  • http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/entertainment/144672004.htm Lucy Liu Thrilled To Drop Martial Art Roles February 26, 2006, 10:50:18 Liu Happy To Play The Girl. Actress LUCY LIU was thrilled at the chance to leave martial arts behind and just be a regular girl-next-door in her new film. The CHARLIE'S ANGELS and KILL BILL star, who shot to fame after appearing as bisexual vixen LING WOO in the TV series ALLY McBEAL, enjoyed the comparative freedom of her role as LINDSEY in new comedy thriller LUCKY NUMBER SLEVIN. She says, "For the past year I've been focused on doing more acting and less fighting, and it's been really fun. "I don't think it's a good idea to get stuck doing any one thing for too long. "It was so much fun to just be 'the Girl' for once, because the truth is, fighting's not my speciality." Meanwhile the actress was obliged to return gifts to friends who believed rumours she was engaged to ex-boyfriend ZACH HELM. The KILL BILL star, who has recently rubbished speculation of romance with Hollywood actor GEORGE CLOONEY, resented the media rumour-mill which caused her untold embarrassment. She says, "Zach and I were together for a long time, but we were never engaged. "I know it was reported that we were, which was unfortunate because I got a bunch of gifts from people saying, 'Congratulations on your wedding!' and it was like, 'We're not engaged.' "It was so awkward and weird."
  • I love how AAs with vested intersests are acting like they don't know how intraAsian Asian movies are these days. Carey whatshisface maybe doesn't know but I can't believe Lucy Liu doesn't know.
  • Wasn't it interesting how much the Asian actors liked working on a first class Hollywood production? I felt sad for them but I also felt something not so sympathetic about them. They'll say anything hoping that they can work on this level again but it's not their fault that the movie isn't popular and frankly, Black Americans have had no problem creating professional looking yuppie date movies (anything with Sanaa Latham) for themselves. Race is the place Memoirs of a Geisha does more than just offend its Asian American viewers – it rhapsodizes the disappearing Asian actress. By Kimberly Chun I grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii, just another Buddha head simmering under a tropical sun and bobbing in a Polynesian polyglot stew, ready to pour over a plate-lunch two scoops of rice and another of macaroni salad. Back then everyone I knew liked to play the Guess That Race game, which I'm sure everyone everywhere knows how to play, though perhaps only in Hawaii is it perfectly acceptable to ask someone within seconds of meeting them "whadda you?" It was a matter of social and cultural survival living in such a tiny, island-bound calabash of races: You needed to know what your unsuspecting listener was before you unleashed your most offensive "Portagee," or Portuguese, joke (the local equivalent of a Polish howler). Or bitched about some annoying, pasty Tokyo tourist. Or kicked off another Kill Haole (Whitey) Day (or its cousin, Slap a Jap Day). Traveling through geisha-central Kyoto a few months back, my Japanese mother continued to play Guess That Race, commenting to herself on the number of English-speaking Chinese bellhops and picking them out by appearance alone rather than accent. You can play it too on the site All Look Same (www.alllooksame.com), testing your ability to discern the differences between assorted tricky Chinese, Korean, or Japanese faces from behind the safety of your monitor. Which makes the recent splashy end-of-the-year prestige production of Arthur Golden's novel Memoirs of a Geisha even more bewildering in its naïveté. Doesn't director Rob Marshall realize how popular Guess That Race is, even on the increasingly multicultural and mixed-race mainland – and how jarring it is to see ethnically Chinese actresses like Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li, and Michelle Yeoh playing haute Japanese geishas (with the noticeable, token exception of Mystery Train's Youki Kudoh), phonetically squawking in pidgin English of varying intensity and quality – the worst of which emanates from the glaringly American hapa girl Zoe Weizenbaum. I guess Asians and Asian Americans should feel fortunate that, at the very