Angelina Jolie

Those pouty lips, penetrating cat-like eyes and that sexy voice. Angelina Jolie is the absolute complete package on the outside. Her looks alone would qualify her as a top notch babe! What really puts her over the top is her attitude, her personality and the work she has done thus far. Let's take a closer look!

I first saw her in the movie Hackers and she was a hottie back then. As her film credits increased, she showcased her tremendous acting talent. She got back the critics attention with a lead role opposite Denzel Washington in The Bone Collector, and her celebrity coming out party was heralded by her portray of videogame sex icon, Lara Croft, in Tomb Raider. From then on, she has stolen many hearts and is currently most famous for the rumours of being involved in the break up of Brad Pitt and Jeniffer Aniston during the filming of Mr & Mrs Smith.

To me, she was a babe way before her fame really took off ever since Hackers. She solidified her spot by being very down to earth. She never exhibited those diva qualities that plague hollywood celebs. She does her own stunts, and performs extensive work for charities to help developing countries. She's even adopted her child, Maddox from Cambodia.

Not only a babe, she could be the perfect wife in my opinion. But therein also lies perhaps the one flaw that most people point to, which was her short-lived marriage with Billy-Bob Thorton. But she gets major points for being a self-admitted bisexual. She's just different. And different is what makes a babe!

Tanya Chua (蔡健雅)

Let's start this website with my favourite babe, the incomparable
Tanya Chua! Tanya, an accomplished singer, composer and songwriter is a sentimental favourite because I discovered her talents before she become famous. I downloaded mp3s from her first album and while listening to them at work, I found that I kept repeating her songs. Her music is easy to listen to, meaningful and approached materials and subjects much differently than existing chinese popstars. I was drawn by her talent, and her very sexy voice. Not being a manufactured popstar, as so many chinese singers are, certainly put her in a very different category and very babe worthy!

She is hailed as the "Sheryl Crow" of the chinese music scene
and cites the likes of Joni Mitchell and Ella Fitzgerald as her musical influences. Besides being popular in her own albums, she has also collabarated and is in demand by music heavyweights such as Faye Wong, Fish Leong, Valen Hsu, Rene Liu, Gigi Leung, Amei Chang to name a few. Her unique musical expression has garnered her many awards and accolades throughout her career.

Tanya composes songs in both english & mandarin, I personally like her english songs much more as I feel she expresses her thoughts better in english. I have followed her career and despite not buying CDs anymore, I do buy her CDs to show my support for her. When I first saw her album covers, she was not promoted as a sex object, but rather a plain jane rocker type. But she has discovered her outer beauty as part of her evolution, while I had already fallen for her inner beauty! A perfect soulmate!

Update: Tanya Chua has won the BEST FEMALE SINGER of 2006 award at the 17th Golden Melody awards!
