cnn: five rising asian american stars to watch

So, several months back, CNN did a story on Wong Fu Productions, apparently inspired by their spot on my list of the 30 Most Influential Asian Americans Under 30. I was interviewed on camera for the story, but I guess I didn't make it into the the final cut. No big deal.

But during my interview, I was also asked if I could name five rising Asian American stars to watch in entertainment. I hadn't really thought about it, but off the top of my head, I named a couple of of musicians and actors (including Wong Fu) who I think are doing some pretty good work.

That was four months ago. I completely forgot about it until this week, when this post popped on CNN's Marquee Blog: Five rising Asian-American stars to watch. Better late than never, I suppose. Special thanks to Douglas Hyde of CNN for giving me the opportunity. As for these five rising stars, hopefully, they are indeed people to watch.