least, Asian actresses were installed in the central roles of Memoirs, rather than, oh, Christina Ricci kitted out with the fake Japanese accent she "perfected" for the last Beck album. Nonetheless, it's surreal for Guess That Race-ists, watching clearly Chinese faces transposed on already well-stylized geisha paper dolls. Considering Japan's history as a colonializing power and its efforts to scrub its textbooks of shameful wartime atrocities in China and the enlistment of "comfort women" into sexual servitude in Korea, Memoirs' racial swap is like a bad ethnic joke with no easily parseable punch line. As Japan's waning movie industry continues to founder in the decadent throes of horror and fantasy (and is subsequently cannibalized by the Hollywood remake machine), are Chinese women's faces simply more commonly eroticized – with Zhang's face becoming a familiar standard of Asian beauty with this year's 2046, as well as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Rush Hour 2, Hero, and House of Flying Daggers? Is this yet another sign of China's rising economic and commercial power – as its actresses' dominance in Memoirs translates into a form of Japanese yellow (or rather, powder-white) face? The film wants to be your one-stop shopping spot for Asian femininity, a reductive Cliff Notes version of Kenji Mizoguchi's gently heartfelt stories of Japanese women. In contrast to Wong Kar-wai's more recent real-unreal ode to women, memory, and place, 2046 – Memoirs generally comes off like an '05 Japanese version of Flower Drum Song, a comforting, quaint Orientalist Cinderella story, set a safe, decorative remove from reality with a ferocious "they all look alike" track backward. Regardless of intention, the movie appears to be yet another bizarre, bass-ackwards love-hate letter to Japan: Any semblance of truth is again Lost in Translation and filtered through a tourist's perspective. It's a throwback viewpoint as blue-eyed, mutant, and faux as Zhang's colored contacts and Chiyo/Sayuri's stage-set world – batting coyly in backlash, about a decade after the '90s stateside emergence of Chinese actors such as Jet Li, Jackie Chan, and Chow Yun-fat and behind-the-camera counterparts like directors John Woo and Ang Lee and fight choreographer Yuen Wo-ping. Even Asian film-phile Quentin Tarantino showed more sensitivity and, yipes, subtlety, in casting Chinese American Lucy Liu as Kill Bill's half-breed assassin O-Ren Ishii, torn between her Chinese wuxia and Japanese samurai traditions of cinematic arterial spray. So where was Oren in 2005? Apart from the pan-Pacific, time-traveling lovers of 2046, onscreen Asian women seemed to be shifting into absence and dislocation this year – missing in action or sequestered with the missing mother of Hirokazu Kore-Eda's Nobody Knows and the vanishing wife of Jun Ichikawa's Tony Takitani. Instead of Guess That Race, I find myself playing Hide and Seek in the moviehouse. Rather than recalling a fictional, fantastic Memoirs of a Geisha, I'm looking for the real woman.

  • Yeah, otherwise Quentin Tarantino would have had to find an "authentic" half Chinese half Japanese (tsk tsk) for that role in Kill Bill. I like her crazy Chinese eys but that role makes me laugh. Sonny Chiba said nicely that she was hard working but Uma was lazy and I think she's worked hard at creating herself and deserves to be set apart from other Asian American entertainers who are kind of boring. I liked her in Payback because she was so cute - those crazy Chinese eyes - but I saw a movie with her and Jeremy Northam and I realized (I'm not a Lucy Liu'>Lucy Liu hater) that Lucy Liu'>Lucy Liu has work as a consumable of the American public but I can't picture casting her in anything Asian but I can picture casting Asians from Asia in nonnative Asian or nonAsian roles. There's a look that Asian American entertainers have that is really distinct. Lucy has her own look. I wonder what her Asian movie is going to be like. You know as the only one who doesn't have a foreseeable career in Asia then she was the only one who pointed a finger at China but she's not pointing the finger at the many many Asian American voices who were the first and the most scathing about the casting but that's where her "reaction" matches not China. How come she's not responding to the AA caterwaul?
