It seems like the rumor mill in the entertainment industry never sleeps especially for top Chinese actress Tiffany Tang Yan who will become a mom anytime soon. She was busy filming costume drama The Legend of Xiao Chuo from April to September in which rumors of her being a diva have started circulating.
Rumor has it that she brought 50 staff along with her on the set to make sure that she is being treated well, as her pregnancy just started when she was filming. All of these 50 staff stayed with her in a five-star hotel for her convenience while the rest of the production crew just stayed in a one-star hotel. It was even said that one of the staff was assigned to monitor the air quality to avoid being exposed to pollution. For her safety during pregnancy, many of her horseback riding scenes were said to be shot with just the use of props.
The drama producer Ji Feng dismissed all the rumors and had explanations for each one. He said that Tang Yan only brought 2 staff on the set. While there was indeed an air quality monitor, it was not specifically used for the actress, but for the whole crew instead. The use of props when doing horseback riding scenes was said to be normal as well.
Meanwhile, Tang Yan’s husband Luo Jin who did a livestream session with fans earlier this week for his drama Royal Nirvana, was quick to deny rumors that Tang Yan has already given birth to twins! He said that someone probably manipulated a photo of baby twins and had him look like he posted about it.
He promised that he will definitely tell everyone once they have good news. Having watched this lovely onscreen and off-screen couple together for years, we cannot really blame why people would get too excited over such news. If only the rumor mill in the entertainment industry could produce such good news all the time because having heard all these negative reports, I thought that it was unfair for Tang Yan or any pregnant woman to be criticized for looking after their own safety. All we can do now is to wait for good news of their baby and the release date of her drama!

These people are so jobless to make up nonsense about celebrities. Must be tiring for celebrities to address rumors that keep appearing out of nowhere when they don't do anything as claimed in the rumor.

In past rumours were more normal(?) they dont even try to create believable lies anymore lol 50 people?!
I hope she didnt take it to heart esp while she is expecting a baby! Im glad pd also talked about those rumours and sided with her in this matter.
Marian
I know! She's probably sick of it that she never released any statement about it anymore lol
Marian
That's what I thought so too! So what if she could bring that much. Call it overreacting but she was actually being reasonable for her and her baby tbh.
Marian
Hahaha! It's getting more and more ridiculous lol I hope she shrugged it all off too as it's not worth hers and her baby's time!

i think nowadays this world has more and more jobless people, "unemployment" rate is increasing. all of us, not only celebrities, really need to be "careful" dealing with such people.

Not sure what you mean?

She's pregnant, I'm glad she looked after her own safety. It seems like using stunt doubles is looked down upon in China for some reason so it's good that they worked something out to where she didn't actually have to ride a horse. Plus air quality is horrible in China so they really should be monitoring that. As for the other claims, she is the lead, she should be put up in a nice hotel. And 50 people? What a ridiculous exaggeration. They should at least come up with something more believable.

Good for her to take care of her health and protecting her baby. Making up stories of 50 staff….pfft…I don't think so.
She probably did bring some extra to at least help with Nutrition and to make sure everything she does is okay for the baby. I mean, if I have the money, I would do that to, especially when filming ancient dramas that needs to have some kung fu or flying and the long filming hours.
Pretty sure the production will not risk her losing her baby by making her have any contact Kung Fu or actualy putting her up in Wire (Not sure). However, I can understand why she would bring people to help her. She deserves to be a DIVA anyways. She already put in her time as a actress all these years.
If anything, she is helping the stunt double have job security 🙂
