Michelle, known for her role in the Asian proverb, "Tea and Rice", is a commonly used name for Asian girls. In the proverb, Michelle is a 16 yr old girl who denies a suitor sex, even after he offers her Tea and Rice. Most Asian women would do anything for Tea and Rice, and her ability to deny her urges and accept a higher moral calling has enticed and enthralled Asian mothers. To quote one Asian mother, also named Michelle, "I want my daughter to represent our family values, especially our creed, "In the face of temptation, in the face of diversity, in the face of Tea and Rice, we will not succumb to lower desires, but instead look to Confuscious' words of wisdom." Famous Asian Michelles include: Michelle Kwan, Michelle Wie, Michelle Yi (porn star and reality TV personality) and actress Michelle Liu (you may know her as her stage name "Lucy", which she was forced to undertake in order to preserve her family's honor on stage).
