Popular actor and singer Edison Chen apologized on Monday after
images appearing to show the Hong Kong star partially nude in the
company of several starlets leaked onto the Internet.
In a video statement Chen, 27, called the postings of the
photographs "intentionally hurtful and malicious."

"I hereby use this opportunity to apologize to anyone who has
been affected by this strange, strange ordeal," Chen said.
Police believe the images were copied from Chen's computer when
it was serviced last year.
"If you 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," a
subdued-looking Chen added in the video.
