华人在美国悲惨生活
This week, Sharon Osbourne revealed her long-ago fling with Jay Leno, Aisha
Tyler opened up about her infertility struggle and Sara Gilbert said she
realized she was gay while dating her Roseanne costar Johnny Galecki.
On Wednesday's show, Julie Chen, 43, said that racist remarks from a former
news director led her to undergo plastic surgery to make her eyes look
bigger.
"When I was 25, I was working as a local news reporter in Dayton, Ohio. I
asked my news director if I could fill in [for vacationing reporters over
the holidays]," Chen, 43, revealed on the show. "He said, 'You will never be
on this anchor desk, because you're Chinese.' "

Chen's boss went on to say, "Because of your Asian eyes, I've noticed that
when you're on camera, you look disinterested and bored."
His remarks shocked Chen and caused her to begin meeting with agents for
career advice.
"This one big-time agent basically told me the same thing," Chen recalled. "
He said, 'I cannot represent you unless you get plastic surgery to make your
eyes look bigger.' "
Worried her appearance might stall her career, Chen discussed the surgery
with her parents. After garnering their support, she opted to go under the
knife.
Headshots of Chen, taken before and after her surgery, show how the
procedure changed her appearance.
"My eyes are bigger, I look more alert ... more expressive," she said. "
After I had it done, the ball did roll for me. I wondered, did I give in to
the man?"
Chen's co-host, Sheryl Underwood, refuted that question, heartily supporting
her colleague.
"You made a choice that was good for you, and you have represented – I'm
gonna say it – your people ... your race ... women and your colleagues,"
Underwood said. "Don't look back."
Chen said she hasn't.
"I have to live with every decision that I've made. And I'm not going to
look back," she said. "I don't like to live with regrets. No one's more
proud of being Chinese than I am." |
