    Anthony Wong gets into possible assault lawsuit

    Edison Chen's photo scandal has affected lives of Hong Kong celebrities Bobo Chan, Gillian Chung, Cecilia Cheung and her parent-in-laws. Now, veteran actor Anthony Wong is drawn in as well.

    Wong, who was having dinner with his mother and Edison, were provoked by a group of reporters when he lost his temper and hit one of them with a pair of chopsticks, resulting in a possible lawsuit.
    During Chen's recent business trip back to Hong Kong, he met up with his godfather, Wong, for dinner. Following them into the restaurant was a reporter from Apple Daily, who continued recording them on camera from two tables away. With his mood soured by the 'intruder', Wong went forth and hit the reporter on the hand with a pair of chopsticks before leaving the restaurant.
    According to reports, a large crowd of reporters was present at the time and the reporter in question went too close to the veteran actor, resulting in his anger. Wong responded, "The reporter was too close with the camera almost hitting me. He was filming the whole time. This is a private place!"
    Wong's assistant, Maggie, replied, "Anthony's actions were unintentional. His mother was there too. There were about 10 reporters present at that time. The situation was chaotic and it is a natural reflex to block them out with the chopsticks in his hand. It is not surprising if he hit the camera by accident."
    Wong clarified that the chopsticks did not have physical contact with the reporter. "The reporter seemed fine and continued to film so I believe it only hit his camera and not his hands. If it did hit his hands, why didn't he shout or drop his camera?"

    The hk paps are so ridiculous! Fair enough it's their job but at least keep a distance away.
