Tough-guy action star seen in video clip on public street flanked by more than 20 overbearing security personnelAfter facing angry backlash online, Ip Man star issues apology but asks people to recognise hard work of guards

Hong Kong action movie star Donnie Yen Ji-dan has been accused of employing security guards who ordered people to move out of the way on a public street at a commercial event in China.

“Move aside, move aside, stay on the side. Don’t crowd around,” the security personnel are heard barking in the video.“A pedestrian street belongs to the public. Can a celebrity just take over and scold pedestrians? Isn’t Donnie Yen a respected actor? Why would he enjoy such treatment?” said one online observer.

As public anger over the video grew, Yen issued an apology on his personal Weibo account on September 5.
