The organiser of a luxury lifestyle and yachting tradeshow attempted to dispel rumours on Thursday that a “romp” involving high-profile celebrities had occurred during the four-day event in the resort town of Sanya.

Rumours and photos began spreading on Wednesday of a “debaucherous party”, involving several high-profile celebrities sometime during the annual Hainan Rendez-Vous 2013 yacht and lifestyle show (March 30- April 2).

“In recent days, false reports have been spread online by a small number of groups and individuals, aimed at maliciously spreading information unrelated to the company,” a statement released by the organiser and published by Sina News said on Thursday.

“Online rumours being spread wildly at the moment labelled ‘Sanya sea and sun feast’ and other related events are false information. Hainan Rendez-Vous has never organised or authorised such activities.”

Several mainland celebrities were allegedly photographed at the parties and the images soon began circulating on the internet. Many of them took to social media to deny the rumours, Sina reported.

Among the rumoured attendees to the show were millionaire Chinese businessman Wang Xiaofei – husband of Taiwanese model-actress Barbie Hsu.
