Controversy Unfolds as Chen Lei Shares Candid Insights on Upcoming Projects and Physical Appearance
Chen Lei's Recent Interview Stirs Controversy on Weibo

12 November 2023
In a recent interview, popular Chinese actor Chen Lei made several striking comments that have caused quite a stir on social media platform Weibo. The interview was primarily focused on his upcoming variety show and drama, but it was his remarks about co-star Lu Yu Xiao Xiao that caught the attention of netizens.
Chen Lei, who will be appearing as a guest on an upcoming episode of a popular Chinese TV show, made some interesting revelations during his interview. He identified Lu Yu Xiao Xiao's singing voice in a listening and identifying song game segment, much to the surprise of everyone involved. Chen Lei also described himself as a "six-sided" shape, hinting at his multifaceted personality and skills, which he rated as 101 on a scale from 1 to 100. However, he conceded that he will never have eight packs of abs due to his age, settling instead for six packs.
Chen Lei's self-deprecating humor and candor about his aging process were met with mixed reactions from Weibo netizens. While some appreciated his honesty, others felt that he was too focused on physical appearances, which they believed detracted from his acting skills. One user commented, "The nights are still shallow and too sweet, you all have a taste for Huang Renjun's Weibo video." This remark is likely in reference to the prevalence of beauty-focused content on Chinese social media platforms like Weibo, and the tendency of some celebrities to prioritize their appearance over other aspects of their lives.
