EXTRAjz:Copyright 1996 Warner Bros. EXTRAjz:Everyone, please join EXTRA in welcoming the beautiful Sung Hi Lee for her first online chat!

EX Sung Hi:Hello everybody, I'm glad you could join me! EXTRAjz:From Bearz85: Question:what are you doing to help other young Asian-American women realize their dreams? EX Sung Hi:I just got back from the Hawaiian Tropic event in Hawaii, and a lot of girls were asking me for pointers on makeup, hair, etc. My advice to them was to be themselves and to be natural. Because definitions of beauty are changing and ethnic models are becoming more mainstream. EXTRAjz:From Bamafan35: Question:My wife is from Korea (adopted when a baby) and models a little locally, though not swimsuits. She's gorgeous, too! Do you have any advice for her, as an Asian in the business? EX Sung Hi:As far as modeling it's a bit limited, because Asian women tend to be shorter. You could have her send her photo in to Black Pearl Prods. at: PO box 1829 Beverly Hills, CA 90213 EXTRAjz:From dan697: Question:Why did you pose for Playboy EX Sung Hi:First: Playboy makes everyone look beautiful and who doesn't want to look beautiful. 2nd: Playboy is mainstream and does everything quite classy.

EX Sung Hi:Firast of all, I don't consider myself the "most" beautiful woman in the country, but I think Asian beauty is reaching it's fruition now. Only five years ago, Asian women were not as accepted in modeling or society in general. EXTRAjz:From MS106089: Question:Where in Seoul where you born? EX Sung Hi:I don't know exactly know for sure.

EXTRAjz:From JPaulBlai: Question:Why did you decide on a butterfly tatoo? EX Sung Hi:I can't believe you recognized that as a butterfly. Butterflies symbolize evolution in a person. They evolve from a cocoon to a beautiful butterfly. It's about growth of a human being. EXTRAjz:From NSchell30: Question:Are you married? EX Sung Hi:No... NO!!!
