Ex-hostess Xie Na was ridiculed for congratulation on nephew enrolment

Former Hunan Satellite TV hostess Xie Na said that his nephew was ranked the third out of the thousands of students in the city in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Tsinghua University, China’s top institute of higher learning. Later, his nephew’s academic information was spread on the Internet, showing that he has won many awards in physics, mathematics, composition, Chinese knowledge ability, English knowledge ability and other competitions, which was very excellent. The next day, she blogged back to her nephew’s academic information, saying, “ha ha, you don’t have to guess. My nephew graduated from Deyang foreign language school.” she also revealed that “I heard that he and four of her classmates were admitted to Tsinghua University at the same time.” She said she was very happy for them and wished all the students in the college entrance examination everything they wanted.

But many netizens critized her that it was unacceptalbe for a star like Xie Na to hype up her own family affair and to draw undue attention to a man who is not in the showbiz. Some even are convinced that to get her nephew into a good college, Xie Na, as a public figure, might have done something under the table to help this happen.
