actor from Hong Kong. She is the daughter of the famous entrepreneur Stanley Ho and wife of Alive band member and actor Conroy Chan Chi-Chung. She was involved in numerous movies, TV commercials, TV dramas, and singing performances.

She has played many challenging roles including a few as prostitutes in several movies. Some roles she played contrasted strongly with her own wealthy upbringing as a billionaire's daughter.

For the film "Exiled", Ho did not work with a script. Recalling the experience in a recent interview, she said of director Johnnie To, " [He] basically tells actors what to do...Johnnie wants us to come to the set with our mind completely clean, like a white piece of paper. That way, he can draw whatever he wishes on us." She did not find this method of improvisional acting difficult.
