Celebrity of the Week: Edison Chen


Edison Chen is an actor from Hong Kong, who starred in "The Grudge 2" and also had a small stint in "The Dark Knight". I had serious obsessions with the Grudge franchise a few years back and Edison was pretty much the male lead in the show, so therefore here he is as a diverse male and celebrity of colour. How open-minded and culturally aware am I? ("Very", if you were straining for the right word.)

Edison had a sex scandal that caused a huge meltdown in Hong Kong a wee-while ago because, while getting his laptop serviced, the servicemen found and released hundreds of photos and videos of him getting it on with other famous & well respected Chinese actresses, many of which are only a google search away. I happen to love sex scandals and one day look forward to having my own, so high-five to you Edison!

Unfortunately no one in Hong Kong thought similar and his career was kinda destroyed. He should move to America, because half the celebrities spawned from a sex scandal. (Paris and Kim, I love you dearly, but you know it's true.)
