"Friction, rub on smooth ground, like the pace of a devil." The divine song " My Skateboard Shoes " became popular in the mainland in 2014, and even set off a wave of imitation. The singer-songwriter Pang Mailang also became famous overnight and entered the public's vision.
However, Pang Mailang's career was not smooth. After "My Skateboard Shoes", he was gradually forgotten because he had no representative work. He was also suspected of suffering from severe schizophrenia and was even sent to a psychiatric hospital for treatment.
Recently, Pang Mailang walked out of the mental hospital and was asked by the media about his condition, saying, "I am not mentally ill, nor schizophrenia . My father is talking nonsense, so how can I be schizophrenia."
Pang Mailang's real name is Pang Mingtao . He was born in Ningqiang County, Hanzhong City, Xianxi Province in 1984. He became famous in the mainland in 2014 for a funny and brainwashed song "My Skateboard Shoes". However, he has no outstanding works since then, but he often received some commercial performances, and his fame gradually "disappeared" as the popularity of the songs decreases.
In addition, some of Pang Mailang's personal actions have also caused many controversies, including rumors that he often breaks appointments when he does not cooperate in business performances, and becomes famous as a big name, does not know his parents, and claims to be a Taiwanese. Therefore, many netizens commented that he is a "jump clown".
The news about Pang Mailang suffering from mental illness comes from a 7-minute video released by his former agent Bai Xiao in March last year. Bai Xiao revealed that Pang Mailang suffers from severe schizophrenia. "He cannot control his body, may commit suicide or harm others, so he is forced to be sent to a mental hospital." Pang Mailang was also "returned" to the public because of being accused of having mental illness.
and in December 2021, after Pang Mailang was discharged from a mental hospital, he performed his first performance in a bar, and has hardly appeared on stage again since then. He also signed a contract with a new company and took the live broadcast route. Although the live broadcast room kept scolding, the head of the new company and Pang Mailang both expressed their disregard.
domestic media "Upstream News" reported on Thursday (29th) that Pang Mailang had been broadcasting for more than half a year after he was discharged from the hospital and had returned to the Sunxilai home from Hangzhou for nearly two months without profits for a long time. When asked about the rumored mental illness outside, Pang Mailang denied, "I am not mentally ill, nor schizophrenia." He also blamed his father for sending him to a mental hospital and making his career mess.
