Xiaxue argues on livestream with Jaylene Hong over comments about Simonboy

Singapore influencers Wendy Cheng, also known as Xiaxue, and Jaylene Hong engaged in a heated argument during a livestream event. The controversy erupted due to remarks made by Hong regarding Xiaxue during a recent public disagreement with Simonboy, whose real name is Khung Wei Nan. Xiaxue accused Hong of starting a charity for her deceased daughter, Megan Khung, who died in 2020 after being abused by her mother and her mother's boyfriend.

The spat escalated when Hong made a statement implying that Xiaxue's appearance was "ugly," which Xiaxue took personally. The argument took place during a livestream organized by Century Bakkwa's owner, Simbian Chua, following Xiaxue's request to address a dispute between two other streamers. Despite Xiaxue's request to Simbian not to invite Hong, the influencer joined the livestream, resulting in an awkward and heated debate.

During the livestream, Hong denied saying anything to Xiaxue and stated that she disagreed with Xiaxue's actions. Xiaxue responded by asserting that Hong had belittled others and questioned the relevance of her experience. The dispute centered around the responsibility of Simonboy and Hong's reactions to it, with Xiaxue calling for Hong to acknowledge Simonboy's involvement.
