The Edison Chen sex scandal rages on with more pictures released by mystery man

For Part 1 of this story, click HERE.

The Edison Chen sex scandal rages on with more pictures released by mystery manShanghaiist is hyperventilating. Just when we thought the worst was over, a new set of pics have surfaced. After looking through the pictures, we had to take a while to recover from the massive nasal haemorrhage we suffered before we could calm down ourselves enough to put this story together (oh how very self-sacrificial!).

The surfacing of the new pictures are an embarrassment to the Hong Kong police, who with the eight arrests they have made over the last few days claimed that they have already come down to the source of the pictures. To prevent the pictures from spreading further, the police have also highlighted to the public that it is an offence to publish, post or pass on the pictures. In the meanwhile, though, the pictures have been brazenly published on online forums and websites on the mainland (don't ask us for links!). If you conduct a Baidu search for Edison Chen's Chinese name "陈冠希", Baidu will even help you find what you are looking for by suggesting other search terms at the bottom of the page:
The Edison Chen sex scandal rages on with more pictures released by mystery man
[Note: These search terms include "Edison Chen Sex-Photo-Gate", "Edison Chen Gillian Chung Sex Pictures Original" and "Edison Chen Pictures Download"... Thanks Baidu!]

In particular, a mystery man named "Kira" continues to lurk out there. He has leaked about 300 pictures and has promised 600 more as well as a video. This is in line with the planned and phased roll-out of the pictures we told you about earlier. (Note: "Kira" is a character in the Japanese manga series Death Note.) Unperturbed by the intimidation tactics of the police, "Kira" has basically issued a challenge to the police to "catch me if you can" and posted this note:

Rumor: video will coming out soon, and also the 4th pic is fake
32 mins video of E & G.
Coming out soon.
believe it or not.
I am not in hk , so i dun give a sh*t.
the 4th pic is fake, she is a Jap AV
here u are
the video clip is in media’’s hands,
the co-worker alrdy got the copies,
cannot get thu it now, be patient just wait

At the moment, the pictures are spreading like wildfire through the Chinese internet and blogosphere and there is no turning the tide. The most recent pictures released have implicated two other women, and people are speculating they are Yu Chiu (赵颂茹) and a Japanese porn star. Here are some of the latest pics released by "Kira":

According to the Wikipedia entry on the scandal, the police in Hong Kong have gone so far as to enlist the assistance of Interpol, but their actions have "raised concerns about violation of human rights and the relationship with powerful media tycoons". Also:

Commissioner of Police Tang King Shing has warned on radio that anyone with the pictures on their computer, even without any record of distributing them, are in breach of the law. The Commissioner's remarks, criticised as irresponsible, caused outrage among the Hong Kong public, who questioned the police's selectiveness and heavy-handedness in this case, as compared with previous cases of pornography distribution on the internet. Lawmaker "Long Hair" Leung Kwok Hung and about two dozen people protested outside police headquarters in Wan Chai, accusing the police of sowing confusion and creating an atmosphere of terror among netizens, and urged Commissioner Tang to clarify whether or not keeping the pictures violated the law.
Eventually, the police clarified that "people who had only transferred the obscene picture files to friends had not violated the law, but those who had posted them to internet web pages would be in breach of the law", causing law-fearing netizens to start sending the pictures to each other by email or MSN, or turn to mainland China sites.

In the fallout:

What other stars have said:

  • Jay Chou (周杰伦), who has had his face superimposed on a nude body once, joked, "Luckily he has a good figure". Jay is now in Singapore to promote his latest movie Kung Fu Dunk.
  • Chinese megastar Gong Li (鞏俐) says, "Young people may be very impulsive but there is no point blaming them. If we can embrace them with wider arms, they will learn from their mistakes."
  • Veteran Hong Kong actress Lisa Wang (汪明荃) says, "If you don't want others to see you naked, then don't take such pics!"
  • Rumours have surfaced that Cecilia Cheung has sent Edison Chen a lawyer's letter seeking compension for his negligence in handling the pictures. The actress has vehemently denied the veracity of the rumours.

The scandal has been the source of countless jokes in Hong Kong:

Left: Edison Chen has been labelled a hypocrite and caricatured as the terrorist Osama Bin Laden by Hong Kong netizens.
Centre: Gillian Chung wants you to try Edison Chen sausages!
Right: Edison Chen endorses Gillian Chung abalone just in time for the Chinese New Year!

There are similarities between the girl in the latest set of released pictures and a Japanese porn star, although no name has yet surfaced:

The scandal is now splashed across the front page of practically all the gossip magazines in Hong Kong:

The Ultimate PC & Mac store at 50 Stanley Street, Central, has scrambled to put up a sign dissociating itself from the scandal, and clarifying that it is another Mac store at the same address that is in the news. Someone had the good humour to scribble on the poster, "No, we only sell pirated software!"

