Geisha Grrl

Zhang Ziyi's feeling pretty good about herself now that she's been chosen to be the lead in the Hollywood adaptation of Memoirs of a Geisha. That's still no excuse for showing up to the Japanese premiere of House of the Flying Daggers (inexplicably renamed "Lovers" in Japan) in cutesy combat boots.

She may have wanted to show that she can work a girly gown but she's also about Raw Punk! Attitude! Danger Danger!. However she looks like she went out for a spot of gardening and got caught in a barbwire fence that was meant to keep out rabid soft toys. If Tyra Banks were there, she would be declaring "you are so not edgy, girl". Please go join Franka Potente and Cybil Shepherd in footwear purgatory.
