- He strongly criticized the social media drama, admitting he felt angry on her behalf.
A minor social media incident has quickly escalated into a major controversy for Thai actress Bow Maylada, who recently faced heavy criticism from both local and international netizens over her Instagram following list, specifically for not following global superstar Lisa. Her boyfriend, actor Alek Theeradetch, decided to address the issue head-on during his appearance at a movie gala premiere event at Parade Square, G floor, One Bangkok, openly admitting his frustration with the entire ordeal.
Alek pointed out that the individuals stirring up this drama only represent a tiny fraction of people, but the issue snowballed once it caught media attention. Standing firmly by his girlfriend, Alek explained that he knows Bow very well and noted that if anyone checks her profile, they will see her following count is massive, ranging between 3,000 and 4,000 accounts. He added that nowadays, she genuinely has no idea who she is following or not following, especially since social media algorithms display posts from various accounts beyond just the ones users intentionally follow.
"I think only a few people are making a big deal out of this, but once it became news, it blew up. To be honest, I know Bow very well. If you look at her follower count on her profile, she follows 3,000 to 4,000 people. She follows so many people that nowadays, she doesn't even know who she is following or not... I think it's complete nonsense. I'll use that exact word because making a drama out of a follow or unfollow is ridiculous. People should look at her actions instead."

The well-known actor further expressed his frustration, admitting that he felt genuinely angry on behalf of his girlfriend. He mentioned that on the very day the controversy broke out, Bow was still dancing and singing along to Lisa's songs, making it difficult for him to comprehend how such a trivial matter could be twisted into online backlash. He urged internet critics to spend their time on other activities instead, noting that excessive negative thinking only robs people of happiness, while questioning why his girlfriend had to unjustifiably suffer through such unwarranted attacks.
Celebrity social media controversies regarding who they follow or unfollow often highlight the intense scrutiny public figures face in the digital age. Fan cultures sometimes place disproportionate weight on minor online metrics rather than real-world actions. Alek's direct defense underscores the emotional toll these baseless internet storms take on celebrities and reminds the public of the fine line between constructive observation and invasive digital policing.
