- Reflections on Marriage, Stunts, and Dim Sum (with Michelle Yeoh)
GP is joined today by actress Michelle Yeoh. They talked about Yeoh's beginnings as a ballet dancer in England, which unexpectedly led to her career in acting, and how she landed her first commercial with Jackie Chan. They talked about responsibility in family and why Yeoh decided early on in her career to step away from acting to prioritize her first marriage and how she feels about that decision now. Other highlights: how the pair felt winning their respective Oscar awards at very different stages in their lives, maintaining friendships with exes, what it was like for Yeoh to work with GP’s husband on The Brothers Sun, and what they order at dim sum.

It’s so nice to see Michele shine at this age, her wisdom, knowledge and attitude towards life all paved the way to becoming a successful actress
''Because he so needed sons to carry on his legacy and all'' Did she really say that?
Loved the interview, she has such a calm grace talking about difficult things like not being able having kids.. we need to talk more about it because it’s hard and women should have support when it happens
''Because he so needed sons to carry on his legacy and all'' Did she really say that?
@@ceterisparibus8966
Yes she did say that because in the Chinese culture, especially rich family that owns businesses like her ex husband, it is a desired thing to have sons to carry on the family name. In Michelle case, she wasn't able to conceive at all. That explains the separation.
Michelle speaks with much honesty, a humble person and with no airs. God bless her n Jean, her family n friends. Including fans.
As a Malaysian, I’m very proud of our fellow Malaysian export- Michelle Yeoh 🇲🇾
What a sweet and charming conversation. Michelle Yeoh is charming, talented, and her outlook on life is really awesome. She's the definition of "citizen of the world!
''Because he so needed sons to carry on his legacy and all'' Did she really say that?
@@ceterisparibus8966yes, she did say that. That was a comment indicated that HE wanted that and that’s why she step down. Understand that’s a cultural thing. Stop hating.
@@ceterisparibus8966 that's a virtuous and the most natural thing to do for a human being, in case you didn't know. It's what drives the mankind
This guest is authentic and very comfortable with herself, to be able to talk about and share things in a very honest and matter-of-fact way .. thank you Gwyneth for the interview. It's the first interview I saw with Gwyneth and I like how she doesn't interrupt the guests and lets them talk.
Michelle as Shu Lien in Crouching Tiger… the quiet grace combined with steely cool she radiates from start to finish in that movie is the one of the most mesmerising performances I have ever seen. I never tire of watching it. It is perfection.
Agreed 💯
Our queen! Love her self awareness, authenticity, and grace.
@goop and Gwyneth, thank you for having Michelle on! So great to hear from diverse voices, gain new/different insights, relate to someone… and now just from the description alone, I’m hungry for dim sum.
''Because he so needed sons to carry on his legacy and all'' Did she really say that?

Yes, G - please shoot video of every goop podcast interview - the essence of the interview comes across more vividly!
This was excellent. Gwyneth, you look beautiful
Michelle is a legend!
I like that, I’m not a multi tasker. Very helpful. So many people feel nowadays that they have to be. We don’t. We can be whatever we wish.
This woman never fail to impress me. She has inspired me since I was young. Thanks Gwyneth for inviting her. ❤😊
Michelle Yeoh is intelligent and amazing. We need to see her more centre stage in media than some of the horrible reality stars
Wish we could see the full interview.
Michelle is a global icon. She embodies indomitable power when necessary yet gentle persusion when all else fails. Salutations and Blessings, Lady M. 🙏👸
She kept it real on the kids questions

