Edison asks S'pore blogger: "Will you do it wid me babee"

>ACTOR-SINGER Edison Chen might have returned to Hong Kong to apologise but the nuclear fallout continues.

Five more women are said to be involved in the sex scandal, after the police found more pictures in Chen's possession, says Sing Tao Daily. They add to a list of seven named so far, including artistes Gillian Chung and Cecilia Cheung.

Singaporean blogger Dawn Yang, 24, is glad that she is not one of them.

She revealed that she met the actor through friends while holidaying in Japan in 2004.

In her blog on Stomp, the Straits Times' social networking and citizen media website, she said Chen made salacious propositions to her over Internet messaging.

She wrote: "When the pictures first leaked, I seriously thanked God I was not foolish, naive, or feeling frisky beyond control." She described Chen as a "young, hot-blooded man" who can "get any girl he wants, and he knows it".

Meanwhile, ex-artiste Bobo Chan, 28, has been deemed the most pitiful victim of the scandal by Hong Kong netizens.

Chan's relationship with her financial whiz fiance is said to be on the rocks. Yesterday, she got more sympathy when rumours circulated that she could be three months pregnant.

However, the leading man in the sexcapade appeared to escape unscathed, career-wise.

Although he said that he would quit Hong Kong showbiz, Apple Daily reported that Chen could have a Hollywood career.

He apparently impressed director Christopher Nolan in the new Batman film, The Dark Knight, with his baddie cameo so much that he has won a larger role in another sequel.

Accordingly, while Chen was in North America when the scandal broke, he had found time to audition for the Batman film.
