Imagine:
TK sitting at a corner of a Cafeteria, you (waitress) walk over, look at him in the eyes, and ask "Anything to drink, sir", he answeres "no, thanks"
How much would you pay to play this waitress role?
P.S
(The fact) In the upcoming movie "Perhaps love", there is such a scene, and this waitress role was put on the website for bid.
The winner got this bid for ................

Unfortunately, no amount of money I'd be willing to pay would be good enough since I'm...ahem... beyond the age limit the auction established for the role.

Well, I can look pretty darn good in drag (as I'm tall and thin), but I'm not sure if I'd quite "pass" as a woman, even done up in my stillettoes, best dress, and great makeup job. It's a fun thought, though, playing a waitress in a scene with TK! LOL! *Sigh*

What? Only a waitress role? No waiter? Swellboy has a good idea though. Maybe I can dress in drag too. My girlfriend is always calling me a pretty boy so I guess I could pass off as a girl.

Hey, they should have had both a waitress *and* waiter roles! Sam (I find that given nickname to you quicker and easier to type here; hope you don't mind): Maybe your girlfriend can dress and make you up in drag someday? I've known women who've had a great time doing that to their boyfriends/husbands. Just a thought. You and she might find it lots of fun. Back in college, I remember a girlfriend (I mean strictly in the platonic sense, of course) of mine and I dressing up a straight male friend of ours in drag. He's half Korean and half white-- totally gorgeous. Anyway, a fun time was had by all. We even took Andy (that's his name) out to an amusement park, where, after a while, he went and used the women's restroom! But, nobody gave him a hard time-- or felt bothered by him in the ladies room, where he was very discreet and quick with doing his business. He had guts. Not surprisingly, I had a big crush on him at the time. I was able to tell him this several years later. Now, how does all this relate to TK, people might ask? Well, I think he'd look beautiful playing a man in drag in a movie. He's not only pretty as well as handsome (imho-- I realize not everyone would agree with me here that TK is "pretty"), but talented and wonderfully expressive (his non-speaking role in FALLEN ANGELS is a great example of what I'm talking about here) in ways that he would be great in a dynamic film role in which his character, say, had to disguise himself in drag. If the script were a good one, I imagine TK being willing to give it a shot. My guess is that either no decent script involving a man wearing drag has come TK's way or his management has discouraged him from playing such a role. Hmmm....It's fun to ponder. *Sigh*

Aaaaactually..... TK was willing to do this for a not-so-decent script. Both he and Jet Li were in drag for a scene in "Dr. Wai In The Scriptures With No Words." IMHO, TK didn't really look like a beautiful woman though. I think some of his features are way too "strong" for that...strong jawline, strong chin, strong nose. His eyes, were of course, beautiful though! I just don't think he'd be too convincing as a woman if the intent of the role would be to make people believe he isn't a man.

I just don't think he'd be too convincing as a woman if the intent of the role would be to make people believe he isn't a man. I haven't seen this movie to judge for myself how TK looked in drag in that film. However, I still hold to my personal opinion that he would look great as a beautiful *man* in drag (and some men just naturally do, I find). I also think that, with the right makeup job and clothing, he could be artfully done up in drag to look like a convincing woman, especially with the addition of effective lighting and camera angles. Just my opinions here.
