(Sexy actress Bai Ling talks to Mike Szymanski, the Bisexuality Examiner, in an exclusive interview...See all three parts and a transcript of the interview)
It seems like it's suddenly trendy (once again) to call yourself bisexual.
Megan Fox wears her bisexuality like a shiny engagement ring, flashing it to anyone who wants a peek. Lindsay Lohan, Drew Barrymore, Lady Gaga—all have teased and twittered about their multi-sexual attraction.
And, even some guys have jumped on the bi bandwagon lately. Pop star Duncan James is using the B-word to describe himself, Lebanese singer Mika declares: "Call me bisexual" and British "X-Factor" hunk Danyl Johnson was just sort-of outed by the show's hostess Dannii Minogue.
But, long before bi chic ever made a comeback, actress Bai Ling was always out as bisexual.
The sexy steady-working actress pops up on the radio with Howard Stern, on "Entourage" and "Lost" on TV, and she's in "Taxi 3," "Wild, Wild West" and "Anna and the King." Her career goes back to way before the days of "The Crow" in 1994, which was her first American movie after a decade of work in China. She sexes it up in the animated "Southland Tales" and feels she connected with Angelina Jolie while making "The Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow." She's worked with Oliver Stone ("Nixon"), Spike Lee ("She Hate Me") and George Lucas ("Star Wars: Episode III—Revenge of the Sith").
But, always looking forward, the slate of characters for 2010 will include a lesbian, a magician, a transsexual, a prostitute, a man, a mermaid, a stripper, but never who she really is—a bisexual.
"Now, I want to play a character who is bi," says the actress with a wicked smile. "No one will know if she likes women or men because she likes both. I want to play that, it would be a great part. I am a lover of both men and women. I want to play that."
Although she is rather open about almost everything—and isn't at all afraid of playing nude—Bai Ling hasn't really discussed her bisexuality in great detail—until now.
The 40-something stunning actress breezes into a quiet Santa Monica eatery recently and laughs about the fuss that pundits make about her noteworthy nipples, as well as the tabloid fodder about her diverse relationships with Nick Carter, Lionel Richie, Chris Isaak and Mickey Rourke.
"They are all part of me, they are all different and they are all my friends," Bai Ling says. She never goes into detail about any specific relationship, but has never discussed her same-sex liaisons at all until now.
She whispers in between sips of her non-fat latte, "I have had quite a few experiences with women. A couple of them were very erotic experiences that were quite unique."

Bai Ling discusses "A Beautiful Life"
Comments
WHO CARES. Her lifestyle is pathetic. Another sad producct of the ego-centric entertainment industry. So she acts. Who cares. Maybe makes some good money because people see her films. Who cares. Shows skins cuz she thinks its sexy. Who cares. In general -- WHO CARES!!!!!!!!!!! Sexy is not all about showing one's nearly nude body. But for the unfortunate folks who fall under Hollywood's spell, they will never understand... Shallow w/ no substance.
