MSM has caught up with the charms of Anna Sophie Loewenberg's "Sexy Beijing" segments on Danwei TV. Read all it about on CNN.com:

Eventually, former colleague Jeremy Goldkorn and his friend Luke Mines persuaded [Anna Sophie Loewenberg] to move back to China last year and join them at Goldmines Film Productions. Goldkorn -- who previously was managing editor of the English-language entertainment weekly Beijing Scene for which Loewenberg had written, had already started a popular Web site Danwei.org and was looking at expanding into Web TV. Would she join them on film projects and help them get this business off the ground?

Loewenberg jumped at it, but after coming up with the concept for "Sexy Beijing," she thought hard about using parts of her real identity. Did she want to include that she was single? A Jew? Her name "Su Fei"?

"You could take your glasses off, and you can look really gorgeous," Loewenberg recalled her mother as helpfully saying, in an attempt to get her to ditch her horn-rims.

She kept them.

Can fame and fortune be far behind?

Oddly enough my wife was watching Sex in the City last night. When I heard the theme it was the image of Anna Sophie recoiling from the garbage in the Sexy Beijing intro that popped into my head.

The most recent episode of Sexy Beijing, on "Sexy San Ba" (International Women's Day) is here.
