In 2023, Yeoh received his first Golden Globe. She won Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy. Yeoh, who has been acting since the 1980s, is best known for her roles in “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,” “Memoirs of a Geisha” and “Crazy Rich Asians.” Yeoh leads the cast of 2022’s “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” playing Chinese immigrant and laundromat owner Evelyn Quan Wang. Along with the sci-fi film’s eclectic plot, her performance led her to score the Female Actor in a Leading Role award at the 2023 SAG Awards.
The annual Oscars celebrates the film, the cinematography and the actors who brought the characters to life. Jimmy Kimmel is hosting the show this year. Performances have included Rihanna and Lady Gaga, and presenters have included Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, Janelle Monáe and others. For the 95th annual ceremony, the red carpet was changed to a champagne color due to an aesthetic choice to enhance photography during the arrivals. The champagne carpet is the first to turn red since the 33rd Oscars in 1961.
