According to media outlet Sinchew, Athena Chu has subtly responded to netizens’ harsh reactions towards her alleged “braless look” at a recent event. In particular the Hong Kong star published various close-up photo of herself at the aforementioned event, along with the caption, “Beautiful moments were captured thanks to you – a summer party of youth”.
Through the photos, it can be seen that Athena Chu actually wore a bra, and her figure was admirable – contrary to previous allegations. IT is believed that the actress was aware of the controversy, and deemed to shut it down in a rather intelligent manner.
Meanwhile, as Hong Kong screen legend Athena Chu made a rare public appearance at a recent fashion event, drawing widespread attention for her youthful beauty and elegant presence. However, the internet was quick to focus on something else: her seemingly braless look, which sparked both praise and criticism across social media.
According to China Times, Athena Chu has been keeping a low profile since marrying Paul Wong, guitarist of legendary band Beyond, in 2012. She stepped back from acting to focus on family life, rarely appearing at public events or in new film projects.
But during her recent fashion outing, the 1971-born actress turned heads. Dressed in a classic white shirt with her hair styled in an elegant high bun, Athena impressed with her radiant skin and poised appearance. Her warm smile and graceful demeanor reminded many fans of her heyday in the 1990s, when she was one of Hong Kong’s most sought-after stars.
Still, controversy emerged when netizens noticed that Athena appeared to skip wearing a bra. Some photos captured moments that viewers described as “too revealing,” prompting sharp criticism online.
- “Why wear something so inappropriate in public?”
- “What was her stylist thinking?”
- “She completely shattered the goddess image I’ve had of her.”
On the flip side, others came to her defense, arguing that the design of her outfit may not have required undergarments and that modern fashion techniques could have prevented any unintended exposure. Supporters praised her confidence and dismissed the criticism as outdated.
Athena Chu rose to fame through major hits like A Chinese Odyssey, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, Journey to the West, The Tricky Master, and The Duke of Mount Deer. She was also known for her high-profile relationship with comedy legend Stephen Chow, whom she dated for over three years after co-starring in Fight Back to School II (1991).
Since tying the knot in 2012, Athena has chosen a more private lifestyle. But her latest appearance proves that she remains a captivating figure—whether for her timeless beauty or bold fashion choices.
