Washington, Blasian Invasion: Racial Mixing in the Celebrity Industrial Complex, Jackson, MS: The University Press of Mississippi, 2017, 192 pp., $65.00 (hardcover).
Blasian Invasion: Racial Mixing in the Celebrity Industrial Complex is a unique consideration of the emergence within the past two decades of multiracial Black and Asian/American legibility in media.

As an example of Blasian branding, Washington analyzes the success of fashion model, fashion designer, and reality television star Kimora Lee Simmons.
Washington's discussion on racial branding and Blasian legibility in the celebrity industrial complex is a compelling look at how Blasian identity can be negotiated by the celebrity herself both for economic success (branding) and personal resolve of a marginalized identity.
