Sacha Baron Cohen’s new movie
“Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” made me curious about what Kazakh women really look like (Kazakhstan borders the western Chinese province of Xinjiang and is quite far from where the scenes in the movie were shot).
Clockwise from the upper left are Dina Nuraliyeva, Miss Kazakhstan 2005; Gaukhar Rakhmetalyeva, the new Miss Kazakhstan Universe 2007; a Kazakh woman holding flowers during Vice President Cheney’s visit to Kazakhstan and designer Saida Azhikhan adjusting the hat on a model (Robert A. Reeder from the Washington Post).
I couldn’t find any pictures up to the standards of Asian Sirens, but we thought this might trigger a good discussion.