  • Acutally, I agree what Lucy said that "I think that's reverse racism. I think Rob has an incredible vision and it doesn't matter. If you don't like the acting that's fine, but I don't think it's fair to go down to the core like that!". It's true "That limits actors in every possible way because they can just tear apart everything else that has happened such like Chinese actresses can only play Chinese, and Chinese-American can only play Chinese-American" Rick in Oz wrote: > http://breakingnews.iol.ie/entertainment/story.asp?j=200514450&p=zxx5y5z65&n > =200515336 > and Malaysian in Japan-set epic Memoirs of a Geisha, labelling it > "anti-racism". > China, supposedly because homegrown actresses Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li take > the roles of Japanese geishas. > unfamiliar role. > vision and it doesn't matter.

  • NY POST..PAGE 6 December 26, 2005 -- GEORGE Clooney and Lucy Liu appear to have rekindled their romance, at least briefly. The "Syriana" star and Liu left Downtown Cipriani the other night and began lip-locking in his waiting limo. "She looked like she was going to devour him," a witness said of the 37-year-old starlet. She and Clooney reportedly hooked up in 2000 after Liu plied him with oysters and champagne. Asked about the reunion, Liu's flack, Steve Huvane, eloquently responded, "It's none of your business." But Liu should not count on Clooney - we hear he's also close pals with Teri Hatcher.

Alot of us should do this more often especially Asian celebrities. Being politically incorrect isn't a bad thing as long as you're honest about stuff.

  • Why don't more Asian celebrities get classified as celebrity idiots, or Hollywood halfwits and other nifty titles of ridicule? Not that Asians should feel snubbed because few of us babble publicly like blooming idiots. I can think of maybe two, Yoko Ono has been saying and doing goofy things it seems like forever, and then there is Lucy Liu and I think she has stuck her dainty foot in her pretty mouth a couple of times over George Bush and the Iraq War.

  • http://jam.canoe.ca/Movies/Artists/K/Knightley_Keira/2005/10/09/1255234.html Knightley is one busy lady these days By ANN MARIE MCQUEEN -- Ottawa Sun BEVERLY HILLS -- Keira Knightley is one in-demand 20-year-old. The British actress was up all night shooting scenes for the second and third Pirates of the Caribbean instalments, with just enough time for a shower before meeting the press to talk about her newest movie, Domino. With two cans of Red Bull in hand, the fetching and cheerful Knightley describes her exhaustion while looking so fresh-faced one would think she was in bed sleeping -- and not up swashbuckling -- all night. "I was doing swordfighting and getting so tired I thought, 'I'm actually going to wreck myself,' and didn't hurt myself at all," she said. "But then when I got to the hotel this morning at 7, I fell out of the door of the car and cracked my knee on the side of the pavement." Knightley's career took off after she played a soccer player in 2002's Bend It Like Beckham. In addition to the first Pirates, she went on to shoot another half-dozen movies, including King Arthur, Love, Actually and, most recently, The Jacket. She had just four days off between her turn as Jane Austen heroine Elizabeth Bennett in Pride and Prejudice and Domino. The 43-day shoot was scheduled specifically so Knightley could squeeze it in. Domino, which opens Friday, is inspired by real-life model-turned-bounty hunter Domino Harvey. The 35-year-old daughter of famed British actor Laurence Harvey died of an overdose in June while out on bail and under house arrest pending trial on drug dealing charges. Because she had so little time to prepare, Knightley was left wondering just how she would morph into tough-as-nails Domino from refined and sensible Bennett. Knightley said she was "freaking out" every time director Tony Scott would call her on Pride to talk about Domino, finding herself for the first time unable to wrap her head around the character. "Then I was passing a hairdresser's and I thought, 'Right, this is how I'm going to do it, I'm going to cut Lizzie Bennett out of my hair,' " she said. Studied tapes She talked to Harvey twice on the phone before she died, and studied taped interviews and pictures. But lack of prep time and the film's fictional elements meant Knightley