Kuala Lumpur: Actress Izara Aishah, 34, has strongly refuted claims of arrogance made by an individual on social media. The fan alleged that Aishah denied them and their mother entry into an elevator because the actress was engaged in a photo session.
Aishah took to social media platform Threads to dismiss the accusation, calling it "fitnah" (slander). She questioned the accuser's identity and the basis for such claims, stating, "Who are you?" She added that if she were caught posing for photos, she would typically be embarrassed.
"You're not allowed into the elevator. What slander is this?" Aishah wrote. "Usually, if I'm caught posing for a photo, I'd be shocked and embarrassed and wouldn't know where to put my face, then I'd look at the wall."
The accuser had claimed that Aishah not only blocked them from the elevator but also gave them an uncomfortable look. Aishah countered this by saying that she usually only gives such looks to her crew members. "Don't be arrogant, I know I'm Izara Aishah, but why ask 'who are you' after getting to know me?" she questioned.
