| | Boxoffice Cover Story: "China Girl"--Gong Li Profile |
 | | Finally, Gong Li is coolly disdainful of the media and of the intrusions into her private life that are the wages of fame, although she reluctantly agrees to the occasional interview and knows the importance of having a public presence. | | | When Gong wasn't doing interviews, shopping in the boutiques of Monaco or posing for pictures--Paris Match devoted an entire photo spread to her--she was turning up at events for L'Oreal, which in 1997 appointed her one of its international representatives. | | | Adding to her roster of awards, last year Gong was given France's highest cultural honor, the Officier des Arts et des Lettres. |
