Lu Han’s Troubled Livestream Shakes Couple’s Reputation
Pop star Lu Han’s recent livestream has sparked controversy, with many fans expressing concern over his behavior and a subsequent "guilty by association" backlash against his girlfriend, actress Guan Xiaotong.
Lu Han’s online appearance, which began early in the morning and concluded just as the sun rose, was riddled with inconsistencies. Fans observed incoherent speech, erratic gestures, and troubling words and actions. One specific moment, in which Lu Han made an obscene gesture, has become a focal point of the controversy, drawing widespread criticism. This outburst, combined with other concerning behaviors during the livestream, has fueled speculations about Lu Han’s emotional state.
“He seemed drunk and emotionally unstable, almost like he was having a breakdown,” shared one stunned viewer on social media.
Adding fuel to the fire, a female voice, reportedly Guan Xiaotong’s, briefly appeared in the livestream, uttering the cryptic phrase "Here here." This seemingly innocuous moment added another layer of complexity to the already controversial situation, generating a whirlwind of speculation and debate among fans.
While Lu Han’s behavior is solely responsible for the immediate backlash, the incident has unfortunately cast a shadow on Guan Xiaotong’s image as well.
Several fans have taken to social media to express their disappointment and even anger. They are increasingly concerned about Guan Xiaotong’s association with Lu Han and fear that his controversies will harm her carefully cultivated image.
“It’s unfair to Guan Xiaotong. She’s a talented actress with a bright future, and Lu Han’s behavior is dragging her down," commented one concerned fan.
The incident has further amplified past controversies involving Guan Xiaotong. Fans have resurfaceed past incidents, including an episode on the popular show "Happy Camp" where Guan Xiaotong’s boisterous playfulness and strong personality sparked debate.
Adding further complexities, fans have pointed to anecdotal similarities between Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong’s personalities and habits, fueling the perception of them as a troubled couple. This perception has led some fans to accuse them of being “a bad influence” on each other.
Guan Xiaotong is currently receiving praise for her performance in the drama series "Alley People." However, the timing of these controversies threatens to overshadow her accomplishments. A recent incident in which Lu Han deleted a supportive social media post about Guan Xiaotong’s show, only to have it resurface later, further solidified the perception of a tumultuous relationship.
The incident underscores the inherent vulnerability of celebrity relationships in the spotlight. While professional achievement and personal lives can coexist, one partner’s actions often resonate with the other, potentially impacting their careers and public perception.
As for Lu Han, he faces a challenging road ahead.
Rebuilding his public image will require acknowledging his mistakes, demonstrating sincere remorse, and actively working towards healthier habits.
Only time will tell how this controversy will ultimately impact the beloved celebrity couple.
