Lucy Liu, who played the femme fatale O-Ren Ishii in Quentin Tarantino’s cult masterpiece ‘Kill Bill,’ discusses her parenting experience.
Lucy Liu, who portrayed O-Ren Ishii in Quentin Tarantino’s cult film ‘Kill Bill,’ said she “didn’t have a plan” and just “pulled the trigger” when she decided to become a single mother.
The actress gave birth to a boy called Rockwell through gestational surrogacy in 2015, and she’s now claimed she did very little study before making the life-changing choice because she was afraid she’d “think” herself out of it, according to reports.
In an interview, Lucy Liu explained: “I didn’t have a plan. I just thought, ‘I want to change the conversation a little bit’. I didn’t mull it over too much. I didn’t do a lot of research, I just pulled the trigger”.
Lucy Liu said, “I can think myself out of something easily. If I think too much I won’t do it. It’s better for me to feel something and just go for it. A lot of people read books about parenting. I didn’t do any of that. I was like, ‘When the child is here, I’m just going to figure it out’.”
The 54-year-old actress then explained why she opted to raise Rockwell in her hometown of New York City, stating that she wanted him to experience more of the world.
Lucy Liu added, “I definitely wanted to raise a kid in New York. People will say, ‘It’s not convenient, you don’t even have a car,’ but this way, they’re going to see all the things. You’re going to show them what’s safe and what’s not, and they’re going to understand that through experience. It’s hard to build common sense when you’re in a car all the time. They’re going to smell the smells.”
