Tis' the nature of beauty -- it doesn't last. On the exterior, at
least.
Besides, Lin did come into the limelight much earlier -- as Jerry
Yan's girlfriend. (Yan was one of the members of Taiwanese boyband
F4). However, she wasn't much noticed at that time, not even with
Yan by her side. Only after she had broken up with him, had
undergone a make-over, and had landed a few groundbreaking modeling
and endorsement contracts did her fame start to spread.

Introducing her ex-boyfriend... (photo illegally ripped from her

Fret not. Lin probably also knows her looks are fading as well,
and she has agreed to release a nude but non-revealing pictorial as
a means of preserving her beauty in print. Forever.
