Venus Yang Liping Quarrel (The Beginning and End of Venus and Yang Liping's Variety Dislike)

However, at the age of 28, Venus made a shocking decision, that is, to go to surgery to become a woman. Because in "his" heart, there has always been a daughter complex, and "he" felt that the daughter body can show the charm of the dance.

This decision not only made her suffer too much physical pain, but also great mental torture. During the surgery, she almost lost all feeling in her legs and said goodbye to the stage.

This is for the love of dance Venus, like a bolt from the blue, lying in bed Venus can be described as mixed feelings. In order to continue her dance career, she gritted her teeth and completed all the rehabilitation training, and it took 2 years to return to the stage.

After her rebirth, Venus ushered in her new life. She appeared in a number of classic stage plays, including The Drunken Princess, The Red and the Black, and directed the musical The Sound of Music.

Everyone has a life they want to live, and they all want to live their own life, but not many people can be as honest and persistent as Venus, dancing to the fullest, dancing out their own unique steps.

Venus hosted the talk show "The Venus Show", in which she played her honesty and spontaneity to the fullest. She is known as the "Queen of Poisonous Tongues" because of her outspokenness, love and hatred.

Yang Liping's experience is completely different, she is a few years older than Venus, was born in Dali, a Bai family, very young parents divorced, she is the eldest, to take care of three younger siblings. The hard life has not made her lose her love for dance.

Yang Liping, who loves dance, has never received any professional training in dance, but with a spirituality, a love of nature, a different understanding of dance.

A "Spirit of the Sparrow", stunning the world, but also established her position in the dance world, known as the "Peacock Princess".

Yang Liping from nature, to find the true meaning of the art of dance, and she has a super-perfect pursuit of art, has a more than ordinary self-discipline.

Over the years, Yang Liping for a dancer body to maintain a harsh attitude, she has revealed in the program, "weight more than half a pound can not". 30 years she has not eaten staple food, this self-discipline is often people do not even dare to think about things.

This self-discipline and perseverance, making her shine in the dance world. Yang Liping has traveled abroad many times for artistic exchanges, and the film "Sunbird", which she wrote, directed and acted in, also won the Grand Jury Prize at the Montreal International Film Festival ......

"Plum blossom fragrance comes from the bitter cold", and each of their achievements is with their own efforts to Although they have different experiences, they are both brave people who pursue their ideals and realize themselves, and are willing to pay great sacrifices for their ideals.

In addition to the different experiences, there is also a huge difference in their choice of career and family, marriage and love.

Yang Liping has had two marriages. It is worth mentioning the love between her and her second husband Liu Chunqing.

Liu Chunqing was a Taiwanese-American and a successful businessman. The two met at a party, when Yang Liping had a failed marriage, but still had a yearning for love.

Yang Liping put all her energy into dance, children did not enter her planning, Liu Chunqing also by her nature did not rush her. But her in-laws are pushing for a baby in the name of the family, and the conflict is revealed.

Peacock dance is "ethereal and slender", Yang Liping body almost no fat. To conceive a child, she must stop her long-standing eating habits and increase her body fat content, which means that Yang Liping will not be able to dance for a long time, but also to gain weight, which is unacceptable to Yang Liping.

"The fish and the bear's paw can't have it both ways", after a painful ideological struggle, eventually Yang Liping chose to dance, sacrificing love and happiness. Now, at the age of 62, Yang Liping is still all alone, and dance is all she has.

Compared with Yang Liping's unearthly splendor, Venus appears to be very grounded.

When Venus chose to go abroad, she met the love of her life, and now husband, Hans, on an airplane. Hans fell in love with her at first sight and didn't care that she was a "daughter" or that her three adopted children were not related to her, so the family of five lived happily ever after.

Venus is a dancer on the outside; she is a housewife on the inside; she does housework at home; she is a dedicated mother to her children, and in order to let them go to school, she went through a divorce with Hans. Fortunately, there is no such thing as a marriage contract, and their relationship is always the same.

