Hong Kong actor Edison Chen found himself embroiled in another public dispute at Shanghai airport on 21 Jul 2025, just one month after his previous clash with a flight attendant.
Hong Kong Actor Edison Chen Gets Into Shanghai Airport Argument After Being Pushed
The 44-year-old Infernal Affairs star was involved in an argument with a fellow traveller who had allegedly pushed him from behind near the security checkpoint at around 7am local time.
A netizen who witnessed the incident shared details on Xiaohongshu, describing the scene as they watched from a distance. The witness wrote that they saw people quarreling near the security check and quickly recognised Edison as one of the individuals involved.
“This is a celebrity I really really liked when I was younger, and had to run into him during this awkward moment. He was shoved by the person behind him, they got into an argument, and the police were even called in,” the netizen explained.
Video footage from the scene showed Chen looking visibly upset with his hands tucked in his pockets. The Canadian-born actor remained silent throughout the exchange while standing next to a woman who spoke with the authorities on his behalf.
The witness noted that they could only observe from afar given the circumstances. “Celebs are human too, and they also deserve to have their personal space. Hopefully the problem is resolved soon without causing any boarding delays,” the netizen added.
Edison Chen’s Previous Flight Attendant Dispute Adds Context to Recent Airport Troubles
This latest incident follows Chen’s reported confrontation with a flight attendant on an ANA flight between Tokyo and New York on 1 Jun 2025.
According to his management, Chen was retrieving his luggage when a passenger behind him began moving forward.
When Chen politely asked to finish collecting his belongings first, a flight attendant intervened and allowed the other passenger to disembark first, citing the passenger’s top-tier Diamond status.
Chen, who reportedly held the same Diamond status, became confused by the exchange. The situation escalated when Chen allegedly threatened to get the flight attendant fired over the disagreement about disembarkation procedures.
