After the publicity generated by her stage performance in Glengarry Glen Ross, her car crash and Ecstasy arrest, actress Anya Wu is at it again. Now she plans to publish a raunchy photobook.
'It's going to shock some people,' Wu (right) told SAR from Taiwan yesterday. 'But I hope to win over more fans than I lose.'
Not so long ago, stripping for the camera was a fast route to obscurity, but the success of the likes of Christy Chung Lai-tai and Shu Qi has convinced Wu that it's a risk worth taking.
'I am ready to take my clothes off,' said the New York-raised actress. 'But it has to be right. I am not interested in doing something crude. I want to capture my ideas about sexuality; a mix of the raw Taiwanese style and more sophisticated Western style.'
Shooting will start soon and take her to Shanghai, Hong Kong and Taiwan. The book - as yet untitled - is expected to appear in the summer.
