Why Constance Wu Is a Top Actress


In 2006, Constance Wu launched her movie career. She played Jenn in Stephanie Daley. Her second movie was The Architect starring Anthony LaPaglia and Viola Davis. Years later, she would not only make movies but TV history!

Born in Richmond Virginia, the actress started her career in theater and transitioned to the silver screen. Did you know she worked as a waitress and once served Bill Murray? After Crazy Rich Asians and Fresh Off the Boat, it is a safe bet to say she won’t serve tables for a living again.

They say success doesn’t happen overnight. Constance Wu’s career has been a gradual rise. In all fairness, some movies should have been made a decade ago. I believe Constance Wu is a top actress. She is also a beautiful Asian actress.

I don’t see any reason why we can’t compare her to Lucy Liu or Sandra Oh. She paid her dues, and it is time to recognize her value. Constance Wu is one of the best in show business and has a place in Hollywood, but I believe her work is being underestimated.

The Good News

Fans are supporting Constance Wu in more ways than one. First, Constance Wu’s recent 2018 movie Crazy Rich Asians made $238.5 million at the box office. Second, Fresh Off the Boat is renewed for a sixth season. That’s part of the reason why Wu is the leading actress in the 2019 Hustlers movie. The movie is based on a true story. Are you excited to see it?

Her Hustlers costars include Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, Cardi B, and Lili Reinhart. With such a great cast, I expect the acting and soundtrack to be award-winning. There is too much talent in Hustlers for this movie to fly under the radar.

 The film feels authentic and I know fans will enjoy every minute. I think the trailer and promotional materials are high quality. Overall, they’re doing a good job marketing this film. I’m looking forward to seeing it come September 13.

I believe Constance Wu is in a terrific position to make a lot of money or win an Oscar. It is up to her how far she takes it. The ball is in her court.

      I would like to compare Constance Wu to Sofia Vergara and Eva Longoria. The actresses are all similar because they have highly rated TV shows in their past. Fresh Off the Boat made TV history like Modern Family and Desperate Housewives. Still, Wu shouldn’t be wholly defined by the show’s success, neither should Vergara and Longoria. Longoria has had incredible success outside TV. In other words, Constance can hold her own.

Right now, she is a respected actress because she is true to the craft. Did you know she earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) from the State University of New York, Purchase? Constance is a certified thespian who understands what she brings to the table. She has gained the experience and now she has endless opportunity. Give it to her.

How Awkwafina Became a Brand Name

How Awkwafina Became a Brand Name


How do you describe Awkwafina to your parents? She is not a brand of water, but she is a marketable drink. Due to her graphic content, she is an “adult beverage.” Don’t confuse Awkwafina with Aquafina. You’ll get in trouble if you consume her, and you’re under 18.

All jokes aside, Awkwafina appeals to a wide demographic of consumers. She is a Hollywood star, who can bank on her name. Like 50 Cent, the Asian American rapper turns financial institutions into comedy clubs. Maybe, she is laughing at Wells Fargo right now.

Did you know the celebrity was fired for her viral music video called “My Vag?” She went on Late Night with Seth Meyers and described the ordeal. Although she was fired, this video gave her instant credibility.

In a short span of time, Awkwafina became a brand name in the notorious entertainment business. I believe the celebrity will have longevity in the entertainment industry, because she is diversifying her talents. She’s more than just a rapper. She is a multi-talented entertainer.

Additionally, I feel Awkwafina is a pretty good actress as well. I highly recommend watching Ocean’s 8 and Crazy Rich Asians. After giving an amazing performance in Ocean’s 8, she gave an even better one in Crazy Rich Asians. The one-of-a-kind entertainer is refining her skills. She has the potential to be a big blockbuster attraction.

No one on the corner has swagger like this beautiful Asian actress. She reminds me of Lucy Liu. I would like to see her replace Lucy Liu’s character in a remake of Kill Bill.