Love Michelle. "Be honest with yourself."
❤I enjoy this conversation between both of them . This is one of honest and best life experiences of interview we have seen from Michele .
Wow, the duo's i thought i never needed.
love love love two authentic women, Cate Blanchett can never
Michelle Yeoh!! best ever
Love Michelle！Proud of Asian actress❤
It says a lot about her character....you see everyone...celebrities are human....they have and feel love and appreciate perhaps in most cases the things we mere mortals overlook.
Loved her since her days as Michelle Khan
Two queens
Malaysia represent 🇲🇾
The 2 Oscar-Winning Actresses.
Michelle Yeoh is so charming 💗
Michelle Yeoh 😍
Love these two and what makes it more fascinating not only are they Oscar winners but they also both beat cate blanchett for each of their years
Good video of Gwyneth beautiful face.
Love her ❤
Michelle’s so regal & beautiful. Hope to age finely as her ❤
Also couldn’t have kids and we tried for many years. Eventually my ex husband left me in the middle of in vitro. We will never friends after such a betrayal (insisting on destroying 6 frozen embryos) and I will not be anyone’s stepmother. It is as it is. I will not pretend to let it go, when no kindness was shown to me. My experience was much more brutal and that’s why going forward I plan only my freedom.
Miss the magazines! 🥲
Love Gywneth.
Goop do you sell any Jam ? I would love to buy some 🍓🍓🍓
Let's us take a leap of faith into truth how come no one says that❤❤🎉🎉
Michelle❤❤
❤ I'm just being proud I serve poon's family for more than 4 yrs in hk.
I was assigned on Mr Poon's stuff And scheduled
I love both of these incredible women....from Crouching Tiger to Star Trek to Everything Everywhere All at Once, Michelle Yeoh has had one of the most brilliant careers in acting....I had ran into Gwyneth Paltrow at an airport in Nice France in 2001....and she was the nicest most gracious, friendly and unpretentious person, as she briefly spoke to me at the baggage claim....
She looks beautiful wow
After much struggle trying to reach various stars, I was finally able to meet Keanu Reeves at a charity event hosted by the Keanu Reeves Foundation. I feel immensely fulfilled to have had a personal and private moment with him at last.
Oh, wow, I can't believe this. I've been trying to meet him for over two years now. All I've encountered are a lot of individuals impersonating him, and I have nothing to show for it.
how did you manage this ?
❤❤❤
😊
❤
Its so incredibly nice to see these women raise awareness regarding the ongoing GENOCIDE. Props to you girls. Free Palestine. Well done Goop.
🌹🎭🌹
wow.michelle yeoh + gwyneth paltrow

Can’t relate. I really didn’t choose to have my children. I just had such an awful childhood and adolescence...
You don't have to relate, ppl have different paths in life..
girl… I can tell life has been hard on you 😅like chill
@@dinh5532 Obviously. So why do you and those who jumped to like your comment after skipping over mine seem to have a problem with my path?
@@lucindanewcomb8769 Probably because of your negative energy.
@@dinh5532 I didn’t realize I owed anyone positive energy. Aren’t you the one on your high horse about allowing people to have their different life paths and experiences? So narcissistic to expect positive energy from everyone all the time and with language processing disabilities it’s often essential to be able to relate to what’s being communicated in some way. Was just a statement of fact. My childhood and adolescence and young adulthood too in fact were too traumatic abusive and neglectful for me to plan anything.
The "system" comes at a lost on both sides. Everything has a price and no one can have EVERYTHING.
Beautiful women
I LOVE YOU ! I APPRECIATE YOU! ❤️❤️❤️ M. Y .. 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️ CAMBODIA 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭LOVES YOU!!
Эх Gwyneth Paltrow а жить нам осталось чуть более 35
Imagine how hard it is for single moms with less finacial resources.
I respect these two actresses but their winning Oscar over Cate Blanchett's tremendous Elizabeth & TAR is a head-scratcher.
Hasn't Michelle only been married 6 months?
Yes, but they were together 19 years prior to getting married 💒
@@ShellyBomb I thought that might be it. I didn't listen.
@@clarisahernandez5280 No worries ... 🥰
She was married previously in Hong Kong for a few years in the 90s and divorced.
Hurry hurry
Michelle only date super rich guy
sad that she couldn't have kids. Life.
Why are the comments turned off on the Tracey Anderson workout video? Is it becuase u guys know it’s lame 😂😂
I bet she is from Hong Kong.
Buddhism and stepmothers don't go together
I love Michelle Yeon, but Gwyneth Paltrow should be locked up for scamming people .
Gwyneth became such a weirdo with her goop stuff and weird life style..like someone who definitely lost the touch with normality
Two females lying to each other...wow
Get help please
Lost all respect for her when she decided to be the face of balenciaga 😢
I’m sure she’s devastated to lose your respect
Free Palestine 🇵🇸. Stop the genocide
WOW, Granny Paltrow has gotten OLD. Brad Pitt is 60 and he looks like 40. Brad is lucky he stepped got out of this relationship.
She looks great she's 50 and has had babies. She don't look old and she's in good physical shape.
@@JustinKruger336 Go play with yourself, dude. She got that turkey neck all covered up in that turtle neck...keep dreaming.
P.S. Another "Michelle" here ... I feel for her re not having children - wish this would have happened for me too! ❤️🩹
