No joke: Woman makes out with Xiao Zhan's standee in Malaysia shopping mall, Entertainment News
A woman was spotted making out in a shopping mall in Malaysia — with a live-sized standee of Chinese actor Xiao Zhan.
In a social media post yesterday (July 7), a young woman with pink hair is seen cozying up to a standee of the 33-year-old singer-actor, who was recently announced the global ambassador of Honor N smartphone.
At the beginning of the Reel, she places a light pink scarf over the board placed outside an electronics shop, and proceeds to admire his face, giving him a smooch on the cheek.
She then touched his shoulder, caressed his face and stroked his head, before taking out a mobile phone from her pocket and attempting to take a selfie with the standee while on tiptoes.
However, her self-indulgent moment was interrupted when a staff member of the shop approached and shook her head, stopping her from proceeding any further.

Netizens commented that the location seemed to be the shopping mall Suria KLCC in Kuala Lumpur and that probably "life is stressful" for her.
One of them wrote: "Oh my gosh! I feel awkward for her."
This is not the first time Xiao Zhan's standee has been 'violated' in recent weeks. In another Reel posted on social media on July 1, a woman is also seen hauling a similar life-sized standee of him to the KLCC LRT station in Kuala Lumpur.
After boarding the LRT, she touched his face and head before another commuter accidentally knocked into the standee.
With quick reflexes, the woman checked the board before confronting the commuter aggressively.
Towards the end of the Reel, she quickly went to check on the standee again, touching every part of the board to make sure it wasn't damaged.

Xiao Zhan debuted in 2015 as part of the now defunct Chinese idol group X Nine. He shot to fame in 2019 after portraying Wei Wuxian in xianxia drama The Untamed (2019) and was most recently seen in the well-acclaimed costume drama The Legend of Zang Hai (2025).
In China, his fans have been collecting live-sized standees of him over the years, including those from brand endorsements.
On Chinese second-hand sales platform Goofish, live-sized standees of Xiao Zhan, including the latest Honour N smartphone standee, are sold between 30 and 500 Chinese yuan (S$5.30 and S$89).
