TVB News: TVB ‘shuts out’ Sudden Weekly & FACE, prohibits entering TVB and interviews

Following Vincent Wong, Yoyo Chen and Augustine Lee, TVB leading Siu Sang Bosco Wong gets secretly photographed in his bedroom fully nude by the paparazzi. The day before, TVB issued a statement with intense denunciation towards the two related magazines Sudden Weekly and FACE Magazine (TN: Both part of Next Media, owns Apple Daily as well). Yesterday TVB decided to take the situation up another level and completely 'shut out' the two magazines.

TVB Foreign Affairs Deputy Director (Tsang Sing Ming) said: "TVB decided to forbid Sudden Weekly and FACE from entering TVB City to interview our artists and TVB artists will not accept interviews or photos by these two magazines for a two month duration. TVB contacted both magazines, and hope to take back the photos and prohibit them from publishing on other networks. Both magazines have not responded."


TVB Director of Production Resources, Virgina Lok, expressed she will provide counseling for Bosco and that artists have their limit too. This type of action violates their privacy and is immoral behavior, that affects the general atmosphere in society. Asked if this incident damaged Bosco's image and if there are any losses? Virgina said: "Nope! We all know he's the victim here!"

Felix Wong: What has the government done?

The incident caught the attention of artists all over the city, many of them exploded. Also a TVB artist, Kevin Cheng urged on Weibo yesterday: "Please address this!" Veteran Felix Wong replied: "Handle with detail and planning. Taking private photos on private property is equivalent to taking photos under the dress in a public area. The same crime does not pardon! Government Officials of the Hong Kong government, have you seen or heard it? Have you done something? Do you careless about the privacy of us 'star citizens'? Ridiculous! Angered! Bring back the justice for all victims!" Fala Chen also wrote: "Secret photographs, fabricated stories, in hope to attract more readers and increase sales, these tactics cannot hide under the 'freedom of news' umbrella forever!"

Nancy Wu: For what reason?

Nancy Wu responds with blame: "For what reason do you need to take photos of a person’s private life? What does this have anything to do with readers? Does being naked, using the restroom, how much toilet tissue used and how its cleared out need to be in front of you and made public in order to be able to match your so-called saying 'eat too much salty fish must put up with thirst'? Michael Miu and Jamie Chik expressed that the Government Officials just know how to give out money, and cannot see anything else. Rose Chan, Macy Chan, Christine Ng, Oscar Leung and many other artists all supported Bosco on Weibo as well.

Myolie Wu: The Shut Out is not forever

Myolie Wu was at TVB City to work on her new series and spoke out comforting her ‘boyfriend’ Bosco: “Very helpless, I don’t know what to say. Letting everyone see everything. (TVB shut the two magazines out?) It’s not forever, I am very worried about Bosco being unhappy, but I see he’s fine. I hope they don’t take any more photos, Bosco is already very miserable at home, like he’s in jail, hiding and withdrawing.”

Yoyo Chen: Put them in jail

Yoyo Chen expressed her agreement to the ‘shut out’ and those media who takes photos secretly that they must not erode in artists’ human rights. She said angered: “They really need to be supervised by the government, punish them and put them in jail. Otherwise we need to start a petition and put up signs to protest!” Yoyo continued: “Bosco’s situation is more over than ours (her with Vincent Wong). These two magazines are too bad, if TVB don’t speak up, how do we know if there will be a third time? This violation cannot happen again. I feel that only the government can stop them, best punishment is to send them to jail!”
