The term “celebrity disease” is defined as a condition in which a celebrity becomes snobbish, to the point that they take their fame and attention for granted. Recently, Chinese actress Zhou Dong Yu was called out by a fashion vlogger after her behavior during Paris Fashion Week.
Recently, Zhou Dong Yu attended Louis Vuitton‘s show in Paris, and she shared photos of her look on Instagram.
In now-deleted posts, a fashion blogger called Yvette called out the actress and her behavior at the event. In one of the posts, the blogger shared photos of people at the event, praising them for taking time out to interact with others.
Everyone has a great personality and is performing their duties earnestly. Although it’s a work demand, they proactively greeted and chatted with the clients. They all retouched their makeup and took photos.

She then posted a story about Zhou Dong Yu’s behavior, which she revealed was different from that of the other people attending. In particular, she posted about how she seemingly didn’t want to perform her duties and seemed unhappy during the whole schedule.
Zhou Dong Yu, if you don’t want to perform your duties then don’t come out. LV organized a photo session for promotions, but you wore slippers, didn’t take your jacket off, and were unhappy. You had a long face the entire time. You didn’t even respond for photo taking or when someone said hi. If you don’t want to work, then don’t. You deserve to be hated. I told LVMH.

After deleting the story, Yvette then went into more detail about Dong Yu’s behavior and how she was just being truthful. Despite not knowing the actress, she was just sharing her own thoughts on what she had witnessed.
I don’t want to say anything on Chinese platforms.
1. The brand requested that we take photos together. Taking photos with customers was part of her job. There were only five clients, and the photos need to promote the looks of the show. We didn’t say anything, it was her and her team that were doing the push and pull.
2. I’m not familiar with celebrities, and I’m not buying things in order to meet them. I just think she was rude. I don’t care whether she fulfilled her work duties or not, but she didn’t even nod her head or anything when we politely greeted her and said thank you. I think that’s really weird and that’s what I care about.
3. No one was forcing her to perform her duties or wear certain clothes. At the beginning, they chose celebrities to take photos, but then they told all of us to take them. If it’s like that, then don’t accept this job. Change your mindset.
4. I respect and understand every individual’s personality, but of course, I’m going to say something when a person insists on doing things their own way like that.
5. This happened during the time the brand purposely organized an event for six groups of clients to have a private photo session at the Peninsula Hotel after the fashion show. It did not clash with the show and press group photo and interview sessions. They are unrelated.
6. The public opinion can be harmful and can’t be controlled. I just posted about my daily life and ranted a little in my small account with few followers. I don’t even know her.
7. As a consumer and a 20-year-old female student, why do I need to be careful with what I say? I’ve always been truthful and direct.
8. Everyone has a lot of time on their hands
9. Thank you for everyone’s concern and help. I’ve caused a lot of worry and inconvenience to the staff and friends~ I’m totally fine.

While celebrities are human, the blogger was just sharing that the actress seemed like she didn’t appreciate her opportunities and that her behavior came across as rude and ungrateful.
