BEIJING – Chinese singer Wang Zepeng has broken his silence on the controversy surrounding Sing! China. The Chinese singing reality show came under the spotlight after an audio clip believed to be from his mentor, the late Hong Kong-American singer Coco Lee,...
“Hence, I completed the second rehearsal alone and was told where to stand or move during the performance,” he wrote.
He was unaware of the messages from Lee, including those about her leg injury and the changes made to the performance. “Hence, I followed the original staging plan and had my back to her during the performance.” Another contestant Zhou Feige, whom Lee had tried to fight for, took to Weibo later on Sunday. He was eliminated even though he had a high score of 88.3 marks.
Wang and Zhou’s disclosures on Weibo added fuel to the fire as more netizens call for a boycott of Sing! China or the cancellation of the show on Zhejiang Television.
