Brilio.net/en - Teen star Prilly Latuconsina has been quite busy dealing with media scrutiny lately. Back in April, a video of her cursing the family of her male companion Aliando Syarief went viral. Although Latuconsina made an apology and was forgiven by Syariefs family, the two have not been speaking recently.
Since then, Latuconsina has kept a low profile and stayed out of the public eye, that is until recently, when her name was once again plastered across the local entertainment headlines.

Another video clip of Latuconsina went viral, but this time, it briefly showed her in a hotel bed, covered by a blanket with an unknown man, while drinking something from a bottle. In what seems to be a Snapchat clip, the teen actress asked the man to turn off the phone and not post anything on social media. The man replied with two words: Dont care. A caption that translates to breaking the rules further implies that Latuconsinas actions were indeed scandalous.
Mid-way through, the video cuts to another clip that shows Latuconsina laughing uncontrollably, this time with a caption that translates to100 Crazy.

A mushroom cloud of speculation spread among her fans about the identity of the unknown man and just what exactly Latuconsina was doing with him. Some believed he was her secret lover, and that she was drinking alcohol, which would indeed be considered a juicy taboo tabloid story involving a prominent teen idol in the archipelago. Although Latuconsina seems to be wearing a top in the video, netizens fuelled the fire, saying she was most likely naked under the sheets.
After a couple days, the singer finally had enough of the social media nonsense and decided to clear the air. On July 12, she tweeted in rage: I am on vacation. Im indeed sharing the same bed with a man. That man is MY YOUNGER BROTHER. I was drinking. And it was COCA-COLA. The post got 1,700 retweets in a matter of hours and 18,000 likes on Twitter.

But the Twitter shit storm didnt stop there. Latuconsina continued her rant and accused the media of defamation. Stop reporting false news. It is the same as ruining my reputation. She then tweeted, If you want people to read your article, make one that provides values, not one that destroys another persons name.

Judging by a closer look at the video, it seems the claims in Latuconsinas tweets were more than likely true. We can actually see a Coca Cola label on the bottle. Although only shown briefly, the man in the video did indeed look like her younger brother, Raja Latuconsina.
Latuconsina is off the hook this time, and we can all learn one thing from incidents like this. As a celebrity, you can do whatever your heart desires, just be careful about what you post on social media. Unless of course, youre seeking that kind of attention.
