Early on in my career, I was just like, “Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,” to anything that came my way. Now, it’s much more about strategy and longevity, which is something that I think about a lot and is hard to attain, to be completely honest, especially in the social media world, where everything is kind of fast content, fast streaming now. I’ve learned the power of [saying] no.is definitely an homage—like a farewell kiss—to high school, mainly just because I’m so much older.
When we were creating the characters and we were casting, I remember being pretty adamant about wanting to cast a Vietnamese family and wanting also for her to have a classic Vietnamese last name. It depends on the project, but I think that’s just something that I really wanted, because that family relationship is a different one. Her parents are super cool, her parents want her to go out, her parents flip her off, her parents are sassy.
That’s a great question. That actually has come up before—and I really do want to educate myself and read the articles that are out there about it, or the criticism that’s out there about it. So I hope I can answer this in the way you’re truly asking, but my approach to this is really like, I do believe that anyone can love whomever they so choose, and all relationships don’t look the same.
