Anushka Shetty Height

There is no official source about Anushka Shetty height, but it’s a good chance that she’s approximately around 5′ 9″ – 5′ 10″ (1.75 m – 1.78 m) tall. With this height, Anushka Shetty isn’t just one of the tallest female in Indian showbiz, but also taller than most male actors there!

Anushka mostly works in Tamil (South India) movie industry, where the actors’ height are usually span between 5′ 6″ – 5′ 8″. So, it’s rumored that some actors that were paired with her had to wear a special shoes that increased their height, so they won’t appear shorter than Anushka on the screen.

Baby Margaretha Bikini is Fabulous

Since her movie debut in Indonesian “Pocong Mandi Goyang Pinggul” (translated as Shrouded Corpse Bathing While Hip-Shaking, and don’t ask me what the heck that means) in April 2011, Baby Margaretha popularity seems to be multiplied. Not to mention that she’s also currently starring in famous comedy television show, “Awas Ada Sule 2”, Baby Margaretha has turned from Internet model to a real actress.

It’s obviously good for us Baby Margaretha fans, as with her raising popularity, a bunch of her new images will be flooding the web. One of the rare releases are Baby Margaretha pics in bed room wearing two-pieces bikini which you can see in this post. It seems that the red and snake-skin print swimsuit are too small to cover her fabulous curvy figure! Enjoy!

Katrina Halili in Kawasaki Ads

As Filipino top actress, many brands and products want to use Katrina Halili as their ambassador, including Kawasaki motorcycle. FYI, Philippines and other South East Asian countries are having trouble with traffic jam, that’s why most of the people there prefer motorcycle than car. Before Kawasaki, other brands like Honda and Yamaha already used famous faces for their campaign in Philippines, such as Marian Rivera and Angel Locsin. But none of them are as brave and sexy as Katrina Halili in their advertisements.

The 25-year-old actress got this endorsement with the Japanese company Kawasaki in 2009, around the time when Katrina Halili scandal video with Dr. Hayden Kho leaked on the internet. The Kawasaki management said that Katrina Halili fits as their product endorser because she portrays bravery and toughness, just like their motorcycles.

Zhang Ziyi on Vivi Nevo

As one of the most successful actress in Asia, we should have posted Zhang Ziyi more often. It’s too bad that she’s quite inactive recently, making news and pictures of Zhang Ziyi are hard to get. Fortunately the waiting is over, she just released her newest Mandarin film, Love for Life, co-starring with Aaron Kwok. While busy promoting this movie, Zhang Ziyi said some interesting stuff about her separation with former boyfriend, Israeli billionaire Vivi Nevo.

Zhang Ziyi and Vivi Nevo have been dating for several years, but the couple was reported split up in late 2010. Recently Zhang Ziyi admitted that she was the one who initiated the split from the Israeli capitalist, citing cultural differences as the main reason.

“I grew up in a very traditional Chinese environment with lots of love, and I hope my own family would be the same. I want everyone to live together, with kids running around, and dogs playing with the kids. This is my ideal family life. I tried to make it work but it didn’t, and I have no regrets over it,” said the 32-year-old actress.

Zhang Ziyi added that if there is a guy who loves her as much as Zhao Te-Yi, the love interest in her latest movie, she would marry the guy right away.

While waiting for her to get love of her life, let’s check some of her glamorous photoshoot, where Zhang Ziyi poses in beautiful white dress:

Baby Margaretha is Afraid of Internet

Type “Baby Margaretha” in Google search box, and you’ll get around 1,000,000 results. That’s not a bad thing for a local model. But why this Indonesian Internet queen is afraid of searching her own name in search engine? Apparently, Baby Margaretha is scare of what people write about her, which usually comes along with her sexy pics.

Many people create a fake social networking accounts using her name. You’ll find many Baby Margaretha Facebook or Baby Margaretha Friendster around the web. That won’t be a bad thing if those accounts don’t write false information about her, like saying that she loves to watch erotic movie and can be booked for a night!

Well, that’s probably because men are love fantasizing about her, and none of them believe that someone as hot as Baby Margaretha is actually a “nice girl”. Not us though. We love this Baby, and won’t write a bad stuffs about her.

Baby Margaretha Movie Debut

Our favorite Indonesian model, Baby Margaretha, is finally going to turn into a real actress. After spent years for lingerie and bikini modeling, she will be staring her debut movie. The movie is titled as Pocong Mandi Goyang Pinggul (not sure what’s the English translation, but it should be close to Shrouded Corpse Bathing While Hip-Shaking) and will hit the theater in late April 2011.

This is not an ordinary Indonesian local film, because the main actress will be U.S. porn star Sasha Grey. The scenes which involved Sasha Grey were filmed at America, while the rest were shot in Indonesia. It’s a horror genre, and we’re not sure what’s Baby Margaretha character in it, but it’s expected to be a small role with sexy appearance.

We only hope that after she get more projects, she doesn’t forget to produce hot pictorials like she used to. Here are some of her newest update, Baby Margaretha Bikini Pics:
