In news that has shocked the entertainment industry, the 40-year-old singer, his wife Li Li and more than ten other people were detained by police early on Tuesday. Man shot to fame with his 1996 hit I Understand You All the Time.
Police acting on an anonymous tip raided the VIP room at the popular Coco Banana club in Beijing. Man was there celebrating his wife's birthday with their friends.
Man, his wife and more than 10 other people tested positive for drug use after urine tests were administered, the Beijing News reported. An unnamed drug dealer in Beijing told the China Entertainment Net that the celebrity couple were frequent drug users and bought 2.5 grams of heroin from him on Monday.