There are infinite possibilities with Awkwafina. Without a doubt, directors love working with her because she is unique. Awkwafina “started from the bottom, now she’s here.” Who wants to see her work with Drake?

She is becoming a favorite New York City celebrity. Awkwafina became a brand name the new school way. There’s nothing old-fashioned about this funny girl. Also, her sense of humor and humility has taken her a long way. I’m excited every time I read about Awkwafina in the news.

Funny Girl Margaret Cho

BY: GURU JAY
Comedy pushes limits. That’s why Margaret Cho is your pusher woman. She represents her hometown San Francisco beautifully. What a beautiful city and woman. Let’s celebrate Cho because that’s what we do here.
Too many celebrities get chopped up and spit out for no reason. I prefer celebrities like Margaret because she speaks her mind freely. Should we start punishing people based on their life’s perspectives?
The Korean American comedian is very vocal about change and social issues. Some will take what she said and twist it in a knot. That’s wrong. Although there’s a price to fame, it shouldn’t cost everything.
You see Cho can be extreme like Russell Brand. As a standup comedian, her comedy compares with Amy Schumer. And the comedic actress plays great supporting parts too.
Picture Margaret Cho and Ken Jeong in a movie head-to-head. Margaret Cho gets recognized because she developed her talent. Who watched Cho on the View? Her and Whoopi have awesome chemistry. You can’t fake it.

Plus Margaret Cho’s brand is built to last. Can you believe she’s 47? Her face doesn’t look a day over 35. I admire celebrities that extend their time in showbiz.
Hollywood and entertainment are the most superficial businesses. You gotta constantly prove yourself in order to make it. The funny girl has done just that.
Whether through music, on TV, or in movies, Margaret Cho’s name rings your bell. Does she have poise and grace or what? Yet her filthy mouth barks attention. I would love to see her live in person.
Funny Girl is a 1968 musical film starring Barbra Streisand. Funny girl Margaret Cho creates throwback material by paying homage to Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor. She is a true comedian who breaks through glass ceilings.
What is more, we appreciate Margaret Cho for entertaining us and rocking the microphone for all these years.

Celebrating Beautiful Asian Actresses: Lucy Liu, Sandra Oh, and Maggie Q

BY: GURU JAY

Critics consider Lucy Liu to be the best Asian actress. The Charlie’s Angels star proves she belongs in the top actress conversation by demonstrating her incredible talent. In addition, her Kill Bill performances are memorable because you hardly ever see the Asian actress play villainous.
How many times must I mention that I love Lucy for you to believe me? I believe Lucy Liu inspires millions of aspiring actresses regardless of race. Also, the lovely actress has played in numerous mega budget movies.
That’s why we are familiar with her face.

And the world recognizes her star power. In a sense, Lucy Liu is symbolic. She represents noble ideas such as tranquility and patience.

I used to watch Grey’s Anatomy sometimes because of Sandra Oh. I thought, “There goes a woman with beauty and brains.” For a long time, she was the most prominent Asian actress on network TV.
Although, her character is off the air, Sandra Oh stays on our minds. Sandra strived to give fans a realistic perception of Asian women.
Again, I was never a Grey’s Anatomy fanatic. Though, I remember encountering a variety of fanatics in college. Picture 30+ 18- 21 year-olds crowded around a TV set watching a dramatic TV show about doctors. Sandra Oh helped create those super fans.

Maggie Q kicked ass on Nikita. She was unbelievable at times. If Nikita were on ABC, NBC, or cable, then it probably would have lasted 4 more seasons. I wouldn’t have let the gorgeous Maggie Q’s beauty go to waste.
Who is better than Maggie as the slender body lead character? Did you know she started modeling in 1996? Jackie Chan discovered Maggie Q around this time. Remember, “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.”
Finally, at Guru Jay we celebrate Lucy Liu, Sandra Oh, and Maggie Q for their excellence.