In fact, it's normal to argue on the show, and it doesn't matter if it's high or low, right or wrong. Their ideas are similar, and what they both value is whether the actors really love dance, and whether the dance can move people's hearts.

After The Venus Show went off the air, Venus returned to her job, doing things related to dance.

In addition to being a dance judge, she was busy touring with her own dance team. Venus has always been the brave, confident, and defiant one.

Venus teased that when she was young, she wanted to find a rich man so she could have a space of her own and dance without worry. In order to realize this ideal, she pushed herself to become rich and trained a group of dancers.

The Shanghai Venus Dance Company is a purely private dance organization founded by Venus in 1999, and it's not easy to stick with it for so many years.

Its success is of course inseparable from Venus, and her insistence on dance and quality of work. 20 years, the troupe performs a new work every year, and she takes every movement and expression seriously, and the quality of the work is the hard core of their competition.

Dance, has been a very important part of Venus' life. In her opinion, dance is a piece of her spiritual self-preservation, dancing is talking to herself, at any time, she has never given up the dance, and every year the team performance, she will also personally participate.

In 2019, the 20th anniversary of the founding of the Shanghai Venus Dance Company, Venus danced "Half a Dream" for the last time. From the age of 24 to 53, this work that brought her a lot of honor, now she chooses to put it down and give it to the young people to perform. Maybe she will be reluctant to let go, but not sad.

As Venus herself said: "You can't take what you once had in your life, and tug at it, you have to know how to break away, what you should leave behind, what you should give to someone else, and let yourself be confronted with something new."

Compared to the young Venus, now she has become more introspective, young sharp and exposed, now she has the ability to be calm and relaxed.

People only have a few decades in their lives, and Venus has lived her own wonderful life. Growing up a talented dancer, growing up with the courage to be herself, and returning to life when she needed to settle down, she was herself at every stage.

Nowadays, "Peacock Princess" Yang Liping also from the front of the stage to the backstage, but also have their own dance troupe. In order for the dance troupe to survive, she went around endorsing advertisements, looking for theater groups to shoot, and even sold her house. The result of her perseverance is that she created "Reflections of Yunnan" to amaze the world.

"Reflections of Yunnan" is a traditional and modern dance work. The vast majority of the cast of this work, from the local ethnic minorities in Yunnan, together with more than 60 drums from the folk collection, as well as more than 600 sets of ethnic costumes, which is a walking museum of folk song and dance art.

Yang Liping choreographed and directed the dance drama The Rite of Spring, which toured the world and has been consistently praised.

The Rite of Spring, on top of modern dance, incorporates a large number of Chinese cultural elements, with oriental wisdom and aesthetics, to re-deconstruct this spring sacrifice. The woman is no longer a mere sacrifice, but a kind of redemption, a fearless spirit of sacrifice that conveys the Chinese understanding of life and death.

From "Reflections of Yunnan" to "The Rite of Spring", Yang Liping has been telling the world about Chinese culture and oriental aesthetics through the language of dance.

Venus and Yang Liping, one pushes the national culture to the world, the other introduces the world culture to China, they are both marvelous dance artists. They respect and appreciate each other, but because of different life concepts, they do not become friends.

In the program "The Temptation of Dinner", Jin Xing commented on Yang Liping: "I appreciate and respect Yang Liping's 'artisanal heart' for dance, she is an unsurpassed artist, and the dance simply cannot be more beautiful."

Host Ma Dong also agreed that this relationship between the two is a normal thing in the entertainment industry, even in ordinary people, only that the spotlight has exaggerated their misunderstanding.

It can be said with certainty that the rumors of Venus and Yang Liping's discord will not affect the two dancers' pursuit of art and contribution in the slightest, and that their lives are wonderful, radiant and unique. At any time they have enough courage to meet the challenge again and again, in order to live from myself, always fearless waves.

I hope to see more and better works from them.
