...whether you're window-shopping, daydreaming in a bus or cruising the Internet, you're likely to see her face and the luxurious mouth that is its trademark. She's the poster girl for French fashion house Lanvin, beer babe for San Miguel and pitchwoman for Lux Soap, Coca-Cola (Japan) and Red Earth cosmetics (O.K., that contract just lapsed). In a six-year career, the 25-year-old Taiwanese seductress has made no less than 45 movies. One of her first, Sex and Zen II, is a soft-porn classic, the Emmanuel of Asia. Two of her films just...
...young beauty who steals the sword, the center of the kung fu epic's plot. "Physically, she's incredible," Lee enthused at the time. Shu Qi was on board?for eight weeks.

"Welcome to Sex City - Hope You Brought Cash" was the title of the magazine article in which an economist estimates that nudie bars generate greater economic impact than the Braves, Falcons and Hawks professional sports teams combined. "Conventioneers swarm to the Atlanta strip clubs because no matter where they live they probably don't have this honored combination of nude dancing and alcohol," says attorney Alan Begner, who represents nearly...

His election last year was a political earthquake, in part because it broke the 71-year-long one-party rule of the Institutional Revolutionary Party, or P.R.I.
