Edison Chen
Host Jon Niermann
In a television interview on a Star World Satellite program based in Shanghai, Edison described last year's photo scandal as an 'invisible gift'. He said he didn't know if he was the criminal or the villain, but many friends supported him through much distress and unnecessary attention. Edison is relieved to say: "This never-ending nightmare has ended." As for the future, he is contemplating developing a film and play a pervert or homosexual killer.(Sina)
