So fake and didnt even say sorry, Cecilia Cheung scolded that Edison Chen is a hypocrite

Last year, after the ‘in-bed incident’, Cecilia Cheung, who was silent for a year, accepted an exclusive interview for Entertainment News Channel with the host, Albert Au, she disclosed the stress and the emotional path she had to take after the incident was exposed. During the interview, Cecilia cried a few times, and pointed out that the hurt came solely from Edison Chen, and scolded that he was a hypocrite and liar!

A: Albert, C: Cecilia

A: For this incident, you’re the first person to speak up; a lot of people think you’re brave. You have been silent for over a year, why did you speak up today?

C: Actually this incident happened a few years ago, my actions weren’t that good too, thus I chose to keep quiet, because every incident was a mistake, but I didn’t know whether this was the best way to keep accept, because this incident was too severe! Why would I keep quiet? Because I felt ashamed, I don’t know how to face the public, but because of this, I learned how to be responsible for my mistake. Thus, this time I chose not to avoid, because I made myself a judge, and at the same time I made myself a criminal, and I myself sentenced myself to jail, I don’t dare to answer to the public, cause I’m scared I’ll invite trouble, but because I want to admit my mistake, thus there’s a bomb inside my heart! I am very scared, I don’t know how to tell people how scared I am, this is my privacy, Edison promised that he won’t let a 3rd party see, so I tell myself it’s okay, because he promised that he won’t let anyone see.


‘I thought I’ll go crazy’

After I received news, and the next day, the whole of Hong Kong was watching those photos, I was really scared! I remembered that Lucas was about seven, eight months old, I was very very scared! I wanted to rush into the room and carry my son, but I haven’t even carried him, I already felt so scared, it’s a feeling that’s hard to tell others! (At that point, Cecilia, who was trying to hold back her tears, couldn’t help it but cried, and was emotionally stressed!) I rushed into the room and carried my son, and then my legs felt like jelly! (Tried hard to control her tears again) My knees were so low that I lost my balance! I carried my 7-month old son, and told myself, I looked at my son, I’m an adult, and if I don’t have the courage to stand up, what would happen to my son? He’s a helpless child, a 7 to 8 months old helpless child! Thus I told myself, no, I need to stand up, at first I thought I would go crazy, but I don’t think I will now.

After the incident, the newspaper also published the news, and I still need to film advertisement, the company and client both thought that I wont attend, but I filmed, (emphasizing) it was really very difficult! (Cried again, and then calm herself down before continuing talking, with tears in the eyes!) I told myself I have to stand up! I did the wrong thing thus I have to be punished, how can I don’t film when my emotions aren’t good? I continued filming (stammering), I knew that I have to be responsible for all my actions, after filming the advertisement and it’s broadcast, the media would write about me, and I’m prepared for it. But one has to be responsible for her own actions! I knew that I was in the wrong, but my friends, my family and my manager all told me not to blame myself and they said: “You’re a victim, it’s none of your business, you don’t have to think about it, frankly speaking, a lot of normal people are doing that, just because you’re a public figure, thus you’re a victim!” But I told everyone I wasn’t a victim. Yes! Maybe a lot of people did those things before, but this incident could be controlled by me! How cant I denied this, I am a public figure, I am an idol, what I did would affect the people who idolized me, thus I told the people around me, don’t say I am a victim, I am not a victim, but I don’t blame anyone, even if the people around me are going to talk about Edison, but I haven’t said a word!


‘I must be responsible’

This time, I can’t push the blames to others again, I’ve been silent for a year, actually my character is that I’m not afraid of anything, thus I chose to tell myself, I need to be punished, and I must faced the incident and be responsible! I didn’t tell any reporters or tell anyone, is because I don’t want to get their pity, but because my photos were exposed, thus I really felt terrible! I feel terrible because I’m a woman. (Controlled her tears and continue talking) I admitted because of my son, I want to be able to tell my son, Mummy did the wrong thing, but it’s over, but I’m also lucky, my daddy and mummy taught me a lot! (Teary eyes!) I must admit if I’m in the wrong, even if I’ll get criticized! Thus I chose to admit this time, if you’re in the wrong you have to admit, even if you’ll get criticized! I did not admit to the truth when my pictures were released, is because for a mum to do such a thing, I don’t know whether it’ll affect my son, and I still have to look at the reactions of the public, but because I’m punishing myself, thus I won’t choose to avoid. Maybe some people would feel that I’m pathetic, or people would feel that I’m doing this to get attention, different people have different views, but I’ll accept all, if I want to completely admit my mistake, I have to learn to accept everything.


