Gillian Chung Yan-tung may have had her sex life splashed across the internet in a 2008 photo scandal, but the singer-actress says she only filmed her first screen kiss recently with co-star William Chan Wai-ting.

Chung (left) stars a new film called Ex, directed by young Hong Kong director Heiward Mak Hei-yan. The film depicts an entangled relationship between a pair of ex-lovers played by Chung and Chan, and there are intimate scenes between the two characters in the film.

Looking trim and refreshed with her new bob hairstyle at a promotional event for the film this week, Chung gave her co-star's smooching skills a high rating.

'I gave my first screen kiss to William,' Chung said, laughing. 'He's actually a good kisser.'

But the kiss hasn't drawn as much attention as film's title, apparently. Some suggest it's a dig at Chung's earlier romance with Edison Chen Koon-hei, which was exposed in the sex scandal in January 2008, prompting Chung to disappear from the limelight for a year.

The film's producer, Chapman To Man-chak, also joked that Chung should have lots of experience to share thanks to her relationship with Chen.
