Lucy Liu’s family denied that they are related to Lucy Liu because they are embarassed by her fame. She started as an actress in U.S. TV show Ally MCBeal and also appeared in movies like Charlie’s Angels, Kill Bill and opposite Keira Knightley in Domino.
Because they don’t want to be judged by her high profile status, Lucy Liu’s family denied that she is part of their family.
Liu says, “There’s always sacrifices. My family don’t generally say that they’re related to me – my sister doesn’t say she’s my sister – because they don’t want to be judged or lauded based on who I am.” And Lucy Liu admitted that it took a while for her family to get used to the career that she chose because they never wanted her to be an actress.
Lucy Liu added, “I think my parents are happy about my career now, but originally I was like, ‘Why don’t you support whatever I want to do? If I wanted to sell beef on the street why wouldn’t you want to support me?’ But it’s not about that. Parents never stop being parents, and yet you want them to be your friends at a certain age and that’s just not going to happen.”
