Bangkok Sirens: Sonia Couling

What’s up everyone! Sorry for the huge delay (busy doing other projects, switching jobs, finding one in the recession, the usual), but I’m back!

Anyway, enough about me, let’s cut to the chase and talk about our featured Thai hottie. As you have read from Yardthip Rajpal last time, I’m into the luk kruengs.

And frankly if you haven’t seen Sonia “Pim” Couling when searching online for Eurasians, then you haven’t been looking hard enough.

By Tom, Thai Girls

For those of you that have passed RCA recently, she’s on a huge billboard there smiling. Hard to miss. She’s been around for ages and has tried to exploit the modeling scene in Asia, although falling just a little too short.

This Thai-British cover girl (like Sara Lane & Tata Young) has tried her very best to break out of the mould. While not doing the odd modeling she went and became VJ-ing for MTV Singapore, just like Sirinya Burbridge (aka Sirinya Winsiri aka Cindy Bishop) did.

The brave girl actually put herself out there and reached out to the execs for the Tyra Banks Show: America’s Next Top Model and did the Thai version back in 2005. But as we all know, Thai people are more interested in established celebrities rather than the upcoming ones.

Not sure if we’ll see a second season.

Sonia has a solid following in Asia, but before she was 14 her flawless face went international as a 7-Up spokesmodel.

Sonia remains best known for her ‘98-’99 MTV stint as a VJ. She also ranked No. 2 on FHM’s list of Sexiest Women in Asia and No. 23 on the magazine’s list of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World.

By now Sonia has the whole range of photo shoots, from high-fashion to bikini-clad. Nothing gets in her way when she’s out looking for work, as you can see from the whole range of shots below – and this one’s for AIS:





But guess what, she’s married. To another Eurasian luk krueng, Wim, a French-Thai guy …:

My rating? 7/10

    Sonia is honestly one of the most beautiful girls I’ve ever seen in my life. To this day, I am still so incredibly awed by her beauty. She’s just a freak of nature for being that gorgeous. Of course, all women are beautiful, and I’m sure she’ll agree with me on that one.
