The tally went off the charts this week…
Anna Maria Perez de Tagle is the ‘joy’ of ‘Fame’
Anna Maria Perez de Tagle: The tween starlet plays Joy in Fame.
Valerie Tian can be spotted in Jennifer’s Body (she was also the abortion protester in Juno, also a Diablo Cody scribed film)
How did I manage to leave out The Office’s Mindy Kaling? And in last week’s episode, Kelii Miyata played one of the unfortunate interns.
I don’t watch Heroes anymore, but it does have the actors Sendhil Ramamurthy, Masi Oka and James Kyson Lee.
Aziz Ansari makes it hot in Parks and Recreation.
Thanks to the indie film, White on Rice, there was a surge of Asians:
Hiroshi Watanabe
Nae
James Kyson Lee (he’s on the list twice!)
Mio Takada
Lynn Chen
Joy Osmanski
Justin Kwong
Haven’t seen my DVR’d episode of Community yet, but I know this week had Ken Jeong as a uber-Asian conscious Spanish teacher.
And of course we have to include Manny Pacquiao and the new Journey lead Singer Arnel Pineda…just because.
That brings the total to…66.
