MICHELLE YEOH – HER INSANE STUNTWORK

So Michelle Yeoh has won a best actress SAG award and has also been nominated for an Academy Award for her role in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

You may know her from her steely turn as Eleanor Young in Crazy Rich Asians, or from her charismatic portrayals of the elegant older woman in productions such as The Lady and Memoirs of a Geisha. Or her butt-kicking turns in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or Tomorrow Never Dies (if your memory can reach that far back).

She's been in numerous other productions, but what many may not know is that when she first started out in Hong Kong showbiz (after winning the Miss Malaysia pageant in 1983) she was only allowed to be just another huaping or flower vase actress. The term huaping is pejorative, and refers to actresses whose role in a film is primarily decorative, i.e., they sit around and look pretty, but don't really mean much to the narrative, or have much else to do as characters themselves. (OK so there was a movie in 1985 called Yes, Madam where she got to stretch her range as a fightworthy police inspector, but that seems like more an exception.)

Anyway, after her marriage to HK magnate Dickson Poon ended around 1991, Michelle blew the harmful stereotype of the huaping actress totally out of the water when she returned to show business in Jackie Chan's movie Police Story 3: Supercop (she'd taken a hiatus from filmwork during her marriage).

She did her own stunts in that movie (filmed in Malaysia, Michelle's country of birth), and the stuntwork was beyond insane. It wasn't the hand-to-hand combat (although there are fight scenes). Michelle rides a motorcycle during a chase scene, and it completely obliterates the bike ride she shared with Pierce Brosnan in Tomorrow Never Dies. Plus there's a scene of her bouncing off a moving car too.

Not to spoil the surprise (and shock) but there's also a train involved somewhere – just watch the video clip that follows.

Michelle herself says she must have been insane to do all those stunts (and there's no way this would pass OSHA regulations today). Take a look at the following (remember – this was in 1992 and there was no CGI technology involved) and then don't miss the outtakes after (Jackie was really concerned for her).

You may close your mouth now. This lady kicks some serious ass! 👀

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN AND THE DUCHESS OF CAMBRIDGE WILL VISIT KING’S COLLEGE LONDON TO OPEN BUSH HOUSE

Tuesday 19th March 2019

Her Majesty The Queen, accompanied by Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge, will visit King’s College London on Tuesday 19th March 2019 to open Bush House, the latest education and learning facilities on the Strand Campus. Her Majesty is Patron of King’s College London and previously visited in 2012 and 2002.

As the fourth oldest university in England, King’s College London provides teaching and cutting-edge research in the heart of London. King’s has played a major role in many of the advances that shape modern life, such as the discovery of the structure of DNA, and research that led to the development of radio, television, mobile phones and radar.

The Queen and The Duchess will arrive at the central courtyard that connects the five Bush House Buildings, before touring the facilities and meeting a number of supporters of the development. Her Majesty and Her Royal Highness will move up to the eighth floor, visiting one of two Roof Terraces which boast panoramic views of London and to meet those who worked on the conversion of Bush House.

The Royal Party will view a robotics demonstration, including robotic surgery, and a demo showing how sensors made from textiles can measure useful information about the body. The Queen and The Duchess will then visit King’s virtual trading floor, and meet a number of students from the Entrepreneurship Institute, which exists to support entrepreneurial thinking, skills and experiences amongst King’s students, staff and alumni.

The Royal Party will conclude the visit in the development’s new auditorium, where The Queen will unveil a plaque, formally opening Bush House, before signing the Visitor’s Book alongside The Duchess of Cambridge.

King’s College London has over 31,000 students from some 150 countries and acquired the Bush House buildings in 2015 to provide a home for many of their academic departments, as well as further learning and social spaces and enhanced student facilities. These new buildings include lecture theatres, teaching rooms, a 395-seat auditorium, and The Exchange, an open, collaborative space designed for events and exhibitions.

Her Majesty The Queen, Patron, previously visited King’s College London in November 2012 to open the Dickson Poon School of Law and in 2002 to open King’s new Maughan Library. In January 2018 The Duchess of Cambridge visited The Maurice Wohl Clinical Neuroscience Institute at King’s College London’s Denmark Hill Campus.

His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh is a Life Governor of King’s College London and Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal has been a Fellow since 1989