Chose to admit after Edison disclosed on the Court

A: Why did you choose to admit after Edison gave his statement in Court in Canada?

C: At first I didn’t think I’ll stand up and admit, because I haven’t finished my sentence in jail, and was careful of my behaviour. But because I saw on the newspaper that he disclosed on the Court, thus I felt that I need to stand up, just like what Edison said, that he wished that all the victims would go back to a healthy and happy person, thus I chose to stand up and talk, and I chose today! (Frustrated) When I saw on the newspaper titled ‘They’ve suffered enough!’ Edison actually said on the Court that ‘they have suffered enough’. I felt that I haven suffered enough! (Determined look) If I haven’t suffered this hurt before, I won’t be responsible for my actions! But today I really have suffered enough, just like what Edison said, all the victims have suffered enough! I had enough of you! The person who gave me the hurt was you, and then you wished that I’m healthy, but the person who hurt me and the media, is you! I had enough of you! You even dare to answer reporters outside the court, and helped me stand up! (Frustrated) I felt that you’re a hypocrite, you actually say that there’s a need to protect the victims, and asked me to stand up, and he actually dared to say: “Whether I made a comeback is not important, what’s important is that the victims make a comeback, stand up and enjoy a healthy life!” He actually dared to lie, I always thought that he believed in the lord and won’t lie, but after reading the newspaper I was disappointed! He actually dared to say he believed and depended in the lord, then lied, WA! (Roll eyes and look at the sky) I’m totally disappointed, I want to tell Edison, instead of hiding under Jesus, why not admit everything to the media!


‘He actually hanged up’

A: This incident happened a year ago, you chose to be quiet for a year, why admit today?

C: This incident happened a year ago, he held a press conference saying he’ll protect the victims, but he did not! I felt that he should just say he’ll compensate the victims (Cold laugh), but did he protect me, the photos are still circulating on the internet, he did not use any ways to stop it, how can I be happy? Why would he stand up? (Teary eyes) 1. He didn’t do anything at all; 2. I can only use a few words to describe: he’s a liar (agitated)! After the incident happened, whatever he said, it was for the public to hear!

C: My manager knew that he would hold a press conference to answer to everything, thus she dialed and asked him how it’s going? And wanted him to give an answer! Because he knew that there’s nothing he can do, but he said: “I’m having a meeting and settling this, it’ll be very fast!” (Imitating Edison) Ah! The reception is bad! I’m still in a state of shock, I’ll call you back, and then he hanged up. After that, I can’t get him anymore, if he was genuinely concerned about protecting the victims, what he should do is at least give a private call and explain, but he didn’t! I am representing all the victims and stand up and tell the public, and also tell him, you did not even answer to your mistake even now, isn’t it better if you didn’t speak up?

A: How much responsibility do you think Edison should be held for?

C: It can only be gauge my each of us, for example, myself, I felt that I learn a lesson, and learned how to faced my problem, my lost, my pride……but I don’t dare to ask him to face it! The only thing I can do is to tell myself that it’s alright if he won’t stand up, but he shouldn’t promised that he would protect those artist, those victims! You said I’m a victim (Asking in a questioning kind of tone), but it’s most important how you see others, I am not happy nor healthy, and don’t have the ability to stand up……I am not that fortunate, he can go overseas, he can sign a singer under him and then be a manager, the others are also not that fortunate, the female artist are not that fortunate! I don’t dare to ask him so be responsible, I mean I want to admit to my own mistake, and then change myself and use my heart to accept and be responsible for these mistakes.

A: Those photos were released during Chinese New Year, so did you go visiting?

C: Wa! It got so bad……(Scream), I have friends coming to visit, and I felt terrible, and my friends tried to act normal in front of me, which made me feel worse……(Stammering), I chose this path, but I felt terrible for my friends when tried to act normal in front of me! Wa! Wa! That moment was terrible but I’m ok, I’m glad that I have such supportive friends!


‘Mother-in-law accompanied her through the rainy days’

A: Have you ever collapsed?

