entertainment industry, this star-studded sky, is also a fiercely competitive battlefield. Female stars, they are the bright stars in this sky, but when they become mothers, they face the double test of career and family. Having children, for them, not only means the continuation of life, but also the suspension of career.
Imagine that when an actress disappears from the screen, her position will soon be replaced by a new actress. The cruel reality of the entertainment industry makes many actresses choose to come back quickly after giving birth. They are afraid of being forgotten by the audience, and they are even more afraid of losing everything they have worked hard for.
But is the road to comeback really that smooth? What is their real situation? Is it really, as the outside world says, difficult to return to the peak of your career?
Xie Na
When Xie Na stirred up waves with her song "Pineapple and Jackfruit" on the stage of "Sister Lang", many people were speculating: Is this former variety show star preparing to make a comeback? But the subsequent performance was like a roller coaster, which made people see how difficult her career was.
I remember that on New Year’s Eve that year, on the stage of Mango Stage, Xie Na slowly appeared on the stage in a hot air balloon, like a fairy descending to earth. But just as she was singing affectionately, tears suddenly fell from her eyes, and her voice had a crying tone. At that moment, she was no longer the laughing "Sun Goddess" on the stage, but a woman full of stories.
Deep nasolabial folds, fine wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, and a slightly stiff expression...the marks of these years are still looming under the exquisite makeup. Yes, Xie Na is also old. She is no longer the carefree little girl in "Happy Camp".
Looking back at the time, how glorious the Happy Family was, but now only He Jiong is still holding on. Du Haitao, Wu Xin, and Li Weijia have all gone their separate ways. Xie Na, however, faced a reshuffle of her career after returning from childbirth.
She tried to find new opportunities at Dragon TV, but eventually returned to Mango TV. In order to become popular again, she did not hesitate to participate in various variety shows and even appeared on the stage of "Sister Lang". But her lack of strength and the ruthlessness of time made it extremely difficult for her to become famous.
However, even in the trough, Xie Na still did not give up. With her own hard work and persistence, she proved that a middle-aged actress can also have her own spring. Although her face is no longer as youthful and invincible as it once was, her eyes are still full of expectations and hope for the future.
Zhu Dan
When mentioning Zhu Dan, do you first think of her successive mistakes on the hosting stage? Those embarrassing moments seemed to be an indelible label on her body. However, what kind of real life is hidden behind these mistakes?
Zhu Dan was once the mainstay of Zhejiang TV, and her status was comparable to Xie Na's in Hunan TV. "I Love Memorizing Lyrics" in 2004 made her the most popular female host at the time. Her intellectual appearance and gentle and decent hosting style are deeply loved by the audience. At that time, she had a full schedule and had to record at least four programs every week.
However, just when his career reached its peak, Zhu Dan chose to escape. At the height of her popularity, she suffered unprecedented pressure and targeting. Perhaps, for her, the radiance on the stage is not enough to withstand the ups and downs of life.
The decline of his career made Zhu Dan pursue another kind of warmth. She chose to get married and turn her focus to her family. However, this didn't make her life any easier. On the contrary, the saying "one pregnancy lasts three years" was confirmed by her.
After giving birth, Zhu Dan's memory declined significantly. She made frequent mistakes because she could not remember the script. At a certain fashion ceremony, she called several guests by the wrong names one after another, making the scene extremely embarrassing.
Faced with doubts and ridicule from the outside world, Zhu Dan did not choose to fight back. She accepted her mistakes and used humor to diffuse the awkwardness. She once said: "It will be fine after my daughter turns three."However, when her daughter was three years old, she became pregnant with a second child, and her memory became even worse and she even repeatedly talked about the topics she had mentioned on the show.
Today, Zhu Dan rarely appears on stage. Although some people feel sorry for her, maybe For her, an ordinary life is the greatest happiness.
She once left a brilliant figure on the stage and experienced ups and downs in life. Now she chooses to return to her family and enjoy the time with her children. This may be It was the life she wanted most.

All of this made Yang Mi deeply I have experienced the cruelty of the entertainment industry.

Those fans who had been disappointed with Tang Yan or even turned negative have rekindled their hopes. They all lamented that it turns out that Tang Yan has not been "ruined" in recent years, but has been working quietly, waiting for the moment when the flowers bloom.
Looking back on those years , Tang Yan is a famous "Desperate Sanniang" in the entertainment industry. In 2015, her career was at its peak. She shuttled between major production crews all year round. She filmed eight dramas in one year and became a dominant player on the screen.
At that time, she had a lot of commercial endorsements, and she was even more famous on red carpet catwalks.

Faced with doubts and criticism from the outside world, Tang Yan chose to remain silent. She did not explain or defend too much, but chose to let her works speak for herself. She believes that only good works can prove her strength and value. So, after a few years of silence, she made a strong comeback with "Flowers".

Yao Chen
Do you remember the heroine "Guo Furong" who made countless audiences laugh? After "Wulin Gaiden", Yao Chen once became the focus of the screen. But the script of life is more complicated than we think. Just when she was about to spread her wings and fly high, the emotional ties and the call of family forced her to pause.
Time flies by, and in 2012, good scripts are like dew after a long drought, and they have extended olive branches to Yao Chen. She is gearing up to conquer the hearts of the audience again.
However, fate seems to play tricks. The news of pregnancy was like a sudden spring breeze, disrupting her plans again. What's more coincidental is that her agent also ushered in a new life at the same time, which brought Yao Chen's publicity work to a standstill.
Just like that, Yao Chen seemed to have disappeared amid the changes in the entertainment industry. But her heart never stopped longing for the stage. Just when she was ready to go again, the arrival of her second child put her career on hold again.
"How long can a female star last?" This is a cruel reality in the entertainment industry, and it is also the helplessness in every female star's heart. For Yao Chen, the pregnancy issue alone caused her to miss five years of golden time.

Conclusion
To be honest, not everyone can handle the job in the entertainment industry. Look at those actresses who have just been promoted to mothers. Their postpartum appearance is simply jaw-dropping - how do they look like mothers who have just given birth? Some people believe it when they say it’s a girl!
But having said that, behind this is indispensable postpartum care, sports rehabilitation, and the full efforts of the studio team. Of course, money is spent, not to mention time and energy. But even so, the careers of us seemingly glamorous actresses will inevitably suffer a little impact.
But then again, who stipulates that actresses must always strive for a career? They are human beings too and have the right to choose their own lifestyle. Maybe people are thinking right now: "Having a warm little home is more important than anything else."
Besides, who can tell clearly about the vanity fair of the entertainment industry? You are so red today, but no one may care about you tomorrow. Rather than scheming inside, it would be better to step out and enjoy the family happiness of ordinary people.
So, I don’t think we need to judge too much about these actresses who choose to temporarily put down their careers and return to their families. After all, everyone has their own way of living, as long as they feel happy. What do you think?
