EXCLUSIVE: Bai Ling shares with AC Team's Suzanne Kai some scary moments doing her own stunts for her fearless, no limits role as Ria in action movie CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE.
She
also
talks
about
lifting
her
'dark
cloud'
when
she
apologized
to
her
mother
country,
China,
and
her
next
big
role
in
a
film
directed
by
Taylor
Hackford.
Bai
Ling
is
also
starring
in
the
indie
film
DIM

which
is
an
Official

at
the
Newport
Beach
Film
Festival.
AC: Congratulations on your role in CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE.
In
the

you

toting
guns
in
both
hands!
Can
you
describe
your
character
in
the
movie?
Art Hsu shows off his acting talents in CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE, his first leading role in a major Hollywood movie.
He shares with AC's Suzanne Joe Kai his goal to avoid playing just another Asian bad-guy stereotype and how he turned his CRANK: HIGH VOLTAGE role into a 3-dimensional bad-ass, insane Chinese mobster with heart.
AC:
Congratulations
on
your
role
in
CRANK:
HIGH
VOLTAGE.
The
trailers

exciting!

screaming,
and
was
that
you
giving
the
"finger?"

Jeremy Lin graces the cover of the November issue of GQ Magazine, hitting news stands October 23.
AsianConnections thanks GQ and Conde Nast for permission to use these knock-out images of Jeremy by Paola Kudacki/GQ Magazine.
The slogan on GQ's cover is "Look Sharp - Live Smart" - Jeremy Lin certainly looks sharp in these photos, he's one photogenic guy.
Lin talks with GQ writer Will Leitch who spent time with him when he was in the Big Apple to do the GQ photo shoot and attend other events. It was Lin's first trip to New York since it was announced that he would no longer be a Knicks player.
Lin talks about how the fans and Linsanity affected him, the Knicks, the Houston Rockets, and being Asian American.
Read the GQ article and view more images of Jeremy by Paola Kudacki and a behind the scenes video by Matt Baron here.
"There's a lot of perceptions and stereotypes of Asian-Americans that are out there today, and the fact that I'm Asian-American makes it harder to believe, even crazier, more unexpected," he says. "I'm going to have to play well for a longer period of time for certain people to believe it, because I'm Asian.
And
that's
just
the
reality
of
it."
It's
not
all
that
dissimilar
from
what
Yao
Ming
went
through.
