She’s also nominated for a best actress Academy Award and says her mother has given her advice — as only a mother can — when it comes to prepping for the big night.
“She was like, ‘And don’t do this’ and ‘Don’t do that’ and ‘You should keep your hair’ and...” the actor elaborated on her mom's advice. “‘You can tell them that you changed your mind,’” Yeoh said, recalling her mother's hilarious response. “‘When you wear pants you look short.’”“And sometimes I have to remind . I said, ‘Mom, do you know how old I am?’” she said. “You know, when I go home, she’ll say, ‘Your hair is so long. You look a little too tan. You’re this. You’re that.’ I’m like, ‘OK, nice to see you too, Mom.’”
