There is no such thing as bad publicity ????

So are these 2 writing their own script regardless of the appropriate regulations?

 

After all they are celebrities who must be respected.

Except when it highlights a venue that got it all wrong.

Looking at the male 'celebrities' dominating Thai TV I should think that AIDS is a bigger threat than Covid 19.

And therefore some folks will seek the venue out.

Further, given the arrogance of some of these celebrities they probably have an attitude and belief that they are EXEMPT from catching both AIDS and Covid 19.

They should have known better than  to go to a crowded bar at this time mixing with people they do not even know.

Did the venue have records of all who visited that night or the next ?
