Jacky Cheung Refuses to Speak Mandarin at Macau Concert, Earns Fan Praise

Renowned singer Jacky Cheung held a concert in Macau on the 21st, where during the Talking segment, he introduced his performance partner in Cantonese. Suddenly, someone in the audience shouted for him to speak Mandarin. Cheung responded with a smile, saying, "I'm sorry, I can't speak Mandarin." He then asked the audience in Cantonese, "How many of you speak Cantonese?" prompting cheering from the crowd.

He followed up by addressing his Chinese fans in Mandarin, urging them to "learn some Cantonese," skillfully easing the awkward moment. Throughout the concert, Cheung bravely declined the requests and made a gesture for the audience to think, earning applause from the audience. This incident mirrors his experience two years ago in Hong Kong when he faced a similar request but maintained his Cantonese interactions.

In 2023, singer Eason Chan also encountered a similar situation during his Macau concert, where the audience asked him to speak Mandarin. He continued to converse in Cantonese, responding, "If you can't understand, that's fine!" He later apologized for his straightforward comments.
