Jefri Nichol's presence on the third day of Pestapora, Sunday (22/9), caught the public's attention. The actor known through the film Dear Nathan came with a woman. Not Maria Theodore, Jefri was seen accompanied by a woman who was suspected to be Neyia Kameron.
In the middle of the festival, Jefri and Neyia looked very close and showed some moments of intimacy. However, their physical contact and romantic attitude sparked criticism from some netizens. Many considered their actions excessive and inappropriate in a public place.
"That's not romantic... but there's no ethics, in a public place showing affection, it's already legal to say it's impolite. What's more, it's not legal... the person watching is embarrassed," commented @reizwahyuni
"Isn't that polite? Don't get used to or taught to behave like that in public," @meilanajikha
"What is romantic, if you live in the city, please call it romantic, but for us who uphold cultural values, that's embarrassing," quipped @ginanjar_dwi_saputra_kalsel
