china fake something else

by fusen • 12 Aug 2008, 18:21 • Journals
after news came through that some of the fireworks displayed on the large screens within the birds nest stadium were faked, there's now more news that China replaced a young singer because she had crooked teeth and thought it'd make the country look bad to the international watchers :X

Not something new from the Chinese, they lie all the time. Still it's sad that they think that crooked teeth will make a country look bad -.-

And knowing that Mao himself never really cleaned his teeth except for using green tea.

Yang appears to have taken the snub in her stride. Asked by a CCTV journalist whether she was sad to have missed the opening ceremony, she replied: "No, my voice was there.

Nice ^^

I guess that when that girl with "wrong" teeth will grow up she will be a maniac who will kick out teeth to all young children

As long as China don't have shows like American Idol and The X Factor, who are we to judge?





...they don't have those shows right?
