Zi Yi Zhang is ugly! Options

[Cocatrola]

Wonder why people like her.

[French_Fries]

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think she just looks like a smaller version of Gong Li

So if she's "ugly" in your eyes, then she shouldn't have fans?
I think she's pretty, compare her to average, random Asians you'll find at the mall and she would looks heaps better. I think if people have a reason to dislike her, then it should be because of her talent or lack of talent.
I was just like everyone else who didn't understand why she was famous when her acting was sub-par, but 2046 changed my mind. Honestly anyone who hasn't seen 2046, has not seen her talent. She was praised like crazy by critics for her performance, and I can see why. Of course though, there are the avid haters who would say she's a bad actress regardless of how well she performed. She could win five oscars and the haters would still call her talentless, you can't always please everyone. I'm fine with her.

I think there is already a hate thread for her. But then, regarding to what you said about she being ugly, well, that is your opinion. No one can be definite whether she is a big beauty or a friggin old hag. Some people do not like her because she is pretty, they like her because they enjoy seeing her acting, and that they think she has the makings of a sophisticated young lady. Everyone is considered beauty so even if you think she is ugly, this does not necessarily apply to everyone.

[santoki]

if zhang zi yi is ugly, then the rest of the world's population are the ugliest mofo's if she's the standard for ugly.

a good looking woman is a good looking woman, and zhang is a good looking woman. Who cares is she's not a pretty as Gong Li. They are two different people!

i really like to see those calling out celebrities as ugly to show their pictures in comparison, so we can at least see if they have the right to call other people ugly.

[self_hypnosis]

I'm not her fan, but she's definately not ugly. Please look up thw term "ugly" in the dictionary. Just because there are others who are prettier than her it does not say that she is ugly. In fact, she's a natural beauty which we hardly see nowadays.

People like her because she is a good actress and naturally beautiful.

[MadHatter]

i agree with Kayem and self_hypnosis

to me personally i think she is pretty, she has that natural grace for some reason. I have nothing against her and im a neutral fan.

i do not like to call people ugly too often.
would you like to call her ugly to her face? if you do not have that confidence to call her that to her face, then i dont think talking behind her back is going to do much good.

i respect that you dont like her because she is ugly. but then it should not be a factor. i rather look at a persons talent when acting opposed to looking pretty on screen. example of such poor attributes are the infamous LYF.

[keiki]

she not ugly,shes average.i see her pic in the internet n magazine,is not ugly

[Kayem]

You've seen girtls who are even prettier than Gong Li?!
Hmmmm...Somehow, I don't believe that, or you must live in a very special place.
I think that beauty is really subjective and maybe you can find a certain facial feature more beautiful than another, but saying that Ziyi is ugly...Is like saying that all girls with "Cute, perky" features are also ugly :/.

...

[stars13]

She is not ugly. This topic is abit wierd. You could name it I hate Zi Yi Zhang but ugly no.

[honeycomb1010]

why don't you post a pic of yourself and let us be the judge
god from all your topics, you appear VERY ignorant and immature
grow up

[-xtlover-]

I don't think that she is ugly her face is so beautiful she's like a chinese doll to me and besides she has this elegant aura around her.

[lavenderwingz]

i thnk she's avg, i honestly dun really see the beauty that everyone speaks of. but that's just because i never liked the characters that she played, which affected how i see her physically as well.

i do think that she does posess something that the ppl doesnt have, cant pinpoint wht, but to judge a person (in this case an actress) b/c of her looks is not a good idea.

[honeycomb1010]

^ uh....you meant zhang yi lin right?
this is zhang zi yi, the chinese actress, the one that starred in memoirs of a geisha

[little_stars]

i dont think she is ugly and even if i think people would like her not because of how she looks like ...
i think bpeople like her because how she act and she is a international star so...

[01S0ULL]

if Zhang Zi Yi is ugly . we'd all be ugly mofo freaks . she's beautiful and she looks so fresh and natural .

in terms of acting. i dont really know cause i dont really follow her or anything.

good day

[shellstah__]

Maybe people like her because she can act? Just because you think she's "ugly" doesn't mean she is nor does it mean she can't act. Though I'm not a fan of hers so I have no clue whether or not she's talented.

[chiyuffie]

She's not ugly with make-up...hahaha. I don't think she's ugly. Her other qualities make up for her lack of beauty in the face. The elegance is superior. The way she conducts herself is beautiful. Even down to the films she chooses.

[Anne-Jay]

I'm not a big fan of hers, but she's not ugly. I have seen worse. Lately she's been putting on a ton of makeup which isn't really suitable for her face but otherwise she's pretty.

