Gillian Chung demands apology from Edison, said she considered suicide

Hong Kong singer Gillian Chung, one of many starlets embroiled in the Edison Chen photo scandal last year, broker her silence on Saturday. In an interview with TVB, she demanded an apology and explanation from Edison, and revealed that she had thought about killing herself when the pictures leaked. Gillian is the second star to be interviewed, after Cecilia Cheung appeared on television last week lambasting Edison for failing to protect or console the women whose lives he'd inadvertently ruined. Interest in the case was recently renewed when Edison appeared in a Canadian court to give testimony against the man who stole the photos. Source: Electric Paper

At the star-studded wedding between Hong Kong celebrity Dickie Cheung and Chinese actress Zhang Qian recently in Manila, Han Hong, the hefty butch Tibetan-born crooner who sports short cropped hair and men's suits and who's long been rumoured to be a lesbian, was seen getting a little emotional during the church service. When asked why, she described herself as "yearning for love" and awestruck at "what a beautiful thing marriage is". The intrepid reporter ventured on to ask Han Hong who her ideal husband was, and the singer said without thinking twice that she's been long full of admiration for Nicholas Tse -- the Hong Kong bad boy whose wife Cecilia Cheung got into a bit of trouble last year. Oh... what about all these rumours of Han Hong getting married swirling about and all the other rumours of her supposed romantic liaison with Andy Hui, the reporter asks. Han Hong dismissed all rumours and said Andy Hui was just like a sworn brother to her, but not exactly her type. We just love how clueless Chinese journalists can get or pretend to be sometimes.

For this week's Shanghaiist Sunday Show, we present to you over a dozen songs that have been submitted to the Olympic committee. Some of the biggest names from across the Chinese music universe have been roped in, including Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Emil Chau, Joey Yung, Han Hong, Nicholas Tse, S.H.E., Zhou Bichang and Wilbur Pan, and even companies like Coca Cola have also jumped onto the bandwagon hoping to up their brand exposure ahead of the Olympics. At the moment, there's still no word on which of these songs will be selected as the Olympic theme song, but clearly, some of these singers (who are barely known outside of China) are going to benefit greatly from the international exposure given to them through these songs.
