Scrambled eggs take two...
The other day I posted about famous mixed Chinese celebrities. Well, today I was reading the British Born Chinese discussion boards, realised I missed out a couple of obvious candidates (serves me right for assuming good old wikipedia was the definitive list and authority on the subject!) so decided to do a second post in their honour as they deserve a mention!
Er, ok, yeah I mentioned him last time, just wanted an excuse to post another photo up of him and drool... haha... ok, I'll be serious now...
Alexa is a British TV presenter for channel 4 (Popworld) and MTV and also has a modeling career. She's currently dating Alex Turner from the Arctic Monkeys. Her mother is English and her father is 3/4 Chinese, 1/4 English.
Gok is the presenter of 'How to look good naked', a feel good Channel 4 TV makeover show encouraging people to dress for their shape and improve their confidence rather than go for drastic plastic surgery. Gok is Chinese/English mixed race and openly gay.
Who knew!? KT Tunstall, the singer songwriter from Scotland famous for the song "Suddenly I see" is 1/4 Chinese!
One for the girls here, Max is he son of Academy Award-winning British director Anthony Minghella and Carolyn Choa, a Hong Kong-born Chinese choreographer. His biggest roles are in films being released this year, such as Agora, How to Lose Friends & Alienate People starring Simon Pegg, and a segment of the dark comedy Brief Interviews with Hideous Men in which he narrates. Definitely an upcoming star and one to watch.
Ok, bit dubious this one, but Lisa of kiddie pop "Steps" fame, is 1/8 Chinese. Apparently her great grandfather, Chan Chin Lee, settled in Liverpool in 1911.
Ok no more from me for a few days as I am off to sunny IBIZA, so watch this space for some post party posts!
