...Chan, a soft-core-sex actress with a history of bizarre and violent behavior. A week after her death, photos of her corpse were in the papers; her mother said, ?I feel as if my heart was sliced with a knife.? Then there was the October conviction of popster bad-boy Nicholas Tse - the son of 60s stud Patrick Tse and actress-temptress Deborah (?Hong Kong Emmanuelle?) Li - on charges of ?conspiracy to pervert the course of justice? by leaving the scene of a car crash and having his chauffeur take the rap. Photographers cut through dense foliage to snap...