framed Domino largely on her own. "Actually, Tony said right at the beginning 'just make up your own character,' so actually I based it on my best mate Bonnie because she was around all the time when I was doing the other film and I could look at her." Knightley did cut her hair -- though she was sporting long, straight extensions by the time it came to promote both movies -- and left Bennett behind, big-time. Body-baring outfits, dark eye makeup and a permanent sneer also helped her embody the gun-toting Harvey. As Scott makes clear from words which flash across the screen during the opening moments of Domino -- "based on a true story ... kind of" -- he has not made a biopic. After rejecting two more linear, realistic s as "boring," Scott tapped screenwriter Richard Kelly (Donnie Darko) who conjured up the frenetic tale while sitting in the U.S. Department of Motor Vehicles. A real-life attendant named Lateesha (played by zaftig comedian Mo'Nique Imes-Jackson) was his inspiration for the movie's outrageous plot-turning character. The unlikely caper was then shot in Scott's signature jumpy, multiple-camera format, featuring a large and bizarre cast. Mickey Rourke and newcomer Edgar Ramirez round out Knightley's bounty team while dozens of real 18th Street gang members stepped in for a tense stand-off scene in the movie; Christopher Walken, Dabney Coleman, Lucy Liu and Mena Suvari all have small but memorable parts. Reality show hosts To take Domino's fictionalized reality a step further, Beverly Hills 90210 graduates Ian Ziering and Brian Austin Green turn up to play themselves as hosts of a reality show named Bounty Squad. Kelly, a fan of 90210, insisted the pair stay in the movie even when New Line execs weren't convinced they were necessary. Ziering jokes that when he got the , he asked his agent "How much am I going to have to pay them to be in this movie?" "It was the most random thing that could have happened, but it was something I hoped for," says Green. "I figured if Tarantino was a fan of Travolta, there's gotta be somebody that's doing well in this business that actually liked 90210." Though Harvey isn't here to comment, several reports from unnamed friends since her death suggest she wasn't happy with the movie's liberties. Scott scoffs at reports she felt sold out by the film, angry particularly at its depiction of her as heterosexual. In life she had relationships with women; on screen Knightley-as-Harvey goes topless for a steamy desert sex scene with Venezuelan co-star Edgar Ramirez. Domino doesn't touch on her drug problems or early death; Scott says again, the movie is based on real people but is almost entirely fiction. Scott says Harvey never saw the finished film but watched many sequences and was there on the final day of shooting. "It's been misreported by the press, saying she didn't like it and she's pissed off that we didn't represent it in the right way," says Scott. "And everything she saw she loved." Harvey also wrote and sang the track Heads You Lose, Tails You Die, which plays at the beginning and end at the film. "That was her motto for life,"said Scott. As for rumours he shifted the film's opening date to capitalize on Harvey's death, Scott says he only moved it up avoid competing with Knightley's Pride release Nov. 18. Domino Harvey's father became a major star after appearing in 1959's Room at the Top and 1962's The Manchurian Candidate, but died when she was four. Her mother Pauline Stone, a Vogue model played by Jacqueline Bisset in the movie, later married Hard Rock Cafe chain owner Peter Morton. Harvey was expelled from four different schools, dabbling in modelling, acting, being a ranch hand and a firefighter before she found her niche: Hunting down thieves, drug dealers and murderers for a Los Angeles bail bond agency. Scott says he became like a surrogate father to Harvey during a friendship which started 12 years ago when he visited her at home on one of her many bounty-hunting breaks. "Her mom wouldn't let her live in the house with guns so she lived in an apartment above the garage. The apartment had AK-47s and fatigues and Soldier of Fortune magazines," Scott recalled. Like others in her circle, Scott worried about Harvey as she struggled with addictions, in and out of rehab before her death. "She lived a hard life," he said. "I wasn't surprised, but it still hurts."
  • Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore Wed LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actors Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher were married on Saturday, capping their celebrated two-year-long older woman, younger man relationship, two celebrity magazines reported on Sunday. Representatives for Kutcher, 27, and Moore, 42, could not be immediately reached for comment, but both Us Weekly and People magazine reported on their Web sites that the couple were married in Los Angeles area on Saturday. Us Weekly reported that the wedding was attended by about 100 of the couple's friends, including Moore's second husband Bruce Willis. Also at the wedding were actress Lucy Liu and Moore's three daughters from her marriage to Willis. Moore, who starred in "Ghost," "G.I. Jane" and "Striptease," first began dating the younger Kutcher in 2003, just as she was making a highly publicized return to the screen as a high-kicking villain in "Charlie's Angeles: Full Throttle." Kutcher, whose break came as a star in television's "That '70s Show," is co-creator of the MTV reality show "Punk'd." His films include "Guess Who" in 2005 and "Dude, Where's My Car?" in 2000. It was the first marriage for Kutcher and third for Moore. She was married from 1980 to 1984 to rock musician Freddie Moore and from 1987 to 2000 to Willis. People Magazine said Kutcher and Moore met at a dinner in New York City in 2003. After Kutcher began dating Moore, the magazine said "he quickly carved out a place in the lives of her three daughters by Willis -- Rumer, 17; Scout, 14; and Tallulah, 11 --who came to embrace Kutcher as a third parent, affectionately calling him MOD, short for 'My Other Dad."' The relationship between Moore and Kutcher has been seen by some in Hollywood as evidence of a liberating new trend in which older American women are dating younger men, challenging the traditional convention of May-December romances.

  • By FELICIA R. LEE, The New York Times Getty ImagesPaltrow is making her directorial debut behind the camera for the short film, 'Dealbreakers.' Gwyneth Paltrow yelled "Cut!" as if her life depended on it. Sipping hot green tea on one of the hottest days of the year, standing in a meandering Brooklyn apartment that had been transformed into a movie set, Ms. Paltrow was directing her first film, "Dealbreakers," a short about the dubious charms of dating, with no small measure of authority. At one point, standing at the monitor in a pink camisole that said "Mrs. Martin" (she is married to Chris Martin, the lead singer of the rock group Coldplay), Ms. Paltrow suggested a longer camera pan for a shot of Travis, a goofy hippie offering his date some gorp. "One more shot, then on to Opera Man," Ms. Paltrow said, referring to another bad date in the film, a 10-minute short about those dating moments when you realize it's not going to work, usually because of something your date has said or done. Such moments of command were occasionally offset by more maternal concerns. Joined on the set by Apple, her 14-month-old daughter, Ms. Paltrow looked on in delight as Apple splashed in what had been a bucket of ice for water and soda. Ms. Paltrow, who splits her time between London and New York, called the film a chance to stretch artistically and to help a good cause. The short was one of four stories made into movies by an advisory board of female executives and actresses in Hollywood, assembled to further the cause of women in film. The board chose from among 4,000 fact-based 750-word essays about life-changing events submitted to Glamour magazine by its readers earlier this year. Ms. Paltrow was the co-writer and co-director of "Dealbreakers" with Mary Wigmore, a close friend and filmmaker who is Apple's godmother. The Glamour "reel moments" entries included the usual tales of death and divorce and finding oneself after motherhood but also played with lighter moments of epiphany, like knowing when a date's number is up. The set of films will eventually be shown in 25 markets starting in October, and a DVD containing them will also be inserted into the December issue of Glamour. The magazine will also make a donation to FilmAid International, a charitable organization that uses film to help communities deal with disasters. In this case, FilmAid will use the money for women in refugee camps in Kenya. "The brand is about the empowerment of women," Leslie Russo, Glamour's associate publisher said of the magazine's involvement in the project. "Today, with the culture being so celebrity-obsessed, how do we extend that message? How do we support the telling of real women's stories