Chinese actress Jing Tian was slapped with a million-dollar fine for breaching China's advertising law by touting candies as a weight-loss drug.
Jing, who has been in Hollywood blockbusters such as The Great Wall (2016) with actor Matt Damon and Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018), has been a brand ambassador for Infinite Free, a Guangzhou-based company that claimed its fruit and vegetable candy could prevent the body from absorbing sugars, oils and fats.
