Coffee Lam offers her side of the story
11 Jul – Though already terminated from TVB for last month's restroom scandal, actress Coffee Lam has recently offered her side of the story in an attempt to restore her public image.
Last month, the "Triumph in the Skies II" actress made headlines when she was photographed getting into a restroom cubicle located inside the IFC Mall with her date, wealthy heir Will Lam. The actress was alleged to have conducted lewd behaviour with Will inside the restroom for 30 minutes without noticing the presence of paparazzi outside.
However, according to ET Today, Coffee admitted that it was Will who pulled her into the restroom, but said that they did not behave in a lewd manner like it was reported in the media.
"We didn't have sex in the cubicle," she said. "I was very drunk and was feeling queasy, so I threw up that night. He took me to the restroom and we kissed."
Asked about the groaning sound she made inside the stall, Coffee said that it was a natural reaction to the kiss.
"Later on, a cleaning lady knocked and asked if anyone is inside. At that time, I realised that I should get out of there quickly, so I told Will that I wanted to head home," said Coffee.
The actress admitted that she was surprised to find reporters waiting for her outside.
In regard to Will Lam's refusal to address the issue and left Coffee to deal with it on her own while he flew to Hangzhou, the actress defended him, saying that Will is a kind and loyal man.
Coffee also admitted that she was frustrated when TVB thought she was trying to use the scandal to promote herself.
"Who would do such a thing and sacrifice their own future and family's good name?" said the actress.
