Li Daimo (Chinese: 李代沫; pinyin: Lǐ Daìmò; born 9 May 1988 in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang), also known as Demon Li, is a Chinese singer who rose to fame after being discovered during the first season of The Voice of China.

Li learned clarinet and singing in his childhood, and attended Shenyang Conservatory of Music. He was overweight while a university student, but achieved a slim figure prior to his participation in The Voice of China through a strict diet[1] In 2012, Li took part in the first season of The Voice of China, singing Wanting Qu's You Exist in My Song (我的歌声里), and was selected to join the team of mentor Liu Huan.[2] He has since released 2 solo albums: "My Voice",[3] and "Sensitive".[4]

In July 2013, Li came out as a gay man, and gained overwhelming support from netizens on China's popular microblogging site Sina Weibo.[5]

On 17 March 2014, Li was arrested by Beijing police due to drug possession.[6] On 27 May 2014, the court found Li guilty, and sentenced him to nine months and fined him 2,000 Yuan.[7] He was released from prison in December 2014, after serving seven months in prison, earlier than his original nine-month sentence, due to good behavior.[8]
