Zhao Lusi is facing backlash after accusing her company of physical and mental abuse amid a sudden health decline.
The controversy began in December 2024 when a bombshell post revealed the actress’s company allegedly abused her. Fans spotted Zhao Lusi looking weak and being pushed in a wheelchair.
Recently, Zhao Lusi spoke out during a live broadcast, shocking fans with a revelation about how her company handled her illness.
Zhao Lusi:
“I was sick, and instead of taking me to see a doctor, you locked me in a hotel and had an exorcist come to perform an exorcism on me? You actually called a master to exorcise me, saying someone put a curse on me.”
The claims sparked anger and concern online, with many worried about Zhao’s wellbeing and the consequences of speaking out.
Twitter user @flowerfrost replied:
“i’m really worried about her. the fact that she’s speaking out probably means they’ve already blacklisted her or are planning to anyway (we know how this industry works) still, her bravery, honesty, and connection with fans is powerful. she’s fighting back”_
Others highlighted the severity of the abuse and disbelief that a top actress would be treated this way.
Twitter user @feverfudge said:
“They literally could have k!lled her. If she was having severe psychosomatic responses due to stress/other factors and they chose an exorcist over an actual doctor…sh!t. The aphasia and partial paralysis were already bad but it could’ve been much worse. Just evil. Evil.”
Netizens called for greater mental health awareness and condemned the company’s negligent treatment.
Twitter user @Drama4Love added:
“This is why we need to raise more mental health awareness. It’s crazy how so many still don’t take this seriously & companies like KU who lack braincells can’t even take care of their biggest artist & treats her like she is possessed or something? Atrocious to say the least.”
Zhao Lusi debuted in 2017 and is one of China’s most popular actresses. The controversy is ongoing as fans and media monitor the situation closely.
