According to a report in Shin Min Daily today, Jack Neo is considering remaking his affair into a movie which will kill two birds with one stone.
It will surely be a box-office hit while enabling him to provide his version of the story to repair his embattled public image.
Insiders from the entertainment industry felt that Jack is likely to “distort” the truth to portray himself as a “victim” in the movie which will not provide the public an accurate picture of what really happened.
Far from appearing repentant, Jack has launched a counter-offensive in the media by casting aspersions on the credibility of the allegations made by the 10 women that he had sexually harrassed or preyed on them including Foyce Le Xuan, a 16 year old girl and a 55 year old transsexual masseur.
The open support of Foreign Minister George Yeo may have emboldened Jack to obfuscate the issue in order to protect his already shattered reputation and image in the eyes of Singaporeans.
George Yeo wrote on his blog calling for Singaporeans to rally around Jack Neo immediately after the scandal erupted in the media.
