Blind Item Solved!
The Internet assembled into one big Detective La Toya last October when a Texas-based Asian American actress threw a $1 million lawsuit at IMDB for exposing her real age of 40 instead of posting her Hollywood age of 30-something. The female question mark of Asian descent wanted IMDB to pay for fucking with her money, because she claimed in her lawsuit that Hollywood discriminates against 40-something unknown actresses. The guesses were everyone from Catherine Zeta-Jones (a valid guess) to Bai Ling to the entire cast of The Joy Luck Club. The good thing that came out of this is that it made me watch The Joy Luck Club again and I bonded with my dog by reciting the line "You make-ah me happeh" into his eyes on a daily basis.
Anyway, IMDB asked a judge to dismiss the case if the actress didn't reveal her identity. The Hollywood Reporter reports that the judge has sided with IMDB and the anonymous actress has dramatically stepped out of the dark and revealed that she's the one and only:
According to those bitches who did her wrong, IMDB, Junie Hoang was born Huong Hoang in Saigon, Vietnam on June 16, 1971. Junie's illustrious credits include 12 Corazones, My Big Phat Hip Hop Family, The Bong Connection, Operation Repo, Gingerbread Man 3: Saturday Night Cleaver and an episode of I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant as a triage nurse.
If you guessed Junie Hoang, then give yourself a slap in the face and follow it up with a punch to the eye, because that's what you get for lying. Nobody guessed Junie Hoang! Because nobody knows who Junie Hoang is. But I guess a bunch of us do now and I hope that Junie Hoang at least gets to play the role of Junie Hoang when some show on truTv does a reenactment of this. (SPOILER ALERT: She won't. Some 20-year-old white girl will get the role.)
in defense of the men, women have all these cosmetics and keep their hair and if they keep themselves healthy have hair volume till they're very old etc so they have quite a few weapons to make themselves presentable once they get out of the shower, men on the other hand, once that 5 inch forehead appears or they loose their top hair completely it looks wrong and aging right away even if they're in their 20's or have relatively great skin, also if they cover anything up it's gay so imagine having to go out with your natural weathered face and bald head every day for the rest of your life, that would be quite a struggle i suppose,
if i look this good when I'm 40 i would shout it from the mountains, sing it to the flowers, etc..
I want to know what the hell is wrong with Junie. She's a hot Asian chick, why is she wasting her time acting in D movies when she could be sharpening her golddigging game and setting her sights on some fat old billionaire with a sketchy heart?
BTW, I would love to know celebs true ages. Especially phonies like Beyonce and CZJ. I think at one point Beyonce was like 25 for four years.
Whatever skin care products she uses, that company should consider hiring her as a spokesperson. She looks great.

If she wins he lawsuit, she'll prolly end up with just enough money to... pay her lawyer for the lawsuit.
And then she can slip right back into obscurity.
Profiting from minute in the spotlight FAIL.
But she is famous, sorta! She was in 21 Jump Street with Johnny Depp, right? But she was a guy then.
I don't know who the fuck this person is.

It's ok to be a redneck by the way.. just don't yell git 'er done because we all hate that.
This dumb ho should have just shut her mouth and kept lying about her age instead of going this route. She could easily pass for late 20s. So she has great genes. It's not like she is that rare in her profession in looking age and lying about their age ANYWAY.
I bet we won't even see her ass in C-movies now.
And I never lie about my age and I don't look anything like it but I hate when people lie about their age, because I believe I have earned every year on this fuckin' earth! This Black and Pocahantas ain't about to crack anytime soon!

Isn't the general rule, if you haven't started making ripples in the celebrity pool by 25 you aren't going to? This trick is 10 years from menopause and worrying about being aged out of the process. Girl, please.

That's the way I understood it too. Junie reminds me of this other chick, Sarah Lazare who co-wrote Psychic Junkie. Sarah is an actress too, but all her movies are below B. Never heard of any of them. She is more known for the book than her actual "career."

If your goal in life is to be famous and have all of your shit on display, don't be pissed off when people find out the truth and then blast it.

This. A million times this. Fuck.
Guess she just made sure that we won't have to worry about seeing her in anything again.
A million? REALLY?
Ha, Wouldn't it be nice to pull that off in real life.