C: I flew to Thailand a few times, because Nicholas was filming there, and I carried Lucas, (Use tissue to wipe her tears), and I felt my heart pumping loudly! I knew that there were a lot of reporters at the airport, and I don’t know whether I felt embarrassed or scared, and screamed when I reached home, because I felt that I’ve affected my family and the Tse Family with my own fault! But I’m touched and very happy, because my whole family supported me, and we only shouted for 2 to 3 times, but what I was upset about, was that this incident caused my seniors, and those elderly to worry. When the photos were out on the first day, my Father-in-law came over, he didn’t say anything, and pretended to amuse Lucas, but he wanted to give me the message that, if there’s any problem, we’ll face it as a family! Just like my Mother-in-law, it’s hard to pin-point the blame for this kind of thing, she just gave me a porcelain figurine, it shows 2 figures on a lotus leaf and there were carving saying “Accompanying through the rainy days’, this figurine was her message to me. My husband was even more supportive, he didn’t ask anything, but said: “It’s okay! Lao Po, it’s okay, there’s still me to support!” My parents were also very supportive, I did not screamed for myself because of this incident, but I screamed for my mother! (There’re somethings that are hard to say) My mother called me, I wanted to tell her the good news but not the bad news, because I felt that I was the one who made the mistake, and I knew I’ll disappoint my mother, but my mother said: “Daughter, don’t face it yourself, I’m okay. If I can shield you, I will shield you!” I was holding on until I couldn’t take it, I told her that I shouted a few times at Lucas, and didn’t know that a woman can be as bad luck as this, and my mother told me a story, (Cried bitterly) thus I told myself that I must be even braver, and faced my own mistakes!

A: Since this incident, you haven’t seen Edison, do you have any messages for him?

C: (Paused) Return me some of my pride and respect for a woman, for this incident, a lot of woman suffered, what I wished was that he would keep the promised he made a year ago, and protect us, and not lying and acting benevolent like now! He said one thing and did another thing, is all just to get the forgiveness of the public, but continued to hurt the victims, media didn’t hurt me, and I want to answer to my own mistake. Mr Edison Chen, I didn’t blame him at all, but what I want to is that……(Agitated), he would learn to respect females, (Cried and plead) I also had a mother, it’s not that only he had his mother to accompany him to the Court, I also have parents!


It was known that Cecilia would be having an interview, thus the host asked about her relationship with Nicholas, and Cecilia said: “I can’t find a better husband!” Other than that, Edison, who was in Singapore, responded to Cecilia’s crying and scolding him, and he said: “It’s my fault from the start till the end; I knew that she was having a lot of stress, if she’ll feel better after scolding me, I am willing to be responsible for everything.”


After Edison had his statements in the Court for the second time, while having an interview outside the Court, he told the media:

I hope that all the victims can stand up.

It’s not important whether I made a comeback, their Well-being is more important.

I wished that they would be healthy and happy.

They have suffered enough.

i actually applaud her for her statement, She gives a full explanation about the event and her feeling and it seems more believable. I liked how she is sincere about what happen and owns up to it, besides telling people she is young and naive and then thanks everyone for supporting her.

she's a tough girl. i'm sure her family and friends will always be there for her. there's nothing to be ashamed of. what happened between her and edison happens between all couples, but like she said she's a public figure and she trusted edison back then. she's learned her mistakes. i hope she comes back and takes on a movie or two, i'm really a fan of her acting.

I can't believe Cecilia is finally speaking out after all this time. I wonder what made her decide to finally talk. The interview sounds really emotional. I wonder how the viewers/readers will perceive it.

There is a different between Cecilia’s recent interview and Gillian’s speech from last year. Cecilia spoke directly to a host with less than four cameras; whereas, Gillian was faced with hundreds of reporters / flickering cameras light, and no one was asking her question to help her maintain a longer speech. And there’s a time different, Cecilia had a year to prepare and collect her feeling and view for this interview; whereas, Gillian only had a few days / weeks to plan out what to say. Adding on a comfortable environment, Cecilia had more room to relax and recollect herself if she tears down. With bad management, a whole bunch of people, with little breathing space, surrounded Gillian. Anxiety would sure make her warped up her speech fast.


All in all, Cecilia’s brave to talk about her view and feeling toward this experience / incident.

I think its a bit unfair for her to keep saying that she does not blame Edison but really she is. He never did reveal any names of the female artist until he had to infront of the court.

I think it was impressive that she admits to taking the picture and what's the big deal with it. I don't get why she would say she made a mistake. What was the mistake? taking nude pictures? She choose to take pictures so why say it is a incorrect?

This news is getting really old and I think people should drop the topic.

I don't know who to believe, but it's good she's getting it all out there.
It's both of their faults, no point in blaming others.

