Hong Kong star Edison Chen's sexy pics

Sexy Hong Kong movie actor and singer Edison Chen released a video on YouTube yesterday to quell a growing controversy over some explicit pictures that have found their way onto the Internet.

Allegedly the photos are of Chen being intimate with various celebrities from the Hong Kong entertainment scene including Gillian Chung, Bobo Chan, and Cecilia Cheung. Seems Chen really likes being on camera for practically everything, including sex.

He initially argued the images had been digitally altered, but this does not seem to be the case.

"A person had taken his computer to be fixed, but during the maintenance period, someone used dishonest means to take some information from the computer and distributed this information indiscriminately to others," assistant police commissioner Wong Fook-chuen said.

Chen changed tack yesterday by releasing a videotaped statement: "I've decided to break my silence today and make this statement to the media and to all people involved in this strange ordeal. Recent documents being posted online have been intentionally hurtful and malicious not only to the victims but to our whole community.

"I now call upon everyone to help and assist the victims of this case. If you have ever downloaded any of these images, please do not forward them to anyone. ... If you are still in possession of these images, I urge you to please destroy them immediately."

Have celebrities just not figured out this whole Internet thing yet? You can see his YouTube video here.  

Chen is trying to break into the American movie market. He appeared in "The Grudge 2", and will play an unnamed villain in the upcoming "Batman: The Dark Knight." He also invested $10 million HKD into his own media company, Clot Media Division.

Interestingly enough Edison once admitted his favorite exercise is "having sex."
