Millions revel in China comeback of pop icon Wang Leehom, dive queen Quan Hongchan joins fun
Return of international pop idol at Macau mega event attracts 4 billion views on social media globally
Taiwanese-American singer Wang Leehom has made a comeback at a mega event in China, performing alongside stars like Jackie Chan and Olympic diving champion Quan Hongchan, sparking widespread attention online.
In December 2021, Wang announced his divorce from wife Lee Jinglei.
A short time later, Lee took to social media to accuse Wang of misconduct that included serial cheating and soliciting sex workers.
The scandal severely tarnished his public image, leading to multiple brands cutting ties with him.
In May, a Beijing court cleared Wang of any misconduct, ruling that the allegations were likely fabricated before unfreezing 9.01 million yuan (US$1.3 million) of his company’s assets.
