Ever since she was thrust into the public eye — albeit rather unwillingly — as the other half of Mandopop king Jay Chou, people have always thought of Taiwanese-Australian actress Hannah Quinlinvan as being sweet and demure, no thanks to her large, doe eyes and long hair.
Well, it appears her latest photo shoot and interview aim to challenge that impression. The 27-year-old was recently featured in the August issue of a Taiwanese magazine looking a lot different from her usual self. Gone are the cute dresses and chest-length locks, with an androgynous wardrobe and edgy pixie cut in their place. And yes, her ‘do is even shorter than the one she sported in her Hollywood debut Skyscraper.
