On online community platforms, such as Nate Pann, Noze was accused of "playing the victim" during the concert. They also criticized her for not apologizing upfront regarding her actions, especially the small brands who paid her large sums of money to advertise their products.

Some comments from netizens read:

"If she had cried after acknowledging her mistakes, this could have been better. But her crying makes it seem like she is playing the victim. It is disappointing that she is so pretty and seemed like a good person."

"She is crying like she was wronged when she is the one who wronged so many others."

"You should be apologizing, not crying."

"What about the marketing teams at those small brands you ripped off. They worked hard too."

"Why is she acting like she is the victim here?"

"Why is Noze turning her mistake into a 'we' problem? Is she gaslighting us? You should just apologize. No one else is blaming any of the other dancers."
