Lucy-Liu

Lucy Liu (born Lucy Liu) is an American actor, voice actress as well as a director producer and singer. A beautiful and smart actress she serves as an example to numerous Asian actors that want to break into Hollywood. Following a string of early performances in popular shows her fame was boosted after joining the cast of the comedy legal series Ally McBeal where she played the sly Ling Woo. Her fame exploded into films roles like Shanghai Noon or Charlie's Angels. When she appeared in Kill Bill Volume 1, Quentin Tarantino, she gave an amazing performance in the role of Japanese criminal O-Ren Ishii. About the same time, she played major roles in other box-office failures such as Rise: Blood Hunter. After that, she started to sing prominent characters for animation movies like Kung Fu Panda. Mia Mason's part on Cashmere Mafia, a small screen feature, failed to produce satisfactory results. In the course of her recurring roles in the critically acclaimed police drama series Southland was instrumental in establishing her as a well-known actress. Liu takes great care when picking her roles to ensure that she does not become the victim of a hugely competition-driven industry. Even though she's accepted her heritage, she hasn't allowed them to restrict her as an artist.
