Kelly Lin loses lawsuit against China Times

In other legal news, Taiwan’s Apple Daily (蘋果日報) reported that actress Kelly Lin (林熙蕾) lost her suit against the China Times (中國時報). A year ago the Times reported that Lin had secretly married former F4 boy band member Ken Chu (朱孝天) in the US and showed pictures of her life in America. Lin promptly sued the daily saying the paparazzi had invaded her privacy. Perhaps Lin lost because, as a model, complaining that photographers are taking pictures of her and publishing them seems indefensible.

The two lovebirds returned on Monday evening from Japan and were immediately chased by Taiwan’s energetic press corps. Chu tried to give them the slip — he really should know better — and drove to his assistant’s pad on Heping East Road (和平東路), after dropping off Lin at her Dazhi District apartment. When cornered by reporters and asked about his relationship, the former crooner said the pair were just friends.
