Zhou Ye’s recent Fashion Week schedule was packed — she not only walked for one major brand but also attended another show alongside Dilraba Dilmurat, a sign of top-tier exposure among post-95 actresses. However, her facial expressions during the events sparked online discussion, with some netizens claiming she appeared to roll her eyes repeatedly while talking, even suggesting she might have done so toward Dilraba. Although fans explained that Zhou Ye was reacting to staff members, the explanation failed to convince everyone.
Beyond the expression controversy, Zhou Ye also faced criticism for her treatment of fans in France. A supporter who flew there to personally deliver a letter said she was met with indifference — her two attempts to hand over the letter were ignored, leaving her disappointed. Netizens then mocked Zhou Ye for maintaining her “cold-faced” image, saying she seemed even more aloof than before.
Meanwhile, some questioned whether her continued access to strong industry resources might be due to her connections, though others argued that the controversy had been exaggerated online. In any case, public image is crucial for any actor. Hopefully, Zhou Ye can reflect on this incident and return to the spotlight with greater humility and sincerity.
