Twenty-five years later, and Michelle Yeoh still dazzles!
She's still a hottie.
We forgot she was this hot in the 007days!
Well she's good on these movies but letterman is no longer on the late show
(Stephen Colbert is the new guy)
but hes on Netflix
I like Michelle's work on star trek
I see wrinkles mayhe to old people like you she's attractive
@@QuangPham-hm7fm
She is beautiful.
she was 35 for this interview; she looks absolutely incredible.
wut , for real ?
@@sdqsdq6274 yeah
She is like 60 now, and still looks incredible.
wonder what she looked like when she was in her twenties
Asian don’t raisin 😍
If any woman could be Bond, it’s her!
Yeah she's a well trained Martial artist should be good enough for being a Bond.
or you can write your own dumb characters instead of swapping genders like a retired writer.
Bonds a man. She could play a female secret agent though.
she can kick any bond's ass.
She is not Bond, she is the one kicks his ass.
Wow, her confidence, charisma, elegance and sense of humour. Wish I had a 1/10 of hers!
If u stop comparing yourself to her (or anyone), you'll have the confidence at least.

🤮🤮🤮
@@arifsaifee4146 awe
Ypu want to be fake and narcissistic like her
Yeah probably not
Lord have mercy. That is one BEAUTIFUL woman. She still is.
She is very easy on the eyes
Timeless Michelle Yeoh. What a legend.
Can’t agree more !
Indeed
Elegance personified.
Straight up dissing jackie chan, Michelle has massive balls
I think they have that kinda relationship where they can bust each other's massive balls with no problem.
Jackie Chan is a mysoginist and a womaniser who doesn’t take care of his own ‘illegitimate’ children. He’s a shame to Chinese culture
And she's right. Everyone in the Chinese-speaking circle knows that Jackie is exactly how she described.
@@commenter4898 Haha, cheats on his wife, says "I just did what every man would have done"
@@sevengaming2179 Don't do that.. don't change what people say to make them look worse, what he did is despicable but always give the benefit of doubt.. he said "I have made a mistake that many men in the world make.” Chan writes, “I was selfish and didn't know how to empathize with others".. Maybe he learned and changed.. maybe he didn't.. but don't just assume..
Her longevity in the biz is incredible. She is very versatile….as an actress. From action flicks to serious roles, she can do it all!
LOL Michelle is such an icon, she had the guts to call Jackie Chan a chauvinistic pig when it was not popular for actresses to be bold and direct on a late night tv show
Especially in the West where everybody sees Jackie as a sweetheart compared to how he's viewed in Asia
They’re good friends. She was joking
Why do you Asian women always like to disrespect Asian guys in front of White people?
Also because Jackie is very easy going.
She's beautiful and now an Oscar winner!!
Man, she is just amazing. She speaks with such power and elegance. Your eyes are just glued to her.
Who came here after she won the Golden Globe Award?🤭
Me! Lol....hey Yeoh hey Yeoh hey Yeoh hey Yeoh...😂😂😂
same as me.
Sag Award
🤣🤣🤣Will come here again after Oscar
@@ahboonahboon8355 wow you hit it
@@JC-xm9lo Sure,thks.for mention me to come back here
😂😂😂
I feel more and more people will notice Michelle Yeoh is already in our life for quiet a long time through movies ..
She is still herself and she CAME BACK WITH AN OSCAR !!! 💃🏆
Michelle is like fine wine!
Proud to be Malaysian 🇲🇾❤️
Michelle yeoh is just great gal. Educated, cultured and beautiful. She's talented.
A rare breed in North America. Oh wait, she's from Malaysia.
@@randolphpinkle4482 yes, etnic chinese is second largest etnic in Malaysia
Michelle Yeoh is iconic!!! I growing up watching her, she’s such a professional actress, her resilience and hard working is just inspirational to all of us. So glad she made this fantastic movie, and many more to come!
Wow. So young here and still beautiful today.
back here after Michelle's 95th Oscar. So proud of her! 2023 is definitely Michelle's year
So poised, beautiful, and funny in this interview.
Congratulations on her Golden Globe win for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Motion Picture, well deserved 👏👏👏
She's 35 years old here, but looks 20
She looks 35 if based on Asian standard
I'm Asian and I'm telling you she does look 20 at 35 in Asian standard
@@lex8799 I am Asian too. I guess I am used to seeing 35 year old Asian who look like that.
Her secret to looking young is eating right, getting proper hydration, and being Asian.
@@ernaherlina8014 come on she didn't look 35yr here, 25yr maybe but not 35 at all!
