Although mainland starlet Zhang Ziyi is generally disliked by her fellow citizens, she is basking in the Hollywood spotlight.
She appears on the March cover of Vanity Fair alongside top actresses such as Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet and Uma Thurman - confirming her status as one of hottest stars on the big screen.
Zhang's love life is also blossoming.
She doesn't deny the fact that she's dating Eric Fok Kai-shan of the prestigious Fok family.
When asked if she spent Valentine's Day with Fok, she replied: 'Didn't celebrate ... nothing very special ... the most important [thing] is to be happy.'
While preparing for the trip for Monday's Oscars ceremony in Hollywood, Zhang commented : 'I wish I could work right outside my front door.'
