Edison Chen braves death threat to promote movie in Singapore
Monday, Apr 6, 2009 11:58AM / Standard Entry
SINGAPORE: Despite being a "little bit afraid" scandal—hit Asian pop star Edison Chen braved a death threat to appear in public in Singapore on Sunday to promote a movie called "The Sniper".
His appearance came less than a month after a
"If I say I’m not fearful, I would be lying," the 28—year—old told a packed and tightly guarded media conference at a hotel in
"I’m a little afraid but I have to do what needs to be done (to promote the film) so I hope everyone will welcome me and watch my movie," he said, referring to the crime thriller "The Sniper" directed by Hong Kong film director Dante Lam.
About 20 security personnel, including four uniformed private guards armed with handguns, were at the media conference venue.
The actor—singer had been one of
Chen, 28, was wearing a dark shirt with the top button off, and there were no visible signs he was wearing a bullet proof vest, an AFP reporter said.
Hong Kong triads have allegedly offered a 110,000 US dollar reward for the star’s right hand, according to
Chen at the news conference thanked
"I hope to be able to continue (working) in the
While he might have been here to promote his new film, the media’s main attention was on his personal life.
Chen told the media he plans to help his father who recently filed for bankruptcy.
When a Mediacorp reporter asked for more details, Chen got angry and his manager demanded for the earlier part of the one—on—one interview to be deleted in order for the interview to continue.
Chen also said he hopes to get back on track with his acting career and added the latest film was completed about two years ago.
Chen said: "I really put the movie’s destiny and everything in the company’s hands... It’s not a movie I produced, it’s not a movie that I paid for. So, it’s not really in my hands to decide when it releases or not. I’m actually very pleased that the movie is actually being released, because for a long time now, I’ve been wondering what’s going on with this movie."
The sex photos taken by Chen became an Internet sensation when they were posted online, forcing him into early retirement and sending him fleeing to his childhood home of
The pictures showed Chen in compromising positions with various celebrities, including Canto—pop star Gillian Chung, actress Cecilia Cheung and former actress Bobo Chan.
Chen has said the photos had been stored on a personal laptop computer that had gone missing. He believed the release of the photos was due to "some foul play" by employees at a

Interview of Daniel Wu
Tuesday, Mar 31, 2009 9:43AM / Standard Entry
Daniel Wu willing to sacrifice privacy for movies
Daniel Wu seems to have plans for marriage already. The actor, who has been cohabiting with girlfriend Lisa S. for several years, faced constant pestering by the media about their wedding plans. Though their past responses have always been negative, Wu revealed otherwise recently in a TV interview with
In
Last year, Wu was seen secretly meeting Taiwanese actress Kelly Lin and dating Shu Qi. However, he later appeared in public with Lisa S. on a high note, crushing rumors of their relationship crisis.
In the movie, Wu had a scene where he bared his buttocks to the public. When asked if he would be willing to bare it all like Tony Leung in "Lust Caution", Wu said he would need to pick the script and the director; he laughed and added that he will be most willing if the director is Yee Tung-Shing

吴彦祖透露 成龙特别照顾女演员！
香港影星成龙和Daniel吴彦祖今天特地为电影《新宿事件》在本地举行记者招待会。成龙谈吐幽默，让现场气氛轻松不少。除了和媒体分享拍摄电影的过程外，成龙更当起了Daniel的华语老师，当场纠正他的发音。吴彦祖也不甘示弱，被问及成龙大哥在片场对谁最照顾，Daniel透露，“会特别照顾女性演员啊！”
在电影中饰演一名“胆小鬼”的吴彦祖，在介绍自己角色时，无意中把“胆”念成“蛋”。成龙听了，马上忍不住打断Daniel的话，纠正发音错误，让Daniel顿时不知所措，以微笑遮掩尴尬的心情。成龙则表示他有责任改正错误，“他（Daniel）教我英文，我则教他中文。”
记者会上，成龙展示了柔情的一面，看见女主持人站着访问，连忙下台搬了一张椅子给台上的主持人坐。而拍了这么多年电影的成龙，至今已荣升老板地位，但依然对拍摄电影的伙伴非常照顾，直言“照顾人已经习惯很多年了。”但Daniel却认为，成龙对女演员特别照顾，“不过如果她们不在，他就会特别照顾我。”
在好莱坞发展的成龙，至今拍了不少好莱坞电影，其中就包括《Rush Hour》系列。成龙直言在好莱坞拍电影的经验和香港拍摄非常不同。在好莱坞拍摄垃圾场的戏份，用的都是“新鲜”的垃圾，剧组会制造垃圾，把刚买的牛奶倒掉，再把瓶子压扁，就是垃圾了。但在《新宿事件》中，成龙和吴彦祖在垃圾堆中拍摄恐怕就没那么好命，“那是真垃圾，好臭！”
这次和日本幕后工作人员合作，成龙的感触非常深，合作得特别愉快，日本人的礼仪和态度更是让他大开眼界。“他们很有规矩，吃完饭后，就看见一两百个人排队丢垃圾！”
成龙的儿子房祖名自入行以来，都没有机会和父亲一起合作演戏。成龙也表示对此非常抗拒，拒绝和房祖名演对手戏，“怎么演得好呢？我们在演感情戏时，观众一定都会在笑。”
全程在日本拍摄，由名导演尔东森执导的电影《新宿事件》将在4月2日隆重上映，新动网为庆生，今晚会拉大队出席首映礼。