If i was edison and saw this interview, i would be hurted. He's a vicitm too. Besides, is it really that big of deal? She also contradicts by saying she's responsible for her own actions, but totally says BS about Edison afterwards. She also mentions Edison has never called to apologize personally. You can tell he's sooo self centered cuz that's probably the first decent thing to do.

I understand why Ceci is mad at Edison for what he had stated, "I will protect these girls."

But she said he never did. He didn't do sh*t. He just sat there and let stuff happen to them.

I understand why she was mad; mad that he made a promise, but he didn't necessarily carry out that promise. And he's using these false claims to get more positive publicity, and from the looks of it, he's succeeding too. She wants him to stop painting a false rosy-pic of himself. She seems even a little jealous and indignant that he managed to shed his bad image when all of them still have to suffer from it. He's not right, but she wasn't all right either.

But what was he to do? He was also a victim, in a sense. What can he do? Stop the presses from printing these photos? It's true that he's trying to save his behind by stating these promises, but in reality, what can he do?

I've never liked cecilia much, but this interview makes me feels differently. I applaud her for standing out and actually representing how all the victims really feel, and calling out edison on his hypocritical ways. Which is why, I have never been against gillian's comeback, regardless of how "naive" she thinks she was, but edison's comeback? please get him off the screen. As we can see in cecilia's interview, edison had never helped any of the victims in anyway, and had in fact, ignored them, and hung up on them. and yet he's saying all that crap in front of the media? He's really an insincere person, after hiding in canada or usa for a year, and not helping any of the victims, he decided to make his come back?

.......its difficult to compare if gillians or cecelia's talk is more sincere or what.. they were in different situations, during the event gillian was still an upcoming star and signed to eeg, she had no choice but to make her speech right away, whereas cecelia was already married and no matter what happens, she can afford to stay silent. If cecelia never made a speech of any sort, no one will blame her, on the other hand, if gillian didnt make a speech people will still say she's naive rarar and not facing the truth, either way people will still be too hard on gillian, criticizing anything she has to say, when or how she say it, the reporter and public will always find a method to downgrade her. If only everyone was more forgiving.....

Ever since the whole incident started, I have always felt that Edison was not honest. For example, he said that it was more important for the female stars in the pictures to move on, be ok, etc. than his own comeback in the entertainment industry. He also said that he refused to identify them in court because they have suffered enough. At first I was like, "Awwe, what a gentleman." But then he said, "Some of the pictures were taken by the females themselves."

OK, I do understand that he's in court and he's obligated to answer the questions and the court has the ability to find out if his answers are truthful or not (in some of the cases). For example, if he answered that he doesn't know any of the females in the pictures, the court would know that he's lying. But if he said that he was the one that took all the pictures, how could the court find out that he's not telling the truth? I mean if he's really claiming to care about the females in the pictures, then why not help them to then end?

Whatever, the public is so hypocritical and unfair. They expect the females to be clean, innocent, and pure, but the males should be "learned, experienced, wild, etc." Although I'm not Gillian and Cecilia's fan, I do hope they'll come back in the entertainment industry and be even more successful, loved, and respected before this incident.

I feel sorry for the girls. They are all victims. Edison is a victim too, but he owed the girls a apology and an explanation. About all it was through him that the photos got leaked out. He should at least called the girls himself and explain. Staying away like that is just cowardly.

I'm happy that Cecilia decided to step out and voice her side of the story. And about her reveal about Edison, if it's true, then Cecilia's absolutely right, if you're truly sorry for it, you won't only be saying these words only to the press <_< Ceci's very lucky to have Nic by her side :)

The comparisions between Gillian's & Cecilia's replies are under such different circumstances that it shouldn't be compared. Cecilia's was given a year later..and in a controlled environment. Gillian deserves credit for being the first to face the public.

And I think it's safe to say that Nic & Edison are no longer friends.. :unsure:

Support Gillian & Cecilia's comeback :)

that jacket looks like the one that Eason and Joey has except a diff color! lol

i don't get what cecilia saying about edison not protecting the victims. the photos were already out there, what can he do about it? she says that he is a liar. lied about what? not preventing the photos from getting out to a third party? he never intended for the photos to spread to the public, his only "mistake" was not knowing that deleted files could be retrieved from a computer, so how is that a lie?

