ON THE LAM Chen

Edison Chen, the marginally talented Grudge 2 star embroiled in a sex scandal dominating the news in the Far East, has bigger problems than his slumping career. According to a report in today's New York Post, Chen is currently hiding out in the United States because a contract was put on his head in Hong Kong this past weekend.

It seems one of the many girls Chen photographed in compromising positions, a 19-year-old student studying in Boston named Vincy Yeung, happens to have a mob-connected tycoon uncle back home who didn't much like the fact that pictures of his niece bathing in the shower are currently just a few Internet clicks away.
