Amy (from AKASI magazine)

As mentioned in my previous posting, I also bought a more explicit magazine in Hong Kong called AKASI – For Your Eyes Only (I could not find it on the web). Lot’s of photo sessions with nice young models. I guess you could call some of the photo’s pornography, but I’ve seen more explicit porn 😉

I think it is nice to pick a couple of these models and feature them on Asian Sirens. It is however quite difficult to extract information from the Chinese text, but whenever there is something in western typography which I can read, I will mention it here.

Let’s start with 19 year old Amy (of course there is no last name). She is the featured model in an extra 20 page booklet attached with the magazine (including fold-out). The only extra info I can give you is that she is 167cm in length, and has the following measurements: 33-24-34. The Photo’s are by a man named Kenny. There were 31 different photo’s. I scanned 3 for you.Want to see more of Amy? Buy AKASI magazine #135 😉
More models coming soon!

Pace Wu (in MAXIM Hong Kong)

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:
