Joy and Sorrayuth? Don't be ridiculous

So Rinlanee “Joy” Sripen has no legal recourse to stop the rumour that has emerged since she split with her boyfriend of four years, fellow actor Worarit “Not” Fuengarom.

And it’s a darned good rumour: Supposedly she’s now seeing Channel 3 news-talk host Sorrayuth Suthassanachinda.
No, it’s a “ridiculous” rumour, Joy argues. Fortunately she’s just published a book called “Ways to Win” and thus the chance to tell reporters that the gossips are crazy. She extends her compliments to the rumour’s gifted author for relying wholly on his or her imagination. “I’ve been in the industry for a decade and I have no record about being involved in this sort of thing,” she said.
So she hasn’t been out to dinner with Sorrayuth? He’s married, of course, but you never see his wife, so his occasional public appearances with other women do spark fresh gossip. Joy counters that their only “appearances” together are on the newsroom set, since she anchors the showbiz-news segment. She doesn’t even have his phone number, she says.
“I don’t have to say anything to his family or defend myself because everyone knows the truth, and especially his family. I think it’s better to just let it pass.” That’s certainly one way to win.

Air won’t share
Well okay, then. Let’s see if we get any further with Police Colonel Anchulee “Air” Teerawongpaisal, a physician and the deputy spokesperson for the National Police. Someone pretending to be Air has been posting photos on Facebook of her with different men, accompanied by curious captions. In one, she’s seen with a young male student. “I have no idea who the young guy is and I can’t even recall the photo,” Air counters. Another caption says, “Anyone who wants to approach me, please sign up and if I am heartbroken I will contact you.”
This is the type of routine nonsense movie stars always put up with, of course, but it’s pretty daring to take on a cop. “I suspect it’s someone I know, but I can’t figure out who it is,” Air says. Her assistant has gone on Facebook demanding that the impostor delete the offending entries. If they’re construed as defamation, Air could have the person charged under the Computer Act.
“I want this person to stop this activity immediately,” she says. “And I’d like to ask everyone on the social media to think twice before commenting or sharing anything that could land you in trouble. Otherwise you too could be a lawbreaker under the Computer Act and criminal law.”
If the impostor reads Soopsip (and who doesn’t?), we acknowledge your bravery in messing with a high-ranking police officer, but you really ought to take our advice and get those pictures and captions off Air’s page. And then get the hell off the social networks – at least for a little while.
