Comedian Chien Thang expresses outrage over suspicion of a leaked "explicit" video.

Recently, social media was abuzz with images and videos of a young woman in compromising situations. What's noteworthy is that the account that posted these images and videos included captions mentioning comedian Chien Thang, such as: "Comedian Chien Thang's niece's explicit video leaked," "Comedian Chien Thang's explicit video with a young woman leaked," etc.

Reportedly, the association between Chien Thang and the young woman whose sensitive video was leaked stems from a photograph. In this photo, the woman involved in the leaked video is standing in the same frame as the comedian. Public opinion has been speculating about their relationship, awaiting a response from comedian Chien Thang.

Following false rumors, comedian Chien Thang recently spoke out, expressing his frustration. Currently, Chien Thang is at home avoiding the Covid-19 pandemic, creating joy for his family members, when he was unexpectedly hit by controversy, disrupting his peace of mind. The comedian affirmed that there is no "explicit" video and he does not know the girl in the video. He emphasized that his family does not have a niece like that. Chien Thang urged netizens to be cautious about any information that affects him and his family.

Regarding the photo of him standing in the same frame as the girl whose sensitive video was leaked, comedian Chien Thang said that he is a public figure who performs everywhere. At each location, when fans ask to take photos with him, he is always happy and enthusiastic, creating a sense of closeness. He has also never intended to create a distance between himself and his audience.

According to Chien Thang, enthusiastically taking photos with fans is not unique to him; many other artists do the same. Therefore, the fact that a girl took a photo with the male artist at an event and posted it on Facebook does not mean she is related to him.

Comedian Chien Thang further shared: “Since last night, many people have called to ask about me, and my family and relatives are also very worried, but if I haven't done anything wrong, there's nothing to worry about. Although I'm a public figure and I acknowledge that I can't avoid controversy, this rumor has shocked me because it not only involves me but also affects my relatives. As you know, people in the city tend to think more simply, but in the countryside, it's truly terrifying.”

Comedian Chien Thang took this opportunity to send a message to his audience: “These days, there’s too much misinformation circulating on social media. It’s not just me who’s been the subject of rumors; even the Covid-19 pandemic has been exploited by some malicious individuals seeking views and creating rumors to cause public panic. The consequence is that those spreading fake news are punished. Therefore, let’s be very cautious about all information online. Let’s trust only authentic and official sources.”
