Simu Liu slams celebrity look-alike segment during NBA All-Star Weekend Game
`Shang-Chi` actor Simu Liu is clarifying his criticism of a celebrity look-alike segment aired during this weekend`s `NBA Celebrity All-Star Game`, featuring a side-by-side vantage of him and an audience member who appeared to be of Asian descent.
The actor initially tweeted that the segment “wasn`t cool”, once the big-screen comparison was brought to his attention by a fan`s tweet, reports `People` magazine.
He recently followed up with a second tweet clarifying his message. “To be perfectly clear the entire org and ops team surrounding all-star have been nothing but absolutely stellar to myself and all my friends. This was just one person with a camera. and no disrespect to my man in the videotron either! he`s gorgeous we just don`t look alike,” Liu, 33, wrote.
`People` further states that Liu played in the `NBA Celebrity All-Star Game` for Team Dwyane, headed by former NBA star Dwyane Wade. Among his teammates were rapper 21 Savage, singer Janelle Monae and NFL star DK Metcalf, who was crowned MVP.
