The photographs were non-nude, however, and Chia defends them as "tasteful, stylish and sensuous but not pornographic. " Chia has an acting career in Chinese movies and series such as The 3rd Generation, Possessed, and Trio & a Bed. Chia is gradually becoming a well-known actress in Taiwan and China, appearing regularly in TV host shows and sitcoms.
