Click on Bai Ling to hear her sing “Call Me” by Blondie.

Shame on you, America! You voted off Kim Alexis and that girl Myrka. Have you no decency? But at least we still have Bai Ling to kick around. If she doesn’t win this thing — for charity, of course — then I may just have to swear off this whole show.Also, random question: what was up with all the shirtless dudes?

At least Larry Holmes spared us…

    ^ ah, yes..awesome (as the blood pours out of my ears)..is she singing in english? i think it’s a mixture of mumbling, caterwauling, and random english phrases that she thinks will sound good in the “song”

    That Gotti kid is kinda hot….is that awful of me to think? And what’s worse is that I don’t really find Mr Jr. hot anymore…..I think I’m developing a full blown case of pethisass….

    Maybe the shirtless dudes are trying to make a suggestion to Bai?

    If you see her over on Go Fug Yourself, it’s pretty obvious she needs little encouragement to shed clothing.

    I stumbled upon this show–when Bai Ling began singing it reminded me of two hoarse, mangry deranged cats having at it on the roof.

    America sucks. Don’t they know not to vote out the bad people!!! Especially when there are celebrities!

    However, I enjoyed Gotti’s performance of “Drop It Like It’s Hot.” Considering he has absolutely no rhythm at all.

    Horrible. Makes me want to see the show, but I live in Canada, so alas…

    Just one thing. Who the #%$! is she? I keep seeing her around, but has she done anything other than dress funny and humilate herself trying to “sing”?

    ^ i’m from america and i’m still not quite sure what the hell she does..i know she shows up at a lot of movie premiers and red carpet events in horrible clothing.. i believe she was in “crouching tiger, hidden dragon”..anyone know?

    Is she drunk?

    Not on Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (haha not every Chinese actor is in that movie)

    She’s very popular in China and HK, and I think she does a lot of arthouse stuff here. Which basically means she’s a scene whore.

    I need to share the Bai love. She’s awful but they all are and at least she’s inventive about showing off her body. (More Bai gushing over at my blog!)

    Carmine Gotti and his rubber face makes me worried.

    I think Bai Ling does something with fashion? I don’t even know.

    Yes, not every Asian was involved in that movie. Is it a crime that I, a fellow Asian, has not even seen that movie?

    And I believe she’s trying to sing French. Personally, I like Debbie Harry’s version better, but but *sigh* I guess it was a good attempt.

    I don’t know just how to put into words what i feel for Bai.

    I was watching with this on mute while i was on the phone and could merely marvel at the glory of her strutting her stuff on stage.

    Dare I say “Vote for Bai” buttons are in order? I mean I believe in the power of Bai!!! She could be the one to break Red China once and for all. She was in that movie with Richard Gere “Red Square”.

    Maybe if you reversed the whole ‘song’, you’ll find a hidden message.

    They need to remix her vocals. Vocals like that really need to be brought to the front of the mix!

    To be honest, I was so disturbed by Ms Lings shorts, that I did not notice her singing.

    And for that tone death judge to massage young Gotti’s ego by fawning all over him, assuring him that his talent for rapping will get him far in the industry.

    Way to give the talentless, grease ball false hopes.

    I thought his chubby, slow minded uncle was an embarrassment. Then this kid has to get up on stage and show us that the entire gene pool is waist deep in pathetic!

    Go away Gotti’s, and you should be ashamed of yourself VH1.

    Here’s a new article of Bai ling and Nick Carter:

    http://au.news.yahoo.com/051104/19/wnmo.html

    HONG KONG (AFP) – Chinese actress Bai Ling is so much in love with Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter that she’s ready to tie the knot, a press report has quoted her saying.

    The 35-year-old, known for her sometimes skimpy outfits, said she has been seeing Carter, 10 years her junior, since they met recently in a charity event in Malaysia, the Apple Daily reported.

    Bai Ling said Carter, who ended a brief romance with Paris Hilton last year, got her phone number through Ling’s friends. They met — and fell in love.

    “My current boyfriend is a godsend. I didn’t need any reasons to like him and I am willing to do anything for him,” said the Hollywood-based star of “Anna and the King” and horror flick “Dumplings.”

    “We are very romantic. To meet someone like that, I have to give my love to him and I do really love him,” she was quoted saying.

    Bai Ling said the couple was ready to wed any time.

    I love BAI! Without BAI tv would be a dull place. She should get her agent to cast in Surreal Life!

    quickfixquinn- i hope i didn’t offend you when i said that i thought she was in “crouching tiger, hidden dragon”..i don’t think all chinese actors were in it, I swear! (because jackie chan sure wasn’t..kidding)
    my friend told me she was in it, and i’ve never seen her before, so i gjust guessed he was telling the truth

    I love me some Bai Ling. Does anyone else hear that scurry high-pitched background vocal? What in the world is that, it sounds like Gizmo from Gremlins. But what is scurrier is that I think I really like her voice when she does the first ‘Call Me’ on the chorus, hahahaha, her voice reaches a very nice place, and it has that little gruffness, I dunno, maybe I’ve just been listening to her too much, that’d damage anyone’s sense of reality.

    Posted November 11, 2005 at 9:25 am

    Well I voted to keep Kim and that other chick. But yes, at least we have Bai. You know, the only way I know who she is is because I’m a celebrity blog addict. Otherwise I can’t imagine ANYONE would know who she is. I’m still not sure I’ve ever seen her in anything.

    p.s. Please keep the shirts on next time boys. Showing your bod isn’t going to make you sound any better.

    I totally agree. I love bai ling. She is so hot and sexy, and she has potential if she could get over her accent.
