Hong Kong action star Jackie Chan, center, and Tony Leung Ka-fai, right, arrive at Hong Kong's government headquarters during a demonstration Tuesday, Aug. 29,. 2006. Members of Hong Kong's entertainment industry attended a televised rally Monday to protest tabloid journalism they said violated their privacy rights. The demonstration was sparked by the publication of photos of pop star Gillian Chung changing her clothes after a recent concert in Malaysia. The pictures were on the cover of the weekly Easy Finder magazine. Black T-shirts read: "Bitterness and disgust, To tolerate evil is to abet it."

"As public figures, we should allow our pictures to be taken. If we crash our cars when we're drunk, it serves us right. People should scold us. But for a girl to be photographed when she's in a changing room, such a private place, is despicable behavior," he said. (Yahoo news)
