The Actress Behind Yellowstone's Monica

[@TheList]

Which of Kelsey Asbille's roles have you liked the most?

[@sveingrimstad9151]

Yellowstone's Monica. I liked her in Fargo too but too sad the way she ended there.

[@shortgiraffe3792]

The part where Kelsey Chow changed her name to Asbille and pretended to be native for better acting roles. *she's not native she's chinese and white.

[@motorcitylady13]

I just love Kelley's role. She really plays the part so well.

[@sveingrimstad9151]

No one is more beautiful or as beautiful as Kelsey Asbille, in my humble opinion.

[@ArianaMontenegroEc]

Why?

[@shortgiraffe3792]

False, she is very average. Also, she's not native american. Her real name is Kelsey Chow and she's chinese and white.

WOW she is a beauty

[@thomasricksmith8171]

Love the girl ❤

[@Fabiane.Costa.]

💯 Nice!

It’s important to note that the Cherokee nation released a statement saying they have no record of her being Cherokee like she claims.

[@amentamora]

This is 100% unacceptable...NOT COOL TO APPROPRIATE Native American heritage. Kelsey Asbille Chow called the Cherokee Nation LIARS! Boycott Kelsey Asbille Chow

[@JustAnAverageWoman69]

It's also important to note that she never claimed to have tribal membership, just blood. You've never seen an analysis of her DNA, so you know nothing about the blood that is running through her veins.

[@shortgiraffe3792]

@@JustAnAverageWoman69 They researched her ancestry you dolt. They have official records going back generations upon generations. She's not cherokee or any other indian, shes just chinese and white.

[@stephencutler2239]

Indeed. Many people "have blood" but cannot be traced to a nation's rolls. If she has the blood, she should be proud and knowledgeable of her heritage

[@sergios7072]

@@JustAnAverageWoman69 A lot of white Americans claim to have cherokee ancestry. Often it's only a negligible amount in their actual DNA and even non existent from an ancestor in the 1700s. Kelsey Asbille was previously known professionally as Kelsey Chow. When her chinese identity no longer served her she dropped it for this role. She clearly is not proper representation for native women.

[@robinpesek3657]

Good for her. She appears to have a strong work ethic. A strong work ethic will pay off in spades for her.

[@robinjulien5163]

She's the main reason I watch the show

[@jude1515]

She’s very good on the show.

[@susan5301]

Love her in Yellowstone! Was saddened to see she lost the baby in the show.... Gonna be another great season!

[@yodaslovetoy]

*SPOILERS!*

[@cheaserceaser]

Its great to see Native Americans in movies.

[@shortgiraffe3792]

sorry to ruin it for you, the actress' real name is Kelsey Chow and she is chinese and white, not native

[@uluengamotuliki5469]

She is so beautiful Monalisa is where she came from

[@davidpar2]

The actress playing Monica is fine. She’s playing the character exactly as she’s supposed to be played-as the the pain in the neck on the show the viewers want to dunk on because of her whining, complaining, and blaming Kayce for everything

[@lonniewheeler2587]

There are a lot of native American people that are not on the roles do to not being put into the system

[@michaelcharlesthearchangel]

So the Cherokee are saying she isn't Native? God, Costner is really a heel.

[@edyounot55]

Who exactly of her ancestors is Cherokee?
