Using renowned Chinese actress Li Lihua's border-crossing career in Asia and the United States during the 1950s as a case study, this article examines how Asian free celebrities like Li participated in and complicated the facile dichotomy of democracy versus communism in Cold War discourse. When read in juxtaposition with her writing in the US-funded magazine World Today, Li's appearance in the Hollywood war film China Doll (1958) exposes the tensions within the Free China-US relationship on the one hand and, on the other, reasserts the role of Nationalist China in the Free China-US matrix.
