Gemma Chan Explains How She's Different From Her 'Crazy Rich Asians' Character Astrid

Gemma Chan is on the cover of #legend‘s May/June 2019 issue, out now.

Here’s what the 36-year-old Crazy Rich Asians star had to say…

On Hong Kong: “I came here in my childhood and I haven’t been back here since then so it’s been a real pleasure to return here with my parents.”

On being a role model: “If I can be someone, just in some way, that young women can look at and feel empowered to do whatever they want to do, that’s enough for me.

On the similarities and differences with her Crazy Rich Asians character Astrid Leong: “I’d say my day to day style as Gemma is much more laid back. I love sneakers, baseball caps, t-shirts, and street wear in general. I’m not always as elegant as the Astrid look but depending on my mood.”

Gemma Chan Clarifies That 'Liked' Tweet About Constance Wu Being 'Mean-Spirited'

Gemma Chan, who worked with Constance Wu on last summer’s smash hit film Crazy Rich Asians, “liked” a tweet from her personal Twitter account that said some unfavorable things about her former co-star.

The tweet (which has now been deleted) read, “Constance Wu’s conduct today comes as no surprise to anyone who has worked with her in recent years. She has a reputation for being rude, petty, mean-spirited, and ungrateful.”

Well, Gemma took to Twitter to clarify that she did not mean to “like” that tweet and it was a total accident.

“Just to clarify – it was an accidental ‘like’. Anyone looking for drama or beef, sorry to disappoint,” Gemma tweeted to her followers.

The “like” came right after Constance was forced to clarify some comments she made amid the renewal of her TV show Fresh Off the Boat.

Olivia Munn & Gemma Chan Get Honored at Apex for Youth's Inspiration Awards Gala 2019!

Olivia Munn and Gemma Chan strike a pose on the red carpet while attending the 2019 Apex for Youth’s Inspiration Awards Gala held at the Cipriani Wall Street on Wednesday (April 17) in New York City.

The 38-year-old actress was honored for her contributions to the Asian-American community, alongside Gemma, 36, and Credit Karma founder Kenneth Lin.

Apex is an organization which aids underserved Asian and immigrant communities in New York City.

“It’s very important that we realize it’s not just checking a box,” Gemma said at the event (via WWD). “And there’s a difference between diversity and representation. True representation, for me, is when you have stories which are being told by and from the viewpoint of the community in question. And it’s more than just skin deep. It’s about authenticity in that sense.”

FYI: Olivia is wearing a Peter Pilotto look with a Laura Basci tank top, Jimmy Choo shoes, Valextra clutch and Jacob & Co. stud earrings. Gemma is wearing a Monse dress and KatKim ear hooks.
