Who’s up for a destination wedding?! To finish off our Comfort Divas Month, Steffi is joined by Diego to breakdown a movie that means so much to both of us because...Asian. Yep, we’re discussing the romantic-comedy “Crazy Rich Asians” (2018) starring our divas of the week: Michelle Yeoh and Constance Wu in our Two Part Crazy Rich Asians episodes. In today’s episode, part 1, Diego and I share our favorite scenes of the movie including that Mahjong scene, airplane proposal, and of course the iconic wedding sequence that all of us are too poor to ever experience in this lifetime. Diego also shares some stories about growing up in Singapore and how accurate the portrayal of Singapore really was in the movie. Plus, we share the experience of what it was like seeing Crazy Rich Asians for the first time on the big screen and our thoughts on Asian representation in media & our Asian identities. Stay tuned for part 2!  

LOGLINE: This contemporary romantic comedy, based on a global bestseller, follows native New Yorker Rachel Chu to Singapore to meet her boyfriend's family.
