Jack Neo Sex Scandal

[TayHongSiang]

it's good that the mods here have been actively doing their job....i wouldn't want somebody manipulating the bidding section especially by using multiple nicks.

Back to J Neo.

Did anyone come across any support statement from Patricia mok, Mark lee and his other disciples?

strange that no one is speaking up for him at a time like this.

haha...probably Mark Lee is also guility...and i think if i were them, i will keep my mouth shut...how to support him?......its not a case of a one-off extra marital affair or he did it out of rash after a drink or 2...but i think the media has made a big news out of this....too much hype...there are more pressing issues facing our economy, job mkt and election....i guess its a good way to distract our attention from these issues....

Also to add, I saw The New Paper headline last weekend, something like "I only had affair with ONE woman". Yeah right... more like "I only got caught with one woman" or "I tried to have an affair with 11 women, but only 1 was willing "

being a celebrity is not easy, have friends and foes. maybe those who dont like him and take this opportunity to take him down further... who knows? being a layman like me is better la..hehezz..

perhaps he should just keep quiet. like tiger and get it over. singaporeans are forgetful. after awhile things just move on.

who knows? maybe another home made video surface out and he will be forgotten in no time!

Sad but true lol.

[TayHongSiang]

Sad but true lol.

Yea la like tt effective.. Hehe bro do u hav his phone no.? I'll tell him tt... Lol!

[arcanehacker]

Yeah.. I second that.. I think he shouldn't have came out and make any statement to the public.. If must, apology should be made only to the people he hurt in the process..

And outsiders are just too quick to judge and point fingers for some reason.. I'd quote "let him who is without sins cast the first stone"..

yeah his apologies more for damage control rather than anything else.

As for casting of stone, no lah we are not stoning him. Just discussing only. Probably those with mistress shld not touch on this topic

i agree....

There's no sincerity from his apologies....and coming from an actor background, its hard for pple to believe whether its genuine or an act....

Secondly, we are not condemning him...yes, we are judging his actions....but certainly not casting stones on him...we are not asking the law to punish him...so pls quote yr bible verses in context and correctly...and this is a non-religious forum...pls dun use your bible verses here to be fair to non-christians......

Who are we then to even judge another? Are we any better people? I believe everyone has skeletons.. just because its not exposed, doesn't mean we are any better.. I'd say better not to judge.. ever.. let him live his live as he would.. not our call..

wah you so serious arh.... keke....

I am ok with biblical verses but there maybe non christians who might dislike it.

haha...i sound serious....

afterall, this is a secular reefing forum...have to be sensitive...not right to impose christian values on non-christians or pple from other faiths...

[arcanehacker]

Hmm.. and we are ok on values for judging people when we are not even in the direct know of the whole history? ..

this is a judgemental world dude...yr performance appraisal, yr opinion abt someone, our judicial system...our newspaper reports....keeping quiet and not doing anything when u witness a crime or wrong-doing is just as bad...

[albinosage]

I agree with this statement, but there are a couple of things to note in this context:

1. Jack Neo is a celebrity, and has been in showbiz for over 20 years. Being judged is part and parcel of the line of work he has chosen.

When he does good work, he wins praise and earns money from the public whether through advertising dollars, our time spent watching his programmes, or box office and DVD sales -- his success was built upon the time, money and attention given to him by the public. In this case, he failed to live up to the high standards of morality he set for himself (PAP grassroots leader, Cultural medallion winner, loving family guy). Nobody put him in the position he found himself in.

2. As the general public, we have invested time, money and attention towards Jack Neo's success. I'm not saying it is right, but it is hardly surprising that he gets roasted for failing to live up to his image. It is human nature to pass judgment, however hard we try to be lawful good.

Silence is violence

A good man who fails to act upon witnessing wrongdoing is just as guilty.

i agree...how not to judge him when he is a public figure and he has a PBM title for goodness sake!

its human nature to judge first then sympathise later...

gosh... really an ARTs person. response also so well articulated.

I think certain values can be judged right or wrong lah... like theft, adultery, etc. Then a person will be judged by the values that he practices. So for general folks, it is unevitable that when a public figure takes a wrong turn, he will be in the limelight of criticism. This is the world we are in and this is the normal behaviour.

Then of course there are Christians and they have a different set of values and teachings. Nothing wrong with biblical verses but just that they probably applies only to Christians and others might not like it. just like if the Buddhists start talking about Kharma and afterlife etc etc, prob some Christians might be irked. And what if the Muslims start quoting Quran verses and talking about Allah. .....

think you get the picture. We are a multi racial nation. So lets be sensitive to one another's religion.

I wonder why people kinda relate and add in the morality part to everyone they idolize? Woods, Jack, etc.. People like Woods, just have passion of the things they like and make it good.. I can't see why people who like or liked him take it so personally when he was exposed? .. does his multiple affairs make him a bad player? Or did the fans/media created frenzy made him bad because of lack of moral support.
