Gillian Chung Yan-tung thought about killing herself - but only for a fleeting moment.

The Canto-pop star's girl-next door image was shattered after explicit sex photos of her and actor-singer Edison Chen Koon-hei were posted on the internet last year, and her future career looked bleak.

But, she said yesterday, 'If I died, all my problems will be passed on to the people around me, the people who care about me.'

So she abandoned the idea, and picked herself up for a grand return to showbiz.

Speaking to TVB general manager Stephen Chan Chi-wan on his show Be My Guest yesterday, Chung was the second victim of the scandal to break the silence, following actress Cecilia Cheung Pak-chi, who accused Chen of not protecting the victims as he promised in a television interview aired last week.

Chung's long-awaited interview was shot yesterday at the Repulse Bay mansion of tycoon Albert Yeung Sau-sing, owner of Emperor Entertainment Group to which Chung belongs.
