Pace Wu (in MAXIM Hong Kong)

Pace Wu (Photography: Fu)

When I was in Hong Kong at the beginning of this month, I picked up some magazines. One of them was the MAXIM. (I also bought a more explicit magazine, but I will post from that one later on ;-)) Featured in this September issue is a beautiful lady named Pace Wu. Allmosty all text is in Chinese, so the only info I could extract was her name. But then a Google search was more informative.

Pace Wu (born 1978) is a Chinese (Taiwanese) actress, pop-singer and model! On her official site there are some nice glamour style photo’s and some information, unfortunately mostly in Chinese. There is quite a lot of info on her to be found on the web, so if this posting isn’t enough for you, be my guest and Google on! Or just check these photo’s on ChinaStar.com

But here I present to you 5 of the original 11 MAXIM photo’s. (Scanning is very time consuming! ;-))I totally agree with MAXIM: she is very sexy!

Miss Thailand didn’t expect to have to live there

Miss Thailand didn't expect to have to live there

Australian beauty Angela MacKay has handed back her Miss Thailand crown just 10 days after winning it, saying her entirely unexpected triumph interfered with her modeling career. “I really went into the competition because I just wanted to learn how to speak Thai and I wanted to have a Thai experience,” said the 21-year-old from Perth with an Australian father and a Thai mother.”I wanted to just learn about Thai culture. I honestly didn’t expect to win at all. It was a very, very big surprise to me,” she said before heading back to New York late on Tuesday to go back to modeling.

MacKay said she had been persuaded to enter by relatives in Thailand when she came for a visit and hadn’t realized that the title required her to stay in the country for the coming year.

She returned the prize money of 1 million baht, a diamond crown worth 800,000 baht and a car.

Thailand will send second placed Sirinda Jensen to the Miss World contest in China in December. Jensen is half Thai and half Dutch.

UPDATE:

I found Charisse at her Yahoo Group. She is new to the modeling business, but judging by her activities, I have a feeling she will be quite famous pretty soon! On her official site you will find a lot of information (even her workingschedule) and some photo’s. In her Yahoo group she is also active in the messages area. And of course she has a MySpace. She doesn’t do nude. I think I will let Charisse introduce herself! 😉

“I was born on March 3rd, 1985 in Lopez Quezon, Philippines. I moved to the United States when I was about 9 years old with my mom. I have one brother whom I love dearly. Eversince I was little I’ve always wanted to be a part of the entertainment industry. I’ve entered various Beauty Pageants in the Philippines and in the United States. I’ve been modeling for a while now but I didn’t start to really get into the modeling business until Summer of 2005.”“As of now, I’m still new in the industry but so far I’ve had the pleasure to work with awesome photographers as well as beautiful models. I am also a part time student taking up Nursing at Southwestern College here in San Diego, CA. I hope to someday become an RN as well as a successful business woman…”

Roley Chiu Photography

Jenny Jung (Photography: Roley Chiu)

I did not find Roley Chiu, he found us. When I visited his website after a comment he made on this site, I was impressed with what I saw. Very stylish glamour photography, but still with an artistic edge. And beautiful Asian girls! Six of them are also introduced on the site. (I may have to do some extra postings on them :-))

It was very difficult to choose a photo for this posting, so I chose three! 😉 All of 21 year old Korean Jenny Jung. But be sure to check out his other models.

Who is Roley Chiu?

Roley Chiu is 25 years old, lives in Vancouver BC, Canada, but was born in Hong Kong. He talks about himself a bit on his site.“I’m a very deliberate photographer. I try to see my shots in my head before i take them. I enjoy the styles of Z!NK, Maxim, Stuff, Victoria Secret, Willy Camden, Antoine Verglas, and Russell James. My influences are Art-Fashion, Men’s mags, lingerie catalogs, women’s fashion magazines, billboards, and commercial ads. Although I look to those sources for inspiration, i apply my own personal style to my work.”

“I like to work closely with models; working together to create something we both enjoy. I enjoy working with people that are as active and enthusiastic in the creative process as I am. The results are very rewarding.

I usually shoot with people that just want to see how they would look all glammed up. Grace and I like to have fun during shoots. We see ourselves as fun loving professionals haha. However, I sometimes prefer to work only with models that have a certain look that compliments the styles I focus on. Most professional models know that some photographers like to specialize on a style and thus are selective with who they shoot. It’s really, nothing personal. I truly believe all women are beautiful.”

Keep up the good work Roley!
