A star of stage and screen in her native China, Bai Ling is poised to match her homeland success here in America.

Recently, Bai Ling completed a starring role in Robert Halmi's miniseries, The Monkey King. In this lavish version of the Chinese fairy tale, Bai Ling plays Kwan Ying, a mystical goddess who must choose between her sacred powers and earthly love. NBC will air this event, which co-stars Thomas Gibson and Russell Wong, in the spring of 2001.

Bai Ling was last seen in a starring role opposite Jodi Foster and Chow Yun Fat in Andy Tenant's Anna and the King. In this dramatic retelling of The King and I, Bai Ling plays Tuptim, the King's beautiful young concubine, who defiantly pursues her true love with tragic consequences.

She was recently opposite Will Smith in Barry Sonnenfeld's Wild, Wild West with Kevin Kline, Kenneth Brannagh and Salma Hayek, as Miss East, the cunning Asian seductress.

In 1997, Bai Ling won the coveted role opposite Richard Gere in Jon Avnet's thriller, Red Corner. She starred as the court-appointed defense attorney to Gere's character, who is accused of a brutal murder during a business trip to China. Critics across the country cited Bai Ling's "mesmerizing," "powerful," and "luminous" performance. She received numerous accolades, including the prestigious 1997 Breakthrough Award from the National Board of Review. She also garnered the Discovery Star of 1997 awarded by the Hollywood Women's Press Club for their Golden Apple Awards. To cap off that already incredible year, Bai Ling was selected as one of People magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People in the World."

Born in the Szechwan province of The People's Republic of China, Bai Ling's first exposure to acting came at the age of 14, when she served a three-year stint in the Chinese Army as part of a performance troop entertaining soldiers in Tibet. The experience allowed Bai Ling to cultivate her musical skills, which, in turn, have resulted in her amazing ear for dialects. She went on to refine her craft with the Szechwan Theater Company, where she came to the attention of both traditional and progressive Chinese directors. Bai Ling was cast in a variety of film roles, from naive peasant girl to pop singer, culminating with her convincing portrayal of a mentally ill young woman in the critically acclaimed contemporary Chinese drama Arc Light.

Since relocating to the United States as a Visiting Scholar with NYU's Film School, Bai Ling has transformed herself from traditional Asian beauty to contemporary American girl. While developing her remarkable facility with the English language, Bai Ling has worked with such prestigious filmmakers as Ang Lee in The Wedding Banquet, Oliver Stone in Nixon, and Terence Malick in the Brooklyn Academy of Music's production of his play, Sansho The Bailiff. She starred as a proper Chinese daughter in the American Playhouse production of Nobody's Girl for PBS, as a funky downtown diva in the independent gem Somewhere in the City, and as the mystical villainess in Alex Proyas' dark thriller, The Crow.

Bai Ling's other credits include the independent love story, Row Your Boat, opposite Jon Bon Jovi, and an extraordinary two-hour season finale of the acclaimed TV series, Touched by an Angel.

Carrie Ann's impressive background in choreography gives her the confidence to put forth her opinions and take no prisoners. Although she takes enormous pleasure in seeing non-dancers commit themselves to such a brave task, the celebrities are going to have to work hard to impress this tough cookie.

Vanessa Mae

2005-11-14T10:23:00.000-08:00

Vanessa-Mae Vanakorn Nicholson was born October 27, 1978, in Singapore. Incidentally, she shares a birthday with the classical composer, Paganini. The daughter of a Chinese mother and Thai father, Vanessa relocated to London at the age of 4 with her mother.

By the time she was 3 years old, Vanessa was already taking piano lessons, and 2 years later, she began to study the violin. Despite her multi-talent at playing both the piano and the violin, Vanessa decided to focus on the violin, ironically after winning a prize at the British Young Pianist of the Year Competition.

Vanessa Mae might not be the world's most renowned celebrity, but among violinists she pales only to Itzhak Perlman for name recognition. The young prodigy has created a new style of music mixing classic instrumentals with contemporary beats to become a "techno-acoustic fusion violinist". Not only is she talented, but Vanessa Mae is extremely prolific. Before the age of 20, she had already released 15 albums.

The new style of instrumental pop hasn't been a success with music critics and classical purists who blast Miss Vanessa constantly for degrading the value of violin playing. The Singapore-born, London-raised beauty couldn't care less about critics though, she considers them the rejects of the music industry who didn't have enough talent to succeed. She certainly has the leverage, after all, her 1995 album The Violin Player sold 3 million copies, and was in the Top 20 in 25 countries. In 1997, Vanessa also added singing duties to her resume, releasing a poppy album in which the focus was her voice.

She played with the London Philharmonic at 10, toured with the London Mozart Players at 12, and recorded her first classical album at the age of 13. Talent? It's safe to assume that the answer is "yes".

In 1997, Hong Kong honored Vanessa by inviting her to perform at the Hong Kong to China Re-unification Ceremony, the only non-Chinese performer that night. Among her other notable accomplishments, she worked with Janet Jackson on the song "Velvet Rope". In 1997, Vanessa-Mae won the World Music Award for Best Selling Classical Artist and her albums have sold close to 10 million copies combined.

Her fame, though, is limited to the Far East and the UK. She has yet to make any kind of impact in the world's biggest music market, the United States.
