I thought the kerfluffle over the Magnolia Awards nomination for Best Actor had died down, to which I mean Wang Yibo‘s fandom throwing an absolutely fit and melting down over Wang Yang getting the nomination for their drama War of Faith. This weekend it was reignited when the L’Officiel Hommes China cover and pictorial featuring Wang Yang was released. There is one shot of Wang Yang squatting on the lid of a toilet like he’s “stepping on the toilet” and that upset Wang Yibo fans because the insult moniker for their fandom is toilet. I shit (pun intended) you not. This is such an embarrassing 對號入座 (matching seat number and sitting in the seat) because by getting offended it’s like Wang Yibo’s fandom actually acknowledges the insult lobbed towards them as toilets. Of course the most likely explanation is that the entirety of Wang Yang’s pictorial concept and shoot was framed by the magazine and photographer and that’s all there is to it, no underlying meaning. But if it was an intentional troll then it’s absolutely brilliant lol.

I giggled, this is why c-ent is amazing, the drama outside of the drama is *chef's kiss
LOLOLOL I love it. Well-played, Wang Yang (even though you prob. didn't do this on purpose).
Off-topic, Wang Yang looks amazing.
LoL .. those fans really have too much energy.
The toilet seat ones would make a great toilet paper ad. lol not sure I ever saw a photo shoot like that but it’s pretty artsy.
That's so funny!
If fans didnt take everything so seriously things would be so much fun. I dont like the divide chinese do serious/idol dramas, but watching the behavior of their fans i get why are they called idol actors. I have never seen actors fandom bahave so much like kpop fans like in Cent.
I thought that too last year, but after the whole Han Sohee's saga..Well, her fans could give C-ent a run for their money.
Yes some fans are crazy over there as wel, but chinese stars are overexposed. Korean actors at least like to pretend they are classy and rarely attend variety shows. You also wont get studio photoshoot for every random event they attend.
As they say in English, if the (toilet) shoe fits, put it on!
Likewise if these silly fans want to feel insulted at all an everything, they are free to do so, just don’t blame others for it.
I am liking this Wang Yang guy more and more…
Toilets self identified when they went nuts on him. Thank you for admitting you are indeed toilets.
His post about being busy and filming just made everything even better.
If you value your sanity, don't go to toilet spaces on twitter by the way. What they are saying about this man is so vile that if it's possible it's maybe even worse than the Chinese toilets. Horrible people all together.
I think that most of his fans are like k-pop fans. Well, WYB was once a k-pop idol, so I'm not surprised. But his international fans in X act like trolls. You can never reason with them.
Lol some fans are so immature, i wonder how WYB reacted to his fans? I mean, some kpop groups fans somehow are nasty, but their oppa eonni just defended them bcuz of 'money makers', i wonder what happened in drama land, do fans have the same authority to ruin the relationship between their idols and others?
He doesn't care. When the situation was absolutely crazy and they were threatening Wang Yang's wife too he was forced to say something but it was actually pure rubbish. He didn't even ask them to settle down.
There's a reason all fans in China call his fans toilets. Worst fan group in China and he is ok with it because they have been harassing people for years to his benefit. It's just that it finally really became visible now and couldn't be covered by his agency because magnolia is such a big reward.
There is only 1 former popular artiste(Not Chinese) I associate toilet seat to and it has no relations to Wang Yibo...
His fans are just bored as Wang Yibo gives them little content to talk about. He does not give a shoot about those crazy members...
His fans are bored so they harassed Wang Yang and threaten him and his wife?
What an interesting take. Very toilet like.
I bet if Wang Yibo can filter his fans...those crazy fans that behaves badly will be filtered out by it. They are making him 'toxic' to work with. And this must be annoying him alot.
Edward Lai Kuan-lin has his share of crazy fans and he recently announced a career change and no longer wanting to be a celeb. He values freedom more then being a idol.
@HL
His agency is tightly connected to his biggest fans that organise all of this. So no, he wouldn't.
And in his one statement about this, he didn't even hint they should stop.
Stop making excuses for this guy, it won't work.
@Huh...oh..okay.
Park Yoo Chun of TVXQ? LoL.
Yes..🤣🤣
Oh my god Park Yoo Chun. You have a good memory to guess that.
Did they self name themselves "the toilet"?
First, it's a sh!t moniker to begin with, like as if they're 5 year olds with their heads still full of faeces.
And second, their attitude just demonstrates why they are the toilets, because they are full of *sh!t*.
I love this photo shoot.
I think it is a deliberate and classy play on these toxic "fans".
Another point to Wang Yang.
