No More Dog Soup

Dogs and cats may finally be able to breathe (literally) in China. The government is contemplating a legislation prohibiting people from, yes, eating them. As a huge dog-lover myself, I wanted to turn to a nearby furry friend for a high-five. Dogs and cats have been enjoyed on dinner tables for a very long time, ...

Baby “Fish Boy” Grows Scales All Over his Body

My heart aches for Song Sheng, known as “Fish Boy” in his hometown of Jinhu, eastern China. 

Days after his birth, the fourteen-month-old began suffering from Lamellar ichthyosis.  A terrible, genetic skin disorder that causes the little guy’s body to develop scales since he has no pores.  The disease is so rare, “it strikes only one in ...

They just don’t make t.v. shows like this anymore. Jimmy Fallon brought back the cast of 90’s hit sitcom, California Dreams and it made me remember the good times where I used to chill back with a ham sandwhich and a Juicy Juice drink everyday at 4 p.m. to catch the show. Jennie Kwan, who ...

Heather Park sexes it up

East Coast’s Heather Park has released the MV for her first single, “Trust You” off her sophomore release, “Stay” and boy oh boy does she go sexy on this one. The song is a “tale of love gone wrong held together only by lust.” Sensual! Park’s voice is incredibly easy on the ears and if ...

Lisa Ling reports to Oprah about China’s “Beauty Boom”

While the starring water-cooler fodder of yesterday’s Oprah episode seemed to surround Jessica Simpson’s take on John Mayer’s most recent attack of verbal diarrhea, I chose to focus on the infinitely more fascinating topic of China’s massive physical attraction transformation.
For her “Beauty Around the World” assignment, Lisa Ling traveled to her motherland and discovered an eye-opening (literally & ...

Gotta catch em’ all!

Youtube singer/filmmaker, Scott Yoshimoto knows how to edit a damn video. Being an editor myself, I know the amount of hard work and patience it takes to make a single video stick out and Yoshimoto’s new “Pokeman” MV with Jason Chen has all the things I love in a Youtube video. Creativity, humor, and sweet ...

#1 tasty treat at the Olympics is Asian…ish

Oh, Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, you have been amazing so far, and I extend my most snazziest hat off to you for being so generous to the Asian-kind…on AND off the competition venues.
While the athletes are duking it out for one of those shiny medals, spectators are lining up for hours, all the live ...

Kirsten Dunst is Turning Japanese?!

She may think so, but I don’t. Another starlet has taken to making a fool out of herself for whatever odd reason, and this time its Kirsten Dunst. There’s a definitely a whole lot of “oh no she didn’t” in this video and while I totally respect Anime/Lolita culture, I really don’t understand why they ...

Stop Puppy Mills

I have an immense love for animals and though this has absolutely nothing to do about Asian Americans, I feel it’s important enough to put up on this site. From now on, you’ll be seeing various informations about different charities in which you can help out and donate to.
Humane Society on puppy mills:
