Think of a celebrity. Any celebrity. Odds are they're called something entirely different in China, thanks to translations and a love of wordplay. And some of the nicknames the Chinese media and internet gives them are ~amazing~.
For example, Nicki Minaj is known as 麻辣鸡 / Ma La Ji — which literally translates to "Numbing Spicy Chicken." A flubbed interview with a Taiwanese newsperson led to Leonardo DiCaprio being called "Pikachu." And James Franco has the less than appealing nickname of 腐兰兰 / Fu Lan Lan — or "Rotten Orchard."
Here's some of our favorite of those nicknames. Scroll all the way down to figure out what your Chinese celebrity nickname would be!
