15 Times Constance Wu Was A Goddamn Gift To The World

All hail the bunny queen!

1. When she kept it (and is still keeping it) real as matriarch Jessica Huang on Fresh Off The Boat.

2. And hilariously reflected the reality of those who don't often have the privilege of seeing themselves on screen.

3. When she wore her high school prom dress (literally) to the Creative Emmy's and looked BREATH👏 TAKING👏

But no surprise there! Constance has been slaying since day one.

4. When she dragged Casey Affleck and his Oscar nom.

5. And when she expertly slammed Steve Harvey for making racist "jokes" about Asian men.

6. When she proved that bunnies make a selfie 100x better.

🐰 Seriously. 🐰

7. When she wrote a heartfelt pledge of solidarity to immigrants.

8. When she sang a Sound Of Music song for her mom and proved that she deserves every role in every musical ever.

9. When she combatted the racist myth that POC need saving from white characters.

Can we all at least agree that hero-bias & "but it's really hard to finance" are no longer excuses for racism? TRY

"We have to stop perpetuating the racist myth that only a white man can save the world. It's not based in actual fact. Our heroes don't look like Matt Damon. They look like Malala, Ghandi, Mandela."

10. When she stood up for women’s rights and didn’t shy away from using the F word, y’all.

11. When she discussed the importance of having laws, safe spaces, and support networks that allow the LGBT community to come out safely.

12. When she protested Hollywood’s whitewashing of Ghost In The Shell.

13. And when she spoke about the importance of casting Asians in leading roles.

14. When she stood up for the weirdos of the world.

But then found a minor flaw in her theory.

15. And finally, when Constance showed us that despite being a icon all her own, she's just like us!
