Selena Li’s Butt Was Touched by TVB Actor, Ricky Wong
TVB actor Ricky Wong Chung Tung (王俊棠) is accused of having sticky hands and touching Selena’s Li’s (李詩韻) butt. In the first episode of TVB’s horror variety program, Neighborhood Ghost Stories <區區有鬼故>, Ricky Wong’s hand was seen clearly on Selena’s behind. Selena was reportedly outraged by Ricky’s violation and walked off the filming set in a sour mood.
In the first episode, which was about a ghost occurrence that occurred in the now defunct East Town Theatre in Wan Chai, Selena played the role of a dim sum waitress who was groped in the butt by her customer (Ricky Wong). Before filming the scene, Selena had slipped on some extra padding to protect her bottom. When they were done with the scene, the director requested it to be filmed again so additional close-up shots could be taken. Assuming that they were only filming head shots, Selena removed her protective padding and reenacted the scene again with Ricky.
Perhaps due to miscommunication with the staff and with Selena, Ricky stayed in character and groped Selena’s butt again, only realizing then that Selena was not wearing her protective pad anymore.
An insider said that Selena’s face “immediately darkened” when Ricky touched her. The crew grew silent. Even Vincent Wong (王浩信), who was standing aside, grew stiff and sensed the awkward atmosphere. Ricky, however, did not immediately apologize and even joked to the crew, “Awesome, I got to touch a pretty lady’s butt today!”
Ricky: “I Am Willing to Apologize”
The director personally called up Ricky that same day to ask about what happened. The following day, Ricky’s wife visited the film set and apologized to Selena, who accepted the apology and continued to work with Ricky without much embarrassment.
In a later interview, Ricky explained that the groping was a misunderstanding. “In that scene I was supposed to touch her butt. I watched her wear the protective pad. However, I didn’t know she later removed it and that only close-up head shots were taken, so I just continued to do what I did earlier. Once I touched her, I knew I screwed up! But I already touched her, and there is no turning back, so I just continued on with the filming!”
Ricky was criticized for adding fuel to the fire when he joked about finally touching “the pretty lady’s butt”. Ricky said, “I’m always joking! But if she feels uncomfortable about what I said, I’m willing to apologize. I have no problem with that. I’m sincerely sorry for what happened. I didn’t mean it!”

Well, this kinda of thing happens all the time in showbiz. It probably wasn’t intentional but the supposed to be funny comments after he had done it was a bit humiliating for Selena.
Yes, it really isn’t a big deal………..this is showbiz man. If she feels her body is too good for this type of environment, get out of acting, cause her but will not be the first nor the last to be touched by some guy on the set.
Yuaida-get out of here, seriously any women or person in any profession or industry does not have to deal with this crap. being on set and an actress does not mean she should be touch anywhere, ur words are insulting and u, yes u Yuaida, ur comments are inappropriate and just shows the kind of person u are. one day when u get assaulted i don’t think u could take it this lightly.
Yauida, Just because she is an actress it doesn’t mean that she should allow people to touch her inappropriately.
Agree with Gretel, every women deserve respect and doesn’t matter what professions they may be in, no one should have their rights violated.
Predators have a sense of entitlement for groping and raping females. Shame on you! Hope you never get into showbiz.
Disagree with the rest of you but agree with Yuaida.
Yes, it’s not a big deal. And yes, while it is true that it’s not a good thing. She’s an actress and she has to be professional about it if they are already filming.
If she can’t be professional about it when things go wrong, then there’s no way she can become an even better actress
Ricky Wong is actually one of the well respect actor . I’ve watch GiGi Wong talk about him in a very good way. And he is kind of like her god bro. And he also very good friend with a lot of tvb veteran. I doubt his will do that in front of the crew! Maybe just misunderstanding !!
yeah. but in selena’s shoe…any girl will be offended if a man grope ur butt like that. u will feel lessen and taken advantaged as a girl. i mean, guy who is grope in the @ss by a stranger will feel the same way too (i hope O_O unless you have no self respect and have a mess up (up bringing childhood).
“Perhaps due to miscommunication with the staff and with Selena, Ricky stayed in character and groped Selena’s butt again, only realizing then that Selena was not wearing her protective pad anymore.”
Cheeky! Pun intended. That being said, could be a misunderstanding. Or a consummate actor. God forbid he is supposed to film touching her breasts ala Hollywood style. It is acting. Mistakes happened, much like how a female actress may accidentally grope a male actor. In this situation, I do think it is a mistake although his joke fell flat. Humour in this case could not diffuse the tensed atmosphere.
That moment could be Selena’s best acting moment since she need not act but was real!
Ha ha …… it’s probably very true!
@ Funn….LOL! I ‘LIKE’ this ….true indeed!
