Bai Ling, Uncensored

by Shea on December 31st, 2005

Perez Hilton brings us the “must-read” interview of the year - Bai Ling, star of But Can They Sing?, in Asiance Magazine:

Here are a few highlights:

ASIANCE: What was your favorite song?

Bai: I like all of them because I’ve never heard any of them before in my life, which is great and now I know all of them. My favorite was I Want to be Sedated, in that performance everything came along and I enjoyed it because I think literally sometimes in my life I want to be sedated. They choose the song and I design the outfit. It comes from my head. I tell them what I want. Luckily I don’t know any of the songs. They choose all of these idol songs that everyone knows and I just attack them without knowing anything. I come up with these sexy, modern, stylish outfits that come from my head from one of the sexy little spirits.

ASIANCE: Who is your favorite recording artist?

Bai: I really like U2 and I like Bryan Adams. I have one of his songs Everything I do, I do it for you on my list but they never chose it for me. Like A Virgin was the hardest song for me, and I didn’t feel Madonna’s song. That was my first song and I didn’t see Madonna’s video. But I thought in China, when you’re a virgin you wear red and that’s how I came up with my outfit. I didn’t know anything and it’s funny because with my last song, I Touch Myself, I felt like I went from being a virgin to touching myself - it’s a long way to go on a show. I’m like the wild card on the show. You never know what you’re going to get. I’m the color. Without me the show would be boring.

ASIANCE: Would you sing one of Nick Carter’s songs?

Bai: Of course I would, but they didn’t choose it for me. It’s funny, I got emails from all over the world saying ‘Congratulations,’ and I said ‘For what?’ I didn’t know. I said thank you for letting me know that I’m getting engaged.

ASIANCE: What was the hardest role you had to play this year?

Bai: I think they want me to make mistakes. It’s not a show about singing, it’s about entertainment, so I’m glad I served a purpose to make fun of myself. I feel like I really “made it through the wilderness.”

ASIANCE: What will you be doing after this show?

Bai: After the VH1 show, I’ve had a lot of people approach me to do my own show. Television is powerful. What’s funny is that I don’t even have a TV. I have to go to my friend’s place to watch VH1 because I don’t have cable. Every where I go people recognize me. I go out and people say “Call me,” I say “Call you, I don’t even know you.”`

I challenge my fears. I’m so honest and so sensitive. I’m a little afraid about doing a reality TV show. You can’t hide anything and all your emotions show. I think you can only be beautiful if you accept who you are and be true to how you are and behave the way you’re supposed to. We’re all different in the world and I will show the truth of who I am. Like when I sang Like A Virgin, I sang completely off tune because I couldn’t hear the music. What can you do?
