A few days ago, Michelle Yeoh posted a video call recording between her and Cate Blanchett in the circle of friends, in which Kate showed off her hammer from the set during the filming of "Thor 3", which provoked Michelle Yeoh's spoiled "criticism".
Even if some American media exposed that the two were dating, according to their friends, even if it was a busy awards season recently, it did not affect the frequency of the two making porridge on the phone.
It is not clear whether love took off or not, but in their careers, the two took off synchronously anyway and met at the peak.
Because at the just-concluded Golden Globe Awards, Kate the Great Demon and Michelle Yeoh won the film queen laurels in the drama category and the music comedy category respectively. At the same time, Michelle Yeoh also became the second Chinese actress to win the award after Awkwafina.

Michelle Yeoh "Instantaneous Universe"
In her acceptance speech, Michelle Yeoh mentioned the difficulties of surviving and working hard as a Chinese in Hollywood in her decades-long career, but fortunately, at the age of 60, she finally came to the highest point of Hollywood with a high attitude.

"This award goes to the shoulders of every giant I have ever stepped on, to all the pioneers who look like me, and to all those who will embark on the journey of the future with me."
The record of the Great Devil King is not necessary, equaling Meryl Streep, Ingrid Bergman, and Jane Fonda to become one of the actresses who have won Best Actress in a drama film the most times.
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that excellent people cherish each other.
In a previous interview, Kate told Michelle Yeoh: "Actually, we met in Hong Kong. I already felt your presence before I saw you. ”
Michelle Yeoh replied: "I've been in love with you since your first movie. I long for your acting career, and honestly even a little jealous of you. ”
Then they looked at each other and smiled.
People's definition of beauty always changes with the times, and some aesthetics may even be very different.
But dashing beauties tend to be more infectious and are not trapped by time, such as Michelle Yeoh and Kate the Great Devil.
They are a complex aesthetic that is both offensive and feminine. This kind of "attack" comes from various factors such as its own appearance and experience, and is naturally integrated into personal temperament, and there is no need to imitate some surface characteristics to attack the character.
Michelle Yeoh graduated from the Royal Academy of Dance and began studying ballet at the age of four, and also won the Miss Malaysia pageant.
With such outstanding appearance conditions, it stands to reason that the star path should be smooth, but she doesn't love red clothes and arms.
Her first play is called "The Owl and the Dumbo", which is an action comedy with a lot of fight scenes, but there she can only play a weak teacher who shouts "save me, save me".
But this did not meet her expectations for herself, so in 1985 she transformed into a star by starring in the "Royal Senior Sister" series of movies.
In order to act well in the first real action movie, Michelle Yeoh specially went to the Hong family class to practice martial arts for half a year, practicing every day, playing sandbags, kicking... In an interview years later, she said, "Shouting for help once was enough, and I didn't want to ask people to come to my rescue all day." ”
"Royal Senior Sister"
Later, she opened the Hollywood market with "007: Tomorrow's Empire". The Bond girl she presents is no longer Bond's vase foil, but a brave and resourceful partner who joins forces with Bond to crush Carver's conspiracy.
In this way, she broke the prejudice and created a new international image of Chinese women.
Michelle Yeoh is not a beauty in the traditional sense, but she is better than her clean face line.
Compared with when she was young, she has matured a lot more in terms of acting skills and appearance at this time, her cheekbones and forehead have become heavier, and she looks a somewhat masculine type of appearance from some angles, which is a rather skeletal power beauty.

Therefore, watching her play a beating woman always feels particularly energetic, her hair is simply tied up with a hairpin, and she wears coarse cloth, which has a natural simplicity and righteousness.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"
I remember that in the process of fighting with Yujiaolong in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", there were double knives, spears, whips, axes and other weapons on her hands, and every move and style was windy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is proficient in eighteen martial arts.
"Sword Rain"
Michelle Yeoh is not a great flower rack to hang Weiya, what she now gets is all real guns and real battles.
When playing "Police Story 3: Super Cop", her deadly actions even scared Jackie Chan back, swallowing back "Women should stay in the kitchen." This sentence quickly changed his words "except Michelle Yeoh".

"The script of women waiting for men to save is outdated, and I can still surprise you when I am 60."
She turns 60 this year, still radiant, her arms are still solid and powerful, holding the Golden Globe Award, pointing at the Oscar, standing on the top of the mountain to usher in her peak.

Whether it's Michelle Yeoh, or Cate Blanchett, including Jennifer Coolidge, who also won a Golden Globe for "White Lotus Resort" this year, they are the kind of women who "the best age is always now".
Like Michelle Yeoh, Jennifer Coolidge became popular in Hollywood at the age of 60 and received public and mainstream attention. "When I was young, I had big ideals and ambitions, but real life messed up my dreams."
In their acceptance speeches, they all mentioned the difficulties along the way, and also thanked the director for his trust and gratitude that they still have a strong belief in the 60-year-old actress.
Although many people do not think that the wrinkles on the face are beautiful, they will try to fill them and inject them to cover up, but they do not know that it is also a component of the expression of the face. Wrinkles mean experience, and they have their own sense of story and unique emotions in their smiles.
So don't worry, if you're wonderful, you have your own arrangements.
