Netizens have expressed outrage about the alleged subpar treatment of Chinese national actress Liu Yifei at the 2024 Paris Fashion Week.
The general sentiment was that the actress was not treated as royally as BLACKPINK's Lisa.
Liu Yifei wore black trousers and a vest-tulle for the Louis Vuitton fashion show. Despite her status, she was not afraid of being suspected of being out of fashion, and she received honest praise from the audience.
However, fans were reportedly upset to learn that she was wearing Lisa's old outfit from August this year and was seated far from VIP seats with French First Lady Brigitte Macron, LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault, and other prestigious people.
In contrast, Lisa was seated close to them. This led to a backlash against Louis Vuitton for not treating its two global ambassadors equally. Many found it disrespectful for Liu Yifei to be seated far away while wearing Lisa's old outfit.
The news quickly spread on social networks in China under the hashtag "Liu Yifei and Lisa are wearing the same outfit," garnering more than 45 million views. Fans of each actress began to argue on the network.
Some people questioned why Liu Yifei's status and commercial importance were not taken into account in the Fashion Week procedure, especially given her global recognition and status as one of the highest-paid actresses in China.
Despite the situation, Liu Yifei remained calm. She returned to China, avoided onlookers, and joked about the situation in a conversation with a journalist.
Liu Yifei, also known as "fairy sister," is one of the most prominent actresses in the Chinese entertainment business.
She is known for her appearances in famous shows such as Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils and The Return of the Condor Heroes.
She is currently waiting for a new script and is considered one of the few who can bask in glory without acting solely for self-realization.She is known for her appearances in famous shows such as Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils and The Return of the Condor Heroes.
