Fizz puzzled by links to negative stories
HARIAN Metro reported that actor Datuk Fizz Fairuz (pic) is confused as to why his name is always linked to negative stories.
“Is it written on my forehead that if there’s anything to do with vice, I am the person involved?” he said.
Fizz said he was not pleased that his name had been linked to a case of a Datuk Seri, who was involved in a khalwat (close proximity) case in Pulau Perhentian.
The actor said he was mulling legal action against those spreading the news and had given the culprits one week to issue a public apology.
“What made me angry is that the person (an Instagram user) uploaded a photo of the news report.
“That is slander without investigating and they linked me to this false news,” he added.
