All previous three marriages were tumultuous failures. Not many people even knew he had remarried but when news broke out that Bruce had passed away, it became apparent that Angela Chao was the new widow of this Wall Street tycoon. His marriage to Angela took place in January 2009, the same year that he passed away, just after his daughter from his third wife was born!
So who exactly is ANGELA CHAO? An influential financial and political force to be reckoned with herself, it's no wonder she was so attractive to Mr Wasserstein. She is the heiress to the shipping and finance conglomerate Foremost Group founded by her Chinese father James Chao.
A magna cum laude MBA alumni of Harvard Business School, Angela is now Deputy Chairman at Foremost Group, and serves on the boards of New York City Economic Development Corporation, China State Shipbuilding Corporation, China Council of International Trade, BIMCO and the Shanghai Mulan Education Foundation.
The Wall Street Journal has named her as one of the key founding women in the debate to shape the US economy. Angela is also politically connected to the Republican movement and the Bush Administration. Her sister Elaine Chao served as the Labor Secretary to George W. Bush.
Zhang Ziyi - International Chinese Actress And Israeli Millionaire Vivi Nevo
Actress Zhang Ziyi is no stranger to both the West and the East! Having already carved a big name for herself in the Chinese and Hong Kong movie industry, this seductive Earth Sheep first became an international star when she was cast in the hugely successful Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
Her later performances in House of Flying Daggers, Rush Hour 2 and Memoirs of a Geisha solidified her as the most sought after Asian female martial arts actress in the eyes of the movie enthusiasts around the globe. Already legendary for taking on spirited on-screen roles that break-away from the traditional stereotypes of the helpless, denture and subdued Asian girls, Zhang is determined to change the perception of Asian women through her work. She prefers to star in roles that play up their inner courage and abilities to fight for their convictions despite being thrust into adversity and social gender-oppression.
Over the years Zhang has earned a reputation for refusing acting offers that portray Asian women in a lowly way or as victims of domestic trafficking.
Even in her personal life. Zhang has surprised her Asian audience around the world by choosing potential husbands outside of her own ethnicity. Three years ago Zhang was highly engaged to Romanian/Israli multi-millionaire Vivi Nero, the largest shareholder of Time Warner Company.
Unfortunately the Ox Year of 2009 turned to be a really bad year for Zhang, with the Grand Duke Jupiter clashing with the SHEEP. And by the time she entered the Year of the Tiger in 2010, the Five Yellow had already done its damage in the Sheep's palace of the Southwest, bringing bitter loss to her relationship with Vivi. Zhang ended their relationship in 2010 and has kept a low ever since.
But news of a new love has set the tabloid tongues a-wagging again! There are rumors that Zhang is secretly engaged to her ex-boyfriend Erik Fok, (the second son of millionaire tycoon Timothy Fok).
So what will be Zhang's next step? There's no official news about her plans yet, but the grapevine reports that she soon to be attached to a new Keanu Reeves movie "Man of Taichi" where she will be cast as a martial arts expert! We look forward to seeing Zhang fending off dozens of men with her kungfu again soon!
PRISCILLA CHAN Doctor And Teacher Attached To Facebook Founder MARK ZUCKERBERG
She is a Chinese-American from Boston and he grew up in New York. But it was in Harvard University that this couple met, at a Jewish party back in 2003. At that time Priscilla was already a shining medical student and Mark had just got himself expelled for "facesmash', a pilot project which hatched into what is now the largest and most valuable social networking website in the world!
After a short separation when Priscilla moved to the University of California in San Francisco to pursue her post-graduate degree, Mark invited her to live with him in his $7 million dollar Palo Alto home, purchased shortly after making a fortune on the Facebook deal.
But is this young Chinese lady actually engaged to this ultra-eligible Wood Rat, who at the age of 26 has already been listed Time Person of the Year, Number 1 person in the New Establishment by Vanity Fair, 52nd richest man in the world, with a wealth base of US$13.5 billion?
Rumor has it that the couple is secretly betrothed, a speculation fueled by a slip of the tongue during a Bill Gates interview, (Bill accidentally referred to Priscilla as Mark's fiancee and the fact that the couple already been seriously dating for than 7 years! Although they publicly deny being engaged, we think it won't be long before we see a big diamond on her ring finger. Mark and Priscilla are already living in the same house and have both recently adopted a pet dog together! We'll know for sure social status in Facebook switches from "in a relationship" to "engaged!" We advise Miss Chan to place some crystals and light in the Southwest if she wants to seal the deal with this internet mogul soon!
