Early life and education

[edit]

Yeoh was born on 6 August 1962 inIpoh,Perak, Malaysia,[11] to Janet Yeoh and Yeoh Kian-teik. Her father waselected as a Senator of Malaysia from 1959 to 1969 as a member of Perak'sMalaysian Chinese Association,[12][13][14] the Chairman of the PerakBar Association,[when?][12] and the founder of "Sri Maju" in 1975, a majorintercity coach service in Malaysia and Singapore.[12][15] OfHokkien andCantonese ancestry,[16] she grew up speaking English to her father, and could understand someMalaysian Cantonese from her maternal grandmother who lived with them.[17] She learned to speak Cantonese andMandarin fluently in the 1980s and 1990s after starting her career in Hong Kong. Despite that, she never learned to read orwrite Chinese characters, which she has said was her greatest regret.[18]

Yeoh was keen on dance from an early age, beginning ballet at age four. She went to the girls schoolMain Convent Ipoh. At age fifteen, she moved with her parents to England. There, she was enrolled inThe Hammond School, Chester, where she started to train as a ballet dancer.[19][20] However, a spinal injury prevented her from becoming a professional ballet dancer, and she shifted her attention to choreography and other arts.[21] She received aBachelor of Arts degree fromCrewe + Alsager College of Higher Education in 1983.[22]

Career

[edit]

1983–1991: Early career and first retirement

In 1983, twenty-year-old Yeoh won theMiss Malaysia World beauty contest.[23] She was Malaysia's representative at theMiss World 1983pageant in London, where she placed eighteenth.[24] Later that year, she traveled to Australia where she won the 1984Miss Moomba International pageant.[25] Her first acting work was in a television commercial forGuy Laroche watches withJackie Chan.[25] This caught the attention of a fledgling Hong Kong film production company, D&B Films. Although she had a passive understanding of theIpoh Cantonese spoken in her hometown, she could not speak it. During a phone call in Cantonese, she was offered to co-star in a television commercial with a Sing Long, and only realised that was Chan's Cantonese name when she arrived in the studio.[26] She learned to speak Cantonese as she began her career in Hong Kong.[27]

Yeoh began her acting career in action and martial arts films, in which she performed her own stunts.[28] Yeoh's first lead role came in her third film,Yes, Madam (1985).[21][29] Yeoh initially used thepseudonym Michelle Khan, a stage name selected by D&B Films for its potential appeal to international and Western audiences. In 1987, Yeoh married her first husbandDickson Poon, a co-founder of D&B Films, and decided to retire from acting.[30]

Yeoh wanted to perform her own stunts but was prevented because directorRoger Spottiswoode considered it too dangerous. Nevertheless, she performed all of her own fighting scenes.[33][34]

In 1997, Yeoh playedSoong Ai-ling in the award-winningThe Soong Sisters. Yeoh was approached by directorAng Lee to star as Yu Shu Lien in her first Mandarin-language martial arts filmCrouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000).