Cecilia is the real hypocrite.

she begins the interview by saying how she doesnt blame anyone, not even Edison. but her ENTIRE interview is full of anger towards him, blaming him for everything that has happened. if i remember correctly, the photos were leaked out by a third party, when Edison went to get his computer fixed? so it's not "his fault" that the entire world saw the photos that she was WILLING to take. Edison didnt give out the photos to be published, it was leaked out, and it hasnt done him any good either. just like the rest of the people that were involved, all the negative news and comments were all shared by them; all the women and Edison. its not like he gained/took advantage of this incident to his benefit, he was part of all the negative and bad news too.

she says that she isnt a victim, yet halfway through her interview, she says that all women were victims of Edison. neither all the women involved, nor Edison, are victims, nor are they innocent. if she thinks that she wasnt a victim, why would she be the "judge" and sentence herself to "prison" for the past year?

then she blames Edison for not protecting the women? no one is going to protect you but yourself. if you wanted to be protected, then you shouldnt have done what you did in the first place. but you did, and you were willing to, so you should protect yourself. how can you count on someone who caused you all this to protect you? and how is it possible for Edison to stop the cirulcation of ALL the photos on the web? thats impossible.

she then says that "the road was chosen by yourself," so who else is to blame but yourself? no one forced you into taking those photos.

basically, all this is brought upon herself, and she deserves all that she got. all the unhappiness, feeling uncomfortable, ashamed, all that shes suffered and felt, she deserves all of it.

Okay after reading this interview I'm seeing what a hypocrite Cecilia is. Why said that it was her fault and she's responsible for her own actions and then point the finger at Edison? I'm not on either side, but reading this article just make me dislike her. I know she anger at Edison, but she should know that by taking such photos there's no guarantee that no one else will see them even if the guy did promise her. It's good to hear her side of the story...but it's just childish of her to said that she's not blaming anyone when in fact she's blaming Edison.

I understand why Ceci is mad at Edison for what he had stated, "I will protect these girls."

But she said he never did. He didn't do sh*t. He just sat there and let stuff happen to them.

I understand why she was mad; mad that he made a promise, but he didn't necessarily carry out that promise. And he's using these false claims to get more positive publicity, and from the looks of it, he's succeeding too. She wants him to stop painting a false rosy-pic of himself. She seems even a little jealous and indignant that he managed to shed his bad image when all of them still have to suffer from it. He's not right, but she wasn't all right either.

But what was he to do? He was also a victim, in a sense. What can he do? Stop the presses from printing these photos? It's true that he's trying to save his behind by stating these promises, but in reality, what can he do?









Exactly! She knew what she did wrong, GOOD! Pretty Much blaming him for not stopping this mess, BAD! what the crap could he have done?! if he wanted to reveal these photos he could of but since it got out it's out! pretty sure he wanted to keep it 2 himself anyways! dont still blame him for your mistakes! you should of known yourself what the consequences were! you're not a little kid that was bribed by candy! isnt everyone along w/him affected also?! he's not doing so well as you can see! you've got all the support from loved ones so continue on and be happy!

Isn't she being a bit hypocritical herself? She says she won't blame anyone, but she sounds like she's blaming Edison for everything. It's not like he intentionally showed it to people; he was just stupid and wasn't thinking. And she's holding him responsible for not stopping the pictures from spreading? How can he do that? Once they're out on the internet, nothing can stop them.

I honestly don't think anyone here is at fault. Don't really see why anyone has to apologize.

It's sweet that Nicholas and her family are still so supporting of her. I've always liked Nicholas over Edison, glad that she has such a great husband.

I'm glad that Cecilia spoke out.I'm also happy for her because she's brave enough to tell her emotions...and embraced her mistakes courageously.She is also very lucky because her families and friends all support her and help her pass this obstacle.I feel sorry for her and all the victims(including Edison).But I feel more sorry for the girls because if they were "normal" people,who do you think will be more embarrassed or get bashed more?Of course it will be the girl.Why?Because usually a girl's reputation weighs more.They(the people) will start criticizing her and calling her names,whereas the guy will only be scold for taking those pictures.I'm not saying this will always happen but most of the time it's likely too.I still don't get why people take those pictures.I mean if they were sleeping and those pictures were taken secretively,then I understand...but both side know about it and I agree on taking those pictures,I don't get.

