It looks like her remarks have rubbed some of her fellow celebrities the wrong way as well. On Wednesday (Feb 12), Hongkong actor Chapman To posted a long, politically charged rant on his personal Facebook page that touched on democracy, the Hongkong government, COVID-19, and even Christine.

“When the epidemic broke out, I saw old folks crying on the streets because they were unable to buy masks, and people queueing up as early as 4am,” he wrote. “I resent seeing how such a wealthy place has fallen into this [state]. If this isn’t the bullying of ordinary citizens, then what is it?”

“The government exists only to serve the people, and they can’t even protect the people’s basic right to life, then is there a reason for them to exist at all?” he continued, adding, “The novel coronavirus is really the best classroom for democracy.”

The 47-year-old then ended his post with a reference to Christine’s recent hoo-ha: “When housewife Christine Fan scolded [Taiwanese Premier] Su Tseng-chang, many Taiwanese people asked her to go to China, but I don’t think there’s a need for that. She can just come to Hongkong and buy a mask for me to see!”

Chapman’s supposed swipe at Christine soon made headlines, and this is where Hongkong actor Anthony Wong waded into the conversation by sharing a news article on his Facebook along with this comment: “Ah Ze (Chapman's nickname), no need to get angry. What’s the use of saying all this to a person who is long on hair but short on knowledge?”

Ouch. 

However, it appears there may have been a bit of misunderstanding, as Chapman quickly replied to Anthony’s comment, writing; “I wasn’t attacking her, I was attacking totalitarianism!”
