Zhang Ziyi's kisses cause quite a stir | insight into gossip in China

Fodder for gossip. Apparently, Miss Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon herself, ZHANG ZIYI, is dating a non-Chinese man, and it's causing quite a stir in China (Source: Zhang Ziyi's mixed relationship - 10 Mar 2007 - Dim Sum: British Chinese Community website here):

"...it was a big splash when the gorgeous Zhang Ziyi was spotted watching the NBA intimately with a mysterious Western man! They kissed in front of the cameras, in the front row of the VIP seats. This caused a huge wave of speculation. There were some early speculations of "who is the man?" Some said he is a C-list French actor, some said he is a young entrepreneur and neighbour of US president George Bush...but the latest reports indicate that he is actually the New York investment mogul Aviv Vivi Nevo--an Israeli, aged 41, and one of the richest man in New York."

It gets better...

"Men in China have started an online campaign about her betrayal of Chinese men. It is such a phenomenon that the whole page of www.sina.com.cn has a special collection of responses from the society, with more than a dozen of articles and debates of whether the relationship is genuine, or what the reason is that she has to throw herself to a foreign rich man --is it just for the fame in Hollywood? See http://ent.sina.com.cn" (in Mandarin).

Sometimes....people really need to just get off the computer and have a life...on that thought----peace out!

The only response this sort of thing ever needs is Wang Fu's Yellow Fever. Classic.

Thanks for reminding us about that great romp from Wang Fu! Yes, true that, an absolute classic.
