Did Hoshi throw ‘shade' at BTS? SEVENTEEN member's online activity has fans calling him ‘bitter about Bangtan's success'
SEVENTEEN's Hoshi has found himself at the center of online discussions after his social media activity triggered unexpected controversy. The singer-dancer, known for his passion for performance and choreography, recently liked a viral Instagram reel. The reel revisited SEVENTEEN 's powerful stage at the 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA). The seemingly simple gesture has since divided netizens, sparking debates about its meaning. Did Hoshi's like on 2019 MAMA post subtly 'shade' BTS? The Instagram post in question featured a clip of SEVENTEEN performing their hit track Hit at the 2019 MAMA. The caption read: 'Never forget SVT performance of Hit on 2019 MAMA right after they lost the Best Dance Performance Award.' The tone of the caption suggested that the group delivered an unforgettable performance despite not taking home the trophy that night. Once fans noticed that Hoshi had liked the post, screenshots of his activity began making rounds across X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, and online communities. While the reel didn't mention any specific artist, the fact that BTS had won the Best Dance Performance award that year fueled speculation and assumptions. Fans debate Hoshi's Instagram like Hoshi's like quickly became a topic of debate. Some interpreted it as a subtle dig or 'shade' directed at BTS, implying bitterness over the award outcome. These critics suggested that liking a post that highlights SEVENTEEN's loss while drawing attention to their superior performance could reflect underlying dissatisfaction. On the other hand, many fans defended Hoshi. They state that the reel simply celebrated SEVENTEEN's efforts and energy on stage, without targeting anyone. Supporters emphasized that the post did not mention BTS by name, and reading negativity into it was speculative at best. Others noted that fans often like posts out of appreciation or nostalgia, rather than to make a pointed statement. In Hoshi's case, many believe his like reflected pride in his group's hard work during a memorable moment in their career. Hoshi's history of respect toward BTS Longtime SEVENTEEN fans were quick to bring up Hoshi's positive remarks about BTS in the past. He has openly spoken about how the group inspired him, especially during SEVENTEEN's early years. In interviews and variety appearances, Hoshi has credited BTS for paving the way in global K-pop and praised their stage presence. Given this history of admiration, many believe that assuming any ill intent from Hoshi is not only unfair but also inconsistent with his public image and values. Despite the chatter, Hoshi has not commented on the situation, and PLEDIS Entertainment has also remained silent.

Tanushree Dutta breaks down in new videos, claims she's ‘getting harrassed' in her home: ‘People bang door, maids steal, have developed chronic fatigue syndrome'
Tanushree Dutta recently posted a video on her Instagram handle, where she claimed that she has been harassed and troubled in her own home. The Aashiq Banaya Aapne actress came in the limelight when she accused actor Nana Patekar of sexual harassment in 2018, starting the MeToo movement in India. Ever since, she has been complaining about harassment at her home and during her many temple visits. In a new video, the actress broke down as she claimed, 'I am being harassed in my own house. I just called the cops and they have asked me to come to the police station to lodge a proper complaint. I will probably go tomorrow or day after. I am not well. I have been harassed so much in the past five years that I have fallen sick.' The actress shared that these incidents have taken a toll on her. 'I am unable to work. My entire house has been messy. I can't hire maids because they plant them in my house. I have had terrible experience with maids who come in and steal and do other things. People bang the door of my house. I am being troubled, please help me.' A post shared by Tanushree Dutta Miss India Universe (@iamtanushreeduttaofficial) Sharing another video, which had a noisy background, the actress wrote, 'I have also dealt with loud noises like this and other very very loud banging noises above my roof and outside my door almost every day at odd hours since 2020 ! I got tired of complaining to the building management and gave up a few years ago. Now I just live with it and put headphones with mantras to distract my mind and keep my sanity.'

A post shared by Tanushree Dutta Miss India Universe (@iamtanushreeduttaofficial) Previously, talking to SCREEN, Tanushree had claimed that the maids she hired were manipulated into harassing her. 'After I hired a maid, I started to be sick often. I am usually a morning person, but then I started to feel lazy to get out of my bed. I doubted if there was something fishy. I avoided drinking the water at home, and I began to feel okay. The maid was mixing something in my water. Have caught them red-handed calling up someone before and after entering my house.' Over the years, Tanushree has spoken about several incidents of being followed by strangers or harassed at hotels she stayed in during her temple visits, claimed they are linked to her allegations against Nana Patekar. In a 2018 interview with Zoom TV, actress Tanushree Dutta accused Nana Patekar of sexually harassing her on the sets of the 2009 film Horn Ok Pleasss. This began the MeToo movement in India. She had first made the allegations against the actor in 2008 by filing a complaint with the Cine and TV Artistes Association but no action was taken as the case was considered a criminal case. It was again brought up in 2013, but didn't gain attention. The actress has also accused filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri of misbehaviour.

Tanushree Dutta, Who Called For #MeToo In Bollywood, Breaks Down In Video: "I'm Being Harassed At My Own Home"
New Delhi: Tanushree Dutta, who played a whistleblower of the 2018 #MeToo movement in Bollywood, shared a disturbing video on Instagram on Tuesday. In the video, she is seen crying inconsolably and asking for help. She alleged that she has been facing harassment at her home for the last 4-5 years. Tanushree also sought police intervention. What's Happening Tanushree Dutta says in the video, "Guys, I'm being harassed in my own home. I just called the cops. I got worried and called the police. The police came. They asked me to come to the police station to launch a proper complaint. I'm probably going tomorrow or the day after. I'm not well. I've been harassed so much in the last 4-5 years that my health has deteriorated." Tanushree also said that she can't hire maids and her house is a total mess. "I'm not able to do any work. My house is a mess. I can't hire even maids because they planted maids in my house. I had such a bad experience with maids coming in and stealing and doing all kinds of things. I have to do all my work. People come outside my door... I'm being troubled in my own house," she says. "Please, someone help me," she pleads. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Tanushree Dutta Miss India Universe (@iamtanushreeduttaofficial) In the caption of the video, she wrote, "I'm sick and tired of this harassment!! It's been going on since 2018 #metoo. Aaj fed up hokar maine police ko call kiya. Please someone help me! Do something before it's too late" Tanushree And The #MeToo Tanushree accused actor Nana Patekar of misbehaving with her when they were shooting for a special song in 2008 for their film Horn Ok Pleasss. Nana, on the other hand, had denied all the claims. On 13 October 2018, Dutta's advocate Nitin Satpute submitted an application at the Oshiwara police station in Mumbai saying that actor Nana Patekar, choreographer Ganesh Acharya, producer Samee Siddiqui and director Rakesh Sarang be made to undergo narco-analysis, brain mapping and lie detector tests. In June 2019, Patekar was cleared of the sexual harassment charges by the police. The B-Summary report filed by the Oshiwara police station in Mumbai said that the complaint filed by Tanushree could be "malicious" and "out of revenge". Tanushree's sister Ishita Dutta, who's also an actor, back in 2019, had told news agency IANS how her sister coped with the situation after she called out names in the Industry. "Asked if the police are slowing down the investigation, Ishita told IANS in Mumbai: "I don't know about the case, but I know about that day. Had they (police) not reached at that minute, things would have got worse." Referring to a video of Tanushree's car being attacked in 2008, Ishita said: "You must have seen the video. Had it not been the cops, probably the car's windshield would have broken." Tanushree Dutta is known for films like Aashiq Banaya Apne, Dhol, Bhagam Bhag and others. She also won the title of the Femina Miss India Universe 2004.
