On November 13, 2025, Huang Xiaoming set social media abuzz with a birthday video on Weibo, sparked by an amusing “candle mix-up.” In the clip, as he blew out the candles on his cake, the number candles “4” and “8” were placed in reverse from the camera’s perspective — what appeared to him as “48” looked like “84” to viewers. This optical illusion instantly went viral, with netizens jokingly flooding the comments with “Happy 84th Birthday, Brother Ming!” Even media outlets joined the fun, calling it a “creative stunt” and quipping that “Huang Xiaoming turned 48 but ended up celebrating 84.”

2025年11月13日，黄晓明在微博发布庆生视频，以一场别开生面的“蜡烛乌龙”点燃全网热议。 视频中，他手捧蛋糕吹蜡烛时，数字蜡烛“4”与“8”因摆放方向形成视觉错位，自己视角的“48岁”在观众眼中秒变“84岁”。这一意外巧合让网友集体玩梗，评论区瞬间被“祝我哥84岁生日快乐”的调侃刷屏，连媒体也以“整活”形容其创意，直呼“48岁黄晓明硬是被自己吹成了84岁”。

Close friends and fans joined in the celebration with warmth and creativity. Actress Liu Yase left a simple message: “Happy Birthday, Brother Xiaoming.” His studio posted a heartfelt note, praising him for “expressing passion through his roles and meeting expectations with perseverance,” highlighting the charm that comes with maturity. Fans launched a “27 Years Since Debut” hashtag, sharing hand-drawn tributes and video edits of his iconic roles — from Emperor Wu of Han in The Prince of Han Dynasty to Wu You in The Sunshine Club. They compared him to a sunflower, saying he “keeps turning toward the light even in the dark.”

好友刘雅瑟简洁留言“晓明哥生日快乐”，工作室则以长文深情告白，称其“用角色诠释热爱，以坚持回应期待”，强调岁月沉淀后的成熟魅力。 粉丝则发起出道27周年话题，通过手绘贺图、角色混剪视频致敬其从《大汉天子》汉武帝到《阳光俱乐部》吴优的蜕变之路，更以“向日葵”作比，赞其“在暗处依然转身追寻光”。



Two days earlier, on November 11, Huang Xiaoming returned to his hometown Qingdao with his 8-year-old son, nicknamed “Little Sponge,” to attend a family birthday banquet. His ex-wife Angelababy (Yang Ying) reportedly sent a gold bracelet as a gift — a gesture that continued to draw public attention to his image as a devoted father. During the event, his playful “peace sign” and gentle gesture toward the birthday celebrant earned praise for breaking the stereotype of the “greasy middle-aged man.” Meanwhile, the official Weibo of his upcoming drama The City Builders used his birthday to wish a happy birthday to his character “Secretary Zheng,” hinting that the series is set to air between late 2025 and early 2026. Huang has repeatedly promoted the project, saying his collaboration with Zhao Liying was “full of understanding and emotion.”

11月11日，黄晓明携8岁儿子小海绵回青岛参加家族周岁宴，前妻杨颖委托赠送黄金手镯，这一细节延续了公众对其“慈父”形象的关注，而他在宴会上单手比耶、轻抚寿星的动作，更颠覆了“中年油腻”标签。 与此同时，主演剧集《造城者》官微借生日为剧中角色“郑书记”庆生，并附预约链接，暗示剧集将于2025年底至2026年初播出。黄晓明多次宣传该剧，称与赵丽颖合作“充满默契与感动”。

At 48, Huang Xiaoming continues to win praise for his youthful appearance and evolving public persona. From “domineering CEO” to “gentle father” and “humorous uncle,” his transformation has gradually reshaped public opinion. As he marks his 27th year in the industry, The City Builders may well become a new milestone in his acting career. And the self-deprecating humor in his birthday video perfectly captures his calm confidence — a man walking with ease between the worlds of light and life.

48岁的他因保养得当获赞“比同龄人年轻不止一点”，从“霸总”到“慈父”“幽默大叔”的人设转型更扭转口碑。 在出道27周年之际，新作《造城者》或将成为其演技新里程碑，而生日视频中自嘲的勇气，恰是他“在光影与生活间从容行走”的最佳证明。