in Hollywood?" Glamour picked Moxie Pictures, a bicoastal commercial and feature film production company, to develop the stories, produce the shorts and assemble the advisory board that selected the essays and helped to cast the films. The board included the actresses Katie Holmes, Lucy Liu and Julianna Margulies, as well as Meryl Poster, the former president of production at Miramax Films; Caroline Kaplan, a vice president at IFC Entertainment; and Cara Stein, the chief operating officer at the William Morris Agency. The winning essays were matched with female talent behind and in front of the camera, including, besides Ms. Paltrow; Jenny Bicks, the Emmy-winning writer and executive producer of "Sex and the City"; the director Trudy Styler (the mini-series "Empire"); and the actresses Rosario Dawson and Debi Mazar. Of the three other films, one fixes on a woman's quest to find the right little black dress, while another concerns a woman trusting her instincts on what's missing in her life. The last is about a housewife's accidental encounter with transvestites. Ms. Paltrow said that she and Ms. Wigmore were both drawn to the comedic possibilities of "Dealbreakers," and structured the film as a faux documentary about the dating adventures of Fran, a 30-year-old New Yorker. They shot the film during three recent long, hot days in New York. "It's been great," Ms. Paltrow said of her first effort at directing. "It's been really interesting to kind of get in here and see that I have an instinct for it. "I think I'm very sensitive to the actor's perspective," she continued. "Obviously, I've worked on 30 films so I think I've learned a lot about filmmaking through osmosis. I've spent basically 12 years of my life on film sets the whole time." Ms. Paltow, 32, who won an Academy Award for best actress in 1999 for her role as Viola De Lesseps in "Shakespeare in Love," is very much a child of show business. Her father, Bruce Paltrow, who died in 2002, was a producer and director; her mother, Blythe Danner, is an actress. Her brother, Jake, is a director. "My parents were very discouraging of me going into it," Ms. Paltrow said of acting as a career. "I think there was sort of the sense in the 60's still and the early 70's that show business was not as respectable a profession as some others and I think they wanted me to do something more intellectual." And yet, show business has treated her very well, indeed. There is already buzz about her next film, "Proof," which is set for a Sept. 16 premiere. The movie, one of the last projects of the departing co-chairmen of Miramax, Harvey and Bob Weinstein, is based on the Broadway play about a mentally ill University of Chicago mathematician, played by Anthony Hopkins, and his unstable daughter Catherine, played by Ms. Paltrow. Ms. Paltrow said she hoped to work again with the Weinsteins, who are starting another production company after they leave Miramax on Sept. 30. Despite her own star power, she believes the industry has a ways to go when it comes to women. "I think a lot of women writers in Hollywood write from their own experience," she said. "But normally in Hollywood those experiences get so kind of homogenized and put through the studio system that what started as a core idea from somebody's life often gets turned in a movie that you've seen a number of times. "The men in Hollywood make it hard for women. I really believe that. What it means is that it's kind of like the old-boy industries. It's mostly run by men." Ms. Bicks said that the television landscape had improved for women with the network success of ABC's "Desperate Housewives," and HBO's former hit, "Sex and the City." "It's made a difference in pitching stories about women," Ms. Bicks said. The Glamour project showed a group of talented women that they could handle jobs that some had not done before, Ms. Poster said. "I told Gwyneth she could tell people to move here, move there, without coming off as a fussy actress," she joked. With women now leading the studios at Disney, Universal and Sony, "someone said to me that the male studio head is becoming an endangered species," Ms. Poster said. She contended that the industry is much more female-friendly. Women aren't directing films in large numbers, she said, because it's an all-encompassing job that is not often compatible with the complexity of women's lives. Still, Ms. Paltrow insisted, "it takes women to write short films about women or features about women." "There's no reason why," she said, "if there's 'Wedding Crashers' for boys, there can't be something really funny yet intelligent for women, that has something to say for women."
