| Thai Celebs Caught in Crossfire After Cambodian Influencer Twists Innocent Dinner Clip |
Anne Thongprasom, Thailand’s iconic actress, and rising starlet Lingling Kwong have found themselves at the centre of a surprising and frankly bizarre international drama this week — all thanks to a dinner video gone viral for the wrong reasons.
It all kicked off when a Cambodian influencer accused Anne, Lingling, and Channel 3 exec Dew of “mocking a gas attack” in a video that clearly shows… well, absolutely none of that.
The video in question? A light-hearted behind-the-scenes moment where the trio were enjoying a Japanese meal featuring a bit of theatrical dry ice. You know, the kind used in fancy restaurants to jazz up a dish.

But instead of seeing it for what it was — a harmless foodie moment — the Cambodian content creator twisted the context completely, linking it to an unfounded conspiracy theory about a so-called “gas attack” from Thailand to Cambodia.
The claim had zero evidence to back it up, but that didn’t stop it from catching fire on Cambodian social media. Before long, Anne, Lingling, and Dew were being bombarded with negative comments, unfollow campaigns, and online hate — all for doing nothing more than enjoying their meal.

Naturally, the fans weren’t having it. Lingling’s fanbase especially moved fast, issuing a formal statement via social platforms to debunk the false narrative.
They urged the public to report the misleading content and began collecting screengrabs and evidence for potential legal follow-up with the artists’ agencies.

At the time of writing, Anne, Lingling, and Dew haven’t released a public response — likely taking time to assess the situation calmly. But their fandoms have stepped up, rallying behind them with fierce support and calling out the dangers of misinformation in the age of viral content.
While this episode might seem outrageous on the surface, it also sheds light on how cross-border misunderstandings can spiral quickly online. A bit of dry ice, a misinterpreted vibe, and suddenly you’re the face of a fake scandal in another country.
For now, all eyes are on how the agencies and legal teams respond — but one thing’s clear: Thai fans aren’t letting this slide.
