An "insider" tells Page Six that the production of Memoirs of a Geisha has been slowed because they've hired any Asian actor they can get their hands on (whether or not they're Japanese like the story's characters), necessitating a small army of translators to get anything done. Naturally, the producers "laughed off" the insider's story, saying, "They all look alike anyway! Who cares if they can't understand each other?" OK, they didn't actually say that, but we've got a feeling that's their favorite on-set joke anytime something goes wrong (other than "Well, that's why Spielberg dumped this project!")
