How many stars over the years have changed their names? Many in the past, especially, have adopted stage names.
I can’t think offhand of too many. John Wayne comes to mind.
The point is, if she’s making this to be bigoted against those with Chinese names, Hollywood has a history of people who have changed their names.

Well, Frances Ethel Gumm (Judy Garland) comes to mind.
So does Norma Jean Mortenson (Marilyn Monroe).
“Wang” is also a slang these days for a male body part.

One of my favorite actors from the early talkies was Ricardo Cortez. Only that wasn't his real name. He was born in the Bronx as Jacob Krantz, but was persuaded to take a Hispanic name to make him sound more "Latin", which was fashionable at the time.

I must be racist since I didn’t know she was Asian. Just thought she was a pretty young actress.

Those rom-coms with Doris Kappelhoff and Roy Scherer are classics!
