Hot on the heels of Shane Pow being dropped by Mediacorp after being charged with drink driving (again), veteran comedian Mark Lee has said that he is open and willing to sign the troubled actor to his company.
He was also one of the parties present at fellow actor Jeffrey Xu’s birthday party at Terence Cao’s house, where all 13 people were guilty of flouting Covid-19 safe management rules.
Mark Lee praised Pow for his acting and looks, saying: “I’m willing to give him a chance to sign with us if he doesn’t mind joining our company.
Lee’s production house, King Kong Media Production, was started in 2017 and boasts local comedian legends Henry Thia and Marcus Chin among their roster.
Lee added that he wasn’t surprised that Mediacorp dropped Pow, highlighting that drink driving is a serious offence, more so if it is a repeat offence.
He added that those involved need to learn their lesson and not do it again.
Lee revealed how he would have handled the situation if one of his own artistes were involved in such a situation,: “I would hold a press conference and ask the artiste to make a public apology and bow 90 degrees, thrice.”
He added that there is no need to evade or hide, once the press has asked all the questions, there will be nothing left to ask.
As of now, Pow has been silent about his case and hasn’t said anything about it.
Lee drew an example of actor Christopher Lee, 49, who had a drink driving charge in 2007 and was convicted, serving 6 weeks in jail.
Lee said: “Just look at Ming Shun (Christopher Lee’s Chinese name), he bravely faced the music all those years ago and his career is doing very well now. Everyone needs a second chance.”
Pow has two dramas that are coming out, with Soul Old Yet So Young having finished filming and due to air in June; as well as The Heartland Hero, which is currently still in production.
The producers of the latter are discussing how to proceed with Pow’s termination, as he is the second male lead and the scripts for the first 100 episodes having already been written.
There are also 2 months worth of filming already done.
One of the options being thrown in is to have another actor take over his role mid-series, which would be a first in the history of local television.

A Taiwanese YouTuber in Singapore, Angel Hsu, drew flak for cooking a chicken at the Sembawang Hot Spring Park using water from the hot spring.
Angel said that she wanted to experiment whether the sulphur-based spring water could possibly be used to cook a chicken wing.
Turns out it is possible to cook a chicken using the spring water, as she said the chicken was perfectly cooked.
However, she has been criticised by numerous netizens for her actions, with one commenter telling her not to tell people she’s from Taiwan if she commits illegal acts in Singapore.
She was also criticised by Lianhe Zaobao and Shin Min Daily News, with a Lianhe Zaobao columnist labelling her behavior “unthinkable”, pointing out that her cooking the chicken in a public premise could cause hygiene problems.
The columnist said:
“It’s clearly stated as an egg-cooking station, but she ended up cooking chicken instead. Moreover, the fat and juices from the chicken wing would’ve permeated the air and water, polluting the area.”
