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.
Kenway
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 ....
~Sue~
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.
kRazykAzi
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
laazer
for some reason im skeptical that something like this happend..but heh who knows. time will tell
sweet
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
emonypemony
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
Seoshi.love.
Men, I feel so sorry for Gillian. The media is getting more and more horrible!
Kit_0908
Thats distgusting... how can they do something like that. I agree that legal action must be taken. It's horrible.
lucky girl
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!!
lilbluehorse
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.
GreenCherrys
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.
Blinded_Glory
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.
Havoc
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.
Infatuated
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.
ecobssessed
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
homework_hater
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!
sakuradropxx
I feel sorry for her!!The reporters are insane!!!..
lilxswtxgrl
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.
Joy2004
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

SweetyPie
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!!!
sportaylil1
wow these reporters are really messed up hope this reporter gets fired and sued, even though its the reporters job to get news on celebrities, but it doesn't give them the right to publish things like this. hope gillian is ok too :l
asillysaint
F*ck the media; I hope this person(s) burns in hell! That's all I have to say.
LitO kiTty
this is veryy wrong. whoever took those pictures should go to #!#$@#@# ....

being a reporter is just a job. don't gotta go that far. I don't understand how that person can do such a thing .... i hope whoever it is gets seriously charged for this. If the law doesn't help Gillian. then this world is hopeless.
inlovewithu
i feel really sorry for her & hope the reporter gets the punishment they deserve...i think that the hk paparazzi seriously go over the line when it comes to taking pictures!
SH4ever
those reporters really went too far and the person that took the pic as well as any reporter that take those intimate pics should be punish.

its not really surprising though, nowadays media can do everything to sell their s***t, Gillian was very unlucky this time...it could have be any1
stephy_fan2
i can't believe this happened to Gillian, i feel so bad for her, hope she feels better soon. The reporters are so sick to have done such thing
wchoi
hope they catch the pervert with the camera and slap him with a big lawsuit! that's just messed up, shes all crying in the youtube clip, and luckily it wasnt worse.
マイシーさん
Reading this really makes me angry. I can see that there are a lot of other people as well. 37 users are reading this right now. I can't believe this. The media -- why the heck does anyone go this far? I absolute hate it.
Coolgirl2836
if you search up 壹本便利 on yahoo, and go to their website, they actually posted up a pix they took from her. hope she feel better soon and happy again which might not be anytime soon since everyone knows about it
Gill#1Fan
that is just soo wrong! reporters these days are sooo crazy!!! hope EEG/Gill/Mani will sue the crap out of that reporter
qwertyuiop
wow..that's so sad. those peopel wen tway to far with waht they did to Gillian
shyqt
The reporters are definitely stepping over the line. They're over doing a lot of things. They should really get sued. Poor Gillian. She's gotta go through all that. Hope she feels better.
Sneez3rific ^^
Like Miriam and most other days, this is just way too over board.
nature
I am sorry for gillian....but it's ridiculous how someone could get into the room when artists were changing. There should have been someone outside watching and not any unfamiliar people in. The way how it sounds from the article is that there was no prevention whatsoever.
loveoncemore
awww i feel so bad for her. i hope shes alright. the reporters these days are like this. hk is sad.....
littovtanjel
That's just too much. Do they know a thing called "privacy?" That is so rude...I hope Gillian feels better.
bumxbum

this is so sad....i feel so bad for her...the reporters nowadays gone tooooo far...how can the reporters do this kind of things...the person that did this is heartless, cold blood...
bluethunder
that is really way too much. this totally crosses the line. the media is really out of control. who would want pics of them posted all over like that? i really hope that they stop the photos from leaking because it would be totally damaging not only to her career but to her overall.
flounderz
Wow...this is ridiculous. A person doing that in Canada can be charged for a sexual offence (something like tresspass by night which may be used for voyeurs). It should at least be that if not more because the reporter is profitting from that activity. Professionals have to abide by ethical codes. Reporters should have the ethical and professional obligation to abide by some ethical standards.
illusions*
that is SOO MESSED UP =.= they cant even have their own privacy RAWRS (i want to see the pictures though)
phat_aaron168
omg that is just wrong......................hope she sues big time, will teach them a lesson

but still unlucky i guess
xxMiya
Poor Gillian! =[ This is way too serious and so unfair for Gillian..OMG, I hope Mani does sue the reporters. Grrr..I can't believe this happened! Those reporters are just going way too overboard! Everyone should at the very least be able to change without been spyed on. I hope Gillian's pictures don't get posted on the internet. It'll be so embrassing..

Petition can be signed here: http://www.petitiononline.com/twins822/petition.html
angelic_soul
Now, what the heck is wrong with those tiny brains of theirs? I mean come on, for their own sake, they shouldn't have done that. It's just beyond words how disgusting their actions are. Now being celebrities aren't as joyful and easy as it seems huh? I'm just shocked, I mean, I never knew they'd go this far.

I just hope this will be dealt with properly and hopefully nothing will be published. And Gillian, stay strong.
misspinky
the reporters have gone to far. i mean if she wanted to have pics of her changing on front page, she would have became a porn star and not a singer. gosh people need some privacy! do they know what R-E-S-P-E-C-T means! they should definitely get sued for that.
blossommonte
what the heck is going on? the artist can't even change alone without getting scared..... if pix of them of bf or gf is taken its not that bad but when they are totally vunerable! this takes the cake out of everything.....
