Some weird music/dance contest in what sounds like Japan or Korea (or is it just the performers?) But whatever, six cute Asian babes dancing in the nude and shaking their boobs and ass. Check it out.

I just recently learned about Chinese beauty Tang Jia Li, a dancer/actress. According to magazine Asian Wave she has a calm “Mona Lisa” smile and a tranquil expression. Her agile body and delicate limbs befit her poise as a performer. After her nude art photo collection was published in China, it sparked so much negative scrutiny from the media and the internet that she almost committed suicide.

Fortunately she didn’t and so people in Canada could see her this Summer performing in Senses, a modern Chinese opera about a new and modern face of Chinese women. Without discarding the hallmarks of Chinese tradition and history, the performance features an all-female cast of Chinese dancers, singers, and musicians with Tang Jia Li as female lead dancer.

After all my recent posts on Hong Kong cinema (as well as some of Robin and badboy’s recent posts!), I thought it was time for me to inject some real class into Asian Sirens. And what better way to do that than with the woman who is widely regarded as the greatest dancer in China – and in my humble opinion the greatest dancer in the world?

Yang Li Ping became famous overnight in 1986 for her performance in the Dai dance drama “The Peacock Princess”. Although she’s never had any formal training whatosever, she entered the China Central Song and Dance Ensemble of Nationalities in 1988. At the Second National Dance Contest, her dance “The Soul of the Peacock” (which she choreographed and performed herself) outshone all others and reaped two first prizes, one for choreography and another for her performance of the piece. Since then, she has become revered in China as the “peacock princess”.Having seen her compilation DVD, I can honestly say I’ve never seen anything else like her: the sheer grace, beauty and sensuousness of her performance is simply beyond description. Her dance is also highly original and incredibly natural: it’s as if her performance just flows out of her as though she were posessed. Indeed, her native people (the Bai ethnic group) call her “bimo”, which means ‘the witch with the gift of dancing’! Critics call her the “dance poet”, which I can only agree with.

As visitors to this site will want to know, she is also very attractive: despite the fact that she is now 47, she has an outstandingly trim and slender body, which she likes to show off with some pretty revealing outfits. And yes, she is still dancing – she says she’ll never stop because it’s in her blood, a statement I don’t think anyone could argue with! Her grace, her beauty, her body and most of all her breathtaking performance are truly a joy to watch: even if you aren’t normaly into dance (and I have to say I’m not), I’m sure you’ll find her truly compelling.

Here’s a few articles about her:

If there’s one Japanese girl who’s more mysterious than the Kano sisters I featured in my last post, it’s underground performance artist and trumpeter Mash. She was featured in a series of photos at Tokyo Topless some years ago, which sadly are no longer available. As can be seen in the above pic, she has a very distinctive ‘star burst’ tattoo around her navel. Even more remarkably for a Japanese girl, she also has unshaven armpits! Apart from that, I know absolutely nothing about her. Does anybody else have any more info on this girl?The photo above is a scan by legendary Asian scanner BlueBird, which he tellingly misidintified as Jun Kusanagi. Those who know me will know I’m an absolute Jun fanatic, because she has quite simply the greatest body I have ever seen – the contrast between her tiny waist and her very large bust and wide hips (in her prime) has to be seen to be believed. Mash’s slender yet very busty body is the closest to Jun’s I’ve seen, but whereas I believe Jun’s breasts are (incredibly) natural, I suspect Mash probably has implants. But like many Japanese models, they do look very natural!
