Crouching Tiger, Hundred Million Dollar Whore?
Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi is demanding an apology from a Hong Kong newspaper after it published claims she had sex with disgraced Communist party official Bo Xilai for huge sums of money.
Apple Daily – repeating allegations on US-based news website Boxun.com – alleged the star of “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” and “Memoirs of a Geisha” slept with Bo at least ten times between 2007 and 2011.
The reports claim she negotiated similar deals with several other powerful men, including Bo’s close friend Xu Ming, a billionaire tycoon that the Chinese authorities are investigating for alleged corruption. They allege she earned around $US110 million from prostituting herself.
Who wouldn’t be a prostitute for that kind of money? It’s not like she was doing it for the crack rock.
