On your bike, Bad cab, Taped, Red shoe shenanigans

Peuy
Sexy actress/model Panward ''Peuy'' Hemmanee is worried about fan reaction after the media ran pictures of her posing provocatively on a motorcycle.

Peuy, who put on the sexy display as part of a motorcycle promotion at a city department store, was wearing her own pair of teeny-weeny cut-off denim shorts.

While draping herself on the seat of the motorcycle, the ''bike wash girl'' threw her right leg into the air, revealing what many viewers took to be naked flesh - or at best her underwear.

Media outlets ran the picture prominently, though some blurred or censored the naughty patch.

This has upset Peuy, who is worried fans jumped to conclusions about the flesh-coloured sighting between her shorts and her leg.

On Thursday, Khao Sod newspaper ran a picture of Puey posing on the bike. It blanked out the revealing patch, to spare readers' sensibilities.

The next day, Peuy was back on the front page, poring over a pair of tights. She brought them out to show the newspaper that on the day of the show, she took precautions.

She wore three layers underneath her shorts as she cavorted on the bike, just in case something slipped out.

''I did not do it just for the publicity. The promoter asked me to pose sexily, so I did. We rehearsed briefly on stage before the show. I wore my own shorts, but the production team provided the rest.

''Underneath, I wore three layers for protection - underwear, a pair of thick tights and a bathing costume,'' she said.

Since the newspaper had run censored pictures of her on the bike, she had received many calls from people wondering if she had actually shown more than was revealed.

With the naughty patch covered over, readers could not tell for themselves.

She wanted them to know that she was wearing three layers underneath, and never meant to show anything. -

Natalie
Actress Natalie Davis is insisting she was doped by a taxi driver, despite sceptics' claims on the internet that she made the whole thing up.

Natalie took the taxi on Jan 6. It picked her up from her home in Bang Khae to take her to a work assignment at the Army Club in Vibhavadi, Bangkok.

She claims the driver drugged her using hand cream, although no ill came of it, as she had the presence of mind to leave the taxi before the drug could take full effect.

The driver pulled out the hand cream as they were crossing the Sathon bridge on the way to the Din Daeng motorway. He rubbed it on his hands for 15 minutes.

''I talked to a friend on the phone throughout the journey. We joked about why he might be using hand cream, and my friend thought he might be gay.''

Natalie started to feel woozy. She suspected the air conditioning in the taxi was spreading around the scent of what could be a chemical, mixed with the hand cream, designed to make people faint.

Natalie turned to the window, to avoid the air conditioning. She had heard about taxi drivers attempting to dope passengers by using similar methods.

''When we reached the motorway, I demanded he keep left. He stayed in the middle lane, passing the turn-off. I knew I was in trouble, so demanded the taxi stop. I paid, and left the taxi promptly,'' she said.

Natalie left an account of what happened on her Facebook page, but has since been criticised on the internet for making the story up.

''Some critics claimed I was playing with my BB [BlackBerry smartphone] in the taxi so much that I became dizzy. It's not true _ I don't get car sick. I play with my BB all the time, and can even read in a taxi without feeling any ill-effect.

''In the taxi that day, I was busy putting on make-up.''

She did not want to make a complaint to the police, even though she knew the taxi's registration number.

The call centre she used said it was merely a go-between for drivers and passengers. The driver also knew her home address.

Natalie normally relies on her mother for transport, but since the incident had been reluctant to use taxis in any case, as she is afraid about what could happen next.

She made her ordeal public not to drum up publicity for herself but to serve as a warning to other taxi passengers. -

Guy
Actor Navapol ''Guy'' Lampoon says he will have to be more careful when talking on the phone, after a talent promoter secretly recorded a phone conversation in which the pair exchanged heated words.

Kai Songklod made a statement to police accusing Guy of threatening him by phone. When Guy (Best Supporting Actor) was asked about it, he denied knowing Kai.

However, he was forced to admit his lie when Kai released to the media a recording of the phone call. Guy is the son of Marsha Vadhanapanich, a Grammy singing star, and Nui Lampoon, formerly lead singer with the band Micro.

They are now threatening legal action against Kai for dragging their son's name through the mud.

Kai said he had been in the business for years, but Guy was a newcomer who should show his elders more respect.

He had used unpleasant language with him in a brief exchange about Monpat ''Bam'' Pisonyabut, a young woman in Kai's stable.

Guy, he said, had lied to fans about his relationship with actress Rujipas ''May'' Kokiart, his co-star in Best Supporting Actor.

The two had gone out socially and led fans to believe they were interested in each other romantically.

Kai said their supposed relationship was just a set up to promote the film. Guy's real interest lay in Bam, though Guy would not say as much publicly.

Responding to Kai's claims, Guy insisted he was closer to May than Bam, and that his friendship with May was not just a publicity stunt.

He denied seeing both women at the same time.

He was shocked when the recording emerged, as Kai had not told him he was recording their conversation.

"I lied because I didn't want the matter to escalate, and my mother had advised me to stay quiet for the time being.

''I shall have to think first before I speak on the phone next time.''

This was the first time since entering the industry as an actor that he had been hit with a media blitz.

''It is a little scary,'' he said.

Kai has since complimented Guy for his prompt apology, and praised his parents for swinging behind their son.

''Marsha and Nui are divorced, but have united to bring legal action against me in the interests of protecting their son. That's a natural reaction,'' he said, while adding that he was prepared to fight his corner if the dispute really did end up in court. So far, he had heard about the threat only in the media. -

A cabinet member and an entertainment label have fallen into an argument over alleged fraudster Nathan Oman.

The Ministry of Social Development and Human Security has called in for questioning RS Promotion, Nathan's former music label, as it pursues possible criminal and civil charges against the ex-singer for falsifying his application for a national youth award in 2006.

A ministry probe committee called in for questioning the two RS staff who had signed off Nathan's application.

They were summoned last Monday, but RS head Surachai Chetchotisak asked for more time. This upset the ministry, which accused RS of dragging out the affair.

Mr Surachai replied that his company had no reason to seek a delay, and was happy to cooperate with the probe. One of the staff had since left the company, and the other was busy that day.

Minister Issara Somchai said RS could present the evidence any time it likes without having to wait for the committee. He understood the documents include Nathan's signed acknowledgement of biographical details which he provided to RS.

These formed the basis of an RS application on his behalf for a youth award. Nathan won the award, but the ministry claims that Nathan falsified details of his name and age to win the prize. It has now taken the prize back, and is threatening legal action.

Lawyers for RS gave evidence to the committee last Friday, sparing the need for the staff to turn up.
