EXO's Lay was allegedly spotted at a hotel with top Chinese actress Zhao Lusi.

According to Chinese media outlets on February 1, paparazzi spotted Lay and Zhao Lusi's cars at a hotel, and the two were also allegedly seen leaving the hotel only 10 minutes apart, sparking dating rumors. Lay's label has denied the rumors, stating, "The dating speculation is just a rumor. Lay is focused on his promotions, and he has no plans to date."

Despite the denial, Lay and Zhao Lusi's dating rumors are rising on Chinese social media platform Weibo's trending searches. The two celebrities are also said to have never collaborated on any projects.

Lay debuted with EXO in 2012, and though he left SM Entertainment in 2022, he remains a member of EXO. Zhao Lusi rose to fame after debuting in 2016, and she's starred in hit Chinese dramas like 'Who Rules the World', 'The Long Ballad', and 'Love Like the Galaxy'.
