Chinese netizens are abuzz with the news that actress Li Xiaoran has unexpectedly withdrawn from the reality TV show "Riding the Wind 2026." The reason is believed to stem from the negative public reaction she has received recently.

It all started with a social media post from an IP address in Hunan, supposedly the headquarters of the production unit for the 2026 Sisters Riding the Wind show. The account revealed that Li Xiaoran had decided to withdraw midway through the competition, and also stated that there would be changes to the group lineups. The reason given was the online controversy following Performance 1 and a recurring knee injury.

According to circulating information, Xu Jie'er will replace Li Xiaoran as team leader to lead the group's performance of the song "I Will Wait" in the second round of the competition. The source also claims that the producers will soon release an official announcement in the next few days. In a short time, the article quickly climbed to the top of Weibo's hot search, attracting nearly 100 million discussions.

Social media exploded with a barrage of conflicting opinions. The majority of fans expressed disappointment, even declaring they would stop watching the show if Li Xiaoran truly withdrew. They felt the actress brought immense appeal, generated much lively discussion, and helped maintain the show's popularity. Some netizens also analyzed that the contestants had spent a lot of time practicing for the second performance round, so it was unlikely that the team captain would suddenly quit midway. Many argued that only unavoidable circumstances such as health issues or a critical schedule could cause a contestant to leave the show.

Amidst the spreading rumors, Li Xiaoran made a noteworthy move. The actress, born in 1976, posted two photos on her personal Weibo account, showing her intently recording for a performance. Accompanying the images was a short caption: "Striving to catch up with the excellent senior actresses." The post quickly attracted significant attention. Many viewers believed this was her indirect way of denying the withdrawal rumors. However, some were skeptical, arguing that if the information was inaccurate, the actress could have directly clarified the situation instead of posting an ambiguous message that could easily be misinterpreted.

In fact, if you've followed the show from the beginning, it's easy to see that Li Xiaoran is one of the most surprising contestants of the season. Before participating, she was jokingly called "the worst singer in showbiz" by fans, because vocal ability has never been the actress's strong point. However, this very weakness unintentionally became the factor that made her so impressive.

During the first performance round, Li Xiaoran's team's rendition of "A Wishful Note" was criticized for being off-key, but it quickly went viral on social media. The heated debates surrounding the showdown between Li Xiaoran's team and Zhuang Fa's team also caused a stir online. While Zhuang Fa's team was judged to have performed much better, they lost and had a member eliminated. Li Xiaoran's team, on the other hand, won amidst online criticism. Li Xiaoran's name subsequently appeared frequently on search rankings. Currently, rumors of Li Xiaoran withdrawing from the program have garnered even more public attention than ever before.
