C-netizens raised a ruckus over her appearances as they consider her pro-Taiwan independence, all due to her posting a picture of herself eating pasta during the time period of US Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan two years ago in 2022. The pasta was supposedly showing her support for Nancy Pelosi who is of Italian descent, and Nancy was super pro-Taiwan rights at that time during her visit. Hebe never issued a statement for or against anything and just went about her life and now with this sudden performance cancellation she did post a statement just being sad she won’t be able to and sing for her fans in China.
