Comment: I suggest getting rid of the entire 'Endorsements' section. It adds nothing in terms of notability, doesn't really belong in an encyclopaedia anyway, and cites several instances of passport.weibo which is not considered a reliable source.Also, Baidu Baike is a deprecated source and must not be cited.

Personal life
editCaelan Moriarty was born on April 12, 2001 in a military base in Cuba. Due to his father's work, he grew up all over the world from Virginia Beach to Spain, Hawaii, and Japan. Whilst attending Nile C. Kinnick High School in Yokosuka, he was scouted for Intersection by Avex. In addition to music and dance, his hobbies include photography, visual art, swimming and skateboarding.[2]
Career
edit2017-2020: Early career and Intersection
editCaelan started out as a model during middle school, which lead him to experimentally audition for a small unnamed idol group. However, Caelan was unsatisfied with the group's direction and left. A month after leaving, a manager from Avex approached his door "out of the blue" and offered Caelan to join a new boy group Intersection. The manager had come across Caelan's pictures online, and after months of studying Caelan's Instagram, the manager was able to locate his house and visit him, and successfully convinced him to join Intersection. Caelan states that "as creepy as it was, and the company sounded promising and I thought of this as another opportunity."[3]
In 2017 Caelan debuted as a part of Intersection with Mika Hashizume, Kazuma Mitchell, and William Aoyama with their first single "Starting Over", and went on to release 8 more singles and 1 album between 2018 and 2020. Caelan was the youngest member of Intersection, being only 16 years old at the time of debut.[4]
2021-present: Produce Camp 2021 and solo debut
editIn early 2021, Caelan and 2 other members of Intersection entered the Chinese idol survival show Produce Camp 2021, which premiered on February 17, 2021. He entered the show under the Chinese nickname "庆怜" (Caelan). Caelan placed 12th during the final elimination, and did not join the resulting boy band.[5] In the same year, he was awarded "Top Popularity Idol" at the InStyle China lcon Awards, "Most Popular Male Artist" at the OK! magazine Awards and "Top Popularity Male Artist" at the Yujian Fashion Festival. Caelan made his solo debut on October 8th, 2021 with his first single "Forever With You".[6]
On September 5th, 2022 it is announced through Weibo that Caelan will sign with the label RYCE Entertainment co-founded by Jackson Wang.[7]
After over a year of development under his new label, Caelan's first solo album The Half-Blood Prince was released on July 19th, 2024 and features 11 songs.[8]
Later in 2024 Caelan participated in the Chinese singing reality TV show Call Me By Fire season 4 which aired it's first episode on August 2nd, 2024. He joined as the youngest participant at 23 years old.[9]
