Actress Zhang Ziyi in paid sex scandal with Bo Xilai - reports

Actress Zhang Ziyi is allegedly under investigation by the Chinese government for being paid to have sex with disgraced former top government official, Bo Xilai.

She is reportedly barred from leaving the country.

Hong Kong's Apple daily and other Chinese media reported that the pair was first introduced by Bo's associate, Xu Ming, 41, who is the founder and chairman of Dalian Shide Group.

Sources say Xu confessed to paying Zhang 6 million yuan (S$1.2 million) in 2007, to have sex with her for the first time.

He later negotiated a deal for Bo to have sex with Zhang, for 10 million yuan (S$2 million).

Reports say the 33-year-old actress slept with Bo at least 10 times between 2007 and 2011 in Beijing.

The Chinese media also estimated that Zhang's sexual transactions with various rich and powerful figures have netted her 700 million yuan over the last 10 years.

This includes 180 million yuan in cash from Xu.

Her wealth from prostituting herself was not taxed, due to intervention from Xu and other government officials.

Xu reportedly pimped the Chinese actress out to two other high-level officials as well.

Media news outlets speculate that investigations into these allegations could explain why Zhang was absent from the recently concluded Cannes film festival.

Her film, Dangerous Liaisons, premiered at the festival, which her co-star, Hong Kong actress Cecilia Cheung, attended.

Zhang claimed she was busy shooting the film, "The Grandmasters", and was unable to attend the festival.

According to Hong Kong and Taiwanese media reports, the actress has remained uncontactable for comment on the allegations.

Zhang was previously embroiled in other scandals.

In 2010, she was accused of exaggerating the funds raised for the Sichuan earthquake. Instead of the US$1million (S$1.34million) announced in 2008, the star only managed to raise US$400,000.

In 2009, Zhang was accused of cheating a married businessman of S$41.2 million, with whom she was alleged to be sexually involved with, while still engaged to Israeli billionaire Vivi Nevo.

Nevo and Zhang reportedly split up in 2010.

Lock This Bitch Up!

To be fair, I am all for Asian actors getting meatier non-martial arts/prostitute roles in Hollywood these days, but just not this one. My most despised actress Zhang Ziyi has a movie called “The Horsemen” that is being released this week. It also starsDennis Quaid, who apparently is no longer an A-list actor since he’s forced to star alongside this shameless ho.

Bitch has no doubt worked her hardest to get this role, and if you squint hard enough you will see her name appearing next to Quaid’s on the movie poster. She plays a Chinese girl adopted by an American family who later becomes a psycho who kills for fun. In the trailer, which is now available online, bitch asks her victim if she “feels expandable yet”? Well, nauseous is more like it (at least for me).

Fortunately, this movie will be on a very limited release here in the States. I can’t stand to see the bitch’s face everywhere I go. There is one review from Variety so far and the critic hated it. He said bitch was “physically fierce yet unconvincing”. Ah, that’s music to my ears! I am glad someone else notices that this bitch does not know how to act. She is very opportunistic, I have to give her that. But acting? I can easily name a million other Chinese actresses that are better actress than her.

To be fair again, she did work very hard in learning English and it has improved much in the last few years. But that still doesn’t help reduce my resentment for her. Bitch needs to be locked up and sent away forever for committing the crime of torturing people with her forced and unconvincing acting skills, and unleashing her diva behavior onto the poor Asian crew who work with her.
