she is totally ruined imo, the hidden cameras in the changing room? were bad enough and now this cow shit happends lol i dont know how she will live in the entertainment circle from now on
LOL, shows how the double standard applies to celebrities... It's one thing that the public knows that they do this and that, it's quite another to actually SEE them doing it. Coming out as a victim really earn her a brownie points or two... /sarcasm What is so strong about her? I reckon she's just a coward letting her company to deal with everything, and it's a joke how the court prosecute those "suspects" without a victim giving statement. She's not ruined, she'll come out clean as another angel because she is just a "helpless" victim wronged by the evil Edison Chen. Funny how everyone can so conveniently push all the blame on someone else to save their idol's grace. Yes yes, call me can't think for myself. That says a whole lot about your so-called judgment seeing that you don't consider any opinion different from your own opinion at all. Edison being dropped from whatever project he was engaging in was irrelevant, Hong Kong media and the show business had shown their ruthlessly conservative side in the past week or so, why is it any surprise that he would be dropped? Even Vanessa Hudgens had a crisis or two with Disney when her scandal was going on, and it was in the so-called open US. I wouldn't expect anything less from the conservative Hong Kong. I am surprised, actually, that Edison was not shot or publicly disowned by every last friend he has already. I never say anything about the morality of those pictures, after all, if those photos are taken with consent (that is, whoever in the photo knows full well that they are being photographed), then there's no such question of morality because it's not dubious. Edison has a fetish of some sort, whatever, it's not a shame. It was his fault to handle the photos carelessly, yet his "fault" stops there. To claim that it's ALL his fault is unfair judgment, because that would imply that those female celebrities are not responsible AT ALL. Now now, given that the photos were not taken against their will, I think it's unfair to say that they are entirely isolated from responsibility. It's funny you talk about the character of a celebrity. I don't think I perceive a celebrity capable of having a "character", it's just an image driven by profit to be earned. Just imagine, if Edison Chen isn't as outrageous as he is, he would just remain a namelessly faded semi-celebrity returning from Canada; if Gillian was not as angelic or virginal (yet "healthily sexy") as required by TWINS, my guess is that she's nothing but a second rated "singer" with lukewarm fame. Anyone who think their public "image" as their real persona need to get a grip, the image is but a trick marketing companies convince consumers to be attached to the goods. Just one question, at age 27, how many have NEVER heard of this thing called sex? Yet it's a taboo to talk about it, because TWINS (and many other celebrities) supposedly have this "healthy image" untainted by sex. Now let's not forget EEG for their notorious "stars as prostitutes" fame/rumour... A cliche comes to mind: we see what we want to believe. You said that Edison deserves what he is getting (probably the tough end of the deal) because you don't like his attitude or whatnot. Well, that's YOUR judgment, and as much as you are entitled to it, I am entitled to mine also, which is this: the oh-so-innocent image of Gillian is so tiresome and illogical to begin with that I think (or even hope) that this incident may have rightfully put her blinded fans into perspective, yet I was wrong, they insisted that their little angelic Gillian is as innocent or even virginal as ever and come out as a victim, placing ALL the blame on Edison (some even outrageously claim that Edison drugged her in the photos? Pluh-ease, according to EEG, the person in the photo isn't even HER). That is the part I am having trouble with. How blinded can a person be? Apparently, pretty blinded, as illustrated by the rabid reaction from the media and netizens. I won't say this is my last post on this whole matter, yet I can safely say that from now on, I would be commenting on the abnormal social phenomenon observed alongside this whole sex scandal. It is quite the sight as such absurdity is rare indeed.
dayuuuummmm you just had to reply with an essay but that was funny i gotta say....anyways oh so you are a twins fan i see....ok no more arguing with you about whether or not it's their fault, cause it's kinda hard to argue with fanatics, it's like arguing with a religious person about their religion, always got something to comeback atcha. and yea who the hell said anything about yumiko, now look whos being mr. hypocrite and just putting random words into people's mouths. alright man it's fine that you hate edison, don't matter but you just gotta chill the fuck out remember your ass started tryin to flame me first so don't even say i called your ass out, just made an observation....And since you seem to judge the celebrities by what they did media wise, don't you think that gillian should've tried to be more constraint for her image. it seems you are not surprise of edison just maintaining his bad boy image. but i mean since gillian is trying to be a role model for kids and stuff (doing that disney thing you mention), shouldn't she be more responsible and try to prevent this. I mean standards should've been harder on her then if she supposedly has a nicer image than edison. You said that we should've judge the celebrities by the media. Well let's take this into a real life perspective. Edison's image is kinda the stand up comedian type of guy in the work world, he could do more explicit things then others for his job, i mean that's kinda part of his job is to do this shit. And gillian is like the teacher figure, if we get something like she cheers for the camera, she'll get her ass fired. So i mean if she wants to maintain that innocent image of her, there should be more restrictions on her than edison am i wrong? Anyways it seems like you think that whoever keeps quiet is more innocent than someone who's willing to discuss the issues...hopefully your "gil" is innocent so you don't have to cry on your pillow everynight...
since when did this thread become so damn heated? damn...freaking essays being written. i don't really understand a lot of of espresso's comments though. wish they could be a bit more clear so i can fully understand his rant.
