“I want to use this situation to remind all of us of the importance of not jumping to conclusions or cyberbullying anyone based on mere accusations or hearsay stories. As many of you know, I have gone through a very difficult period both emotionally and physically, and I know firsthand how damaging and hurtful it can be to be on the receiving end of false accusations and cyberbullying,” read part of his message.

Further, he urged his fans to be more compassionate, understanding, and respectful towards each other. “I understand that this situation may have been difficult for some of you, and I want to encourage everyone to seek out the facts and to approach this situation with an open mind and a compassionate heart. Let’s use this situation as an opportunity to come together, to learn from each other, and to grow as individuals and as a community.”
