Comments were instantly divided, many criticized her for sharing a post of this nature right after the disaster while others came to her defense as the star clearly wasn’t being malicious or had bad intentions with the post.

Shortly after Yamada quickly followed up with a post offering her support. At the time of her selfie post she wasn’t even aware that the Earthquake happened, she urged everyone to in the area to please be careful and hoped that there was no further damage.

Mini debates are still going on in the comment section, but the majority of them are in defense for Yamada referring to the entire situation as bad timing.
