Zhao Lusi to Leave Galaxy Cool Agency After Health Issues and Mistreatment
Chinese actress Zhao Lusi is preparing to depart from Galaxy Cool Entertainment Culture Media Co. Ltd. after completing her current project, Almost Lover.
Zhao Lusi, affectionately known as Rosy Zhao, has faced significant health challenges in recent months. In December 2024, she was hospitalized due to a sudden illness, leading to the suspension of all her professional activities.
Reports indicated that she suffered from depression and aphasia, conditions that required long-term rehabilitation. The actress was seen in a frail state, necessitating the use of a wheelchair, which deeply concerned her fans and the entertainment community.
During this period, allegations surfaced regarding Zhao Lusi’s mistreatment by her agency. Accusations included both mental and physical abuse, with claims that the agency exploited her by overworking her and neglecting her well-being.
Fans expressed outrage over her intense work schedule in 2024, believing it contributed to her deteriorating health.
In a heartfelt letter shared on Weibo, Zhao Lusi addressed these concerns, acknowledging her struggles with illness and past abuses.
She revealed that she had endured mistreatment since 2019, including physical abuse during her early career. Despite these challenges, she expressed gratitude for the support from her family, friends, and fans, which aided her recovery.
After a period of rest and rehabilitation, Zhao Lusi made a public appearance in January 2025, attending a charity event where she spoke about her health progress.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
