EEG's executive, Mani Fok, expressed that EEG artistes have always been very careful; the female artistes are also known as 'Tape Queens'. Whenever Twins leave HK to work and live in hotels, they are aware that reporters may be there to dig through their trash, so they even pick up their own trash and take it with them. Two nights ago, Mani received the information that reporters had taken photos of Gillian Chung changing. When she told this information to Gillian, Mani was actually confident that it was impossible because the room provided for changing is supposed to completely closed. Being in GuangZhou filming 'Let's Steal Together', Gillian immediately started crying when seeing the photos. She's afraid that the clip will be posted online because she had nothing on when changing, so she's very worried. Mani expressed that she will get legal advice from lawyers and see if it's necessary to call the police in Malaysia. As for Hong Kong, she will definitely send out a legal warning to the tabloid magazine. Mani also hopes that the public will look at this issue seriously because it could really cause a negative impact on the psychological part of an artiste's life.

Towards the issue of Gillian being filmed of changing, EEG gave a serious claim that they are extremely angry with this way of non-permitted filming because ever since this report came out, it has caused great disturbance and pain to Gillian and her family. Hopefully, this will let the public be aware of how important it is to respect a artiste's privacy. They expressed that they encourage for the media to be aware of an artiste's dignity when given the freedom of reporting. Each person should be stopping these unfair, illegal, and negative actions. EEG is asking for legal advice of HK and Malaysia and is going to take legal actions.

Sun Boy'z expressed that this action is against morality, and the media has gone way overboard. Even being male artistes, they still have to be careful. Like Dennis Mak, he was teased of seeing a bird fly by when he was seen to be wearing boxers. Kenny Kwan was also filmed secretly in Malaysia by the media, he was in the gym of the hotel working out, and the magazine reporting him as 'erecting'. When Steven saw the photos of Kenny, he said, "Woah! Did you stuff a pineapple bun in it or something?! It didn't look like that before!" It made Kenny extremely embarassed. With Gillian's incident, Kenny and Steven both feel very bad for her. Expressing regret, Kenny said, "Actually, during the night of the performance, there were only the girls left in there changing. All males left the room, so there was no one else left in there. I really don't know how this happened! It's like we can't avoid it!" Steven continued, "It's definitely against morality! They've gone overboard! They really shouldn't have done that!" Mandy Chiang expressed that it is a great danger for female artistes to be changing, but she feels that this is definitely not Gillian's fault; the fault lies with the person who took the photos. Vincy Chan expressed that she will be more careful when changing, or perhaps changing with all the lights switched would be a good idea.

Also, when Miriam Yeung was filming an MV yesterday, she also heard of Gillian being filmed of changing. She was very shocked and expressed, "Are you joking?! How could there be people sneaking around backstage? This is outrageous! It's very wrong! I know that making a living is hard; each person has a job, but there needs to be ground rules. This is such a bad thing to happen to Gillian. I think this isn't an artiste's fault; it's the society's fault. That's a reason of why we don't even feel comfortable around a camera; it's because some of the media has broken that promise of trust. Posting these photos are even worse than posting those of wardrobe malfunctions. This is overboard! Not to mention, scary! (Are you going to be more careful?) We can't avoid it. When we think of something to avoid it, they'll just figure out another way. It's not like we can buy a platinum lantern to change in! I believe that Gillian's company will deal with it."

That's so sad. I hope Gilian feels better. I think it's so mean to publicize someone's privacy.

OMG .. this is seriously too much ... over the line ..... i think they should do something but it could be hard if it is ald on the net because the net is too big to be stop ....

What does it mean when Dennis was teased of seeing a bird fly by? The HK media once again have indeed gone overboard this time. I feel so bad for Gillian and all HK artistes, but it is not their fault and their is nothing they can do about it. In my opinion, some laws need to be set and enforced. That the only way of threatening HK media and society to prevent these things from happening.

terrible thing ... i cant believe the media could do such a thing.. it's no different than peeking on a non-artist.. it's still illegal. just because it's someone famous doesnt mean you should do it

for some reason im skeptical that something like this happend..but heh who knows. time will tell

feel bad for her reporters are going overboard but then again its bc the public wants to see those too but their fault for making it available. Being a star isnt all glam as we can clearly see now
Hope for her sake that it no gets on the internet bc then it just unstoppable. The culprit should get a big punishment. Wonder how it happened too

omg i can't believe reporters would actually do that..but i hope gillian feels better...they should do something about this cuz this is a big thing not just a small thing

Men, I feel so sorry for Gillian. The media is getting more and more horrible!

Thats distgusting... how can they do something like that. I agree that legal action must be taken. It's horrible.

very ridiculous!! I mean the extent the media/reporters go to to get these photos...what are they worth really?? Showing someone naked and people buying magasines to see someone naked...its not even news or gossip...its just pornography and perverted!!

I felt bad for her. The reporters are really going overboard. They don't care how an artiste feel and sneak pictures so they can have something to write to the media. I think they should control their behavior. I hope she will be ok. Her company is going to have to do something about it to stop reporters from taking pictures of people who are naked.

omg the reporters are so messed up i mean people have their own privacy. if i were gillian i would sue those reporters.. well i hope she`ll cheer up.

OMG its the Carina Lau incident all over again. I mean i know its a job but the consequences of doing sumthing like this is huge.

Some people just go too far sometimes. I mean, I know the media over there is bad, but damn! Sneaking into someone's dressing room to take pictures! That going to far.

Reporters have gone overboard. This is intruding her privacy! It's very very upsetting. The company deserves to be sued until they shut down for publishing such personal pictures.

omg!! poor gillian! how mean.... i mean... ok even takin photos of some1 without dem knowin is mean.. buh wen they're changin?!!?!? that's jus horrible!!

feel betta gillian =]] and i'm sure justice will prevail

dude, people these days, gillian's gonna be in big trouble for a while with smthing breaking out like this. but support ah gill and sa forevr!

I feel sorry for her!!The reporters are insane!!!..

The reporter and media are getting more scarier and pushing the limits. Everyone has their own privacy and they do not have the right to film or tape someone who is changing. That is so wrong, poor Gillian! I hope she feel better.

That's horrbile. OMG I hope Gillian is ok, what is up with the reporters. Idiots, yes people know that they need to make money but this is not the way. I'm glad EEG is taking legal actions

That's horrbile. OMG I hope Gillian is ok, what is up with the reporters. Idiots, yes people know that they need to make money but this is not the way. I'm gld EEG is taking legal actions

Poor Gillian!! The media is trully out of control!!! People need to start taking legal action on them or else they won't see this as a wrong doing and how this may effect not only the ones attacked, but also their family and friends on a physical and emotional level!!!
