I’m not really sure why these pictures are posted here? On her social media, or her friend’s social media maybe, but what are they here for?
You can’t deny she’s cute and can rock a pair of short shorts. Credit where credit is due.
I can deny it. She looks like an uncomfortable pre-pubescent boy. The only credit due is to acknowledge that there are a lot of lascivious people who fetishize this kind of thing.
she literally looks male…. I don’t see how people find this creature attractive.
I think it is the moderator who cannot resist (to cheapen the site…)
Facebook ad. Sorry bud, you won’t get me to log into Facebook even for Yuja pics.
“Facebook ad. Sorry bud, you won’t get me to log into Facebook even for Yuja pics.”
You don’t have to log in to anything to access the images. A fun fact you could have known if you’d just clicked on the link. (And no, I don’t even have a FB account.)
Sorry, bud, but maybe you should just check stuff BEFORE writing things? That way you might actually know what you’re talking about for a change. No? Ah well.
No, we know YOU can’t resist.
And…?
The great pianist recently posted on FB an excerpt from a 2018 DG recording. It sounds wonderful to me.

Great pianist? Then what are Martha Argerich and Maria João Pires?
Heck, I would rather listen to Gabriela Montero, Anne-Marie McDermott or the grossly underrated Ann Schein – though she may have retired.
Arguably Argerich and Pires are two of the greatest living pianists.
Thank you for mentioning Anne-Marie McDermott and Ann Schein. I’ll explore their recordings.
As for Yuja Wang, we are all entitled to our opinions. Personally I look forward to hearing an older and more mature Wang. At present I have little doubt that among her generation’s best known pianists, she is one of the most talented.
Incredible talent. I don’t need the shorts or the revealing dresses, just for her to play the piano. But sadly a feature of that generation is the desperate need to over-share with everybody via Facebook.
Er…it was ever thus. And you should know that people are different, some want to “overshare” and others don’t.
I can resist.
Come on, man, you can do your bit to recognize woman artists for their art and not their goddamn wardrobe. stop running stories like this! Leave it to News of the World .
But this IS a tabloid site, can’t you see…?
Leave her alone, your interest in her is creepy. It’s no business of yours what she wears, especially off the concert platform.
NL is yet another middle-age/old white man lusting/fantasizing after young Asian women.
Of course ‘other’ middle aged men, old or young, do not objectify young women? There is something to criticise here but not necessarily through the lens of CRT.
@Cynical – the words “yet another” indicate that caranome realizes that NL’s case is far from unique.
If you think so (and it’s very doubtful) and that she’s looking for any men to ‘lust’ after her I think you are missing clues about Yuja Wang.
I know Yuja personally and she thinks Norman posting about her shorts is creepy and weird.
(wears tight shorts and crop top)
“What are you looking at?”
I definitely respect her piano skills, but failing to acknowledge her physical attractiveness would be nonsense. She obviously enjoys the attention from some folks; ridiculous of her to expect to control which folks are titillated by her outfits.
Keep posting these items, NL, and let the gals know we appreciate their efforts to attract attention.
Absolutely priceless, coming from an exhibitionist!!!
Who cares?
Most of us are baking in a heat dome. Gotta to stay cool somehow.
This is getting odd now. Same for the Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla obsession.
Shorts or no shorts, she is a stupendous pianist, one of the finest of the younger generation.
Whether that’s really true, which is not by any means universally agreed, it is certainly true that she’s a kind of exhibitionist and has no problem being seen as unserious. Doesn’t help anyone’s reception of her playing.
Her piano playing is also very talented, and a bit “exhibitionist”, which is not to everyones tastes.
I can’t resist. Thank you Norman.
She is what our staid industry needs. Great musician, vibrant personality, star charisma, and easy on the eyes.
We need more Yujas.
And yes, in case you didn’t know, sex appeal sells. The pop world always knew that. Why is it so bad in our world of Classical music.
And remember. Ladies fainted and swooned when Liszt performed recitals.
But that’s music history.
The problem is that a present day Lisa della Casa would make it big too early, possibly at the expense of her artistic development, and a present day Cherkassky would have little chance of success.
Your obsession with Yuja has crossed into creepy and inappropriate a long time ago. You are acting like a disgusting, creepy and lecherous old pervert. Stop it.
We can listen to her preformance of Shostakovich Piano Concerto No. 2 with the LSO & Michael Tilson Thomas in London recently.

Just another Page 3 girl photo from a British site.
Have to admit, Yuja rocks them – more than Mirga ever could, sorry Norman.
Am I the only one who finds her a bit overrated? How is she any different from any other attractive female pianist who decides to dress for warm weather?
You’re a bad person Norman. You and your sad gang are not of any value, have never been and no one will remember you
Presumably you go looking for these on a regular basis. Are there not days when you realise how much of a sad creep you are?
I can tell you this: You’ll never see pics like that of Hilary Hahn. darn…
Rock on Norman, because it’s your website and you can!!
This obsession is getting a bit weird
…
I fancy Yuja would prefer not be lusted after by old men, if she thinks about it (only ones she might herself fancy, but that is human nature)… BUT she also knows that she looks more than ok and that she needs to provide Instagram style life pics and a social media presence. Next?