Amazing motorcycle stunts she did in her early movies are fantastically fun to watch. An awesome actor as well.
Her love for motorsports is no random.
this is probably my second time watching this but I noticed how she how fearless and confident she was going along wth the jokes about riding on a motorcycle. mind you this was 25 years ago.
Kinda makes you rethink how much you admire Jackie Chan after hearing that, I can believe it too especially in their culture
Thank you for this upload! I never saw this segment. Michelle is of course beautiful and talented, but to see here charm and wit conveyed during a live interview is so awesome. She is so amazing!
Oh my gosh, she is an absolute 10
Yaaas Queen, class act through and through, quick wit with grace. And now... Oscar winner !!!
Girl from Ipoh, Malaysia. We’re so proud of you, Michelle.
She is the best, love her 🥰
She’s so graceful and intelligent and she has to talk to him 👁️👁️
She’s won oscar ❤❤❤
It’s really fascinating that 25 years ago Michelle said someone was a male chauvinistic pig, and she got boos from the audience. it’s amazing the stuff she had to put up with. I’m glad that in no way that would ever happen today. she is one of the strong women who have paved the way for this.
C'mon, it was a joke. That would still get the same reaction today unless it is someone that is clearly a chauvinist. Try saying that about Tom Hanks and see what reactions you'll get.
I think the audience was booing Jackie Chan.
Simp Holaday 😆
@@donice4835 true, and that's very sad
@@swampcryptpretty sure they were booing her. jackie chan was clearly very popular back then, much more so than michelle and women “insulting” men was looked down upon obviously. cmon guys context clues
Im from Malaysia..Proud u mention our Country Michelle..💪💪💪
Michelle Yeoh breaking stereotypes even back then not accepting being the victim, the poor damsel in distress, the submissive Asian, Hollywood never made her a leading woman in any movie, but she finally got the role of a lifetime and hit it out of the park.
here after seeing her win an oscar
God bless, she was an absolute knockout here. She looks amazing!
She's such a gem.
This was 25 years ago.... Gorgeous and gracious then, gorgeous and gracious now in 2022 and still successful. Total RESPECT for her and an inspiration for Asians growing up outside of Asia who don't see ourselves represented in film and television.
read that again... This was 25 years ago. You grew up seeing her on film.
@@ktoth29 Me so haaawny. Me luuuuve you looong time.
I have no doubts that Michelle can be Bond!
Michelle Yeoh-wow-wow!! 😍❤️
Despite her skinny looks, I am impressed how buffed the arms and shoulders look.
It is this perfect balance of strong yet elegant.
One of the best Asian actresses that has been shining in Hollywood. And also shining in her social life. Respect! 👏👏👏
remember guys, she was already a big action star in Asia (since the 90s) before this Bond movie. I'm not surprised she thought she'd play James Bond because if it was a movie made in Hong Kong she would have been James/Jamie Bond.
Michelle Yeoh has won best actress at the 95th Academy Awards, becoming the first woman of Asian descent to win the award.
when she made the siren sounds LOL
She's always an inspiring figure. Definitely, beautiful and intelligent 🙂 all Malaysians are very much proud of her!👍🫰😍
Wow I forgot how amazing she looked! I remember at the time when Tomorrow Never Dies came out, the press were naming Teri Hatcher as the new Bond girl, but anyone watching the film would only give that title to Michelle Yeoh. Teri was just decoration.
I dunno about being just a role model and ground breaking actress for Asians, she is an inspiration for all women, everywhere.
The stunts, and sheer bravery of her early movies demonstrated a talent/grit that should not be confined to men, she is clever, sensitive, she knows exactly what is going on, she's nobody's fool, and, on top of that she has an on-screen presence that goes beyond simply being mind-numbingly attractive... her dancer training has given her a poise, posture, timing... everything to hold your attention when she's onscreen.
At 60 she's no less of a star, she has more depth, and she brings a realism to roles that comes out of life's experiences.
I saw her in Crouching Tiger... and I didn't know who she was. My bad. I never made the connection between the Bond Girl, and Star Trek Captain/Emperor... every role she he has she commands your attention.
Criminally under used, but when you see her, you want her in every movie, everywhere, all at once...
Michelle Yeoh , supporter of Najib
🤮🤮🤮
How beautifully articulated, John!
I wish there was reunion Cynthia Rothrock and Michelle some day haha
Aw the end was a very nice touch!
@@loveunbound5793 Thank you. I tried to give her (long overdue) justice.
after she won an oscar.. i started to look into other things she has done.. I was pretty impressed by her work on "Supercop" (1992). I can see her in Mission Impossible films.
