News of celebrities being exposed as sexual harassers have been running rampant. Unfortunately, it seems Taiwanese comedian and TV host Mickey Huang (黃子佼) is determined to add oil to the flames.
After being accused of sexually harassing a 19-year-old netizen today (19th June), Mickey Huang released a video admitting he had done it. However, he refused to go down alone. He then released the names of thirteen celebrities and their scandals. “If I can’t escape (my wrongs), why should they?” he asked. “There are many more!”
The netizen had reportedly uploaded a post claiming she had been forcibly kissed by a male artist and was photographed nude. Mickey later responded to the issue via three since-deleted videos which he uploaded to his socials. He claimed responsibility for the misdemeanour while apologising to his wife. But, he then stated that he should not be the only one being held accountable for his wrongdoings.
Mickey initially claimed he had been influenced by his mother cheating openly in front of him, and the Japanese porn culture. However, he went on to claim that there were other shadows in the entertainment industry that needed to be reviewed. “I don’t care,” he said during the video. “I just want to say it. F*ck you!”
He called out Barbie Hsu (徐熙媛) and her sister, Mavis Fan (范曉萱), Aya Liu (柳翰雅), and Lawrence Chou (周俊偉) for taking drugs. “In Taipei, these people invited (me) to take drugs. In a Korean restaurant, DJ Koo (Koo Jun-yup, 구준엽) forced me to take drugs in the bathroom. They also took drugs in a nightclub opposite the (UFO),” he reportedly said.
Mickey also went after fellow TV host Jacky Wu (吳宗憲), claiming he had a chaotic relationship with both men and women, and alleged he “does not pay back money owed“. Another TV host, Sam Tseng (曾國城) had apparently smoked and drank in Zhongshan Hall, a historical building in Taipei. Mickey then mentioned that “a diva had sex with a producer“, and “a good friend and brother cheated (on his marriage) but his image is still fine“.
“I was also hurt on the road to love,” Mickey added. He named another person, Tao, who supposedly kept asking about him about Chris Wang (宥勝). He also mentioned someone else who apparently knew he liked Vega Tsai (蔡燦得), but chased away before breaking up with him and disappeared. Micky also name-dropped Ariel Sha (夏宇童), saying she had refused to admit that they were together.
All these scandals had allegedly affected Mickey one way or another, or so he claimed. “In the early days, I was a bastard. But there were also many bastards around, like Barbie Hsu and her sister,” he stated. Mickey then apologised to his wife and daughter before asking others to look after them for him.
Artists, such as Jacky Wu have already responded to the issue, saying they will file a lawsuit against Mickey. But, Mickey himself is in no shape to respond further. Chinese media reported that Mickey was admitted to the hospital, allegedly drunk and bearing self-inflicted wounds.
