More Edison again - this time in the form of a bad lookalike who goes by the moniker (hereafter known as Eddison Chen).
STOMP's star blogger Michelle Quek's latest post on her blog drew AsiaOne's attention to a video produced by a Taiwanese cable TV network that featured Edison's sort-of doppelganger
The actor in the video, despite having a face of a camel and non-existent lips, packs a punch otherwise. Edison's, er, unique rapping style (bad pronunciation and all), devil-may-care attitude and slouchy posture were imitated to a T.
The video was divided into three segments, with fake Edison imitating real Edison in a background uncannily similar to real Edison's first press video.
However, instead of imitating Edison word for word, "Eddison" told viewers sombrely that he had learnt his lesson: Computers should never be sent in for repairs but be destroyed.
Sexy females - and at one time a paunchy man - were shown to sporadically hug and ruffle "Eddison's" hair, cajoling him to take pictures with them. Although he tried to put on a remorseful front, "Eddison" would fall prey to their charms and run off with them, presumably to take pictures of a questionable nature. Lesson learnt, no?
"Eddison" also announced that thanks to the scandal, he had finally discovered his "second spring" in life - not as an actor, singer, or owner of a street clothing company, but as a photographer.
Blogger Michelle said that the video was "really hurtful". She asks: "Why does Edison have to take all the blame?
"Everyone make mistakes in life; I think everyone deserves a chance to turn over a new leaf."
