Chinese pop star and fashion icon Cai Xukun denied on Monday he had pressured a woman to have an abortion, but promised to change his behaviour after being embroiled in a sex scandal that has taken China by storm.

Chinese pop idol Cai Xukun denies wrongdoing in sex scandal

A blogger claimed last week that Cai had a one-night stand with a woman referred to as "Ms C”, alleging that he coerced her into getting an abortion when he found out she was pregnant.

The scandal has exploded in China, where celebrities are held to high moral standards, threatening Cai’s lucrative partnerships with major international brands, including Prada and Tag Heuer.

Music videos featuring Cai were unavailable on state broadcaster CCTV's video streaming app on Monday, and a search for the 24-year-old star's name yielded no results.
