"Who's the prettier geisha?"

Postby Taro Toporific » Wed Jul 27, 2005 6:37 pm

Q: Which Japanese Geisha is prettier?

A: Not. Neither. Nope. Null.
Not Japanese. Neither women. Geisha, nope. Null pretty.

...The geishas in the picture are indeed Xie Shaoguang and Bryan Wong.
Kirei desu ne? (Japanese for "Pretty, isn't it?") The MediaCorp artistes turned heads recently when they were filming a segment about the geisha culture in Japan for Rail Adventure.
"We felt like characters jumping right out from the pages of Memoirs of a Geisha," Shaoguang said with a smile, referring to the popular novel by Arthur Golden.
"Who's the prettier one? Definitely Bryan. He's got such a smooth complexion and an innocent charm about him. If he were really a geisha, he'll be so popular."

hehe - I am a happy Japan in-time-turnbacker :-)

I read a lot of stuff about Japan when I was considering moving there. I always keep tons of useless information in my head - the Geisha thing is one of them
