已淘汰选手Tyler Cameron转发嘲笑Harry Shum Jr.的视频引批评:Shum刚在《与星共舞》讲完华裔移民家庭往事

已被淘汰的《与星共舞》选手Tyler Cameron近日转发了一条嘲笑华裔演员Harry Shum Jr.(岑勇康)在节目中落泪的TikTok视频,引发粉丝批评。据Parade报道,截至11月13日,这条转发已从Cameron的TikTok上看不到,Cameron与Shum本人都尚未公开回应此事。
事情源于11月10日周二播出的《与星共舞》第35季格莱美之夜。44岁的Shum与职业舞者Jenna Johnson搭档,跳了一支Lady Gaga与Bruno Mars合唱的《Die With a Smile》萨尔萨舞,拿到30分中的29分,接近满分。
在赛前播出的排练短片里,Shum谈起自己的成长经历,情绪明显激动。他出生在哥斯达黎加利蒙,父母是华人移民,一家人后来移居美国旧金山时他只有6岁。他说,自己从小看着身边的人跳萨尔萨、梅伦格和巴恰塔,自己却一直只是旁观者,这次很想真正触碰自己的根。他还说,自己一直回避跳萨尔萨,是因为它让他想起一家人从哥斯达黎加搬到美国时经历的那段艰难日子。排练中,他一度因为情绪涌上来而要求暂停片刻。
节目播出几小时后,一个粉丝账号在TikTok上发了一条嘲笑他落泪的视频:画面用的是《美国恐怖故事》中Jessica Lange哭泣的片段,配文写道「当Chipotle店员问Harry Shum Jr.要不要在他的墨西哥卷饼碗里加萨尔萨酱时」。粉丝很快发现,33岁的Cameron转发了这条视频。Cameron是《单身女郎》第15季的亚军,本季《与星共舞》早些时候已与搭档Sharna Burgess一起被淘汰。
批评声随即出现。一位Reddit用户写道,Cameron这样转发「太没品」。一位TikTok评论者说,拿Harry的移民故事开玩笑「太不尊重人」,并指出Shum一直对Cameron很友善。也有不少粉丝留言力挺Shum,说他一向情感丰富、对舞蹈尤其投入,「他是用舞蹈去感受的人」,这不是做给镜头看的。
让这次转发更受注意的是时机。周二节目播出后,Cameron刚发过一条TikTok,谈到网上针对仍在比赛选手的负面言论,说「你不必踩低别人,来抬高自己」。据Parade与EntertainmentNow报道,到周四早上,那条被转发的嘲笑视频已在Cameron的TikTok上看不到;截至11月13日的报道,Cameron与Shum都没有公开回应这场风波。

Eliminated DWTS Contestant Tyler Cameron Faces Backlash for Reposting a Video Mocking Harry Shum Jr., Who Had Just Shared His Chinese Immigrant Family's Story
Tyler Cameron, an already-eliminated contestant on Dancing With the Stars, is facing backlash from fans after reposting a TikTok video that mocked Chinese-American actor Harry Shum Jr.'s emotional moment on the show. According to Parade, by November 13 the repost was no longer visible on Cameron's TikTok, and neither Cameron nor Shum has publicly addressed the backlash.
The moment came on the show's Grammy Night episode on Tuesday, November 10. Shum, 44, and his professional partner Jenna Johnson performed a salsa to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' "Die With a Smile," earning a near-perfect 29 out of 30.
In the pair's pre-dance package, Shum became emotional talking about his upbringing. He was born in Limon, Costa Rica, to Chinese immigrant parents, and the family moved to San Francisco, California, when he was six. He said people around him danced salsa, merengue and bachata while he was always an observer, and that he was excited to tap into his roots. He explained that he had avoided salsa because he associated it with the struggles his family went through moving from Costa Rica to America, and during rehearsals he asked for a short break after being overwhelmed with emotion.
Hours after the episode, a fan account posted a TikTok mocking his tears, pairing a clip of American Horror Story star Jessica Lange crying with the caption, "Harry Shum jr when the chipotle worker asks if he wants salsa on his burrito bowl." Fans soon noticed that Cameron, 33, the runner-up on Season 15 of The Bachelorette, who was eliminated earlier this season with partner Sharna Burgess, had reposted the video.
Many viewers were unhappy. One Reddit user called the repost distasteful. One TikTok commenter called it disrespectful to poke fun at Harry's immigration story, noting that Shum had always been kind to Cameron. Other fans rushed to defend Shum, with one writing that Harry has always been emotional and passionate, especially about dancing, and that he feels through dance rather than performing for the cameras.
The timing drew extra attention because, after Tuesday's episode, Cameron had posted a TikTok addressing negativity aimed at the remaining contestants, saying, "You don't have to push someone else down to bring someone up." According to Parade and EntertainmentNow, the repost was no longer visible on Cameron's TikTok by Thursday morning, and as of the November 13 reports, neither man had publicly addressed the backlash.
