Wall Street Journal reports Edison Chen Sex Photos Scandal

Really did not anticipate that Wall Street Journal, one of the most prestigious newspaper on the planet, will also take on the biggest ever scandal now rocking the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Somewhat disppointed is that WSJ didn't run the truth behind Edison Chen Sex Photos Scandal (e.g. what on Earth the role of Albert Yeung in this scandal)

Heartthrob Edison Chen Asks for Decency

By GEOFFREY A. FOWLER and JONATHAN CHENG

HONG KONG -- If Chinese heartthrob Edison Chen really did take 1,300 photos of himself in compromising positions with a dozen or so starlets, it was a bad idea.

Over the past two weeks, someone calling himself "Kira" has posted hundreds of photos online that purport to illustrate the sexual exploits of Mr. Chen, a 27-year-old actor, hip-hop artist, Pepsi pitchman and "newcomer" in People magazine's 2006 Sexiest Man Alive issue. The starlets include some of the biggest draws in Asia, including Gillian Chung, one half of Twins, a squeaky-clean pop duo featured in recent promotions for Hong Kong Disneyland.
