Scalpers<\/a> will seize any chance to make money from concert tix. But who knew even celeb weddings could be a be a cash grab opportunity too?<\/p>\n

Chinese idol Huang Zitao<\/a>\u00a0recently\u00a0(Oct 16) held his wedding ceremony with Chinese actress Xu Yiyang<\/a>, 28,\u00a0almost a year after they officially registered their marriage.<\/p>\n

The 32-year-old former EXO member previously revealed plans to invite fans and even live stream the ceremony while supporters looked forward to a potential reunion of the K-pop group at the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And guess who tried to milk the star-studded occasion for all it’s worth.<\/p>\n

Prior to the wedding, numerous scalper tickets for Zitao\u2019s wedding surfaced on Chinese social media.<\/p>\n

Prices reportedly ranged from 10 yuan (S$0.20) to over 10K yuan (S$1,800), depending on the packages and included perks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An unofficial guest list circulating online hinted that EXO members Lay Zhang<\/a> and Lu Han<\/a>, as well as TFBoys<\/a> member Karry Wang<\/a> would be present, and some ticket packages even claimed to offer photo opportunity with the attending celebs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chinese media randomly contacted one of the ticket sellers, who claimed that buyers could gain entry to the wedding for 4500 yuan (S$815). However, a 500 yuan (S$90) deposit would need to be paid in advance, with the remaining balance due upon arrival.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, fans are sharp enough to not fall for the likely scam.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Zitao\u2019s agency, Z.TAO Studio,\u00a0also issued a statement on Weibo two days before the wedding (Oct 14) to set the record straight.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cRecently, there has been a large amount of false information circulating online about the so-called \u2018Huang Zitao & Xu Yiyang\u2019s Century Wedding\u2019 and its guest list. Some scalpers are even claiming to sell entry spots. All of this is untrue!” they clarified.<\/p>\n

They urged fans to not believe the online rumours to avoid financial losses, and asserted that the wedding is a “purely private, small-scale event.”<\/p>\n

“There is no such thing as a \u2018century wedding\u2019. No media have been invited, and there are absolutely no tickets for sale.”<\/p>\n

We hope no one fell for the scam or got turned away at the door?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Scalpers will seize any chance to make money from concert tix.
