Recently, singer Elva Hsiao was rumoured to be dating actor Kai Ko, who is 12 years her junior. One witness even claimed that the pair was behaving intimately at a night club last Saturday.
A Taiwanese tabloid picked up the news and reported that Elva and Kai first went to the movies with a group of friends, before visiting the night club together. Later, when they became drunk, Kai was said to have hugged Elva from behind.
After the report was published, Kai admitted that he had gone to a club with Elva, but insisted that they were "merely friends". He also denied that he had hugged Elva.
Yesterday, Elva's recording company, Golden Typhoon, released a formal statement rebutting the false news reports.
The company stated that while it does not respond to baseless claims, it was forced to do so this time as the matter had severely affected Elva's reputation.
The company stated that the tabloid had continued to report the false news, even after the artistes involved had denied the allegations. If the person who tipped the tabloid is found, Golden Typhoon promises to take legal actions.
