| ‘I’m Really Fed Up. I Don’t Even Care About Him’: Influencer Tsukino Usagi Calls Out Zhang Linghe Fans Over Two-Year Rumour. (Credits: Weibo) |
Two years after repeatedly denying she was ever involved with Chinese actor Zhang Linghe, influencer Tsukino Usagi (not a real name, username: 月野小兔) is once again at the centre of online discussion. This time, however, she is not addressing a new rumour. Instead, she is expressing frustration that a story she already denied back in 2024 continues to follow her around in 2026 like an unwanted sequel nobody asked for.
The influencer recently shared a lengthy post aimed directly at some of Zhang Linghe’s most devoted followers, saying she was exhausted by the constant accusations and criticism she continues to receive online.
According to her statement, despite making every effort over the past two years to avoid being linked to the actor, certain corners of social media still insist on pushing the same narrative.

The controversy dates back to 2024 when an individual known for closely tracking celebrity activities claimed that Zhang Linghe and Tsukino Usagi were secretly seeing each other.
The speculation quickly gained attention after some internet users compared videos posted by both parties and concluded they may have stayed at the same hotel around the same period.

At the time, Zhang Linghe’s studio swiftly rejected the claims. Tsukino Usagi also issued her own detailed response, firmly stating that she was not in a relationship with the actor and already had a boyfriend.
Many assumed the matter would quietly disappear after both sides addressed it. The internet, unfortunately, had other plans.

In her latest post, Tsukino Usagi explained that she has spent the last two years trying to avoid anything that could trigger fresh speculation. Yet she says she continues to be accused of deliberately presenting herself as the actor’s secret partner.
She expressed disbelief that she is somehow expected to monitor another person's whereabouts simply to avoid online theories being created around her.
Her message carried a noticeably sharper tone than previous responses. She stressed that she has absolutely no personal interest in Zhang Linghe and questioned why she remains a target despite repeatedly clarifying her position.
The influencer also criticised what she described as a culture where no matter what she does, someone will find a reason to attack her.

In her statement, Tsukino Usagi made it clear that she has absolutely no interest in Zhang Linghe and does not pay attention to his daily activities. She expressed frustration at the expectation that she should constantly monitor where the actor is or adjust her own behaviour to avoid sparking fresh rumours.
According to the influencer, it is unrealistic to expect someone to check another person's whereabouts every minute before posting content or going about their daily life, especially when that person has no connection to them.
She questioned why she should have to organise her life around avoiding speculation involving someone she says is completely unrelated to her, adding that the endless scrutiny has become both exhausting and unreasonable.

Some users sympathised with Tsukino Usagi, arguing that it is unreasonable for an influencer to spend years defending herself against a rumour that was never supported by evidence.
Meanwhile, some fans suggested the negative comments may not necessarily come from Zhang Linghe’s core fanbase. According to several C-netz, online fandom disputes are often complicated, with rival groups and anonymous accounts sometimes adding fuel to existing controversies. As a result, identifying who is actually behind the criticism is not always straightforward.

Some members of Zhang Linghe's fan community have also pushed back against the accusations, arguing that the behaviour described by Tsukino Usagi does not represent the actor's fanbase as a whole.
They claim that many of the hostile comments and rumours may have originated from a small group of obsessive followers who closely track celebrities' private activities, rather than ordinary supporters. According to these fans, it would be unfair to judge the entire Zhang Linghe fandom based on the actions of a handful of individuals, especially when the majority have neither participated in nor supported the continued harassment directed at the influencer.
