Zhou Jie slammed Ruby Lin for previous kissing issue
11 Sep - Chinese actor Zhou Jie recently set tongues wagging when he suddenly decided to defend himself over an allegation made by Ruby Lin a few years back about their kissing scene in her hit drama, "My Fair Lady".
As reported on Mingpao, 13 years ago the Taiwanese actress went on the variety show, "Kangxi Lai Le", where she was asked by host Dee Hsu about the most unforgettable kissing scene she had in her career.
She then mentioned the kiss she had with Zhou Jie, who played the character Fu Erkang in the drama, saying that she would close her mouth tight because Zhou would try to force his tongue into her mouth.
In a Weibo post that he published recently, Zhou responded to the old issue, saying, "If I had forced my tongue into [someone's mouth], why did she not protest on the spot? It's not as though the entire crew and the director are related to me [and would defend me], right?"
Zhou also questioned why Ruby would mention the kiss six years after it happened, adding, "[Maybe] she didn't think that the technology will develop so fast in recent years."
When asked about this recently, Ruby's studio said that the person involved knew what he did, and that there is no use to bring up the subject anymore.
Netizens also sided with Ruby Lin in the issue, saying that Zhou had a lot of time to respond to the interview before, but didn't do so. They also speculated that the actor may only be using the issue as a publicity stunt to save his dying career.
