Nicholas Tse is arrogant, controversial statement "does not accept men wearing makeup"

This year's Asia Expo in Hong Kong was not only a grand music party gathering a series of famous names such as Yung To Nhi, Tran Dich Tan, Truong Hinh Hy, MIRROR and Soft Hard, but also became the center of attention thanks to the impressive appearance of Nicholas Tse.

As the opening artist of the concert, Nicholas Tse stepped out in an elegant white suit, holding an electric guitar, performing the hit Not a Theorem, making the entire auditorium explode. The combination of his confident demeanor, powerful voice, and captivating performance style quickly stirred up the atmosphere. In a short sharing, the male artist said that this was the first time he performed at this event, and he could not help but feel nervous but extremely excited.

However, what made social media stir was not on stage, but a detail backstage: Nicholas Tse's completely bare face - no powder, no foundation, no lip balm. Even at the age of 44, he still makes fans "wow" because of his healthy, bright skin, handsome and masculine demeanor that is hard to match.

This image immediately reminded the audience of the singer's statement: "I don't wear makeup! Men must act like men." Some fans expressed their admiration: "True masculinity", "True to the first generation of Hong Kong stars", "I want to know his skin care secrets!". To them, Nicholas Tse represents the image of a brave, natural artist who does not follow the glossy appearance standards of the modern entertainment industry.

However, there are also many opinions that his point of view can make male artists who choose to wear makeup feel hurt or unintentionally create prejudiced pressure. "Not everyone is confident enough to not wear makeup. It is a personal right and should not be judged," one audience member argued. Another emphasized: "He is only talking about himself. That does not mean denying the choices of others."

Nicholas Tse's "anti-makeup" statement is not just empty talk. His longtime manager, Mani Fok, once said that even when performing on stage, the male artist is only allowed to blot oil, absolutely not allowed to touch his eyebrows or use any beauty products. Actress Zhao Wei, who worked with him on the show Chinese Restaurant, also confirmed: "He never wears makeup, whether for filming or taking pictures. His skin is really beautiful."

Even his female colleagues like Joey Yung and Charlene Choi were envious. They publicly praised Nicholas Tse's "flawless" appearance, claiming that he was one of the few male artists who could maintain his charm without the help of makeup.

No longer the rebellious teenager with bright red hair, Nicholas Tse now has many roles: On screen, he is a good actor. In the kitchen, he is the soul of "Feng Vi". In the market, he is a shrewd investor. In his journey to adulthood and middle age, he gradually learned the meaning of "slowing down and really living".

PO (Post Production Office Limited), founded by Nicholas Tse in 2003, is a company providing post-production, visual effects and sound services. The company has participated in the creation of films such as Infernal Affairs, Mei Lanfang and Warlord, gradually becoming a well-known enterprise in the field of Chinese film post-production and has a stable international clientele. The company's current valuation has exceeded one billion HKD, in which Nicholas Tse holds the majority of shares.

Nicholas Tse also has the "trump card" of the Chef Nic brand, along with a food business empire. Since 2014, Chef Nic has transformed from a culinary program into a food brand, currently selling ready-made dishes such as Chef Nic chicken, Chef Nic sauce, and side dishes with Haidilao... By 2024, Chef Nic's annual revenue will exceed 200 million HKD and plans to expand to Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore and Malaysia.

Despite the decline in the number of film and television productions in recent years, Nicholas Tse’s films continue to generate royalties across multiple platforms. His early musical works such as Because I Love You, Yellow Man and Viva are still widely broadcast in mainland China, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. The value of the music copyright is estimated at more than 50 million HKD.
