Recently, photos of 58-year-old Gong Li and her French husband Michel attending a French state banquet attracted the attention of many netizens.
What netizens are most concerned about is the status of Gong Li and her husband. One is nearly 60 years old and the other is in his 70s. However, the status and temperament of both couples are very young and energetic.
Gong Li still appeared in the photo with light makeup. Her dress was simple but very high-end. Especially her casual behavior of hanging a silk scarf on her bag was praised as making her feel relaxed.
Behind the praise of Gong Li, many netizens also mentioned another thing, and that is Gong Li's "nationality."
As an internationally renowned star, Gong Li rarely films anymore, and the biggest focus on her has become her love life and nationality.
Under the comments related to Gong Li, some netizens started different discussions. Some netizens insisted on the issue that Gong Li is not a Chinese nationality. They felt that there was no need for domestic netizens to pursue her too much, and they felt that she was not worthy of domestic netizens. Call her "Gong Huang".
However, some netizens feel that nationality is not important as long as you have a "patriotic" heart, and some netizens also believe that Gong Li, as an international superstar, can contribute to Sino-French cultural exchanges.
As an actress, Gong Li's acting achievements are beyond doubt. In her later years, "nationality" became her biggest controversy.
One and two marriages to foreigners, but she has yet to have children.
In 1996, Gong Li, who separated from Zhang Yimou, was introduced to Singaporean wealthy businessman Huang Hexiang. Huang Hexiang is a kind and gentle businessman. After marriage, Gong Li also became a Singaporean citizen with her husband. She He is still a Singaporean citizen.
It is said that after Gong Li and Huang Hexiang got married, although Huang Hexiang already had a daughter with his ex-wife, he still hoped that Gong Li could have a child with him. Unfortunately, due to Gong Li's busy work and other reasons, the two did not have a child until they divorced in 2009.
In 2019, Gong Li married French artist Michel for the second time. She was already 54 years old at that time, and it was unlikely that she would become a mother again. Now that she is 58 years old, it seems that the chance of becoming a mother in this life is really slim. .
Although she has not given birth to any children, Gong Li revealed in her early years that she had adopted a "deaf-mute" son Gao Xin. However, because Gong Li did not want her celebrity status to affect her children, she rarely disclosed news about her adopted son.
When Gong Li was once asked in an interview whether women must get married and have children, she answered not necessarily. Women do not have to get married. It is good to have a partner, but marriage is actually just a piece of paper. The most important thing is two people. Feelings.
It can be seen that Gong Li is a person who has her own opinions on relationships and is relatively casual.
2. Becoming a Singaporean citizen is a personal choice, but she is very patriotic.
Gong Li has been living in France since she married her French husband Michel. As her "nationality" becomes more and more controversial.
Gong Li became a Singaporean national after marrying her ex-husband Huang Hexiang. She is still a Singaporean national today.
Huang Hexiang once explained that Gong Li is a very patriotic person, and her relatives are also in China. The reason why she married into Singaporean nationality at that time was not only because of marriage, but also to facilitate her work abroad and serve the world. Movies on the run.
In an early interview, Gong Li also answered with a clear conscience. She did not need to explain why she became a Singaporean citizen. It was just her personal choice.
However, as Huang Hexiang said, Gong Li herself has never forgotten where her roots are on international occasions. She claimed that she calls herself "Chinese actor Gong Li" on international occasions.
Last year, Gong Li and his wife visited China with the French President. At the dinner, Gong Li also said in front of international friends that I am Chinese, so I speak Chinese.
I believe many people still remember that at the 2018 Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, Gong Li refused to go on stage to present awards, made a bad face on stage, and then permanently quit the Golden Horse Awards.
This series of actions is enough to prove that no matter where her nationality is, it will not change Gong Li's "original heart."
In fact, like Gong Li, there are many celebrities who are controversial because of their "nationality." For example, the biggest regret of 61-year-old Jet Li is that he quit his Chinese citizenship.
He also claimed that he had become a foreign national in order to facilitate working abroad. Over the years, he has not given up on charity work in China and has also established the "One Foundation".
As some netizens said, the "heart" of these stars may be more important than their nationality.
