Chinese star Kris Wu and his management team have filed a defamation suit against an influencer who said she was his ex-girlfriend.

In an explosive Weibo post last Thursday (July 8), 18-year-old student Du Meizhu alleged that Wu, 30, would dangle female lead opportunities in music videos and singing contracts to young women, some of whom were underaged.
