TMZ posts old couple pic of Kim Chiu and Xian Lim, gets called out by netizens

TMZ has caused a stir after using an old photo of Kim Chiu and Xian Lim in an Instagram roundup of celebrities commemorating Chinese New Year this 2025.

“Lunar New Year is officially underway, meaning it’s time to celebrate the Year of the Snake! Swipe through our gallery to celebrate with the stars, and find more pics at the link in bio,” the post said.

Netizens were surprised to see Kim and Xian in the post, and called out the American entertainment publication in the comments section.

“TMZ is not doing their research. Lol pic 4 is an old photo of a Filipino celebrity couple who broke up years ago. I’m sure their respective partners won’t be happy if they spent CNY 2025 together,” a fan said.

“Hello! @tmz_tv I wanted to kindly point out that the fourth picture might be a bit outdated. The couple featured in it has parted ways a few years ago, and it would be great to remove it to respect their current situations, especially since the guy has found a new partner. They are both artists in the Philippines, so I’m sure they would appreciate your understanding. Thank you!” another supporter added.As of this writing, TMZ has not edited or deleted the post.
