32-years-old Jaycee Chan, son of Hollywood Movie Star Jackie
Chan, apologized today in a news conference to the general public for his bad
act to the extent of being jailed for six months for the use of drugs and for
allowing people to use marijuana in his apartment. Jaycee is also an actor and
a singer like his dad, Jackie Chan, he is a b-rated actor, even that is
acceptable, but seriously is there a Z-rated actor? Lolz. His father’s shoes
are too big, wide and long for him to fill quickly at the rate that he is going
with drugs. Jaycee and Taiwanese actor Ko Kai and some other actors were
arrested in August 2014 for the use of drugs.
“After this correction by the Justice system, I have changed
my outlook on life and my values,” Jaycee said at the news conference which was
broadcasted live on Chinese state
broadcaster, CCTV.
He said, “I’m very ashamed that I haven’t been a good role
model, I want to start again, but I know that it’s the mass media that will
decide.”
He also said he is rededicating himself to his family and
entertainment business career.
He and Ko kai were both tested positive for marijuana and
the police seized 100 grams and above of drugs in his Beijing apartment. He could
have been sentenced to up to 3 years, but was shown leniency by the court for
admitting his offence.
Jackie Chan who is also an anti-drug ambassador and deputy
to the national legislature’s main consultative body in China apologized for his son publicly for
the use of drugs and pledged to work with him on his path to recovery.
Jaycee’s mother Lin Feng-Jiao is former Taiwanese actress,
she was raised in Los Angeles and has appeared in about 20 films. Jaycee said
his father did not use his position to influence any special treatment for him
in prison. He also said, he’d first encountered marijuana 8 years earlier when
he went on a trip in Netherlands, but became a regular user about 2 years ago.
Despite it all, Jaycee has decided to spend time with his family over next week’s
Lunar New Year holiday.