So cool to see those old interviews. The class, the confidence and the charm this lady oozes ! I've always been in awe of her since my teens but now I'm completely in love (and I'm a woman).
Michelle we Love you..from Malaysia
Singaporean love Michelle Yeoh too!
Well deserved golden globe!! I first saw her in supercop with Jackie Chan, she played in a LOT of movies, that golden globe was a long time coming
What a GODDESS Michelle Yeoh 💖!
Michelle yeoh, Malaysia🇲🇾, Ipoh Perak State
She has ALWAYS been so charming, SMART, graceful, poised.
She is stunning, smart and so talented! Love Michelle Yeoh!
I saw her in the old Jackie Chan's movies when I was little and I already thought this lady was gorgeous! Tough and feminine at the same time!
Her body shape was so amazing.
In a way, she's the female version of Jackie Chan, because of how she learn Kung Fu only when she started as an actress, but if you see her early films, you'll be so impress and thought she learn from a very young age. The only difference is that she's definitely a much better person in real life than Jackie Chan.
facts.
Jackie’s not that nice in person?
@@duhneez2068he’s apparently very misogynistic, Michelle mentions it at 3:05
I mean, Jackie Chan is pretty nice but in the way that an old very conservative grandpa can be nice too. He's just a product of his time.
Gorgeous, stunning, funny, intelligent n charismatic..just a superstar in n out🥰🔥
丹斯里杨紫琼(刚刚出炉热烘烘的好消息,她是影史上首位入围奥斯卡影后提名的华人女星)真是马来西亚的光荣 👏👏👏年轻时的她真的好漂亮,现在有年纪了的她,更是韵味犹存!👍👍 Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh (the good news has just come out, she is the first Chinese actress nominated for an Oscar queen actress in film history) is really a glory for Malaysia 👏👏👏 She was really beautiful when she was young, but now she is older , and the charm still exists! 👍👍
Oscar, finally!!
The best Miss Malaysia……ever……no other Miss Malaysia is more intelligent, more poised, more charming.
What a stunner she is BEAUTIFUL
Michelle Yeoh is so gorgeous when she was younger … still elegant at her current age too .
Her expression when he said "and your rotating vertebrae" was the same as mine. Dude, have you ever said a joke that was funny?
Hello Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh
I'm a Malaysian too ❤️🇲🇾😊
She is so talented and grateful.
she was stunning then, and is still stunning now.
I had THEEE biggest crush on her when I was in school..
Michelle now is absolutely stunning. But my god back then she was unrealistically gorgeous.
She is Ms Malaysia in 1983.
Man, she's utterly charming; still a knock out!
Michelle Yeoh is the best Bond girl ever. She was Bond's equal. She even did most of her own stunts!
Maybe even a bit over then, since Brosnan used a double 😉
she's always been the queen
She’s gorgeous and she aged like a fine wine indeed.
Watching this in 2023! She is absolutely gorgeous like angel!
太美麗了!楊紫瓊❤️
Lotsof ups and downs for her career life, that makes her a legend.
Sharp, smart, gorgeous.
I loved her.
She's stunning!
She is stunning!!!! ❤❤❤
You are such a inspiring actress Michelle
The most successful showbiz personality out of Malaysia. Tall, beautiful, artful, sassy, zesty and speaks excellent English. Belongs to the rarified club of ex Bond girls. Simply iconic
Tall, eh? Did you see her standing next to JLC? Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahaha. Tall.
Why haven't i seen her in things like this since like idk forever!! This lady been putting out bangers for years.
This woman is just so damn gorgeous!
She is FIIIIIIIIIIIINE!
Michelle... she's a real woman. Strong and fearless yet feminine and fragile.
I guess this is coming back into rotation on the algorithm because of “Everything everywhere all at once”. Caught it sometime ago - what an amazing masterpiece of a movie! Please watch it in the theatres!
Been remember watching this interview! Also, I did remember watching her role on Jackie Chan Police Story 3 and her 007 Bond movie!
Tomorrow never dies ⭐️⭐️7 Michelle Yeoh 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
she so beautiful back then. no easy way to be a 007 girl if you don't have it.
Ana De Armas was distant 2nd in kick ass 007 action girl though her screen time is short deng it😂🤣😄😆
What an insanely gorgeous woman OMG
She is a legend❤❤❤
Slim, beautiful, smart, talented, and rich! What a stunning lady! Michelle and Gong Li are two of my favorites.

Michelle Yeoh could cure a man's blindness in this appearance on Letterman. WOW, what a beauty!!! 😍
She is the most talented female action star so far on the earth, she should had a chance as lead character in western movies.
