In February 2014, Syahrini was allegedly associated in a corruption case of the procurement of medical equipment in Banten province, along with Jennifer Dunn, Catherine Wilson, and Aura Kasih. The main suspect, Tubagus Chaeri Wardana (a.k.a. Wawan), who was prosecuted by Indonesia's Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), was rumored to be not only romantically but also sexually involved with these famous women. The Indonesian media also reported that Wawan, who is the brother of Banten Province's Governor, Ratu Atut Chosiyah, spent the corrupted money on expensive gifts for several female celebrities, including Syahrini. She denied the rumor.
