Physical appearance is essential, especially when you’re in the public eye. Just like Jay Chou (周杰倫), Kris Wu (吴亦凡) has been facing weight issues over the past few months.
During a recent interview, the former EXO member finally opened up about the criticism he has been getting after putting on some weight.
3 months since he was compared to Hong Kong actor Bobby Yip’s (八両金) son following his weight gain, the 29-year-old rapper has been relying on a disciplined diet to slim down. Kris also shed some light on what has been the cause.
“There was a period when my weight gain was hotly discussed. I am very well aware of its cause. It’s because I was staying long periods in the recording studio, and as you know what can happen in a studio. We would just eat what’s often referred to as junk food for the sake of convenience,” he explained.
It didn’t help that his encourage and close friends didn’t notice that he had gotten fatter. The Canadian-Chinese recalled one instance when pop star Will Pan (潘玮柏) was in the studio and proceeded to ask if he looked more plump. Will replied, “No, I think you’re quite skinny.”
This is probably due to the fact that people in our everyday lives wouldn’t notice the little changes. But after it became a hot topic on social media, Kris made it a point to eat healthier and exercise regularly.

By the looks of it, we’d say that Kris Wu is on the right track 😉
