Sandra Oh – Blue Before Grey’s

After Lucy Liu and Grace Park, Sandra Oh is probably the best-known Asian actress on US television, so there sure isn’t anything I can reveal about her here that isn’t already known or hasn’t already been shown. But for those who don’t follow Sandra’s character, Dr. Christina Yang, on the Emmy Award-winning show, Grey’s Anatomy; just last night she said her final farewell to Grey Sloan Memorial after 10 seasons.

Her portrayal of Dr. Yang on the show since its debut in 2005, has earned her a Golden Globe and two Screen Actor’s Guild awards and the above scenes sure aren’t from Grey’s Anatomy. They’re from the 2000 film, Dancing at the Blue Iguana, in which Sandra played Jasmine, a poetry-writing stripper.

It’s sometimes mistakenly said that Lucy Liu played this role in the film, likely because those who say it are confusing Blue Iguana with the 1997 film City of Industry, in which Lucy played stripper Cathi Rose and also had some pole-hugging scenes, such as the one below. By the way, US viewers can still catch Lucy as Joan Watson on Elementary, Thursdays at 10:00PM on CBS.
