In recent years, Hong Kong martial arts star Qian Xiaohao, who mainly films online movies in mainland China, attended a charity event in Taiwan last November. He appeared slightly skinny and revealed that he had to take medication to control high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Surprisingly, just eight months later, he lost a shocking 20 kilograms.
On July 9th, Qian Xiaohao sat down for an interview with the Hong Kong newspaper “Headline Daily.” From the exposed photos, it is evident that he has significantly thinned down, with sunken cheeks and prominent neck tendons. Despite the scorching temperature of over 30 degrees Celsius on the day of the interview, Qian Xiaohao appeared in long sleeves, unable to conceal his emaciated figure. At 61 years old, he looks completely different from when he was last seen in Taiwan 8 months ago.
As for the reason behind his drastic weight loss, Qian Xiaohao revealed that since the outbreak of the pandemic, he has contracted the virus twice. While filming in Shanghai, China, he was forced to stay in a quarantine hotel, isolated from the outside world and with limited access to food. “Upon returning to Hong Kong, my appetite has not been good, leading to further weight loss,” he explained. Qian Xiaohao insisted that his current health condition is good, continuing to take medication for chronic illnesses without significant issues.
Famous for his roles in films like “Big Head Green Clothing vs. Zombies” and “Zombie Mr.,” Qian Xiaohao gained immense popularity. In recent years, he has been primarily filming online movies in mainland China and engaging with fans on social media platforms, even hosting fan club gatherings.
Reports indicate that a leaked video from a fan meeting of Qian Xiaohao shocked many fans with his gaunt and aged appearance. Numerous netizens expressed concern and even speculated about his health issues, prompting discussions online.