Jeez, I don't know what to say other than that I feel bad for her. I mean, I guess it's a normal thing. I mean, LOTS of NORMAL people do those kinds of things. I only blame the person who stole the photos and keep releasing it continuously.

reading her comments makes me mad. i'm not a fan of either her or edison but her statements sounds so stupid. how can she blame edison for something he didn't have a hand in creating? sure he kept the pictures, but she willingly took them with him. it's not like he leaked them out himself and made tons of money off of. edison was as highly criticized as all the girls. if at that time he came out and said anything, people would have only laughed at him and it might have added more fuel to the huge media fire it became. she should have stayed quiet

wow, okay, i used to think perhaps ceci was a rather good person still,
but after reading this and how she's practically putting all the blame on edison,
i think she's being really hypocritical. :argh

it's good that she wants to take responsibility and is coming out,
but to take responsibility is not by pushing away the blame to someone else. :thumbdown
edison was wrong to say that he'll try to protect the women when in reality there's nothing he could do about it,
with modern technology, the internet cannot be controlled by one single person.
what's she expecting him to do? kill off all the reporters and every internet user? :unsure:

cecilia's making this issue even more of a mess than it already is.

Agree with u there. Perhaps she is more upset that he was such a playboy?? I can see that but she did choose to take these pics with him. Why would u even...u'd never know after the breakups where those pics would end up. common sense.
Folks are giving her sympathy for what...cus she is married! wth. So what about the other unmarried gals? Gil sure wasnt forgivable. what the hell were people expecting for her to say? Im sure all the gals felt the same way but when u are in that state, u say what comes out first. <_<

I think its a bit unfair for her to keep saying that she does not blame Edison but really she is. He never did reveal any names of the female artist until he had to infront of the court.

I think it was impressive that she admits to taking the picture and what's the big deal with it. I don't get why she would say she made a mistake. What was the mistake? taking nude pictures? She choose to take pictures so why say it is a incorrect?

This news is getting really old and I think people should drop the topic.

Everyone was in mass panic, and since Edison is the only guy in this whole situation, he was gonna get bashed by everyone. Keep in mind, the TRIADS are pretty much involved in this too..aka Albert L. ..I mean cmon..EVERYONES career was in trouble after the pics leaked! Most of the girls had relationship problems, but Edison not only had relationship problems, but he was considered a walking DEADMAN. I dont know about you, but I would of flown out of the country my fukin self...lol.

This was so messed up, I jus hope no one will lose their life over this..

I think Cecilia is more mad at Edison for making himself sound like a Savior and that he's very considerate of the girls' feelings by saying, "I will protect these ladies," when in fact he avoided Cecilia's phonecalls and never called her back when he said he would. When the news broke out he should've explained to Cecilia how the pics leaked out instead of avoiding her phonecalls and let her find out through the media.

I agree that Cecilia is a hypocrite, but Edison really made her angry when he said he doesn't care if his career is on the line, but what matters the most is the ladies. If he didn't care about his career then why did he try so hard to convince to the public that he became a good person by becoming religious and that he will commit to doing charity work? If Edison wants to seek faith in God and wants to do charity work, then just do it and don't go out and tell the world about it because it's more sincere that way.

Also, if the ladies' feelings mattered to Edison, why did he ignore Cecilia's phonecalls or avoid her?

Anyways, everyone is a victim, including Edison, but in this double-standard world the ladies will always lose out the most as we have witnessed by hardly anyone calls Edison a sl*t and the fact that he has been offered a role in Singapore and probably soon in America.

i'm not sure if i said like this is good or bad but i just feel like she trying to blame everything to edison.we all grown up, we should know what to do and what not to do? if anything happen, we should face it not just point your finger to others.she willing to take the photo, right? edison dint force anyone to take the picture but of coz is his fault not delete the files before sending to repair.Everyone get hurt in this case but they getting more stress because their identity as celebrities. Did anyone know what happen to other victims?

i think she made a pretty good statement and interview.
She didnt exactly blame Edison for causing all of this, cuz she sed she was the one who chose her path. She just didnt like how Edison treated the situation after the photos got leaked. Not saying that Edison's really at fault at this either, cuz he wasnt the one who intentionally want the pics to be leaked..but she believes he has to take responsibility of what he did, cuz she wanted an apology from Edison,but never got one. I guess she wanted the respect...but it's really a tough situation for both Edison and the girls. I mean it takes a lot...to speak in public...

I just hope this would end.

Nicholas & his family are so loving. their care & love are so unconditional. (along with other ppls' families too!)

i guess the lesson is that the internet is a powerful tool and unforgiving, so do put out anything you would not be happy or proud of, now and in the future. i feel bad for this person and the persons affected.

And who's next to stand up to this....? The not so popular girls probably got paid off by this JackAzz(parents) to keep their mouth shut. Then his mom is protecting him from whatever. Mommy's boy got so spoiled that he thinks he's everything..

Just me thinking negatively... <_<
