GBNEWS24DESK//
Malaysian actor, Michelle Yeoh fulfilled her promise of bringing her ‘Best Actress’ Oscar back to her mom in her hometown of Ipoh.
Yeoh, who was born in Ipoh, posted two photos on her Facebook account on Wednesday, one with her mother, Datin Janet Yeoh, clutching the golden statue, and another photo of her paying respects to her father, Datuk Yeoh Kian Teik, next to his grave.
She captioned the post, “Brought Mr O home. Without my parents’ love and trust and support, I wouldn’t be here today. Love you so much.”
Last month, Yeoh, 60, made history when she won the ‘Best Actress’ award at the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles for “Everything Everywhere all at Once”.
“I have to dedicate this (award) to my mum, all the mums in the world because they are really the superheroes, and without them, none of us would be here tonight. I’m taking this home to her. She’s watching right now in Malaysia, KL, with my family and friends. I love you guys. I’m bringing this home to you,” Yeoh had said in her acceptance speech.
