Let Zhu Zhengting be what he wants to be
or Why you should support and love him
Unfortunately, I’ve already seen comments and tweets that Zhengting wears too much make-up, that his clothes are too feminine (in an offensive manner) and that his behavior is too “sweet” and faked. That’s heteronormativity.
Zhu Zhengting really is out here inspiring a generation of young boys who look up to him to be themselves and to be loving and vulnerable and feminine. Zhengting is always been like this, maybe not so much at the beginning or at Produce 101, but he’s blossomed into himself and a lot of what he does isn’t typically masculine. And it’s awesome.
It’s only my opinion, but I think this might actually be something he’s genuinely interested in, not just the “Idol things”, but he obviously feels insecure mentioning about it without worrying of being made fun of. Zhengting had mentioned before that he would like to try on a girly makeup first thing if he woke up as a girl, but then he presented it as a simple joke. He tries playing it off as a joke because he probably feels he’ll be judged.
Q: With girl makeup who is most attractive?
FCC: Should be Zhengting, I feel he has the historical feels.
ZZT: I don’t know, I haven’t tried. I’ll try it tonight after this is over.
He really is interested in make-up, and the guys even said that it’s impossible to count the amount of cosmetic products in his cosmetic bag.
Zhengting did Zeren and Wenjun’s make-up during Idol Producer. Also Zhou Rui in his interview for GO FASHION said that during practice for PPAP, Zhengting would sneakily do his own make up in the mirror for an hour. Now Rui thinks if he wants to learn make-up his teacher should be Zhu Zhengting.
He also took part in the advertising for the MAC along with the rest of the NEX7. You can see how amazing and incredible Zhengting looks with this dark make-up and how powerful his look becomes.
When the guys had to choose between shopping and video games in interview for Idol Producer, Chengcheng and Justin chose video games, while Zhengting chose shopping.
He wears chokers, amazing piercing, pink/floral shirts and looks beautiful. I believe Zhu Zhengting’s giving young boys the confidence to wear this kind of clothes and it is a wonderful thing.
Zhengting says his dad told him females are living for being loved not for doing house work. Girls can be stubborn, but boys shouldn’t so that is why he learned how to cook because neither his sister nor his mom knew how to cook. So Zhengting and his father do house work. [南都娱乐 magazine]
And you know what my favorite thing about Zhengting is he’s literally the biggest and loudest tease in the world. But when someone starts talking about actual feelings he gets all shy. He is embarrassed literally always when too much attention is paid to him.
He respects, loves and is always grateful to his fans for Pearl Sugars. When he was asked what would be the superpowers he wants to get the most, he said teleportation: “If I can I want teleport to pearl sugar’s side”. Zhengting said that the best moment in Idol producer when his pearl sugars give him his debut.
“I became more excellent than before because of your support, pearl sugar”
Zhengting saying his heart hurts seeing his pearl sugar in the rain without an umbrella and explicit showing his concerns through them.
Q: The most enjoyable blessing you get from fans?
ZZT: When they speak with me is the most enjoyable blessing i get from them
He loves us, so please love and support him the same way. Zhengting makes me want to do more positive things with my own life and be more positive. He’s doing a great job as the kind of idol he wants to be. So let him be what he wants to be.
