Wang Yibo’s Fans Denigrate and Harass His War of Faith Costar Wang Yang and His Wife After Nomination for Best Actor at the Magnolia Awards

Why does most of any bad press for C-actor Wang Yibo always start with “his fans”. The latest brouhaha in C-ent is Wang Yibo’s fandom going berserk and publicly denigrating veteran C-actor Wang Yang, who starred in War of Faith earlier this year with Wang Yibo. The nominations came out for the Magnolia Awards hosted by the Shanghai Television Festival and Wang Yang was nominated in the Best Actor category. Wang Yibo was not, which already made his fans upset, but seeing Wang Yang who had less screentime than Wang Yibo in the drama get nominated for Best Actor just set them off. They have been posted horrible comments under his Weibo posts and collecting data that Wang Yang never got a Best Actor nod for any of the dramas he was the lead in but sneaked into a nom here when he wasn’t even the male lead in the drama. They have also gone on Wang Yang’s wife’s Weibo to harass her. Wang Yang deleted all those comments and the fans got even angrier calling him a coward who tries to hide the truth. Industry insiders are saying this behavior from Wang Yibo’s fans not only make him look bad but could get the attention of industry top wigs and may affect consideration of him for future projects and roles as well as other stars who are deciding whether to act with him.
