Wilber Pan "overturned".
At his recent concert, Wilber Pan wore a red suit and sang and danced vigorously, but netizens broke down with laughter.
Because he is obviously fat compared to before, in the videos and pictures posted by fans, the neck is almost not visible.
Netizens ridiculed: Pan Wei's "thin" has become Pan Wei's "thick".
At the same time, many netizens shouted that they hoped that male stars could maintain self-discipline and maintain image management.
Looking at today's entertainment industry, there are many idols like Wilber Pan who are middle-aged and have lost their appearance.
But there are also frozen age male gods who keep their figure and appearance online.
How big is the gap between them?
01
Recently, the image of the concert has also rushed to the hot search, as well as Wang Dongcheng, a member of the former idol boy group "Flywheel Sea", which was once popular all over the country.
Wang Dongcheng, who was 42 years old at the time, wore a leather jacket and leather pants, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and looked no different from when he was young.
Some netizens commented: "He looked like this when I was in elementary school, and he still looked like this when I was in graduate school."
The most rare thing is that he not only has eight-pack abs, but also shark muscles that many male stars can't train, and his body is hot.
From head to toe, Wang Dongcheng does not show the old age of middle-aged, and he is still full of youth.
There are also many netizens in the comment area, comparing Wilber Pan with Wang Dongcheng, which is not only the difference between married and unmarried, but also a stark contrast between self-discipline and self-discipline.
When Wilber Pan was young, he also gained a lot of "girlfriend fans" because of his handsome appearance, and he was nicknamed "Pan Shuai".
When Wilber Pan first debuted, even with a messy hairstyle and simple outfits, he couldn't hide his handsomeness.
But now, even if Wilber Pan, who is negligent in weight management, does not collapse in appearance, his body is still fat and many people shout:
"Hurry up and lose weight, the neck is hidden in the name".
02
At the same time as Wilber Pan, there are two male stars who are known for their handsome style, and they are often compared by the public.
They are Shawn Yue and Edison Chen.
They were of the same age, and they filmed the movie "Infernal Affairs" together, and the two quickly became friends.
Later, the two collaborated on "Jianghu" and "Initial D", and they cooperated tacitly in the play to create classic screen roles.
Slowly, as the two became famous, coupled with similar styles and interpretations, the media began to compare the two.
Edison Chen's family has been wealthy since he was a child, and as an ABC, he is even more uninhibited and chic, also known as the "handsome ceiling".
His detached eyes and cool outfit make him deeply loved by the public, especially female audiences.
Yu Wenle is more mature and charming, which is related to the fact that he started to make money and work hard early, and he is more restrained and calm.
Yu Wenle's thick eyebrows and high nose bridge are more sunny and cheerful than Edison Chen, and they have also captured the hearts of countless girls.
But the current two of them are probably going to disappoint everyone.
Even though Edison Chen announced his retirement from the entertainment industry that year, now his figure has not completely disappeared from the public eye.
Some time ago, a recent photo of him leaked out.
Edison Chen in the picture shows his old age, vicissitudes of life, although his figure has not been fat, but he has long lost the handsome young man he was back then, and many netizens have left messages: "It seems like Zhao Benshan".
And Yu Wenle's appearance is also greatly discounted now.
In the personal news he shared, although Yu Wenle was wearing sunglasses on the selfie, it was difficult to hide the traces left by the years, and he looked completely like a middle-aged greasy uncle at this time.
In the pictures sent by netizens by chance, Yu Wenle is even more frighteningly old, and the similarity with Edison Chen is that he also looks somewhat similar to Zhao Benshan.
The two handsome Hong Kong-style male gods are now haggard, which is really embarrassing.

I don't know how many friends remember the famous male model group "The Three Musketeers of Kaiwo".
Zheng Yuanchang, He Junxiang, and Ruan Jingtian, who also belong to Kaiwo Agency, as members of the group, often attended various catwalks and variety shows together.
The three of them also made many girls scream because of their tall figures and charming and handsome facial features, and quickly occupied the top position of idol dramas.
Zheng Yuanchang starred in "Mischievous Kiss", the handsome "Jiang Naoki" is still the male god in the hearts of the audience.
He Junxiang's "Falling in Love with Chameleon" and "The Devil is by Your Side" are also classics of idol dramas, and he also won the nickname "Xiaomei" because of his handsome appearance.
And Ruan Jingtian's "Fated I Love You" broke the record of the highest ratings in the history of Taiwan puppets, and "Queen of Lost Dogs" also had the highest ratings for 21 consecutive weeks, and he has a unique charm with a wild and cute appearance.
Today's "Three Musketeers" also continue to have new developments in the public eye.
Ruan Jingtian produced the popular high-quality movie "Removing the Three Evils Around the Week" this year, and many viewers were not only impressed by his superb acting skills, but also deeply attracted by his handsome appearance full of sexual tension.
Ruan Jingtian, who is 41 years old, is not only eye-catching, but his face is basically the same as when he was young, and even shows the charm of a mature man, which shows how self-disciplined he is.
He Junxiang, who also produced popular works, is inferior.
