“一个女人最大的失败是没一个儿女，所谓活出了自己都是蒙人的。” “生不出孩子就是失败。” 
一石激起千层浪，戚薇、李若彤、陈德容、陈数等女星纷纷发文否定这一看法。 
事件引起热议后，杨丽萍艺术官宣账号晒出一段杨丽萍的采访视频回应，她接受李湘的采访，李湘问到如果有自己的孩子传承下去不会更好吗？杨丽萍说“一只小蚂蚁也是我的孩子，我的舞蹈作品也是我的女儿”。 作为中国最知名的舞蹈家之一，杨丽萍把她的一生都奉献给了舞蹈，她的人生也远不是生育可以定义的—— 
她是中国第一个举办个人舞蹈晚会的舞蹈家，享受国务院“政府特殊津贴”。（给做出突出贡献的专家、学者、技术人员发放政府特殊津贴） 《雀之灵》、《两棵树》、《云南映象》、《月光》......杨丽萍的作品获得过日本大阪国际艺术节最高艺术奖、中华民族20世纪舞蹈经典作品金奖、第二届全国舞蹈比赛创作一等奖、表演第一名等，是中国舞蹈的骄傲。 早在2005年，《纽约时报》就发文称赞杨丽萍为中国的孔雀公主，我们摘选了其中一部分，来看看孔雀公主的故事吧—— 英文来源：《纽约时报》 翻译：胡文明 Ms. Yang is a dancer by nature. She was born about 100 miles northwest of here, in the town of Dali, the eldest of four children. Her parents and grandparents, members of the Bai ethnic minority, were farmers in a nearby village. As was true for everyone in their village, she said, singing and dancing were a part of their lives.杨丽萍是一位天生的舞者。她出生于昆明西北约160公里外的大理小镇。在杨家四子女中，杨丽萍排行老大。她的父母与祖父母均为白族，都是大理周边村落的农民。杨丽萍说，对于村里的每个人而言，唱歌跳舞是他们生活的一部分。 'My grandmother was the best singer in the village,' Ms. Yang said, grabbing a bowl of rice at a restaurant near Kunming's performing arts center. 'I clearly remember, when I was 6 years old, waking up and hearing my grandmother's voice. My grandfather had died and she sang all day long—all the details of their life together. This was our life. My family loved to sing and dance.'“我奶奶是我们村子里唱歌唱得最好的一个。”杨丽萍在昆明艺术中心附近的餐馆端着一碗米饭说道，“我很清楚地记得，我6岁的时候，每天一起床就能听到奶奶的歌声。那时候我爷爷已过世，她整天都唱歌，歌唱他们生活的各种琐碎。唱歌跳舞就是我们的生活，我们一家都喜欢唱歌跳舞。”From an early age, Ms. Yang loved to dance, too. At 11, after the family had moved to Xishuangbanna, a region in southern Yunnan, she joined a local dance troupe and fell in love with a popular dance that imitates the movements of the peacock, a totem of the Bai people.杨丽萍自幼便也喜爱舞蹈。在她11岁时，全家搬迁到了云南南部的西双版纳，在那里她加入了当地的歌舞团，并爱上了当时流行的模仿孔雀动作的舞蹈，而孔雀正是白族人民的一种图腾。 
In her early 20's, after she moved to Beijing to dance with the Central Nationalities Song and Dance Ensemble, she made the peacock dance her own, recasting parts of it with deft arm and finger movements. In 1986, that choreography and dance won her first prize in a national competition. Ever since, she has been dubbed the Peacock Princess.在她20岁刚出头的时候，她来到北京加入了中央民族歌舞团。她的孔雀舞自成一家，将原舞的部分动作改成了灵巧的手臂、十指动作。1986年，她的编舞与舞蹈荣获全国比赛一等奖。自此之后，她便被誉为“孔雀公主”。 Experts say Ms. Yang has not only developed a highly personal style, but has popularized Yunnan's folk dances as well.专业人士称杨丽萍不仅树立了自己独特的个人舞蹈风格，而且还让云南的民间舞蹈流行了起来。 'She's in the first rank of dancers here in China,' said Zhang Jianmin, a leading choreographer in Beijing who devised the dance sequences in Zhang Yimou's film 'House of Flying Daggers.' 'She's a folk dancer, but she's also come up with a lot of original movements, particularly with her arms and fingers.'“她是中国一流的舞蹈演员。”北京著名舞蹈编导家、张艺谋导演的电影《十面埋伏》的舞蹈设计张建民说，“她是民间舞蹈家，但她还有很多独创的动作，尤其是手臂和十指。” 
Ms. Yang said she had little formal training and prefers folk dancing to modern dance, which she associates with the expression of anguish and pain. 'My dances are just showing the beautiful side of life,' she said.杨丽萍说，她几乎没有受过正规的舞蹈训练，现代舞和民间舞比起来，她更喜欢民间舞，她觉得现代舞往往是表达痛苦。她表示：“我的舞蹈就是要展示生活中美好的一面。” Indeed, her dances are infused with grace, emphasizing the intricacies of expression possible with the hands and arms. Abruptly, she will freeze in place. Then her body snaps to life. She is by turns robotic, then fluid. Her long, slender arms and fingers—capped by extremely long fingernails that accentuate her moves—are the wings of a bird, the branches of a tree, sparks bursting into a raging fire.事实的确如此，她的舞蹈十分优美，注重用手与臂尽可能做出各种复杂的表达。有时，她会突然僵在原地，然后猛然惊醒。她的动作时而呆板机械，时而流畅优美。她双臂与十指纤长，长长的指甲又让她的每一个动作都分外突出，时而如飞鸟之翼，时而如旁生枝桠，时而又如星星之火燃成熊熊烈火。 'Nature is simply the best teacher,' she said. 'I watch the motions of the peacock, birds, animals, anything that moves. That's how I've taught myself.'“大自然就是最好的老师。”杨丽萍说，“我观察孔雀的动作，包括小鸟在内的各种动物的动作——一切会动的东西我都会注意。我就是这么自学的。”看完杨丽萍的故事，我们就会懂得什么叫真正的“舞者”，而那些认为女性最大的价值就是生儿育女的人，恐怕永远也无法理解生命的意义。 每个人都可以选择自己的生活方式和人生道路，希望每一种选择都能够被尊重和理解，每一个生命都可以活出自己的精彩。而生育，只是人生的选择题，而不是必选题。
