Crouching Tiger, Hidden Hotness
#7. Michelle Yeoh, 43
We could not decide whether to call this entry "Memoirs of a Hottie," "Hotness Never Dies," or the one we actually picked. We settled on the latter simply because it referenced the best movie of the three and it actually spoke to the attributes of Ms. Yeoh. In fact, we never realized how drop dead gorgeous she was until we watched "Memoirs of a Geisha" where she reunited with Zhang Ziyi to play her mentor and keeper of virginity. Seriously though, the movie was awful and we do not reccomend it for anyone. Especially not the part where Michelle Yeoh explains that an eel has not yet entered Zhang Ziyi's cave, and thus they can have an intense bidding war to sell the ahem, asset. In any case, we saved you the trouble of slaving through the movie (gorgeous, though it is) and collected all the best pictures of Michelle. She looks ethereal, matronly, dignified, sophisticated, and radiant all at the same time. In fact, her olive skin seems to glow whenever a camera is placed on her.
Her hotness, though, is only hidden to American audiences. The rest of the world caught onto her pretty quick as she was both Miss Malaysia 1983 and proud winner of the Miss Moomba beauty pageant of Australia. Us Americans are too busy obsessing over Japanese schoolgirls to notice the sexiness of a talented, ballet-trained actress from Malaysia.
Also, we feel sorry for her since she had to sit next to Sharon Stone on the Cannes film festival jury in 2002.