In May, the TV series "We Are Not Kind Enough" in which he participated ended, and compared with the two female leads, He Junxiang's discussion was really not high.
The current "Xiaomei" is far from the handsome young man at that time, although it must conform to the character of a 40-year-old married man in the play, He Junxiang outside the play still looks greasy, and he no longer has the refreshing feeling of oxygen back then.
As for "Jiang Zhishu" Zheng Yuanchang, although there are no new works, in the photos he posted, he is still the handsome male protagonist of the idol drama before.

There is also a strong contrast, as well as the "F4" members in the well-known TV series "Meteor Garden".
The most obvious gap is between Zhu Xiaotian and Yan Chengxu.
At that time, "Ximen" Zhu Xiaotian had a thin melon seed face, and the full lying silkworm made his eyes full of affection, and he looked like an elegant and beautiful young man with a graceful demeanor when he put on glasses.
"Daoming Temple" Yan Chengxu, as the male protagonist, has both a domineering and handsome side, but also full of gentleness, with a double-door figure and a clear and superior appearance, just like coming out of a comic.
But now, the two who were both beautiful men back then are very different.
Zhu Xiaotian's current appearance really surprised netizens.
He has completely transformed from that personable beautiful boy to an amiable middle-aged uncle.
In his own videos, Zhu Xiaotian has become a food blogger, either checking in restaurants or trying novel foods every day.
The melon seed face of the year has disappeared and has become a chubby double chin, and at a glance it is not even recognizable that this is the "Ximen" of the year.
Zhu Xiaotian also posted a video to ridicule his appearance, but the reason behind it is because he has a genetic disease.
Therefore, he was unable to do a lot of exercise and fitness to maintain his figure, which led to his current middle-aged fortune.
As far as Cheng Xu is concerned, he is completely opposite to Zhu Xiaotian, and now he is not only not old at all, but even more "old-fashioned".
Recently, photos of him participating in offline activities have been leaked, which has sparked heated discussions.
Yan Chengxu was wearing a black suit, and his hairstyle was still the same as that made in "Daoming Temple" back then, he was 46 years old, he was not greasy at all, and his eyes were still very clear, as if he was still that refreshing teenager.
In Yan Chengxu's latest TV series "Summer Flower" in 23 years, he played a middle-aged down-and-out uncle, but what is presented in the film has nothing to do with the "middle-aged" and "down-and-out" in the audience's impression.
The full muscles and facial features that are no different from those of the 20-year-old make Yan Chengxu look very compatible with the girl Xu Ruohan, and the imaginary 20-year-old disobedience is not obvious at all.
Both "F4", Zhu Xiaotian and Yan Chengxu have taken two completely different paths.
05
In domestic entertainment, there are also many male stars of the same age and different faces, and they are also in a miserable situation in comparison.
Once, Sha Yi and Yan Yikuan were both male gods in ancient costumes in the eyes of the public.
One of them is 78 years old and the other is 79 years old, and they are also the same age.
From Sha Pingwei in "The Wrong Sedan to Marry the Right Lang", to Bai Zhantang in "Wulin Gaiden", Sha Yi's appearance is very good in costume dramas.
Sha Yi, who was dressed in ancient costumes, was very handsome and handsome under the lens of no dermabrasion and filters at that time.
And Yan Yikuan is a well-known "modeling face".
As a native Chinese, Yan Yikuan's facial features are deep and handsome, with a sense of mixed race refinement, but full of oriental charm, and is listed as the early "four beauties of the end of the world".
His masterpieces "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" and "The Imperial Concubine of the World" let him sit firmly on the throne of the male god in ancient costumes, and even in the cameo "Beauty Scheming", the image of the "scumbag" who drinks casually also makes people "look at it for ten thousand years".
Now, they are all middle-aged, but the difference in appearance is not ordinarily large.
Now Sha Yi is completely blessed, and his unshaven appearance is matched with his funny performance in variety shows, which is completely a "funny uncle" image.
With the changes year by year, Sha Yi's figure has only increased, who would have thought that he was also a high-profile ancient male god back then.
But Yan Yikuan was like eating a "preservative".
Although it is not as frequently exposed in the public eye as Sha Yi, from his personal dynamics and chance encounters with netizens, it can still be seen that Yan Yikuan is still amazingly handsome.
In his recent sharing of raising flowers, the shooting technique is very "old".
In the photo, Yan Yikuan leans against the flowers and closes his eyes to feel the fragrance of the flowers, his hair is slightly messy, and there is still a little scum, but his facial features are still so three-dimensional and handsome, comparable to back then.
can really be called "people are more fancy", or the well-known "modeling face" male god.
epilogue
In today's entertainment industry, some male stars, whether they are teenagers, young people, or middle-aged, can be labeled as "handsome guys".
But some male stars often only have a short-lived peak of appearance.
For the standards of male stars, it seems that as long as they do not touch the moral bottom line, they will not collapse.
Therefore, many childhood male gods have been reduced to vicissitudes of life one by one.
But as a star, maintaining figure and appearance management is also a professional ethics, at least to present a good image to fans.
I hope that male stars can improve their standards for themselves and maintain self-discipline in appearance and body management.
Don't let yourself go too much and keep "involution".
