Actress Bai Ling says she's writing a book about her years performing for the Chinese army in Tibet, and she's doing a reality TV show for the U.S. cable network VH1, a Hong Kong magazine reports in its April edition.

The TV show's title will be "something seductive or sexy," the spunky, petite star was quoted by Prestige Hong Kong as saying in an interview.

"They think I am some sort of an avant-garde symbol of modern Hollywood pop culture, and they want to work with that," said the actress, who stared with Richard Gere in the 1997 thriller "Red Corner."

The actress also appeared on the VH1 series "But Can They Sing?"

Bai Ling, 35, won best supporting actress in Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards and the Hong Kong Film Awards for her role in the 2004 film "Dumplings."

She said she worked for the People's Liberation Army entertaining troops in Tibet before she emigrated to the U.S. in 1991, the magazine reported.

"Right now, I am writing a book about my experience in Tibet as a soldier," she reportedly said. "I started when I was 14, singing and dancing and playing instruments."

She said she learned English from her boyfriends after she arrived in America.

"Pillow talk really forces you to learn. It makes you want to talk," she was quoted as saying. "I am still learning. Sometimes I don't understand everything, only the general idea."

She also posed for a pictorial in Playboy magazine -- something she has no regrets doing, the magazine said.

"I feel like my whole life I have been writing apology letters, to my school teachers, to my army leaders, to my country," she was quoted as saying. "So I don't apologize that I had the opportunity to be the first Asian woman on the cover of Playboy magazine. They already had the image of me as a sex symbol."
