A woman performing as a 天女 tiannü (celestial maiden) during events for the Luoyang Peony Cultural Festival, an annual spring festival celebrating history and folk customs related to the flower blooming season.

天女散花, "tiannü scattering flowers" is an idiom used often to describe things being poured, heavy snow, etc, and comes from a Buddhist tale of a tiannü who sprinkled flowers over a bodhisattva and disciple to test them, with the flowers only falling over the bodhisattva's body.

not only should we all be striving for just that, but we also should always spell and pronounce "that is it" as "dassit"

EVA GABOR, the original voice for DUCHESS and MISS BIANCA

“I do a scene and the animators watch carefully. My voice is taped. Then the animators imitate my gestures. I play the character. When you see the character, you see me. The animators are absolute genius. It is incredible. I work with the writers to suit my way of performance…I gave up trying to lose my accent. It’s been too lucrative to lose it. The trouble is I don’t hear my accent. I hear everybody else’s…I play tennis like mad, and then I go out in the evenings. I couldn’t do it without wigs. I still believe everyone should look their best or shouldn’t go out. It takes a lot of effort.”
