MODEL and actress Angelababy became a trending topic after she was seen smoking at a gathering of friends, reported Sin Chew Daily.
She sat cross-legged and without makeup in a 17-second video that has since gone viral on Weibo.
The leaked video was obviously taken by another friend who sat opposite Angelababy.
Some Internet users warned her to be careful when choosing friends, to avoid any “betrayal”.
According to the daily, Angelababy was already smoking when she was a small-time model back in 2008.
Many years ago, she was quoted as saying: “I know smoking is bad and I am determined to kick the habit.”
However, she was still seen puffing either cigarettes or ecigarettes even after becoming a mother.
Some fans have come to her defence, saying Angelababy is only human, and was facing pressure from life and work.
> China Press reported that Hong Kong singer Joey Yung has been dubbed “the best sister ever” over her care for her brother Samuel.
She funded his tertiary education, sending him to Malaysia for a car accessories-related programme.
She also opened a car accessories shop for him to run after he completed his studies.
When Samuel got married, Joey also presented the newlyweds with a dream home, and paid for 20 tables at the wedding dinner held at luxury hotel Rosewood Hong Kong.
She also spends a considerable amount of time with her two-year-old niece, pictures of which she regularly posts on social media.
In one of her latest pictures, the caption read: “I am the very old-fashioned type. I hope I can spend time with my family during every festivity.
“Seeing the kid grow day by day, I just hope she is blessed with good health and pure happiness until old.”
