HoYeon Jung, Blackpink, Olivia Rodrigo, Bowen Yang, Mindy Kaling, Simu Liu and more are among those honored on Gold House’s 2022 most impactful Asians A100 list.
The A100 List honors trailblazers who are at the forefront of what the organization calls the “new gold age.” The honorees are selected across industry categories, and for the first time ever, Gold House will celebrate these honorees in-person and announce several new initiatives at the inaugural Gold Gala on May 21 in downtown Los Angeles.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson said in a statement, “Our differences are our greatest strengths, and recognizing representation in entertainment and amplifying the voices and contributions of our AAPI community is of the highest importance. I could not be more proud of my Black and Samoan heritage, and one of my greatest passions in life is enriching my daughters’ lives with our people’s history so they also understand the importance of our great ancestry and its meaning.
Theresa Kang-Lowe, “Pachinko” executive producer and founder/CEO of Blue Marble Pictures and Blue Marble Management, shared a statement within response to being named. “It’s a great honor to see our names on this list alongside so many visionaries in the Asian and AAPI community, each of whom are collectively shifting the culture at large forward through their extraordinary work.
“Saturday Night Live’s” Bowen Yang said, “Year after year, I’m awestruck by the collective accomplishments of APIs in different industries. It’s a tremendous honor for Gold House to recognize me as a small part of that.” The list also honors the careers of three legends — Dwayne Johnson, Mindy Kaling and Michelle Yeoh — who have been stewards and champions of representation across the wide API diaspora.A1: Aftab Pureval Chantale Y.
