China Bans Scandal Hit Stars
China's State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) has issued a warning to Chinese media not to publicise celebrities who are "scandalous", "offensive" or have criminal records. According to a Lianhe Wanbao report, the directive could be triggered by Hong Kong actress Gillian Chung's TV interview about the Edison Chen nude photo scandal in March this year.
An article posted on SARFT's website on May 6 says that programmes attempting to attract audiences by re-visiting the sex scandal cause "psychological damage" to the persons involved, and is "unhealthy" for the public. There has been no official word on which celebrities are considered "scandalous" or "offensive", but sources from the media industry say there is an unofficial blacklist.
Who is on the list? Besides the obvious suspects like Edison Chen, Gillian Chung and Cecilia Cheung, Chinese actresses Fan Bing Bing, Tang Wei, Zhao Wei and Alyssa Chia are apparently also persona non grata.
