Actress Bai Ling fined for disturbing peace
12:15pm Actress Bai Ling, arrested last month on suspicion of shoplifting at Los Angeles International Airport, was fined US$200 (HK$1,557) on Wednesday after pleading guilty to disturbing the peace.
AP has the story here.
I am puzzled by the media's regular use of the word "actress" to describe Bai Ling. Has anyone ever actually seen her act in anything, except a provocative manner designed to draw attention to herself?

though I'm no great supporter of Bai Ling, it looks like she's been in quite a few movies if you believe her IMDB page.... though no roles of note....

Isn't everybody an actOR nowadays?
Actress is frightfully un-pc.
Does that mean next year's Oscars will have two Best Actor and two Best Supporting Actor categories?
Best Actor in a female role...
There's a precedent - didn't Linda Hunt win an Oscar as Best Supporting Actress in a male role some years ago (for The Year of Living Dangerously)?
