Edison Chen Checked Into Rehab

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 04:39:42 +0000

While Edison Chen was hiding from his naughty picture scandal in the United States, he was very busy. First Edison went to Boston, where his girlfriend Vincy Yeung is attending a University. Some members of Vincy’s Triad family want Edison dead, but other members are trying to protect Edison, which is another reason he was in Boston. To try to insure his protection from Triad revenge, Edison proposed to Vincy more than four times. Edison also hoped that marriage itself would show that he has changed into a family man, and is no longer a sex maniac womanizer. After discussing the issue of marriage with her family, Vincy turned down Edison’s marriage proposal. Some reports said Edison threatened to slit his wrists if Vincy did not marry him, but those reports have turned out to be false.

Vincy’s family suggested to Edison that he seek treatment for his addiction to sex, so he checked into a rehab center in Utah. After only a few days, several of the other male clients surrounded Edison in a parking lot during a break, and threatened, kicked, and punched him. Edison left immediately after the attack, and traveled to Vancouver, British Columbia to stay with his mother.

Edison then flew to California to meet with movie executives in Hollywood to see about getting work in upcoming movies. During this time Edison started negotiating with police in Hong Kong to avoid prosecution, and for protection, before returning to Hong Kong.

Edison then flew back to Boston to see Vincy one last time before returning to Hong Kong. Vincy was one of the girls who had a large set of pictures in the scandal, but only three of those pictures of Vincy in the shower became public. HG did not post the Vincy pictures, because we weren’t sure of her age at the time of the pictures.

2-11: Charlene Choi sat next to Gillian Chung today in a news conference, which was Gillian’s first public appearance since the Edison Chen scandal hit the news. Gillian apologized. However, Gillian looked like she was having so much fun at the press conference, it’s hard to believe she is sincerely sorry, but rather sorry she was caught, and the whole scandal made public. Meanwhile, Ming Pao, a Hong Kong newspaper, reported that negotiations for Gillian’s pop duo, Twins, to endorse a toothpaste company in mainland China for HK$4 million have fallen through as a result of the scandal. Hong Kong Disneyland pulled from its website a Chinese New Year advertisement featuring Gillian’s band Twins. However, a spokesperson for Disney denied that the withdrawal had anything to do with the scandal and said that the length of the campaign was decided upon long beforehand.

Here’s the Gillian Chung news conference video.

2-11: Edison Chen, the only male celebrity to be implicated by the scandal, will return to Hong Kong to face the media this week, his management confirmed today. Ms Leung, of East Asia Music, said that Edison will arrive back in Hong Kong on Thursday or Friday. She denied that he had left the country to avoid the fallout from the scandal. Edison is supposedly going to help police catch the insider who is releasing the photos. Today Hong Kong authorities caught the ninth suspect without Edison’s help. There have been protests in the streets, and complaints that Edison is just as guilty as the suspects who have been caught. There are also complaints that the people involved are getting a free pass because they are celebrities.

2-11: Miriam Yeung, who made an appearance yesterday at a Chinese New Year event at Harbour City as guest of honour, and is Edison Chen’s godsister, said she had been sending text messages of support, but did not wish to comment on the scandal. As for suggestions that her name will also appear on the list of female celebrities involved in the scandal, Miriam said that she did not want to comment any further and with the scandal bringing down the general morality in society, she did not want to perpetuate the reports any further. When reporters asked if her parents had questioned her about the incident, she said that her mother trusts her completely and she has her own integrity, so after 12 years in the industry, she has no need to explain herself.

2-11: Nat Chan, Bobo Chan’s former boss, said that he had not called her when the scandal hit the news, but said that he was quite worried about her situation. As for suggestions that her engagement had been cancelled as a result of the scandal, Nat refused to comment.

2-10:

Edison Chen has had his advertisements for Manhattan Titanium, a credit card company, pulled, as a result of the ongoing naughty photos scandal, Sing Tao Daily, a Hong Kong newspaper, reported today. The advertising campaign was launched last month.

This is the latest blow for the Hong Kong star, after being cut from an upcoming movie last Tuesday. Columbia Pictures announced that its film Jump, a joint production with Stephen Chow’s company Star Overseas, which was due for release 1 May, had been put back until 1 October. The Hong Kong-made film was to star Edison alongside Kitty Zhang.

Sing Tao Daily estimated that the scandal could cost Edison, who was seen as one of the coolest entertainers in Hong Kong showbiz, HK$10m a year in work and endorsements.

The newspaper reported that Edison earned over HK$2m as an actor last year, including his voiceover work for the Cantonese version of Shrek the Third.

Edison’s reputation has recently been boosted by roles in Hollywood films like The Grudge 2 and the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight.

Sing Tao Daily reported that Edison could demand a HK$400,000 fee for a 20-minute singing performance.

Sponsors of Edison include Pepsi, Levi’s, Jacobs & Co, Samsung and EPS. Sing Tao Daily estimated that the star could demand HK$1m for each endorsement.

A Pepsi spokesperson said that the company would not drop Edison but are constantly monitoring the situation. An EPS spokesperson said the same.

Edison’s company Clot Inc also does a lot of collaborative work with companies like Nike and Coach.

2-10: A source told Oriental Daily News, a Hong Kong newspaper, that Edison Chen, the only male celebrity implicated by the scandal, who reportedly flew to the US to avoid the media commotion, has become depressed, reclusive and unwilling to eat. The source told Hong Kong’s bestselling daily that Edison had been advised by his lawyers not to talk to reporters. The source said that Edison’s family and friends are deeply concerned about the star’s wellbeing. Edison released a recorded message last Monday, but has not appeared in public or in the media since. Legal professionals say Edison himself could be held legally liable since he did not take reasonable and prudent action to protect the naughty pictures on his laptop before turing it over to a technician for repair.

2-9: Jackie Chan was asked about the recent news that pictures of Edison Chen’s current girlfriend Vincy Yeung, have been released, Jackie asked the reporters who Vincy was. When Jackie was told that Vincy is the daughter of Ricky Yeung, brother of EEG boss Albert Yeung, Jackie seemed uncomfortable and wanted to leave. As he left, Jackie said that he will be quite busy in the near future because he will be filming some promotional clips for the Olympic Games equestrian events, that will be held in Hong Kong. He revealed that he will be doing some horse-riding and also going to Athens to help with the delivery of the Olympic flame. Jackie was at an event providing China Snowstorm relief.

2-8: Netizens reported that a video of Edison Chen and Maggie Q involved in intimate acts had surfaced on the web. It was rumoured that the intimate tape showed up on a Hong Kong discussion board, but was swiftly removed by moderators. Even before the scandal broke, Maggie was widely reported in Hong Kong newspapers to have dated Edison a few years ago.

2-6: BoBo Chan was engaged to marry stock market genius, Philip Jin Zi Yao, however, after the scandal hit the news Phillip’s mother ordered him to end his relationship with Bobo. Reports say Bobo cried for many days.

1-31: Stephy Tang was asked if she is worried that she will be next to be dragged into the scandal, she replied that she is not worried, because she has never had naughty pictures taken of her. Stephy also commented that if someone digitally faked her into such photos, she would discuss the matter with her company, and depending on the situation, they would decide what action to take.
