Stumbled across this, too:

Shu Qi in The Swim

And finally, ending years of tears about her not-so-secret porn roots, creative chameleon Shu Qi has accepted an offer to pose for a revealing series of seductive swimsuit shots.

The Taiwanese temptress told reporters recently she considered the offer for quite some time before giving it a green light-agreeing only after her photo fee broke the rmb10 million mark.

Shu added that she would take a long-awaited break after the photo shoot, using the earnings to support herself for a year of fun and language exchange in London.

(thanks David!)