[JAAHAS]

well i'm also not big fan of her and i actually don't like most of her movies at all but she's definitely not ugly. She's pretty in my opinion.

[Asiul_]

.....
so...wat u mean is......???
umm, from wat u r saying, you hate her cos she is ugly or you just reckon she is ugly, well, in my eyes, she not ugly, nor is she pretty, but hey, it is just a opinion

wondering why pl lyk her?? two possible reasons-talented and pretty, for ppl comparing gong li and her...*sighs at disappointment*

[Love. Music.]

i dont think she is ugly.
she does have some beauty it just depends on ur personal opinions.
To me she isnt drop dead gorgeous but she isnt ugly either. Though she does take some pictures where she looks old
I like her acting.. she usually has that mysterious aura when she acts so it makes her characters interesting so thats why i like her.

[My_Nguyen]

when a person have talent they will be able to conquer any boundaries...beauty is universal and i think zhang zi yi representing china is great... i like her honest acting skills over her looks
glad she's getting engage...and damn she still looks young

[Felicitationx3]

okay, I wouldn't say shes ugly. Beauty is defined differently for everyone and its okay if you think that way. The reason I don't like her is because the quality of her acting. No offense to those who like her, but her acting isn't really cut out for Hollywood. The reason she is in Hollywood movies is because of her rich boyfriend and her small role in a file directed by Zhang Yi Mo (who happend to have directed the Olympics opening and closing). Compare to Chinese Hollywood actresses like Gong Li, ZZY lacks immense amount of experience

totally agree with you. she is urgent to have a baby soon too, so at least if her marriage with her multi-bill fiance doesn't work out, she will be finanically stable.

[Felicitationx3]

ZZY seems to be settling down a bit since she is engaged and keeping her private life a little bit more private. But it just kinda interests me, is she trying to marry into an American family to get more financial support/ green card to boost her job opportunities or is she actually settling down with someone she truly loves? I can't really judge her since I don't know her personally, but what are the chances of falling in love with someone so much older than you . can't help but to wonder the motives behind her engagement. Maybe I am just being overly suspicious. . .

[miakyou]

I heard many (or maybe some) people from China don't like Zhang Ziyi.
I don't quite understand why they hate her.

I think it's mostly because they're jealous of her more than anything else, she's achieved a lot in such a young age, many people want to do that but can't.

[applesiliver]

I think she is overated, but I don't think she is ugly
she has unique oriental beauty.

[Inaara]

Over-rated? Maybe, but ugly? Definitely not.
I've watched only two of her movies so far & I thought she was really pretty & definitely one of the best actresses I've ever chanced upon.
She may not be the most beautiful woman ever but she is pretty nevertheless. To call her ugly would put a shockingly staggering majority of the world's population into the 'ugly' category.
Oh well *sigh*.........you're probably just another one of those dim-witted antis that'll do or say anything to make another's idol look bad.

[crazy4sushi]

i honestly dont think she's ugly and i dont hate an actress just cause she's ugly, it all comes down to acting skills and abilities, so i think she's ok as an actress and i do enjoy watching her

[Squirt88]

She's not ugly, but a little bit overrated in terms of her beauty.

At least she's not as over-rated as Gong Li (who's not that pretty IMO)

[Azure!]

Her being "ugly" as you said isn't a good enough reason for people to dislike her.

And personally, I think she is very beautiful, in a sort of ethereal way. She's got that oriental, china doll look and she carries herself with a certain poise and grace. That's why she's very suitable for roles in those ancient China movies and stuff.

And I think her acting skills are quite good so that should make up for her looks(to other people who don't think she's pretty).

[Keepsake]

I don't really like her too. I think she's not good at acting and people only use her because of her looks. I really don't see the hotness in her though.

[suki.L]

I don't think she's ugly, in fact I find her to be a really pretty actress. I really liked her in Memoirs of a Geisha .

[French_Fries]

she is an overrated china star. But i don't hate her,.. don't love her. Dont' really care. I don't see the big deal of her barely there boobs in those pics.

[Asiul_]

i find her so overrated

shes no special material. her acting isnt spectacular, and her appearnace isnt exactly top notch either. and most importantly, shes not that good at speaking english. so why in the world is she a hollywood star?

[♥ InitialE]

hmm? i think she's very pretty. she's a natural.... right?
i've seen her in a few movies, and i think her acting's pretty legit.

[ruby_girl]

i dont think shes ugly
but shes definatly not pretty

she can act though, shes very popular but in terms of looks there are plenty of actresses prettier
