Karen Mok releases nearly nude photos in new book

SINGAPORE - Twenty years is a long time to be in show business. But Hong Kong-born pop diva and actress Karen Mok would have you know that despite boasting a wealth of experience, she is no jaded, world-weary veteran.

The sultry, ageless 43-year-old Eurasian goddess is celebrating two decades in the music industry in the best style possible - by baring her porcelain skin. Lots of it.

In conjunction with her upcoming commemorative three-album and DVD box set, The Age of MOKnificence, Mok - who launched her career with her 1993 eponymous Cantopop studio effort - has released a titillating photo book that features her in different states of undress.

The Age of MOKnificence will be out in stores here later this month.
