Thai singer apologises after controversial comments on Siam Paragon shooting

[snoop1130]

 

Thai singer Ning Eileen faced a backlash after making controversial comments about a violent incident at a Siam Paragon mall in Bangkok that resulted in the death of two women and injuries to five people. Her remarks, seen by many as insensitive, triggered a wave of criticism, forcing the 30 year old singer to issue a public apology.

 

The tragic event, which took place three days ago, sparked widespread discussions and expressions of grief. Several public figures have addressed the issue, but Ning Eileen’s comments deviated from the general sentiment. Her post, tagged #SiamParagonShooting, read…

 

“I would have shot more than that. This world is too crowded, it’s about time.”

 

Following the fierce backlash, Ning Eileen was compelled to delete the post and issue an apology on Twitter.

 

“I must apologise for what I have done. It was all my fault. I apologise to my label, my fans, and everyone who saw my post. I am sorry for disappointing you and causing you to be affected by this issue. I regret what happened, and I take full responsibility for all the wrongdoing.”

Jeez, what an idiot. Not sure you can wave away that sort of comment apart from admitting she is young and stupid.

One would have to be outrageously stupid and completely disconnected from reality to make such moronic comment so juxtaposed from the emotional temperature of the nation.

Bit of a confusing case, 30 but only listed as joining GMM academy Dec 2021. material on Thaidol Music an odd sub division of Grammy. Don't like this sort of sugary pap, listed as luktung, I would say it does not deserve to be called that and more like string, yuk.

Come on Eileen !

I doubt it will happen but people should boycott her music.

What an incredibly silly thing to say.

Stupid is the keyword.

A 5 minute dip and then back to normal, the majority of her followers would have the attention span of a gold fish.

She is 30. Not a kid. The only reason she apologized is because she could be dropped by sponsors and record company.

I can see why her "lesbian porn" video is popular, and now she is "infamous" and that will

do in this world. "In future everybody will be world famous/infamous for 15 min"

It might be a nice gesture if her management and record company severed all contact with her. Let's not forget too that this imbecile admitted to a desire to kill, to murder. Another mentally ill person allowed to roam the streets.

Deportation and ban!

 

Oh, wait...

Bye Bye Future Career

[Sydebolle]

Yet another pristine example of today's Generation Z - the label should terminate her contracts and send her back to work as a cashier at 7/11 or weigh bananas at the fresh fruit scale of Big C ???? Despicable

yeah, this.

I cannot imagine making a statement like this as a person in her position with the media. Guns are a national cancer in the United States and the same situation would exist here in Thailand if they allowed easy access to firearms. I’m happy to live in a country where shootings are rare.

[fusion58]

That’s one way to grab some free publicity when your vacuous, simpleton “music” isn’t generating enough interest on its own merits, I suppose.

 

Talk about a socially retarded pinhead... ????

[sidneybear]

Celebs are often as thick as mince. They should keep their mouths shut.

[Deserted]

The record company told her to apologise or she would be kicked out probably.

Presuming you live in Thailand, they actually are not.

How do you even walk that comment back ????

 

Agree, over populated .... but yikes ????  That would be a career ender in the west.

Easily done with or without the idiotic comments of her, the music is the pits.

At 30 years old, she is almost middle aged.

Has there actually been any response from her record company or managment?
