 Jackie Chan apologized Sunday for his drunken disruption at Taiwan 
singer-songwriter Jonathan Lee's concert last week after the actor unexpectedly 
climbed on stage and verbally sparred with annoyed audience members.

 |  Chan was a scheduled concert guest last Sunday but showed up unannounced on 
stage the following evening. 
 His surprise appearance was filmed by an audience member, apparently by cell 
phone, and posted on the video-sharing Web site Youtube.com. After Monday's 
incident, the Ming Pao Daily News quoted Chan saying on stage that he was drunk. 
 The three-minute film showed a surprised Lee asking Chan, "How come you came 
up?" 
 Viewers heckled Chan yelling "pull him off stage," "go away," and "you're so 
annoying." Chan then responded with a Cantonese insult. 
 
 
 
 Preparing to sing, Chan motioned 
Lee's band to start playing then abruptly stopped the music with "shut up." He 
then walked up to one of the musicians and said, "You're quite defiant, starting 
to play before I say 'one, two, three.' Where are you from?"

 |  The crowd eventually applauded after Lee and Chan start singing a duet. 
 Meeting with reporters after a promotional event for his upcoming action 
comedy "Rob-B-Hood," Chan was initially reluctant to address the incident, but 
later he apologized. 
 "I was wrong. I shouldn't play with my friendship with Jonathan Lee in 
public," Chan said. "I apologize to Jonathan Lee and I apologize to the audience 
that night." 
 Asked about the video footage of his disruption, he said: "I don't care. I'm 
not a saint. I'm an ordinary person." 
 Separately, he said "Rob-B-Hood," in which Chan plays a character who must 
protect a baby from kidnappers, is currently wrapping up post-production and 
will be released in Hong Kong on September 29. 
 Chan said he was set to film "Rush Hour 3" this summer. He said filming will 
take place in France, New York and Los Angeles. The actor also said he will make 
a movie called "Shinjuku Story" next year. He didn't give details.
