So, Bono, have U2 joined the ranks of Westerners that fell under the spell of a Chinese dragon lady?

China is taking over the world. Or more specifically, many famous Chinese women are taking over Western men who rule the world. The latest alpha male to fall victim to the charm of those irresistible dragon ladies is Bono.

At a Paris fashion show this week, the U2 lead singer and global aid advocate reportedly completely fell under the spell of Fan Bingbing, who has been billed as China's most beautiful woman.

Paparazzi at the event were left breathless as the two chatted away all night, totally ignoring Bono's longtime wife, Ali Hewson, who was also present.

Could Fan be the temptress to stand in the way of the picture-perfect couple, which everyone has been admiring in the latest Louis Vuitton ad (pictured)? If she were, she would be only following in the footsteps of illustrious predecessors such as Wendi Deng, whose hubby Rupert Murdoch just happens to control the world of news; and Zhang Ziyi , whose billionaire beau, Vivi Nevo, is a leading shareholder of Time Warner.

The Great Helmsman, Mao Zedong , once said that women hold up half the sky. These dragon ladies may be holding up much more.