^don't say "they" bro....i'm just here for the "interesting" conversations...i wouldn't give a shit if edison or gillian jumps off the building tomorrow because they got finger fucked or some shit haha....-rolleyes
kinda retarded to believe that a almost 30 year old is still a virgin....or that in her spare time sits at home watching disney movies... edison is a tool and i would be the first in line to kick him in the face if i could but the guy is not at total fault for this. gill (the perfect angel) is as much to blame for this as him. she went into hiding so she doesn't deserve the blame?...her music company forces her to upkeep this sweeky clean image so it's edison's fault for letting those pics out? dumb and stupid analogy...i don't wanna get involved in this cause is seems like khaotic, nas and hiake can deal with it. but seriously, get some REAL role models. people who change this world or did try to make the world for the better. not freaking cookie cut out hk entertainers or any entertainers for that matter. they don't give a shit about u. they want u to buy their cds, concert tickets and products they endorse so they can roll in the dough. that is the freaking truth. pick up a book and read. learn about historical figures that should actually make u feel like u should do more and learn more. and by the way. gill is a slut. u do shit like this, u are no better then paris hilton. sorry to burst ur bubble but someone had to do it.
I saw Charlene talking to the reporters on youtube. She was having such a hard time convincing them that Gillian was sick since they went straight back to the subject. I've never seem Charlene so troubled and needed Mani to help her end it, cause she always had answers to their questions. So sad...
I go against the media, because I'm not a dimwitted loser like you. I question everything I see and come up with an opinion of my own. I don't just believe everything I read in the news unlike you. You seem to be convinced that Edison is the worse of the worse in the entertainment industry. Whether that is true or not, I do not know. But the only back up you are giving for your statement is the media and his image. Are you kidding me? You have a brain, use it. Question what you read and see. I'm not saying Edison is the nicest guy in the world. I'm saying that your obsessive hate over him is completely unjustified. Same thing with Gillian. Do you expect a woman of her age to not have any sexual encounters of any kind? You really expect her to keep that innocent image? Are you fucking kidding me? You being "shock" of this incident is just another example of how you just take whatever the media feeds you. Question everything, believe nothing. And why isn't everyone given a equal chance? Would you rather others be given more priority? Edison is just as Human as Gillian. And about trying to hard to voice our opinion. Your opinion is the most important thing you can have. without one you're just a dumb little brainwashed fool. NOTE: i think my IQ drops every time I read his replies...
theres alot worse celebs in hk but i wont mention them, edc is just made a dumb move or was intended? haha
well, both side is at fault .. there's no way i would believe gillian, a 30 years old virgin .. that's an old maid if you ask me. gillian reminds so much of britney spear .. how she first started out as the teen idol and said stuff about holding off on sex .. 2-3 years later, bam .. she's a skank .. why do we feel surprised or shocked by this scandal. i do agree that it's a waste of new space when other more important news should get the headlines. the bottom line here is regardless who released the pics even though it is wrong, these celebrities should just come out and admit what they've done; rather than denying it. it's invading their privacy but i am sure they're well aware that the privacy issue is compromised the minute they decided to take the celebrity career route. denying only create more suspicion. it's way too late to try to salvage their reputation; now is the time to ask for forgiveness and move on .. lets this be a lesson rather pushing it to be prank ... if people find out that the scandal is indeed true later, these lives and reputation will be irreversibly tarnished forever including those who have supported them. lying is not ok but lying and get caught is off the wall...
i'm sure guys like jackie chan messed around with girls, but at least he keeps private and domt video tape.
You are my HERO. Period. No, I am just argumentative by nature. Love to go against general public. And I try to salvage whatever IQ points I can no longer afford to lose (after my last ordeal with ANOTHER member -lol) Do you think she'll surprise everyone and pull the damsel in distress trick of fainting publicly? That would be a nail in the coffin for the oh-so-evil Edison -lol I REALLY don't need to know what people do behind closed doors, let this be a lesson to everyone about privacy...
