Having given up hope on obtaining on the grand but elusive peace of her Eastern ancestors' Buddhism, Lucy Liu now turns to the faith of the chosen people for her guidance:
…Liu has been spotted reading "The First Hebrew Primer" between takes on the New York set of "Cashmere Mafia." The book is a guide to understanding biblical Hebrew.
Our backstage snitch says: "Lucy is so nice and friendly on the set and always knows her lines, so instead of studying the script, she reads her 'Hebrew Primer.'"
Speculation says Liu's friendship with magic believer and Kabbalah enthusiast Demi Moore may be the origin of this newfound interest in Hebrew. I say it was the recent spate of long weekends the Tribe enjoyed. And who can blame her? It was gorgeous out!
After the jump, more from the set of Cashmere Mafia.

you know, not every jewish person has a last name that ends in "berg" cord. ;)
Thank you, Deimos. Some of us still spell it "burg."
Best,
Lale Jewelerburg
i got a best!!!!! i heart you lale!
Oh, I heart you back, my dear!
I can't even pay attention to the article because I am so damned annoyned by the movie title. Cashmere Mafia? Really? Someone confused clever with fucking stupid. Now Polyester Mafia is another story all together…
I'm a member of the Jersey Cotton Mafia. We are very comfy at all times.
i know, when i saw the headline i was like, "lucy liu is going to direct?" but it turns out she's reading the Hebrew Primer - a book i've never heard of but it sounds like a hornbook she found at her one-room schoolhouse.
I've never heard of this craptastic book either. I guess if Demi and Lucy are reading it then it must be good?
I'm going to destroy the Jersey Cotton Mafia single-handedly. Jersey sheets wrinkle too darn much.
Lucy Liu lives in New York City. Everyone there becomes part Jewish through osmosis.
I can stereotype if I damn well want to!
I see all the Steins have been wiped off the Jewish map. *tsk, tsk*
I love Lucy. If she starts wearing the red band around her wrist, I'll be so disappointed.
Oh, Ricky! Sorry, you started it with I love Lucy, Mr. T.
He's got some splaining to do.
Maybe Mr. T can have Fred and Ethel over for dinner, where hijinks will ensue.
