[edit] Citizenship

I've read many websites that show her to be an American citizen. Show me proof otherwise that she's a PRC citizen. Kiwi8 04:32, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Your edit summary being: "She is American-born Chinese!", which is of course wrong since Wuhan is in China. Nationality =/= citizenship. And just for your information, the PRC government does not strip PRC citizenship from citizens who are also citizens of other countries. So as long as she was born in the PRC she is a PRC citizen, though she may also be a US citizen. Highly unfortunate in this case, as I would be loath to admit that this person and I even have something in common. -- Миборовский U|T|
What do you mean you loath to admit that this person and you have anything in common, are you against her, or Chinese? User:Johnnyboyca

Yeah I'm sorry. I actually meant to say she's a China-born American. Kiwi8 06:41, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Alright, cool. Welcome (fellow?) Singaporean! -- Миборовский U|T|C|M|E|Chugoku Banzai! 05:31, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
By the way, what does your term "ARC" mean? "America what Chinese"? Kiwi8 12:10, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
ARC: America(n)-raised Chinese. -- Миборовский U|T|C|M|E|Chugoku Banzai! 04:45, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
Should be xi, her nickname xixi is what the way people call her when shotting the Return of the Condor Heroes. 222.130.187.122 11:21, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name

I've seen on some sites that her name is Liu Ximeizi, and on others Liu Qianmeizi. Dispute? Lulu288 19:28, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Qian is the correct pronounciation. Thus the other sites which use Xi, are wrong. No dispute. Kiwi8 19:26, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
But the word technically has two pronunciations, qian and xi, so what source confirms Liu Yifei uses qian? Lulu288 13:48, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
In videos I've seen, the news reporters have called Liu Yifei "xixi", not "qianqian." Therefore, her name would actually be Liu Ximeizi. Lulu288 22:07, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Do we have to change the pernunciation on the vietnamese wiki too? 129.67.49.193 00:25, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia

Please cite the following before adding them back:

  • Liu Yi Fei's education is very questionable. She graduated at the Beijing Film Academy abruptly without any hint of exams. Also,many had questioned her acceptance to Stanford University due to her poor english skills. However, it has been confirmed that she is only a "guest" student since she did not go through the admission process. Many had said that she is taking philosophy, while some had said music. The latest news had said that she is doing medicine.
  • There was another big hype about her being asked by Ang Lee to star in his latest flick Lust and Caution. However, rumors said she had turned it down due to nudity scenes. Yet, some sources had said that Ang Lee had never asked her at all; it was a publicity stunt for her.

[edit] Mayonaka no Door

  • Even if this song's title is Japanese, did she sing this song first in Japanese or Chinese? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.75.3.84 (talk) 17:11, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