Sorry to say, accidents like this happens all the time during filming (maybe even worse). I remembered an actor while filming an action scene fell and touched the actresses breast/vjayjay by accident. They just laughed it off, and no awkwardness. I think Selena is just being tight in the behind…lol
This sounds like a miscommunication to me. Ricky’s joke was distasteful but he probably had the best intention to defuse the mistake and embarrasment for him. He probably hoped Selena would find it funny (along with his jokes), but she was hella embarrased -rightly and understandably so. Bottom line, he should just apologize, she should just accept, and everyone should move on. The show must go on right?!
But it sounds like he didn’t apologize directly to Selena. Why did his wife have to come to the set to apologize for him?
Prolly, the class c actress slapped the producer/director with her soiled butt pads and demanded Ricky to be removed from the cast
Lol awkward!
i can see it happening, a genuine mistaken
I hope Hong Kong never changes because I was raised a certain way and was allowed to keep my original nature and if Hong Kong media-wise denies our innate dislike and refusal to socially accept things that are okay in other cultures, I will give up on Hong Kong. I’m sure Koreans feel the same way – we recognize our being naturally against certain things that overall, globally we are supposed to be okay with.
I don’t think it’s okay for a guy to touch a girl’s butt (or vice versa) without permission in any culture or country! The point is, they were acting and Ricky thought she had her butt pads on. He didn’t know she took them off. He didn’t touch her unpadded butt intentionally for the purpose of touching her unpadded butt, at least that what he says. So, if he’s telling the truth then simply, an accident occurred, he made a joke (probably trying to break up the tension), and he apologised afterward. No one is saying Selena is suppose to be okay with people touching her butt, but she needs to realise that accidents happen and he didn’t touch her inappropriately deliberately.
Also, please don’t separate HK and Korean people with the rest of the world. We’re all people and chances are, there are people in HK and Korea who do things that YOU innately dislike and refuse to accept. Likewise, there are others who think like you in other parts of the world who are not from HK or Korea.
and to give credit where credit is due, the british allowed hong kong to keep that kind of snittyness and reinforced it in fact.
that lady’s first culture allowed hong kong chinese to grow up with a sense of self respect and an entitlement to their rights that I can still see in my mother
http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/world/europe/article4162389.ece
without being pro british, pro colonialism especially re unequal treaties and hong kong, let’s be firm and clear that the English did not hold HK and allow it to flourish and allow the great pride and self respect of the HK Chinese by engaging in
“Welsh wandering hands”
basically they allowed HK to not have a pro-Westerner, pro-mixed race idea of society so that reinforced Chinese culture for the long term (which is also smarter because it allows daywalkers who can see the positives of the West but are proChinese as well)
@ Cleo – wth are you talking about? o_O did you post in the wrong article?
I think he/she is giving us a history lecture about self-respect??
But what does that have to do with the article??? @_@
Strange lol
Cleo is always writing irrelevant things
pad for butt? hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha
That’s wat all actresses do……
Unless they really want them to touch their but
ham sup
I wished Ricky Wong would touch my butt. And more.
are you gay?
Hahaha what do you think?
OH MY GOSH!!!! ~~~~ seriously!!! U really think wrong!!!!<3
His “funny” comment was not needed.. That was pretty rude… But so awkward for them…
I so agree with u….
That comment just reflects in his character
It;s not gold -cladded. So touch-a-lttle-itsy-bit – what;s the big problem?
The line which cracked me up was “Vincent Wong…..grew stiff”…the sentence has double meaning?
wow…such awkward thing i know that Ricky Wong didn’t mean to do that!!!!!
Staying in character? Right!
God helps us if he ever pay a serial rapist.
Hahahaha. This story made my day.
It was just a misunderstanding and this grade c actress is making a big fuss over it? All hail the Attention Queen.
Pls girl. Ricky is a veteran actor and dealt with far more beautiful actresses in his acting career. Besides, do you think he will take advantage when a bunch of crew is looking and the camera still looking? Clearly, her brain resides on her ass cheeks
So you are implying that respect should be accorded only to beautiful actresses, while c-grade actresses have absolutely no rights if mistreated?
Poor selena… And people are laughing at her here and saying that scene will look very true. Talk about sympathy…
U r such a lecher….
lil bit of accident, and they made it like it was somebody’s dead…accident do happens. if she’s so protective, why remove the pad before her job is finished? i was at Singapore orchard road celebrating Christmas, a girl pressed her boobs on me bcos it was too crowded, pushing everywhere..& there’s many more happens the same dat nite. no 1 make a fuss bout it, even the girl get molested by me, accidently..IT WAS ACCIDENT..
“…even the girl get molested by me…”
Assuming you’re the one that is molested by a guy….See what do you feel?
What’s all the fuss about? As I read it in the article, it is written in the script that she would get groped in the butt by a fellow actor.
What is that special butt-pad, anyway?