Hong Kong police say the released pictures have opened a whole can of worms and they are now investigating to see if the female stars consented to having their pictures/videos taken and if they were under the influence of alcohol or drugs:

Hong Kong netizens are also unimpressed with Gillian Chung who was embroiled in a similar scandal in October 2004. After the scandal erupted, she had spoken to the media in tears saying she would not be so stupid to allow any other man to take nude pictures of her. Looks like history has repeated itself.

Celeb fucks another celeb. Film at ten.

 

Edison, I am sorry that you got caught going down on a woman who is groomed like a goat from the waist down. It's just embarrassing, no matter how famous she is. Really, ladies, shaving that region is mandatory these days. Not too many people go for the barnyard (au naturale) look anymore.

 

This is really fantastic in so many ways. You might as well just publish the links, especially since you are pumping the shit out of this story.

 

BORING

No one cares about this, please stop writing about it for the sake of it.

 

Sorry - you are not "writing about it" you are just showing some links and pics as an excuse to take up space - please stop

 

GuestGuess: And you're a prick. Go start your own blog.

 

I'm guessing from the 44 people who recommended the first article and the 12 so far on the second one that guessguess is

about folks finding this boring. Sorry killer.

 

Does anyone have the new photos? My e-mail address is Empire06@netzero.com
Thanks,
VC

 

more chinese new year fun!!

ta da.... Hong Kong... 你們的明星...haha

kira is great!!!

who is gong li to speak? everyone knows how her career started...very similar to bobo in the picture...open wide....

 

Having ... er ... stumbled upon one or two of the photographs relating to the Edison Chen scandal while surfing the internet, I must admit to being shocked and outraged.

The quality of the home furnishings in said pictures can only be described as mediocre, at best.

Are these young stars and starlets not rich beyond our wildest dreams?

They have no excuse, therefore, for making such lacklustre homeware choices. (Though the rug was impressive.)

 

You're totally spot-on with your observation gazjoe. That was exactly what went through my head.

 

It looks like Gillian has some serious thrush on her tongue.

 

@callipers,

It's called Candida - an acute yeast infection. You should be glad it didn't take over her "voohoo". Yet.

 

http://www.batgwa.com/story.php?id=585

batgwa.com are reporting that a 'showbiz insider' may be spreading the photos

 

I love the way that it is being reported as a "SCANDAL." What they did is NORMAL!

The only thing that is scandalous is that someone is spreading the pictures.

 

@callipers,

There'd be no such scandal if the dumb girls didn't spread their legs so go easy on the picture spreaders.

 

@MeSoHoly

Hey! Awesome! That's really stupid!

 

by the way, it is interesting that Edison (the guy) escapes being called "dumb" but the girls somehow do not.

 

It's just a common sense that if pictures are taken when you're being screwed, they'll end up somewhere. Guys will do whatever they do regardless but it's up to the girl to protect herself. Don't all parents tell their children not to go with the strangers or Santa Clause doesn't have a 3rd leg?

 

It may just be "common sense," but you're wrong. The only pics that "end up somewhere" are the ones that are released, exposed, lost, or whatever. I never had a problem with it, so give it a shot yourself and stop pretending that you know what you're talking about, because you don't, punk.

 

This obviously will help everyone's career. Why are the police involved? This is just a fake scandal just for PR's sake, and during Spring Festival -- no accident. Sure it's a big muff, but would disagree that shaving is mandatory, unless you are truly shallow.

 

No, I'm not shallow but a true believer in personal hygiene. Hair collects a lot of bacteria. But also, yeah, when a girl has significant hair where it shouldn't be (that is, anywhere below her ears), it needs to be razed, plucked, waxed, lasered, epilated, etc.

 

Well, not to be hypercritical, it seems that Edison isn't exactly clean shaven either. But I really do believe that hair is the least of all the concerns regarding these pictures.

Edison's statement sounds feigned. Why doesn't he address his role in the photos being released? Twatwaffles like him really lack common sense and could not care less about the lives of others. I can't believe all these women are willing to get with him.

