10	!!This actress provides examples of:
11
12	* ActionGirl: Frequently plays them.
13	* DirectedByCastMember: She directed and starred in ''Film/ScarletDiva'' and ''Film/TheHeartIsDeceitfulAboveAllThings''.
14	* FakeRussian: In ''Film/XXx'', she plays the Russian Yelena.
15	* MsFanservice: Definitely not shy about taking her clothes off. Though it somewhat dampens the titillation when you realize that many of those nude scenes featured her father behind the camera.
16	* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: In nearly all of her roles she has played in, Asia speaks in her natural Italian accent.
17	* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Her American accent in ''Film/TheHeartIsDeceitfulAboveAllThings'' is all over the place. It keeps slipping back to her own accent.
18	* RoleEndingMisdemeanor: Jimmy Bennett accused Asia Argento on August 2018 of sexually assaulting him when he was 17 [[note]]in California, a State in which the age of sexual consent is 18[[/note]] after she had been a mother figure to him for over a decade and revealed she agreed to pay him to keep him silent. She was fired from her position as judge of ''Series/TheXFactor'' Italy; she would appear in the seven earlier episodes of the ongoing season before being replaced afterwards. Ironically, she was an important voice of the [=#MeToo=] movement and one of the people that denounced Harvey Weinstein as a sexual predator.
19	* StarDerailingRole: ''Film/MotherOfTears''. Because of that movie's negative reception, she's done secondary roles in TV series and independent drama films until the French movie ''Cadences obstinées'' [[CreatorKiller put the final nail in the coffin]], completely destroying her career as an actress. Her last work was directing a Music Video for ''Music/{{Indochine}}'''s "La vie est belle". Now, she's stuck as a TV columnist, although she was an important voice of the [=#MeToo=] movement and one of the people who denounced Harvey Weinstein as a sexual offender.
20	* TheStoner: Known for taking all kinds of drugs. On the DVDCommentary for ''Film/TheHeartIsDeceitfulAboveAllThings'', she explains all the different drugs she has done during the making of this movie. We even see footage of her doing them in the montage where her character goes out with different men.
