On August 23rd, Wang Wan, the internet celebrity who was previously rumored to be involved in a prostitution scandal with male actor Li Moumou, released a video statement denying any participation in illicit activities and shared the outcomes of her legal battles against various accounts that spread these rumors. She announced that out of seven accounts she had sued for defamation, four have been ruled in her favor, one has publicly apologized and compensated her, and one was found to be a fraudulent account. Wang Wan emphasized that there was never a romantic relationship between her and Li Moumou nor any form of transactional interaction; she has always conducted herself within the bounds of the law, earning her income through legitimate means without ever resorting to illegal activities for financial gain or professional advancement.
Wang Wan recounted how, due to a lack of public relations experience and the untimely occurrence of these events during a holiday period, she missed the optimal window to defend herself. This situation was further complicated by the emergence of a fake social media account that spread rumors about her alleged involvement with over twenty celebrities, exacerbating the spread of misinformation. Despite these challenges, she remained steadfast in her commitment to clear her name and sought legal recourse to address the defamation.
In her statement, Wang Wan also made a plea to the public to approach such allegations with a rational mindset, urging everyone to refrain from spreading or believing in unverified information. Her experiences serve as a reminder of the importance of responsible online behavior and the potential harm that can result from baseless accusations.
