Gillian Chung, a Chinese Hong Kong pop star and one of the singer combination twins,  has broken her silence to apologize for a naked photo scandal which has left her clean-cut image in tatters.

The singer, 27, who performs in pop duo Twins with bandmate Charlene Choi, spoke out for the first time since pictures allegedly showing her with male star Edison Chen naked in bed together were leaked online last month (Jan08).

And Chung has put her embarrassing moment down to her inexperience in dealing with fame.

She says, “I admit that I was naive and very silly, but I’ve grown up now.

“I want to thank my company, family and friends for their concern. As for the influence this incident has had on society, I apologize. In the coming days I will continue to focus on my work and face up to my life.”

The apology comes days after Chung’s record company, Emperor Entertainment Group, insisted in a statement the pictures had been digitally altered.

Police are currently investigating the incident, in which over 1300 images of celebrities had been stolen from a computer, purported to belong to Chen. Eight people have so far been arrested for infringement of obscene material laws.

There was new speculation that “Kira” is actually a group of three who actually got hold of the photos and videos last year and had tried to extort money from Edison Chen. Edison Chen told Albert Yeung about it and through some ways, they set a trap and managed to ensnare one of them. The other two however got away and are believed to have escaped to Thailand and Indonesia and continued to extort money from them. via

9 Feb 2008 - 553pm Update:
Looks like a showbiz insider could be the one leaking the pictures? Could it be Kira? See for more info

batgwa.com has reason to believe that a show-business insider was spreading images related to the ongoing sex photos scandal. Yesterday at 10:45 GMT, the news desk received an email containing 12 images, purportedly of Gillian Chung (鍾欣桐) giving Edison Chen (陳冠希) oral sex, that had already surfaced the day before.

The email had the Simplified-Chinese subject heading “The innocent Gillian Chung” (纯情的阿娇钟欣桐), but did not contain any text except for a general email footer.

The batgwa.com email address that the message was sent to had never been publicly listed and had only ever been used for communication with other media companies.

7 Feb 2008 Comment: via

Will Comissioner Tang’s remarks led to panic hard disk purges all over Hong Kong? All pervious assumptions that possession is not illegal have gone out of the window. Tang has just stated that possession = distribution, depending on his own opinion. The resulting maximum penalty is HKD 1,000,000 in fines and 3 yaers in prison. Which among Hong Kong citizens should already be identified as a prime suspect? Edison Chen! He took hundreds of these photographs, he stored them on his pink Apple Powerbook and it is now know that some of those photographs were distributed on the Internet. Isn’t he the most obvious suspect for the crime of possesion/potential distribution? Why haven’t the police arrested and detained him with no bail? Did he leave for Canada because he was anticipating the problem? Have the Hong Kong police asked Interpol and/or Royal Canadian Mounted Police to interrogate Edison Chen?

Meanwhile, singer Cathy Leung was wrongly identified as one of the woman (unknown02) in the 210 new pic set (7 Feb 2008 version). It has now been ascertained that it was Mandy Chen Yu Ju instead. She got to know Edison Chen in 2001 while she was participating in Miss Chinese International Pageant 2001 and he was one of the performers that night. She was in the industry for a while but has since left. This brings to the number of starlets that has been exposed in this scandal to six.

Yesterday, there is new development in the Edison Chen “Nude Picture Scandal” which has shocked the entire Hong Kong.

Gillian Chung continues to be dragged down by the scandal. There are rumours that commercial sponsors wants to discontinue their business relations. She expressed that Gillian Chung accepted three new commercial and will continue to work in 2008.
