Previously, Chinese rap star Kris Wu made an appearance on VladTV to speak about his rising career. Since then, the rapper has seen success as an actor and more. However, recent allegations against him have been threatening to take down his career, as he was accused of sexual abuse.
Reports that surfaced say a 19-year-old fan named Du Meizhu claims the rap star invited her to his house when she was only 17, claiming she was coming there for an audition. Meizhu alleges that Wu gave her alcohol and she blacked out. After blacking out, Wu allegedly had sex with her. In a recent interview that Meizhu gave, she claims eight others—two of the people being minors, have similar allegations against the rapper. The age of consent in China is reportedly 14 years old.
As a result of the allegations, Wu has lost many endorsements from brands like Bvlgari, Porsche, Kiehl’s, and more. Wu has addressed the allegations, saying, “I only met this woman once on Dec. 5, 2020, while with a group of friends… I declare I have never done anything like ‘selecting concubines,’ coercing women into sex, drugging people to rape them, or engaging with underage girls. If there really had been this behavior, I would certainly willingly go to jail.” Stay tuned for more updates.
