S'porean livestreamers issue sarcastic apology after backlash over vulgar tirade
The apology video gained further backlash.
Two Singaporean livestreamers, Winnie Heng and Vadalene Eng, faced backlash after issuing a sarcastic apology on their TikTok account for a vulgar outburst they had made earlier. The apology was fake, as Heng admitted, revealing her tears were merely for the camera. Heng targeted "C* people" for cancelling orders, suggesting she should have cursed them with a voodoo doll instead.
Eng chimed in, joking about Heng's concern for them. The pair claimed to be "Singapore's best livestreamers." The fake apology came in response to criticisms over their vulgar comments during a livestream sale. Customers had allegedly cancelled their orders of sought-after crystals around 3am. Eng clarified that the pair had spent two months preparing for the livestream, despite one of them being unwell.
Thousands of viewers tuned in, with many of the customers Heng and Eng criticized having snatched up multiple items before attempting to cancel them after the sale ended. Heng's mocking apology garnered widespread ridicule, with netizens criticizing their lack of genuine remorse and calling their behavior "embarrassing."