I'm almost 40 and am regularly mistaken for anywhere from 18 to 30 so whatever to 40 is old.

Right? People think my 20 y/o and I are sisters. I am going to be 44 next month. I just have great genes. My mom is 70 and is just now starting to turn grey. My grandmother was almost 90 when she passed, and her hair was salt & pepper.
I'm not familiar with this actress, but she doesn't look 40. I think she looks great. Ageism sucks, but age is just a number. I love women like Mimi Kirk, Karen Calabrese & Ernestine Shepherd who all are in phenomenal shape and look like they're in their 40s & 50s (they're all between 60 &70). We women need to accept growing old gracefully. I have a few greys, but I refuse to color my hair or get plastic surgery. I think I look pretty damn good for 44 y/o broad. And I my black ain't cracked, either, lol!
OMG I love her! I've never seen any of the shows she has been on and I've only seen Doce Corazones a handful of times but only bits if I'm home and my parents are waiting for a Novela to start at 8pm. I think the show was cancelled. Who cares? Shedoesn'tlook40andher"career"won'ttakeahitbecausesomemightthinkshesolderlmfaohahahaahahahahahaha!

Not Zeta-Jones? Not St. Angie? Whew! Glad it was somebody IMPORTANT who filed this lawsuit. You know, someone whose career will clearly take a nosedive because of all this. Not just a no-talent hack who could only benefit from any news coverage this gets.

I believe legally IMDB can't be held liable. If the content true and she's a public figure, IMDB is protected.
However, she is right. Age-ism exists for men and women loud and clear, nary even an attempt to conceal it.
Fat chance anyone would protect civil rights in this stinkin pro-business environment.

Hard pressed to see how her age is hurting her career. Its her career thats hurting her career.

The knee-jerk reaction to every story is so predictable. It's almost like we're being trained to hate people here.
No offense, but this is a gossip site. Please don't rain on the hate parade. I love the snark on the D. I have seen some very smart posts by you but you also come across as a bit of a killjoy. I speak for no one but me by the way and hope you keep posting. Take care.

i'm with IMdB. my friend is an actress, in actual movies (not big parts though). she has an IMdB page, where not only did she change her name (it's not legally her name), but she lied about her age. i'm thinking maybe this lady may have left the "age" blank on purpose and IMdB filled it out for her by default?
Tornadolie,
She paid her dues to the website and when she gave her real full name while paying by credit card, the site searched and found her true age and posted it. I'm pretty sure how this whole thing started.

Awwwwwwww, poor girl looks like a young Thai tucker. That is the true problem.
Being an older woman: The encouraging thing was my plump, 50 year old friend getting hired on the spot (after three years of unemployment) because of her resume and experience.
She said everyone in her company is older and it's a great pleasure working with people who know what the fuck they're doing who've been around the block who aren't trying to find husbands and cause drama. She said everyone is grateful for their work, they're seasoned professionals who have realistic expectations of the job and they don't want any whippersnappers fucking it up.
RIGHT ON, MAH SISTAH!
Hearing her talk literally brought tears to my eyes.
Wait....I thought "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" wsa 100% real truf?

I'm on her side. She's 100% correct. Didn't they say that she maintained her page and paid with her CC and gave the "name exactly as it appears on your card" then they used it to date her? I'm glad I never participated on their site when I could've, that and its a waste of my time.

It's okay for a male to be 40.
For a female, 40 is OLD.
Hell, 30 is old.
And old means, if you are a woman, never getting a decent acting part again.
I love how the people insisting that age discrimination isn't a problem for women are the SAME people on here who scornfully point out every single sag, blemish or wrinkle on a woman's face or body.
I used to think that sites like Dlisted were just places where we could all shoot the shit and harmlessly let off steam, but I have begun to wonder about that lately. The knee-jerk reaction to every story is so predictable. It's almost like we're being trained to hate people here.

This headline right here is probably the best thing to happen to her career. At least now more than 12 people have seen her in something.

Nailed it. She's probably eating some woof-woof and meow-meow stew right now in celebration of her stint on dlisted.
IMDB publishing her age more than likely has NOTHING to do with her getting jobs or not. But I guess it's nice to have a fall guy.
I guess she has to blame someone. She's surely NOT going to blame the studio or production companies for discrimination which would mean she would never get a job.
There's always the option of finding another line of work?
