See The Reason for That answer below:
Michelle Yeoh made history on Sunday as she became the first Asian actress to win the Academy Award for Best Actress. Yeoh won the award for her starring role in the psychedelic comedy drama “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” beating out tough competition from Cate Blanchett, Ana de Armas, Andrea Riseborough, and Michelle Williams. In her acceptance speech, Yeoh dedicated the award to her mother and to “all the moms in the world,” acknowledging their pivotal role in shaping the lives of their children.
Yeoh’s win is particularly significant given the history of Asian actors at the Academy Awards. While she is only the second Asian actress to be nominated in her category, after Merle Oberon, who concealed her South Asian identity throughout her screen career, Yeoh is considered the first openly Asian actress to win the award. In her speech, Yeoh acknowledged the significance of her win for all the little boys and girls who look like her and see in her a beacon of hope and possibilities.
Yeoh has enjoyed a successful awards season, having won several other awards, including the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Comedy or Musical. Her performance in “Everything Everywhere” has been widely acclaimed, cementing her status as a breakout star in Hollywood. Yeoh’s career spans decades, countries, and languages, and she has become known as a feminist trailblazer in the entertainment industry, thanks to her portrayal of strong, crime-fighting heroines.
Yeoh credited the decades of activism within the Asian community for making it possible for Asian actors to be prominently featured in movies, moving beyond their traditional role as sidekicks or background characters. Her win is a significant milestone, not just for her personally, but for the Asian community at large.
