Ayu Ting Ting

Ayu was born in Depok, West Java on 20 June 1992 to a civil servant and his wife. She began modelling at the age of 5, and was introduced to dangdut around that time. Ayu began her music career as a wedding singer at the age of 14, earning Rp. 250,000 (US$28) per performance; that year she was also Miss Depok. In 2007 she recorded a solo album, Dilanjut Aja (Just Continue), with Akurama Records which included "Alamat Palsu" ("Fake Address") (written by a man from Tasikmalaya) and "Ting Ting". "Ting Ting" used the title as a euphemism for 'virgin', including lyrics such as "saya masih ting-ting / dan terjamin ting-ting" ("I'm still ting-ting / and guaranteed to be ting-ting"); she later added ting ting to her first name to create a stage name, at the suggestion of her producers.

In 2010, Ayu enrolled at Gunadharma University, taking a bachelor's degree in management. However, after she became famous as a singer she took leave.

In 2011, four years after its release, "Alamat Palsu" became popular, with covers by comedian Sule and singer Olga Syahputra. After her rise to popularity, helped in part by Syahputra, Ayu can earn Rp. 30 million for six songs.

Ayu married with Henry Baskoro Hendarso (née Enji) on 4 July 2013, and on 31 December 2013, she delivered Bilqis Khumairah Razak in Jakarta. On 27 January 2014 Ayu filed for divorce at the Depok Religious Court. On 1 April 2014 the court agreed to her request for divorce by verstek (without her spouse present), valid two weeks after its decision if it was not challenged by Enji.

In 2015, Ayu was in a relationship with Indian actor Shaheer Sheikh. The relationship lasted for four months before they broke up.
