Of course, people love to tear down a asian star. She is starring in one of HBO's most anticipated series which she flew twice to audition. And why not, have a representation of South East Asian on a major international magazine cover. We also come in different shades. When Lady Gaga started to do acting, no one bat an eye on here. When an accomplished K-pop singer started to do so, people start complaining.

Are those comments being made because people don't like Asians, or could it be general fatigue and cynicism at the massive promotional machine that's behind any aspect of K-pop and their stable of stars, which seems to have little nuance in its promotional methods, and doesn't offer much to a non-fan beyond the impression of a tightly-controlled exterior life that's lived under constant vigilance?

Notice no one was complaining about Dev Patel? Because he’s an actor.

Now, Lisa may wind up being completely fabulous in the new season of The White Lotus when it’s released next year, but putting someone with currently zero acting performances in any Hollywood films or TV shows alongside a slew of acclaimed actors is an odd move.

Had they given Gaga a spot on a Hollywood issue cover or any covers dedicated to top/exceptional actors prior to any of her acting work being released, that’d be odd too. But it never happened.
