We all know by now that celebrities are constantly getting comments for their looks – whether they’re too skinny, too fat or too old. Recently, Taiwanese actor and singer Jerry Yan (言承旭) received mixed reactions from netizens for his unedited appearance.
The 47-year-old recently appeared at an event for a luxury skincare brand, Clé de Peau Beauté. Jerry, who showed up in a white suit and curled hair, attracted much attention with his handsomeness. He also shared several photos from the event, garnering tons of praise for his looks. However, some noted that the pictures may not reflect how he actually looks in person.

A netizen recently shared several photos taken during the same day but by regular people who attended the event. These close-up photos appeared unedited, highlighting Jerry’s textured skin and tanned complexion. The Weibo user captioned the post, “This is Jerry Yan, who is nearly 50. He also gets old.” The captions allude that the public figure isn’t as youthful as many expected.
Many netizens have reacted to the post, sharing the same sentiments as the original poster. Some said Jerry may appear older in the photos because of excessive makeup and unsuitable hairstyle. However, others defend the actor’s appearance, saying he looks great for his age since many celebrities of the same age look older. Some even said he’s still handsome and youthful despite his minor flaws. Others also argued that he might not be photogenic but still looks good in person.