It's been rumored that Gillian tried to commit suicide after the pictures were released. I mean, girls, get your shit and lawyers together and sue the fuck out of these people for invading your privacy and then sue Edison for being a douche who objectified your sexuality. What are these women afraid of? Their careers? The photos are already out there, it's about time they act to stand up for themselves and their dignity.

why are you guys so concern about the hair part?
I mean its not really a big deal yea.Unless you are a sex maniac,or else I think not all girls shave.Not all girls are that hairy.Since I am a biology major,I would love to educate you guys about the pubic hair.It is there for a reason,the pubic hair is supposed to protect your sentitive uterus.It is to keep warm, its not good for girls to have no pubic hair at all.It sometimes to a certain extent will affect your fertility.Unless you are a slut and always sleep around with guys,you might want to shave as according to your suggestion.Thus, dont act like you are so smart,following the norm blindly like you have no scientific knowledge at all.Or are you trying to prove you are dumb with the brain of a peanut?Maybe you are trying to tell the world you do SHAVE.hah!I dont know.Anyways,its her body we are talking about.Who cares what you say?

 

I am sorry to be rude. I just cant stand girls who are actually dumb but acting like a genius.

 

I agree with you sheer pink.
Those hairs are there for a reason. Some of them is to protect the skin during intercourse.
Also it inhibits unique smells that stimulate the opposite sex during mating.

Anyways.... personally I prefer woman with normal amount of hair. Preferrably trimmed but not fully shaven :)

Oh... and Edison Chen's is an idiot :)
I feel sorry for those girls. I'm sure everyone has their own fetishes... but man... saving it on your laptop and trusting it to someone to fix it.... and u're not just a nobody... u're a mega star. for fk sake man use some common sense >_

 

Coming from a Hong Kong legal community side:

Several of our colleagues here were working and preparing for the legal cases for these people and it is ridiculous for the people here to not even see the full evidences and to support the list of prostituting Gillian, Bobo, Cecilia, etc. entertainment girls. What Edison was trying to tell everyone and he had said this in front of many of the guys and the entertainment community – that these women are not worth to be married, not worth to be a motherhood, and that he had keep telling the HK party goers’ communities as such endless times on how idiotic the husbands to take these women whom he knew so well on how low they are on performing endless cheating and intercoursing acts for him whenever he asked to and at any occasion behind all of their husband, boyfriend, family, and children. It is not a matter of whether these prostitutes in the form of movie star/singer idols had a choice or not to play with her own body orgnans and smilingly slutting the moan of cheating acts with Edison as their human right, it is the immoral and pure unethical to the blood of these prostitutes that Edison wanted the world to see these ladies in a reality of light – that they are really truly lower than prostitutes who worked to feed their family while these Gillian, Bobo, Cecilia, etc. don’t have to but still do it for free whenever Edison asked for. Just go asked the clubs workers that Edison visited regularly in HK, literally all of them will tell you how Edison bragged but showed off how he can literally call up anytime upon Gillian, Bobo, Cecilia, and etc. list of girls in the pictures to give free intercourses and dirty acts on him despite whatever engagement, fiancé, boyfriend, husband, children these women already committed to. Gillian cheating around her own fiancé endless times for free (just wait till you guys see the next remaining video from HK community highlighting Edison intercoursing while asking Gillian if it is ok for her fiancé to take this and she just answered so what nobody will know…..), Bobo cheatings around her husband (the second batch of videos coming out in the future will show Bobo intercoursing with Edison even with her pregnancy, Edison asked if such many free intercoursings behind her husband back can affect the baby in the stomack or not, but Bobo told him to shut up while riding on me…..by the way, this second set of video was paid heavily by her late husband family insider to see thus why the divorced immediatly, not the simple pictures from the first set released to public – those are nothing), and worse with Cecilia (Nic already seen the second batch of videos from insider leak showing Edison getting free intercoursings while even asking Cecilia if Nic and Lucas her son will mind it, but Cecilia just said they won’t know it and keep moaning while riding on Edison…..). There are many other girls in the remaining picture/videos that the HK police didn’t dare to show yet because they really truly put many many movie star/singers intercousing with Edison endless times in actual comments of how dirty they were and unethical they are. These are truly worst than prostitute acts to even said as a human right or animal right. Many HK communities are actually thanking Edison for exposing how low these women are, and reminding them that if they ever choose to marry any of these dirts of people, they are accepting the fact that if they got a movie start/singer wives, they most likely have been just giving free intercousing numbers to any pretty face man on earth think just like these list of girls that no one will know and who cares even if I am pregnant, engaged, married, or have a son – a so what attitude while the public fans worshipping them as idol. And they will continue cheating with your brother, relatives, best friends, and colleagues when they got a chance. Tell us how any decent loving husband can take such acts of immorality in the blood any more than now (unless he just want a temporary satisfactions or a complete idiotic to wearing the biggest Green Hat of Humiliation of Mankind for life). Even we as a lawyer that see heavy incidents in our career, can’t even stand such unethical level of these girls.

 

isnt it awkward on how we see ladies spreading just like that? well i guess it all leads to lust and enjoyment. but if you notice most of the ladies there are high on either drugs or alcohol. so edison must have had his ways to get these ladies to do those acts.
