Li Bingbing Outshines Zhang Ziyi In Hollywood
Successfully breaking into the international film market, mainland actress Li Bingbing (李冰冰), attended the 2012 Academy Awards in Hollywood last night. In recent years, Bingbing overshadowed Zhang Ziyi (章子怡), who did not attend the Oscars this year. Netizens from mainland China praised Li Bingbing in bringing glory to the Chinese people, while ridiculing Zhang Ziyi’s desolate state!
Internationally renowned mainland actress, Li Bingbing, made her first Oscars appearance yesterday. Wearing a sparkling mermaid style gown, Bingbing accessorized with a $3 million HKD Lana Marks diamond handbag. At the awards ceremony, the 38-year-old star was the most prominent Chinese actress last night. In addition, Bingbing’s style at the Oscars received approval from an authoritative American fashion site, who selected Bingbing’s style as one of the top ten looks at the event.
Although netizens ridiculed Zhang Ziyi and she was absent from the awards ceremony, the actress revealed that she was in fact one of the voters in determining the winners for this year’s Academy Awards. Ziyi wrote on her Weibo blog, “The results of the Oscars will be announced today. Reflecting back, the predictions of the judges were quite good this year! ”
After the Academy Awards ceremony concluded, Zhang Ziyi attended the after party, appearing in a chest revealing dress while partying with Elton John and Katy Perry. In addition, while attending the Oscar Preview Party last week, Ziyi met this year’s Best Supporting Actress, Octavia Spencer.

Jayne: Li Bingbing is 39 years old, soon to be 38? She does not look her age at all! She looked beautiful at the Oscars!
definately not a good picture of bing there
Uhm, in term of acting, I like Li Bing Bing over Zhang Zi Yi. In term of look, it is opposite.
You can’t compare Bing to Ziyi, Coz Bing is mature in acting, cool and have grace.
On the other, Ziyi isn’t lacks by miles.
Bing is a natural, ziyi hasn’t the charm other than her horizonal and shallow…
Li Bing Bing is much prettier (At least to me).
Bingbing was really beautiful and elegant on the red carpet. I really like her dress. She looks really good for her age. I can’t wait for the new Resident Evil movie. She will definitely becomes more popular in Hollywood after this.
Bing is popular in Hollywood, I guess not. Bing is certainly popular in Asia for her many tv series and gave very good performances. Hollyood may be big bucks, But Asia Ad’s are bigger for Bing
LBB is too much bones. And I think her style is just copying FBB with all the princessy dresses.
Wow Li Bing Bing dressed so nicely here
Zhang Ziyi is so beautiful, like her more.
Li Bing Bing looks very thin in this picture. Zhang Ziyi looks more radiant.
Kidd,
I think Li BB has always been very thin in person.. Even in some movies she was in, she appears to be too thin imo. Wonder if she keeps that thin like stick figure on purpose or she’s just thin in natural.
It’s good that she is 39 and still making waves in Hollywood. Attractive women should have a longer shelf life like men. Look at George Clooney.
Wow, she’s gorgeous for her age. I hope to age well like she did.
Li Bing Bing only attended the Oscars because someone paid for her to attend and also paid to present at the Independent Spirit Awards. No one in the USA know who she is but they all know Ziyi!
It’s childish to ridicule Ziyi. I like her.
I know who Li Bing Bing is but c’mon, netziens! Nobody knows her as well as Ziyi in the U.S. Timing really matters and Ziyi had more luck in having the U.S debut that she has. But it’s kinda amazing how young Li Bing Bing looks though she could deal with less heavy eye makeup.
The mainland chinese hate Zhang Ziyi because she was once dated with a Israel guy ,some of the mainland Chinese are anti Jewish and anti west so Zhang become a hate figure .
I think Chinese generallu hate Zhang Ziyi but yes she is an academy member. So far I have yet to see Li Bing BIng in anything worth mentioning. Being a fashion icon does not bring glory to the Chinese. What a warped sense of glory! At least Dato’s Michelle Yeoh, however not great her acting is doing something appropriate to gain a footing in hollywood and that is to act.
i only know zhangziyi because she’s got a kwailo boyfriend …
ZZY is know in the US as an overrated Chinese actress who is a gold digger who landed an European fiancé but later got disposed. Used & abused, which LBB is fresh meat to Hollywood.
thats funny. fresh meat hahaa…. but i guess i can see what u mean. honestly, FBB, ZZY they are both the same to me. no like or dislike.
I think Zhang Zi Yi’s dress actually looks better than what Li Bing Bing is wearing. I dunno she looks ghostly because she’s so pale and then wearing white doesn’t suit.
I also like Zhang Ziyi’s dress more than Li Bing Bing’s.
Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi are the most famous Chinese actresses in the West. Oh, and Bai Ling, too. I’m a Westerner, I should know. Li Bingbing? Only hardcore fans of Asian cinema know of her.
Also, ZZY was very beautiful and elegant at the Oscars, which didn’t go unnoticed by fashion experts. LBB looked hideous. Not that Mother Nature meant for her to look good.
I think you left out Michelle Yeoh.
Currenly Li Bingbing is not more popular than Zhang Ziyi but in the future who know?
Zhang Ziyi has not had any special thing in Hollywood for a few years, her newest role was in Horsemen but very pale.
Li Bingbing will have a chance to shine IF her new role in President Evil is big and she acts well.
I don’t like both of them, never was a fan of these 2, but if I have to choose, look wise and acting wise, I choose Zhang Ziyi.
Geez, LBB or ZZY, both aren’t any good. The real good ones never got into Hollywood.
Not surprised Li Bingbing is more popular. Zzy is rather plain looking and was only “famous” from Crouching Tiger because Western movie audiences were amazed at the “kung fu” stunts. Walk down the streets in Melbourne, Sydney or Perth and you will find Asian girls that are pretty then Zhang.
