Kappa Kappa Wong

Animated TV shows or movies in which Lauren Tom, best known as Ross' Rachel-enraging girlfriend Julie on "Friends," has supplied the voice for a female Asian character:

• "Superman: The Animated Series" as Angela Chen
• "King of the Hill" as Minh Souphanousinphone and her daughter, Kahn Jr.
• "Batman and Mr. Freeze: Sub-Zero" as Mariko
• "Futurama" as Amy Wong and her mom, Ynez Wong
• "Max Steel" as Laura Chen
• "Teacher's Pet" as Younghee
• "Batman Beyond" as Dana Tan
• "The Zeta Project" as Agent Lee
• "Codename: Kids Next Door" as Numbuh Three
• "Clifford's Puppy Days" as Shun
• "Kim Possible" as Yoshiko
• "The Infinite Darcy" as Darcy Chang
• "Mulan II" as Su
• "Teen Titans" as Gizmo

I guess it goes without saying that all the live-action roles she's performed are Asian women also, but I just think it's strange that she's done this so often. I mean, it's not that she sounds particularly Asian. Any voice could theoretically come out of an Asian person's mouth. But they always go to Lauren Tom whenever they need a voice for an Asian girl. I mean, shit — it's not like Ming-Na is so busy.

That Lauren Tom — she gets around.
