Simu Liu is clarifying his criticism of a celebrity look-alike segment aired during this weekend's NBA Celebrity All-Star Game, featuring a side-by-side vantage of him and an audience member who appeared to be of Asian descent.

The Shang-Chi actor initially tweeted on Friday that the segment "wasn't cool," once the big-screen comparison was brought to his attention by a fan's tweet.
