Lost in Translation Series 2008

One thing that's great about Asia is that you get to see how all our favorite hollywood stars whore themselves out to pick up a little extra scratch. Throughout this year we have been capturing these gems as we've come across them in our travels and now we serve them up for your pleasure...


who knew elle woods could sell a pen!


the box office wasn't the only place the dark knight made money...


a little hard to see, but this is Fergie applying her hump to some cell phone pimping...


Patrick Dempsey...seriously, when did this guy become a sex symbol?




and lest we forget... prior to the Lasik, plastic surgery, and the personal groomer...


Rachel Weisz on the side of a bus in Singapore...WE KNOW YOUR SECRET NOW RACHEL!!!


Damn you George Clooney, even when you are whoring yourself you look cool...


Kylie Minogue... not even sure what she's selling but I hear she's a nice person plus she only has one boob so god bless 'er...


Nicole Kidman, fellow Aussie is never shy to lend her pretty face to an ad for money, be it for a watch...


or perfume...


Teri Hatcher... does this say "desperate"????


OH ANNE WHAT WOULD THE GENOVIANS SAY!!!!!!
(anne h. is a nerd too btw...despite the repackaging)



It's ok Cindy b/c at least you are a model and it's hard to get gigs when you are an old model so more power to you (plus you are in good company with George and Nicole)


Antonio Banderas is this the best you can do? I don't even understand WTF he is doing in this ad besides making a bad-ass pound-me-in-the-rear face


Jude pulls this one off...the whole "english" thing


Padme, the last good movie you were in was "the Professional". I don't think so, Ms. Coco Mademoiselle. Despite the *almost* reveal of your tiny boob.
UPDATE
I have failed! The shill pictured below is in fact not Natalie Portman but "Ol'UnderbiteFace" Keira Knightly! Apologies for the error and continued boob smallness.... thanks much to my sis Leah for setting me straight, as well as providing the "Ol'UnderbiteFace" moniker!



Charlize Theron... so hot that even when she got really ugly for Monster it just made people think she was hotter. Plus, she's got all those paparazzi photos of her on a beach topless smoking weed out of an apple. Charlize, you can do whatever you want as far as I'm concerned....



In Lost in Translation land...there is no more profligate pimpstress than our dear Gwynney. Her radiant mug IS EVERYWHERE..

pimping high end, Italian country fashion...




or perhaps beauty products...selling the dream that maybe one day you too can be as perfect as she is!


or something in a christmas, perhaps???


winner for most Ghetto lost in translation photo: EVA LANGORIA...

...captured for your pleasure on the side of an ICE CREAM FREEZER in Singapore:

"my name is Eva and I can't resist big black magnums and easy money...."




The author and his fave subject... see you in 2009!

At the Races

Horseracing is very popular in HK and other Brit colonies. The race track at Happy Valley has races twice a week and we finally went - god we are lazy!



Setting up the starting gates




Leading in the horses




Ready, Set . . .








And the refreshments . . .

More Xmas, Mall Style

So returning home after a lovely Xmas Shabu Shabu lunch at a friend's house, we went through one of the local malls to transfer to the subway. Imagine our delight in catching the Circle of Inspirations Christmas show, featuring a ferris wheel, ballerina angel, lip-synching Eurasian orphan waif, crowns, acrobats and a tight rope walker . . . St. Nick definitely needs to up his game.

Christmas, Mall Style

All holidays are big business in HK - Unfortunately, sometimes the message gets lost . . .










Note the animatronic leg that moves up and down to do the cancan
